    I'd say under.

    Arreola can only fight going forwards, he has no plan B, he only fights one way. Mitchell will very likely get stopped early, his simply isn't durable enough to withstand Arreola's power. Though of course Mitchell hits hard himself so I wouldn't write him off completely he has a punchers chance.

    That's not how the over under betting works, halfway into round 6 would give a result as KO6 which is over 5.5.

    I don't think the fight will go past 2 or 3. Arreola is going to go go right at Mitchell's Glass Jaw with pressure.

    mitchell's gonna stop areola within 7.he will start cautious but throwing big then tying chris up.mitchell knows this is it for him.they boh know this is do or die for the big bucks.everytime areola fights someone that can bang he gets dropped.mitchell will finish areola once he has him hurt.we all know mitchells chin is kinda soft but im going out on a limb a bit, but i think mitchell pulls it off.

    The 5.5 thing cracks me up, but it does make perfect sense. :yep


    I can't remember there ever being such an Over/Under pushed up so early in a 12-rounder. :!:

    Nope
    Its 5.5 rounds which means 5 and a half rounds which is half way into the 6th

    They have to look at the time of the stoppage not the round number

    That could still be either over 5.5 rounds (halfway mark of the 6th) or under.

    :lol: @ telling someone they don't know how betting works, and then proceeding to deep-throat your own foot.

    5.5 rounds = "five and a half rounds".

    1:30 of the 6th.

    1:29 of the 6th is Under 5.5 (five and a half) rounds. 1:31 of the 6th is Over 5.5 (five and a half) rounds.

    My pick is Arreola KO 2. But I do think that Mitchell and the Over are smart bets for the money.

    If that was the case, if a fight ended exactly 1.30 of the 6th, they would have to cancel all bets because that is neither over or under 5.5
    I think it may vary from bookie to bookie, but I know that is how it works with some.

    Whats the chances of that
    If it was your it would juet be over 5 rounds

    Your probably thinking of other sports because they cant get half way in between
