Walks you down and hits like a dropped anvil. Twelve rounds is the one thing he has never had to do.
Real maths. Real odds. No real fighters.
Every price on this site is computed from a boxing match being simulated in your browser right now. No bookmaker feed, no real fighters, no real fixtures, and nothing here can be bet on.
Four fights, all running at once, all priced from their own position. Pick one and it goes in the ring.
The fight below is being simulated as you watch. Every price beside it is four thousand finishes of this fight, from exactly where it stands, counted up.
Fair prices, so the three add to exactly 100%. A bookmaker's would add to more, and the difference is theirs. The tools below will measure it on any market you like.
No tipsters, no bylines. The only thing on this site with an opinion about the fight is the model, and this is it showing its working.
You have seen that banner a thousand times. We have no bookmaker deals and nothing to sell you, so instead of the offer, here is the arithmetic behind it — and the answer is never £40.

The mock-up this site was drawn from had a world rankings panel with real champions and made-up ranking points. This is the honest version of that panel.

Not one of these is a real boxer, and that is the point. The engine attaches punch statistics, knockdown counts and win prices to whoever it is given. Against a real name those would be a fabricated record of a real person's ability, so every fighter here is invented.
Walks you down and hits like a dropped anvil. Twelve rounds is the one thing he has never had to do.
Behind the jab, takes a shot, still throwing in the twelfth. Needs to survive the first four.
Throws less than anyone on the card and lands more. Gets hit cleanly maybe twice a fight, and it shows.
The hardest man on the card to hurt and the easiest to hit. Wins rounds by being there in round eleven.
Named for the clock because he fights to one. Not a puncher; has never needed to be.
Changes stance mid-combination and carries the division's biggest left hook from either side of it.
The highest work rate on the card and the best engine. Two-minute rounds suit her exactly.
Gives away two rounds working out the range, then takes the next three off you.
Ten-point must, three judges, and you. Score the fight in the ring round by round and see how your card compares with the three the engine is keeping. Knockdown deductions are applied for you, because that part is a rule rather than an opinion.

This is the one part of the page that is not simulated, computed or invented. These are how professional boxing actually works, and the engine above obeys every one of them.
A men's world-title fight is twelve rounds of three minutes. It used to be fifteen. The change followed the death of Duk Koo Kim after a fifteen-round title fight in 1982: the WBC cut its championship distance the following year and the other bodies had all followed by the end of the decade.
A women's world-title fight is ten rounds of two minutes. That is twenty minutes of boxing against a man's thirty-six, and it changes the sport rather than shrinking it: fewer punches land per round, so rounds are closer, judges split more often, and the draw is a much shorter price. The opener on this card is scored over ten twos and you can watch that happen in the prices.
The winner of a round must get ten points. The loser gets nine, and drops a further point for every knockdown. Judges are told to find a winner, which is why a 10-10 round is scored in well under one round in a hundred. A twelve-round shutout is 120-108.
Three judges score independently and the fight is decided by how their cards fall: unanimous if all three agree, split if one dissents, majority if one has it level. Two level cards is a majority draw, one card each way plus a level one is a split draw.
A fighter who is down has ten seconds, and the count does not begin until the other fighter is in a neutral corner. Beating the count is not the end of it: the referee then has to decide whether the fighter is fit to carry on, and that decision ends more fights than the count itself does.
Championship gloves are eight ounces up to and including welterweight and ten ounces above it. The heavier glove spreads the impact over a larger area — it protects the hands inside it at least as much as the head it lands on.
The WBA, WBC, IBF and WBO each sanction their own world champion in each division, which is why a division can hold four champions at once. A fighter who holds all four at the same time is undisputed. It is rare, and it rarely lasts, because the bodies order their champions to defend against their own mandatory challengers.
Professional boxing runs from minimumweight at 105 lb to heavyweight, which has no upper limit, in seventeen steps. The gaps are not even: seven pounds between light heavyweight and cruiserweight's twenty-five, because the divisions were added piecemeal over a century rather than designed.
Five steps, all of them running in your browser while you read this.
Work rate sets how many go out, accuracy against the other fighter's defence sets how many land. Calibrated so two evenly matched fighters connect with about 31% of what they throw, which is what professional punch statistics actually show.
Every power punch that lands gets its own knockdown check: this fighter's power against that fighter's chin, multiplied up by the damage already on board. Being behind is dangerous, which is true.
Most knockdowns are beaten. Most fights that end early end because the referee waves it off, not because somebody is counted out — about three to one, which is the shape of the real record books.
Each judge sees the round through their own noise, so clear rounds are scored the same way by all three and close ones are where the cards come apart. That is where split decisions come from here, and there.
From exactly where the fight stands — this round, this damage, these three cards — it finishes the fight four thousand more times and counts what happened. The price is one over the share. Nothing else.
Reference, not news. No dates and no bylines, because there is no newsroom here.
Boxing is harder to model than darts, because there is no clean unit. A leg of darts either ends or it does not; a round of boxing ends in the opinion of three people. So a boxing model has to do two separate jobs: work out what physically happens in the ring, and then work out how three judges would score it.
This one does both. Punches thrown come from work rate; punches landed come from accuracy against the other fighter's defence; each landed power punch gets its own knockdown check against the opponent's chin and the damage already on board. Then three judges score the round through their own noise, which is where split decisions come from.
To price it, the model takes the fight exactly where it stands — this round, this damage, these three scorecards — and finishes it four thousand more times. The share of those finishes that each outcome takes is its probability. One divided by that is the fair decimal price. That is the entire method, and it is why a knockdown moves the number while you are watching: it genuinely changes the position.
A bookmaker does the same job with real fighters and real data, and then adds a margin.
A drawn fight needs the cards to fall level, and there are several ways for that to happen: all three judges level, two level, or one judge each way with the third level. The chance is not small when two fighters are genuinely evenly matched, which is why the draw on a 50-50 twelve-rounder prices around 20.0 rather than the 100.0 most people would guess.
It moves for reasons you can watch. A division where fights end early has a shorter distance price and therefore a longer draw: a fight that finishes in the sixth cannot be drawn. The heavyweight main event on this card opens with the longest draw price of the four for exactly that reason, and it shortens every round both men stay upright.
It moves the other way for a ten-round fight. Fewer rounds means an even split is more likely, and two-minute rounds are closer rounds, so the women's opener carries the shortest draw on the card. None of that is typed in. It falls out of counting.
Convert a decimal price to an implied probability by dividing one by it. A price of 2.00 implies 50%. Do that for every outcome in a market and add the results together. If the market carried no margin the total would be exactly 100%.
It never is. A three-way boxing market priced 1.57, 21.0 and 2.50 implies 63.7%, 4.8% and 40.0%, which adds to 108.5%. Those 8.5 percentage points are the overround, and they are the bookmaker's expected cut of everything staked on the fight.
This matters more in boxing than in most sports, because the draw sits in the middle of the market soaking up margin that nobody notices. It matters more again on a method-of-victory market, where five prices each carry a slice. The tools below will do the sum.
Bet £10, get £40 in free bets. The £40 is not £40. When you place a free bet the stake is not returned with the winnings, so a £40 free bet at evens pays £40 rather than the £80 a £40 cash bet would. At a fair price the free bet is worth its face value times the chance of losing — which is the number the calculator on this page works out.
The consequence is the opposite of what most people do with them: a free bet is worth more at a long price than a short one, because the winnings are the only part you keep. The same £40 is worth £20 at 2.00, £30 at 4.00 and £13.33 at 1.50.
Then subtract what the qualifying bet cost you. You have to stake £10 at the bookmaker's own price to unlock the offer, and that price carries the margin, so on average the qualifying bet is not free either. The calculator does both halves.
