The reason why the odds for Saunders winning by way of knock out is very high is that it is very unlikely to happen. It may happen as unexpected results do happen in boxing sometimes but you cannot be counting on that with your money. Even that decision win for Saunders is unlikely to happen.
But there are always people who will bet on certain fighters even if they are underdogs. It happens always. May be they are huge fans of the fighter, they are simply counting on the possibility of an upset, or they are trying to make big money by risking.
Upsets are still happening in any contact sports we have just seen some upsets in MMA and Saunders have a good knock out ratio we cannot rule out any possibility of a knockout and if you are betting for Saunders to win by knock out now that's a real gamble, both fighters knows the importance of this match, they will come to prepare and give the spectators a big surprise, I love to see Canelo fight again because every fight for Canelo is a showcase of a new skill.
Canelo always have it and if his opponents lowered his guard, surely this figther will attack and take you down with a KO.
if both fighters are prepared for this fight, i will bet on canelo here to win this fight. now if the odds are not attractive who will win on this fight, just bet on the winning method odds. canelo by KO is still at 1.89 or by decision at 2.24 rather than the 1.12 that you will get if you will place on canelo as the winner.
betting is a indeed a risk because we dont know how they will perform inside the ring. but that's the beauty of betting, right?
I'm looking at the odds, the under 10.5 is attractive so I might go with this bet.
Maybe Saunders really trained for this fight but we all know that Canelo is in his prime right now and it's hard to see who are going to touch him at this point.
Even Canelo by KO is good @1.91 or even Canelo by decision @2.28. So better pick the best odds.
