Definition

A fight that ends without an official winner or loser, usually due to an accidental foul or an unforeseen event (like an injury from an accidental headbutt) before a certain point in the fight. A no contest (NC) means the result is nullified.

Formula

Example

In Round 3, an accidental clash of heads cuts Fighter A badly, and he cannot continue. If the bout is ruled a **no contest**, all bets on the fight’s outcome are typically voided (refunded) unless a specific rule says otherwise (e.g., some books require a certain number of rounds for action).
