Haven't a clue.

Submitted my answer in another post.

4. What fruit has its seeds on the outside?
Strawberries? I'm going with strawberries.

5. In many liquor stores, you can buy pear brandy, with a real pear
inside the bottle. The pear is whole and ripe, and the bottle is
genuine; it hasn't been cut in any way. How did the pear get inside the bottle?
No clue. Grow the pear in the bottle?

6. Only three words in standard English begin with the letters ' dw'

What do I win?:D

[acarr]

1. Name the one sport in which neither the spectators nor the
participants know the score or the leader until the contest ends.

I don't know that this is boxing. You get scores per round. Also, I am not sure that there is just one sport. English or Western horse riding has no scoring or anything until the end when the judge announces a winner.

The way a judge scores a fight isn't revealed until its conclusion, not after each round.
