Mayweather wins by decision

who are they fooling or am i missing something??

Most likely the book took a big bet on Mayweather Decision so they adjusted the price down but haven't adjusted the Fight Goes Distance prop down yet.

You can win by decision but not go the distance. If there is a accidental head butt and the fight is stopped after 4 rds it's still a win by decision after they go to the judges cards. Hence many books specify in props 12 round decision or just decision. Also why books specify by KO, TKO, or DQ vs. Inside the distance. You can win an inside the distance bet by decision or by TKO, KO, or DQ making it a slightly better bet. obviously win by decision gives you more outs than only win by 12 rd decision.

thank you very much for the detailed explanation. I thought I might be missing something because it seemed odd.
