Did Michael Pass anoounce 10 or 12 rounds for Audrey v Wilder Fight?

Discussion in 'British Boxing Forum' started by The Hayemaker, Apr 28, 2013.


  1. Betunfair have voided my first round KO by Wilder bet stating that the market was incorrectly loaded as being 10 rounds when their data source retrospectively found it that it was a 12 round fight.

    Can anyone confirm what Michael Pass announced pre fight.

    Fight was changed from 10 to 12 over the last few days. Bookies clearly didn't get the message. Very short notice for them to sort it out but for them to deny your your cash is ****ing ridiculous.
     
  4. Thanks for the responses

    Betfair used to be loved by customers but most now would use the words incompetent and greedy with their 20% to 60% taxes on winners

    that is ridiculous a KO1 is a KO1 in a 4,6,8,10,12 or 400 round fight.

    does this mean that people who bet via betfair who lost got there stake returned?

    I had £200 on it with a friend at 4/1. Jumped around like idiots when it happened. Only to see the bet voided. Absolute joke by betfair this, and will be taking it up with them on monday.

    (side note, we had round 2 backed for insurance.... They didn't void that bet and took the money!!!!)

    they should be lined up against the wall these greedy robbing ****s, if you stole 50 quid from a shop they would probably give you 5 years but these ****s get away scot free

    We got our £200 stake on the R1 KO back but not R2 & obviously no winnings.

    Did it happen with any other bookmakers?
     
  10. Yes they voided all bets except for the match odds markets.

    I'm pushing betfair help desk on twitter for a real answer. :-(
     
  12. You should be able to trust a bookie to get the fight schedule correct 10 mins before the fight.

    I would avoid these tossers

    Betfair Boxing Rules

    All individual bout markets will be settled according to the official result of the relevant governing body immediately after the end of the fight, regardless of any subsequent disqualification or amendment to the result (except if an amendment is announced within 24 hours of the initial settlement of the relevant market in order to correct an error in tallying the points or in order to correct an error in reporting the result).

    If a fight is abandoned, cancelled or postponed and not completed within three days of the scheduled start date, or a boxer is withdrawn or substituted before the first round bell, all bets will be void.

    If a boxer retires before the start of a round, fails to answer the bell, or is disqualified for any reason between rounds, the fight will be deemed to have finished at the end of the previous round.

    If one of the boxers is disqualified they will be deemed a loser.

    If the scheduled duration of the fight is altered in time or number of rounds then all bets will be void, with the exception of bets on match odds markets which will stand.

    If the scheduled venue is changed after a bet is placed so that the new venue is changed to a venue in a different country then all bets will be void. For all other changes to the scheduled venue bets will stand.

    If a fight is declared a ‘no contest’ then all bets will be void.

    If the fight is declared a ‘Technical Draw’ it will be settled as a ‘Draw’.

    dirty *******s!!!
     
  14. Betfair make their money from taking commission on profits.

    How exactly have they profited from voiding the whole market?

    Ah, I see.

    Get on to them about that.
