Boxing and MMA Betting
The popularity of boxing in the post-Soviet space is growing rapidly, which causes an increased activity of bets on this sport in bookmakers. But even taking into account the constantly increasing popularity of boxing, not every bookmaker is ready to offer the most convenient and high-quality conditions for the game within the framework of this sports direction. But the success of the bettor depends on the quality of these conditions. So we have to analyze which bookmaker offers the best bets on boxing according to the list, lines and odds.

Line depth and event painting
Choosing a bookmaker for betting on football, hockey, handball and many other sports categories, the first thing that an experienced bettor learns when choosing a bookmaker is the level of odds. When choosing an office for betting on boxing, you should immediately study which operator offers the widest line and high-quality list of the battles themselves. The bookmaker may offer some of the highest odds, but at the same time the choice of fights is extremely limited or the list is terribly weak, where you can only bet on one of the fighters to win, which is extremely unprofitable for boxing. After all, many users prefer to bet on the total of rounds or the way one of the boxers wins, where you can play a good odds.
In terms of the choice of fights and the list of fights, it is worth highlighting several BC.
Such a painting could be observed in the Betcity BC as part of the sparring between Denis Lebedev and Mchunu. In addition to the main outcomes, there is a small additional list, where the bookmaker offers to choose how the fight will end.
This is how the same fight looks already in BC League of Bets, where another playable bet was added to the line in the form of “The fight will cover the entire distance”.
The more the bookmaker places bets from the category of playable bets, the more chances the bettor has, after a well-conducted analysis, to choose a promising option.
Two more licensed offices are not inferior in terms of painting popular fights: 1xStavka and Parimatch.
Such a proposal can be seen in the Parimatch line for the Lebedev – Mchunu fight, where there is a wide offer of additional painting.
Bookmaker 1xStavka is especially worth highlighting, offering its users sometimes curious long-term options. From time to time, this bookmaker in the “Special” section offers quite playable options. True, the bookmaker's analysts show not the highest coefficients on them, but they are sometimes well loaded by bettors.
BC 1xStavka differs from all its competitors in one striking advantage – lines for sparring, passing several months in advance, are placed before everyone else. There is no sense to bet long before the fight, at any moment the situation around one of the pair's boxers can change dramatically. But the early line for a fight allows you to track the movement of the line, which also helps to correctly assess the chances of winning for both boxers and make a wise choice of bets.
A wide range of sparring courses are offered to their clients by all four bookmakers mentioned above.
Where are the highest odds?
Having dealt with the first two characteristics, it is worth finding out which operators offer the highest odds, laying in them the smallest margin.
For calculations, let's take a not the most rated battle, where bookmakers often try to lay a high margin. In 1xBet in the presented match, the odds were 1.048 at W1, 27 at draw, and 12.5 at W2. Let's make the calculations:
The margin is 7.12%. For a fight of this level, this is a good indicator.
Such quotes on the day of the sparring itself were set by Betcity, where the margin is 9.44%. This is too high even for such a low-rated battle. At such numbers, even an experienced bettor will find it extremely difficult to get a good plus at a distance, because every time you have to give more than 9% to the bookmaker. If the margin significantly exceeds 5-6%, it is better not to bet on such odds – this is futile.
In bookmaker Winline, it was proposed to bet only on victories, where the quotes contain a margin of 7.58%.
In Parimatch, the bookmaker laid a margin of 8.17% in the odds of our chosen fight
BC League of Stakes even laid down 10.33% in this fight – this is too much.
Where to put it live?
The vast majority of bettors bet on boxing before the start of the fight, but there are enough users trying their luck in online betting. When choosing a bookmaker to play live within the framework of boxing, special attention should be paid to the speed of acceptance of live bets by the bookmaker. Boxing is a fast-paced sport, where the situation in the ring can change dramatically in just a few seconds, which will make it possible to make a promising bet. It takes the user a few seconds to think over the situation and make a decision. And it is worth imagining that if the bookmaker accepts the bet within 5-7 seconds, then during this time the favorable moment will “leak” and the bookmaker can remove a promising bet from the line.
A number of offices accept bets up to three seconds, where you should highlight:
- 1xBet
- Winline
- Parimatch
- Betcity
Summing up
To summarize all of the above, it is optimal to make bets on boxing in bookmakers in the most suitable companies: bookmaker 1xBet, Betcity and Parimatch. It is possible (and we recommend) to open a game account with companies and place bets where the best conditions are offered within the selected battle.
