In MMA betting, you can place wagers on the winner of a match, or on how the fight will end. The odds for this are slightly different from the moneyline bets, but the payout is the same. If you have a favorite, you can place bets on him or her to win the match.

The odds for MMA betting depend on many factors. While a fighter’s recent performance and form are important, the odds will also be affected by his or her divisional ranking, physical attributes, and other factors. Knowing about this information can help you make an informed decision about whether to bet on a favorite or a underdog.

Another important aspect of MMA betting is the style of the fighting. Each fighter has a unique style that has its own advantages and disadvantages. Learning about each style will help you make the best picks. For example, a fighter may have a more aggressive or a more passive style. In addition, it will be easier to predict the outcome of a match if you are familiar with the betting odds for both fighters.

It is also important to know about the fighter’s training partners. Having a good training partner is essential in a fighter’s career. While they may not be famous, it is important to do research on them. It’s not enough to look at numbers; you also have to consider their recent injuries and changes in training staff. If possible, check out public videos of the fighter’s training sessions to help you make an informed decision.

If you’re looking for a way to increase your winnings in MMA betting, parlays are a great option. Parlays combine several individual bets into one and can help you win big money. However, they are a bit riskier than the single wagers. Parlays also often involve MMA over/under bets.

The oddsmakers will also give you an Over/Under total for each match. This will give you an idea of how much action the match is expected to last. Usually, they will set a price for the Over/Under total, called vig or juice. This price is based on the implied probability that a fight will last the full number of rounds. For example, if a championship match takes place over five rounds, a fighter will win the fight if he or she is knocked down in Round three.

When betting on MMA, it is important to know how to read the odds and the betting prices. Generally, the odds of winning a match are negative for the favorite and positive for the underdog. In addition, be aware that sportsbooks will usually adjust the odds to match the public’s perception of the match.

Among the different types of MMA bets, the most popular is the moneyline bet. In a moneyline bet, you choose which fighter is going to win over the other. You can also place an Over/Under bet based on how many rounds are in the fight. You can bet on the winner of each round by selecting one of the sides.
