MMA betting is similar to boxing betting. While most boxing bouts go twelve rounds, some can last as short as three rounds. For example, you could bet on Tyson Fury to win a group of rounds between rounds 6 and 10. MMA fights, on the other hand, are usually only three rounds long, though championship bouts can go five or more. The winner is determined by KO/TKO, submission, or a decision on the judges’ scorecards.
Grouped round betting
Grouped round betting in MMA works similar to boxing. You can place a bet on one round of a fight or on the entire group. In boxing, a bout usually goes twelve rounds, and betting on one round may not be profitable. With grouping round betting in MMA, you can bet on both fighters to win the fight or on a specific round, like knockout or five rounds.
You can calculate the over/under round bet by studying the fight history of both fighters. The fight’s record can give you insights into their skill sets and how long they’ve been fighting. You can even use these details when deciding which fighter to bet on in a fight. The two-fighter fight is more likely to go the distance if both fighters can finish each round. A fighter’s previous fight record can give you an idea of how long it will take.
Moneyline bets
When you’re looking for a simple way to bet on an MMA fight, moneyline bets are a great choice. Moneyline bets involve betting on a single fighter instead of the entire match. While some MMA betting enthusiasts will throw their money at their favorite, the odds of betting on the underdog are generally better than the favorites. Therefore, you should place your bet on the side that you think has the best chance of winning the match.
The first thing you’ll need to know about moneyline bets is how they work. They’re the easiest way to place a wager. When you’re betting on the moneyline, you’re selecting a fighter you believe will win. If a fighter is -200, this means you’ll need to bet $200 to win $100. On the other hand, if a fighter is +150, you’ll likely make a profit of $150 or $185 if you bet on him or her.
Over/Under bets
Over/Under bets in Mmma betting differ slightly from their counterparts in other sports. This is because, in MMA, you’re betting on whether a fight will go over a specified amount of time. In non-championship fights, the over/under odds are set to be over or under a round and a half. Because the odds for over/under bets don’t sway dramatically, they are usually available at most major online sportsbooks.
The Over/Under total is set by the oddsmakers based on the implied probability that the fight will go to a certain number of rounds. For instance, if the bout between FIGHTER A and FIGHTER B is scheduled to last five rounds, the Over/Under total will be 2.5. Likewise, if the fight goes to a tie at 2:30 in round five, the ‘Under’ bet will win and the ‘Over’ bet will win.
