Re: Betting Boxing Question
I understadn your thinking, but
10.5 means if the fight last longer then 10.5 rounds the over bet wins. As soon as the bell rings FOR the 11th round the over wins. If fighter gets knocked down at the end of the 10th and makes it to his feet before the 10 count and returns to his corner. The rounds is over, BUT THE BET IS NOT GOOD BECAUSE THE 11th HAS NOT STARTED YET. If his corner were to stop the fight (between rounds 10 and 11). It is a TKO at 3:00 of round 10, not a TKO at 0:00 of round 11. Hence the OVER 10.5 bet loses.
I hope this helps.
