I laid some cash on Simon Kean in this fight. Kean won via countback, but my book graded my wager as a push. The book rules don't explicitly mention anything about how such a result is graded, though I would expect that a win is a win. I rarely bet amateur boxing, and I haven't run into this situation before. What's the standard protocol here?

#2A push is probably standard here. He didn't really win the fight, he was just awarded the win. Hard to find the rules on this, but if this wasn't a tourney this bout would have been a draw.Comment -

#3Thanks for the response, Kaladarus. That seems sensible to me.
However, I had Khytrov in this match today, and it was graded as a loss: http://www.london2012.com/boxing/eve...401/index.html
Looks like it's time to ask my book what they're doing!
EDIT: Just heard back; any fight with a tied score is graded as a push, regardless of the declared winner. The Khytrov fight was graded incorrectly, and they've since fixed it.Comment
