when did the fight officially end? it's kind of like baseball innings. over 7.5 rounds is actually 1minute 31 seconds into the 8th round.

waiting for olympic to fix it myself



fight ended AT 1:26 OF the 8th round

In boxing parlance, that means 1:34 seconds of the 8th round (same as football, they reference the time on the clock).



Since English is not the first language of many at the sportsbooks, some (Oly) assumed "OF" means the same as "INTO" which it deos not.

Getting kinda pissed it is taking so long to fix

still up in the air at many books

Tradesports, Jamaica, Carib, still have un 7.5 graded as a loss

Intertops, Pinnacle, WWTS, V-Wager, Gibraltar graded (correctly I assume) un 7.5 as a win


Thanks,

UNDER is a weiner

Was the first time in a long time I have been on the right side of these close calls

Klitschko gets the TKO at 1:26 of round 8

R1
R2
R3
R4
R5
R6
R7
R8 - up until 1:30 of R8 the under is a weiner

(ps - the fight started R7 so 5D graded that correct)

I disagree: 126 is the time left in the round, meaning 1:34 had transpired already: rounds don't have to be 3min, plus you don't want to burn spectator's brain cells by making them subtract so much...

especially in games where the clock winds down.

I snet an email to a boxing site used by the books, hopefully get a response tomorrow.

Remember Chaves stopping Taylor at 10 seconds? They'd have called it at 2:50 instead-- no way.

Tradesports

Tradesports graded OVER 7.5 as the winner. Everywhere else seems to have graded UNDER 7.5 as the winner, including places which originally had it the other way.

.....

When the fight was stopped there was 1:34 left in the round. It really shouldn;t have been that complicated. It was a clear under.

Now I am really confused.
Cant geet one book to agree with your analysis.

Contacted an online boxing magazine, MaxBetting who says there was 1:26 remaining in the round so the over wins

CBC reported fight was stopped 86 seconds into the round (only article not copied fromthre AP story) so the under wins

fight is to be replayed on HBO saturday (not sure if this or next).

Hopefully I can get the books on the same page.

I saw the fight, under is the winner, 1:34 left on the clock, so only 1:26 had been fought on the 8th round
