Best Boxing Betting Sites USA: How to Bet on Boxing 2022

When you are betting on boxing moneylines, you are betting on who you think will win the match. It’s always important that you remember to look at the symbol that comes before the boxing odds. A negative symbol will indicate the favorite, and a positive symbol will show the underdog. For example:

• Floyd Mayweather Jr. +225
• Manny Pacquiao -275

You have Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Manny Pacquiao battling in a welterweight fight. Pacquiao is listed as the favorite at -275 for the match, while Mayweather Jr. would be the underdog at +225. If you want to bet on Manny, you would have to bet $275 to win $100. Meanwhile, with Floyd as the underdog, you would stand to win $225 on a bet of $100.

For boxing betting, the over/under will normally have to do with the number of rounds that a match will go. Therefore, you might hear it referred to as “round betting”. Here, the sportsbook will set a total for the number of rounds a fight could go.

So, for the above example of Mayweather-Pacquiao, the total might be set at 9.5 rounds. You can bet on whether the bout will last over or under the number of rounds set by the online betting site. The winner of the actual match has nothing to do with the outcome of this bet.

Parlays are betting on multiple fights on one ticket. So, you might want to bet on the undercard that lead up to the main event as well as the big fight itself. But the key to parlay betting is that all of your bets have to be correct, or your ticket is done.

Props are bets that don’t necessarily have to do with the outcome of a match. The most popular boxing betting prop has to do with how the fight will end. So, for Mayweather-Pacquiao, you could see bets for whether the fight will end in a split decision, a unanimous decision, a majority decision, or a TKO/KO. You will often see a draw in the props section as well, as they are somewhat rare.

Method of victory betting is for people to wager on exactly the boxing match outcome—For example, whether the match ends with a straight knockout or disqualification.
