Knockout (KO)
A fight-ending outcome where a boxer is unable to get up from the canvas within the referee’s 10-count after being knocked down. A clean KO results in an immediate victory for the fighter who delivered the knockdown. In betting, “win by KO” typically includes technical knockouts as well, unless specified.
In round 5, Fighter A lands a huge punch that floors Fighter B for over 10 seconds – a **knockout** victory for Fighter A. Bettors who took Fighter A by KO/TKO win their prop bets. Officially, the result is recorded as “KO5” (win by KO in Round 5).
