Bout Winner (Three-Way)

This is the most popular market when it comes to boxing. It’s quite simple, we can back either Paul or Tyson to win. The reason we also have ‘Three-Way’ is because a draw is also available. 

A draw is always bigger odds, (8/1 in this case), given the rarity of the outcome. If you pick a fighter to win via this market, they can win either on points or any other method, and your bet will be settled as a winner. 

Method of victory

This is slightly more specific than backing the fight winner as you, as the title suggests, have to nail the correct method of victory. The markets available are: Paul to win on points, Paul to win by TKO/KO/DQ/Technical Decision, Tyson to win on points, Tyson to win by TKO/KO/DQ/Technical Decision or a draw. 

If you back your fighter to win by points and they KO their opponent, or vice versa, your bet will not be settled as a winner. It’s as simple as that, with the benefit being slightly better odds by backing the method of victory rather than just the winner.  

Round Betting

Another popular boxing market and one that is relatively simple to understand. For Tyson v Paul, you are able to pick a fighter to win in a specific round. You can get long odds on this market, for example Paul is priced at 12/1 to win in round three because of the difficulty in backing a specific win. Also, you are eliminating the decision market and the draw, meaning only a knockout, technical knockout, disqualification or technical decision are valid - as long as they take place in your chosen round! Iron Mike is 12/1 to knock his opponent out in round one in the early hours of Saturday morning. 

Will The Fight Go The Distance?

A binary selection and one of the simplest boxing markets to bet on. This category is always divided into Yes or No. If the fight stops inside the distance, a No bet is paid out whether the fight is won by knockout, technical knockout, disqualification, technical decision or goes to a no contest before going the distance.

 A Yes bet will require the entire scheduled distance of the fight to play out. Tyson v Paul is 6/4 to go the distance. Place a PickYourPunt bet (2/1+) on Jake Paul v Mike Tyson and get 50% of your stake back in Free Bets if it loses. (Credited within 24hrs)
