    There's a lot of confilicting accounts of wether the ref stopped it before the count. And my bookie isn't paying out.

    It's a KO.

    A TKO is when the ref stops the fight. A KO is when the fighter gets knocked down and could not get up before the count of 10. DD did not get up by the count of 10, so it's should be a KO.

    I always thought if you decide not to get up, it's a TKO. If you can't get up before the 10 count, it's a KO.

    DD obviously could have gotten up, but chose not to.

    The choice of the fighter doesn't really matter. I think it's pretty clear cut. If the fighter doesn't get up by the count of 10, it's a KO.
