    OK... so if one thinks that Kovalev wins tonight by stoppage, why wouldn't one play these two wagers:

    Kovalez wins in round 1-6 @ +204
    Kovalez wins in round 7-12 @ +192

    Plus odds on both, just split your bet.

    The best odds on Kovalev by KO/TKO/DQ is -182.


    Am I missing something?

    Well if you win one bet you lose the other, so that kind of offsets your winnings for one thing.

    Might as well drop money on each fighter to win ... you'll win a bet either way.
