As opposed to traditional sports betting, which allows wagers on events occurring in the future, MMA betting focuses more heavily on individual fight outcomes and makes it more challenging to predict how a particular fight will end. To gain more accurate insights into odds and better bets for yourself, consider placing bets on individual rounds and total fight total. This way you will have an increased understanding of odds while making more informed wagers.

Money Lines

Moneylines provide the simplest form of MMA betting. Bettors can place bets on which fighter will win by considering relative skill levels between fighters; odds often favor those with lower skill levels while those with greater expertise will often be considered underdogs by oddsmakers.

Oddsmakers set over/under totals for every fight based on its style of fighting and round schedule, much like boxing over/under totals. Each side will be assigned an expected probability that this fight will reach that point and charged accordingly – typically, placing an over bet will cost less than placing one with an Under bet.

Winning Method Bets

You can place a winning method bet on how a specific fight will end, from knockout to submission and anything in between. Bets may be placed either on full fights or individual rounds and usually divided into categories like KO/TKO, submission and decision. In the latter event, judges or panels of judges will make the ultimate determination as to who will prevail in an outcome of this kind of bet.

Props (or proposition bets), also referred to as UFC props, are wagers placed on specific events that might happen during an UFC bout, including scoring takedowns, submission attempts or touching gloves with another fighter. Props offer fun wagers that could yield large returns when combined with parlays.

Futures

Mma futures are bets on the outcome of future MMA matches. Unlike in traditional sporting events, where games can be bet on before their actual commencement, futures for mixed martial arts (MMA) must be agreed and scheduled one by one between fighters, promotions (such as UFC), management teams of fighters, and their management teams before you can place bets. This may cause some uncertainty when futures betting but thorough research of each fighter and his/her history is key in making wise choices when placing bets on futures betting opportunities.
