Boxing news: ******** Commission launch investigation into Dave Allen vs Dorian Darch knockout over ‘fix’ allegations
Dave Allen’s third-round knockout win over Dorian Darch on Saturday night is being investigated amid claims of a possible fix.
The British Boxing Board of Control and the ******** Commission have confirmed to SunSport that they’ve begun an investigation into allegations of su****ious betting activity after bookmakers notice irregular activity.
Allen’s win was somewhat unusual as he appeared to coast for the first couple of rounds before attacking in round three, with Darch saying, ‘come on,’ before being floored.
The third-round stoppage for Allen was initially priced at 9-2 with William Hill but was so heavily backed that it ended at evens.
It’s understood that SkyBet were the first bookmaker to notice a spike and they alerted their competitors.
Then, a couple of hours before the fight, William Hill encountered a su****ious surge in bets on the third at a series of high-street stores across the country.
