Since the ancient days of gladiators, spectators
have enjoyed the thrill of betting on combative
sporting contests. Every moment of a fight seems
much more exciting when there is money riding on the
outcome. Today is no different, as a growing number
of people are betting on World Championship Boxers.

Betting Odds Explained
Money Line: In certain situations the odds-maker
may set a "Money Line" bet alongside or instead of a
point-spread If a match-up is determined by a Money Line,
then it will cost more to win less on the favorite, and
less to win more on the underdog. Since no point spread is
involved, a customer simply selects a winner and is paid
according to the "Money Line" the the odds-maker sets.
Money Line Wagers
The boxer wagered on just has to win the fight. The amount
you lay or take for each fight may vary. The money line
that is read to at the time of your wager is the money
line you keep regardless of any line movement.
Example: The player wagers on Roy Jones -160 at
Antonio Tarver +260. If Roy wins then the player would lay
$160.00 to win $100.00. If the player bet on Tarver then
the player would lay $100.00 to win $260.00
European Odds
All European football lines are quoted using European
odds. European odds are slightly different than their
North American money-line counterparts. American
Money-line odds are expressed with a minus (-) or a plus
(+) symbol. (i.e. -150 or +200). European Odds use a
decimal, include the original stake in the odds, and omit
the minus or plus.Example 1:
You wager on a team offered at 4.00. In European Odds this
would means that for every $1.00 you wager (your stake),
you get back $4.00 if they win - $3.00 plus your original
$1.00 stake. If you lose, you lose your $1.00 wager.
Example 2: You wager on a team offered at 1.60. In
European Odds this would means that for every $1.00 you
wager (your stake), you get back $1.60 if you win - $0.60
plus your original $1.00 stake. If you lose, you lose your
$1.00 wager.
