Question 2

What is an MMA Moneyline?

Accepted Answer

A moneyline is the most simple concept to follow in sports betting, in terms of different bet types. It is simply betting on a fighter to win the fight outright. The fighter with a - sign next to its odds is said to be the favorite and the fighter with the + sign next to its odds is the underdog. Speaking of odds, while the concept is simple the strategy of betting moneylines gets a little more complex. The odds directly determine how much you need to stake to win a certain amount of money. If McGregor is a -275 favorite over Poirier, you would have to bet $275 to win only $100. Conversely, Poirier at a +200 underdog $100 bet would net you a $200 profit if he were to win.

Question 3

What is MMA Round Betting

Accepted Answer

Round betting in MMA is betting on which round the fight is going to end in. If the over/under for a fight is set at 2.5 and it ends in the second round then the under would have hit since that is less than 2.5. If the fight ends in round five then the over would have hit since that is more than 2.5. In this specific example, there would not be a chance for a push since the line has a hook (.5 on a betting line).

Question 4

What are MMA Method of Victory Bets?

For your bet to hit, the fight has to end in the correct method of victory you bet on.
