A friend of mine linked me to a football (soccer) forum that he uses and sent me a screen shot of someone that put up a post 3 hours before Eubank's fight tonight that his opponent will be stopped in the 4th round and to put a bet on it. The tip come from JJ McDonagh's cousin apparently. His opponent didn't come out for the 4th, which pays out as a 4th round knockout.

this, but f#ck his cousin for spilling hte beans.
this probably happens more than people think, especially with fights off of TV. guys say, "i'll give it my all for a few rounds and then call it off or find a soft spot on the canvas and lay down."
100% it does. Especially with club fighters who don't make a livable wage.
He probably took the fight with an injury and told his cousin he was gonna quit

So we're just going to ignore how Eubank's opponent barely got touched then went down like a sack of potatoes and had a seizure before getting up like nothing happened when he realized how ridiculous it looked.
Happened in like the first or second round lol. He was looking for a way out from the opening bell.
EDIT: It was a delayed reaction too now that I just thought about it, the broadcast team seemed confused lol.
I got paid out for a 3rd round stoppage. Has anyone been paid for a 4th round stoppage?
someone on that forum said they got paid, so i have no idea.
i've read conflicting things that you'll get paid out due to 3 rounds being completed. and some saying it counts as a 3rd round knockout. i guess it depends on the exact bet made.
Either way, it looks pretty shady that people are posting inside info from family members about 4th round stoppage and he quits before the 4th.
No wonder Eubank seemed genuinely annoyed like something was up, he didn't buy the injury excuse. i think if you're an experienced fighter, you can probably tell if your opponent had a genuine shoulder injury or not.
Bookies pay out for 4th round stoppage because 3 are completed.
some people were saying they got paid out from the fight after putting the bet on.
it's the safer a way of hiding it, rather than take an obvious dive in the round. Just say your shoulder is gone.

Fight ended in the third round as he didnt come out for a 4th?

Your screenshot shows that the time of the post was 17:04, which is 5:04. If it's Eastern time, then it was posted after the fight.
no. it's UK time, from a UK football forum. The Eubank fight was 20:00 UK time. The post was made 17:04 UK time...
