If the over/under is 1.5 rounds, what happens if the fight ends during the 2nd round? Does under win? thanks

[Kaladarus]

Depends on the time 2:31 is over 2:29 is under and 2:30 is push.

[yisman]

Gotcha.


So this bet:


9:00p
(Takanori "The Fireball Kid" Gomi vs Eiji Mitsuoka) - Fight to complete 2 full rounds


Both must fight for action

Yes (Fight completes 2 full rounds)
-180




No (Fight does not complete 2 full rounds)
+140








is different than an over/under 1.5 rounds bet.

[Kaladarus]

Fight must go the full 2 rounds to win for the YES. Any stoppage before the end of the second round is a win for NO. If there is a corner stoppage after the second round you would win the YES, since the second round completed.

You are basically giving yourself an extra 2 and a half minutes with the 2 full round bet.

[Kaladarus]

It's the same bet as over/under 2 basically.

[yisman]

great, thanks. I was just comparing odds at different books, and then I realized that they may not be offering the same bet here.

Pinnacle does the .5 round bets, while Bovada offers bets on will fight complete X rounds.

Check the book's rules too. Because some say for the "completes 2 rounds," both fighters have to answer the bell for the 3rd.
