Boxing Match Betting

In boxing, there are various international bodies that can officially award a world title or championship to a boxer, such as the World Boxing Association, the World Boxing Organisation, the World Boxing Council or the International Boxing Federation. In some cases, a world title may be unified, or there may be different champions in each weight class.

But what are the weight classes in boxing? To make the sport fairer, boxers are divided according to their weight, thereby avoiding any advantages or disadvantages arising from it. So we have 17 weight classes, ranging from the lightest to the heaviest, which starts at 90.7 kg and upwards.

Among the best fighters on the planet, we can find great names such as Oleksandr Usyk from Ukraine, Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua from England, Mexico’s Saúl “Canelo” Álvarez, Naoya Inoue from Japan, Jesse “Bam” Rodríguez and Shakur Stevenson from the United States, as well as Artur Beterbiev from Russia. But in every weight class, there are top-class boxers and other challengers looking for a chance to claim the championship belt.

Boxing odds

In the world of sports betting on boxing, there are many different markets you can explore to make money. Some are straightforward, whilst others are more complex. Here we explain the most important ones:

Winner and Winner (No Draw)

Decide which of the two boxers will win. With the exception of some title fights, boxing usually features clear favourites and the odds in this market aren’t always the best. You can also bet on ‘No Draw’, which means there are only two options and, in the event of a draw, the bet is void.

Fight duration

There are two ways to bet on the duration of the fight. The first is to decide whether the fight will go the full distance or not; in other words, if the bout is scheduled for 10 rounds, whether it will go the full distance or end early. The other is to bet on Over and Under. The line will shift between rounds, and a decision is made based on the line and the odds.

Winning method

This is one of the most popular markets in boxing, as it regularly offers the best odds. In this case, you must choose who will win the fight and also the manner in which they will do so – for example, by knockout, technical knockout, unanimous decision, split decision or disqualification.

Final round

Although this is one of the most complex bets, it certainly offers the best returns for punters. Once again, you need to predict which fighter will win the bout, but you must also correctly predict the round in which the victory will be secured. Here you’ll find odds of 101.00, 126.00, 151.00, etc.
