Favorite contact sport events to gamble with?

[thejaytiesto]

We have:

Boxing matches (Showtime PPV, HBO, that's it for the big ones)
MMA: UFC, Bellator (the new Strikeforce? it's gaining strength)
Kick boxing: K1, Glory

what else is there, and what are your favorites? what one did you make the most money at?

I made like $5,000 in the past 15 years betting wins on Mayweather, so boxing was my favorite.

UFC, I used to bet in the Fedor times, not so much anymore, specially with Bon Jones out. I might start betting again, bet win on Bon Jones everytime for easy money.

I also did some k1 bets, made money thanks to Mirco Crocop performances.

well me too. first would be boxing and i think it would be the same for most of us here. Betting for mayweather probably is the easiest way to make profit as his style makes it very difficult for anyone to beat him. he may not be that much fun to watch but his effectiveness in his style makes him almost an instant win. Also, in mma, i think during the time when fedor was at his prime, i don't think anyone can beat him, even fighters from the ufc during that time. it's a shame he didn't sign up for the ufc then.

My favorite contact sport is UFC because underdogs always have a chance in winning the match. I gained a decent amount of money from ufc only after winning some bets including a couple of underdogs with odds from 3-4.5.

In my country MMA fights is not really a big thing, but boxing is something that I like to see and make an occasional bet, I will watch almost every major fight that happens around the world but I also like to watch and bet on local matches in the local arena of my city.

[mirakal]

I watch UFC and Boxing but my favorite is boxing because Manny Pacquiao is a very entertaining fighter and he makes boxing more popular in our country, he is very opposite to Mayweather but since we are in gambling, we make our bet on the Guy who's very good at the sports as it's the best way to make easy money. Like you, you made so much money and we do not need to enjoy the game as long as our aim will be achieve.

I mainly like Bellator for betting as it is the only one I can watch freely from my tv plan.

Often the outcome is also quite predicatble as there are some strong favorites there.

My favourite contact sport is boxing, I think there are more enthusiastic people betting in boxing rather in MMA, and usually the odds for boxing is better than MMA, I also ever bet on MMA, the result in MMA is more predictable rather than boxing and sometimes MMA match is too fast, I just started want to enjoyed and the referee stop the match because the opponent tap out

[boyptc]

I would go for boxing I'd love this type of contact sports. I also love to go with wrestling but I don't think that it is even called as sports, it is all about entertainment. Although there are casino's that are also covering these type of games. Also MMA is what my friends and I are also into it. So these are my favorite contact sports.

My favorite contact sport is boxing and i don't miss a chance without betting on it. But because my favorite boxing players are fighting once or twice only per year it doesn't give me much profit. My second favorite is ufc. I have many friends who likes ufc and have some favorite players too. So they help me a lot when betting on those contact sports.

Boxing is not my fav sport, but I like to watch this game. It's very interesting and more exciting. I don't know the rules of games and how they count points. I just enjoy the fighting b/w two boxers. In my country only one boxer he entered this field he won all 7 games in a row. So if he plays I will watch a live game, and I will not do betting on this game because I am not a pro in boxing.

i have been watching boxing matches several times and it was very exciting but since i know MMA i think this sport was could be my favourite because they combine all of martial arts and the matches is more interesting to me so my favourite sport contact is MMA

I think could be said for football (soccer) where teams can play defensive and score 1 goal to win 1-0.  Games like tennis, snooker, rugby etc there is no chance for underdog.  Even with boxing underdog wins dont happen so much vs UFC.

try using nba odds because theres so many bet in nba odds

[passwordnow]

I'll go for boxing I always wanted to bet with boxing games especially when my favorite boxers are going to play. Also another thing is that I wanted to support some of my favorite UFC players of course it's like boxing the odds are always different and the favorite of the crowd is always on the top position but I like it very exciting.

[Blitzboy]

Football of course, I mean soccer in American English. I love to watch the champion league and the premier League. They are totally awesome and you can never know what will happen there. Therefore, the odds are very different and interesting, which make me want to deposit all of my money and wish that luck will come to me. Well, I also love World cup but it only occurs every 4 years

Everyone has their own likes and dislikes, I don’t like MMA fights that much because they are too real, you know, while I’m sure there are rules but  the fights in MMA are very similar to street fights with no rules where the only important thing is to win.

Every sports that's televise always has a rules, it may look like a street fight but they are professional and they are not out to kill their opponent. Some people loves more action and they find MMA fits on that they need, while some like boxing since it is way more popular than MMA worldwide.
Well, any sports you like would be good as long as it satisfies you needs and not kind of illegal sports.

[maydna]

i think i am only watching boxing in television and i am not gamble with the contact sport like other people because actually i don't watch contact sport events too often. but in the several years ago when mike tyson is having a good reputation, i always watch him in every match but now i think i don't have favorite players and i only watch contact sports if i want.

its too many player that we can choose to be our favorite player and too many contact sports event that could be our favorite sports but in contact sport, there always have a place in their fans like MMA, boxing, wrestling and others.

MMA is a cool spectacle, but it's too brutal, those knees to the head, and the elbows too, that's too much, but it's fun to see it, of course I would never expose myself to that sport.

Boxing is better to practice, but don't get tricked: it's also a brutal sport.
