Would you bet on Medieval MMA?

I don't know that I would bet on this type of sport but I think it might be pretty interesting to sit back and watch for enjoyment.

I don't know that I would bet on this type of sport but I think it might be pretty interesting to sit back and watch for enjoyment.

I have the same thoughts as you, even though this game is included in the gambling site, maybe I just watched the game, in what terms I have to bet and which opponent and where myself.


I try to browse the game What Exactly Are Rules in Medieval MMA, looks like a bet in the centuries of the Roman Empire and the heyday of England.

For a while I have no interest in betting on Medieval MMA, the reason: I don't understand this sports game system, how to win and lose, I see a strong and reliable one who wins.

[Ararbermas]

 It seems good sports to gamble but look how many are they on that fight wherein how can a referee handle such game? perhaps it will be a mess after the game ends, lol  and also too hard to make a prediction whose gonna win in my view wherein for sure it will be a game of luck for anyone who want t o gamble with it..
and lastly this kind of event is more interesting than other bloody game except boxing but let see if other gambler will agree to have such game in gambling..

Would you have interest in betting in a sport like this and promoting it, so it could become more popular until being included in gambling's platforms?

i only see this on the movies and play this in a game but its more fun to watch it in reality and betting along it .
i like it when the match is played by 21 or 150 people than lower than this numbers  .
i can recomend this in my own friends but to promote it to the other people that i dont know ? im not sure unless if im going to get paid like what im doing in a signature campaign

Although I've heard of medieval MMA and there are some clubs that are quite successful at it, but the 'sport' seems to be more of a show for spectators. Using authentic armor and replica weapons isn't aimed at the sporting aspect of the competition, but rather at making the spectator experience more realistic as well as entertaining.
Sports like these are not the best for betting because they lack clearly defined rules and scoring, which can lead to manipulation and cheating in sports betting.

Nevertheless, as others have mentioned, it may be a lot of fun to simply sit back and watch for entertainment.

[acener]

I like to watch those kind of movies but I didn't know that there is still some people who does this kind of game up till now.
But betting on it wouldn't really be my thing there are lot of things to consider just like on movies some might cheat on it and it could also be rigged,
But I would surely enjoy watching those match.

This is something new and I will support this kind of sport if they are well organized and if this is being offered by sports betting company, I like watching medieval fighting in the movies but I'm sure on this one they are not going to use real swords and they should ensure that all participants are of good health like on the MMA and professional boxing, so there will be no untoward incident.

I am not sure this whole thing is a real fight. If it is, it looks really fun and gambling would make it even more so. However, it looks quite too dangerous to be a real thing, it most likely is some short of pre-arranged thing where nobody gets really hurt and the winner is already decided beforehand. Even with great odds, it looks too much like an unrealistic competition. I do love the images though, it is like Game of Thrones but funnier.

[michellee]

Maybe I will observe and watch the tournament first before deciding to place a bet on that team because this is the first time I knew about that game. If we do not know how to place the bet and how to choose the team, I think we do not have to try to do that because we do not have a chance to win from the other player. I guess that game will relate to the strong team, how big the percentage for each team to win, how strong or what skills each player on the team will have, and many things.

Probably most people don't know a championship where players team up wearing medieval armors and wielding real weapons like swords, axes and halberds to fight against another teams exist nowadays, but it does. The event exists since 2013 and already counts with the participation of 26 nations which send a team of your own to the competition. Each year the championship is executed in a different country and there is already an International Federation responsible for it (International Medieval Combat Federation)

As someone who is really interested in history i like that kind of "sports" or events and i also watched the TV-Show "knight fight" a little bit. But I wouldn't bet on it at the moment, because the sport is still too small and too unpopular and therefore no or only very little money can be earned with it. This then automatically means that the participants are much more receptive to any attempts at bribery. If the sport gets bigger in the future though then of course it would just be as good as any other sport to bet on it.

This is interesting, and this is my first time to hear about this Medieval MMA fights and I'm shock to see that 25 countries are a member of Medieval combat. -snip-

A friend of mine is part of such a group, so I have some insight into what goes on. They train at least 3 times a week, there are also professional teams that are invited to fights by the organizers and earn money. The fights themselves are highly professional and run very coordinated, comparable to 5 on 5 fights in CS.

What you see on the screenshots above are mass battles that are purely for the entertainment of the audience. The "real" fights take place in very small teams (3 vs. 3, 5 vs. 5), where it is also quite easy to keep track.

So it is definitely a very interesting sport that offers a lot of potential for exciting bets. Here you can see a 1 vs 1 with axes, it's really getting down to business:

It must be really nice to have a friend participating of a group like this. 1 vs 1 and 5 vs 5 are great to watch.

The video above you posted was actually the first one about the subject I found on youtube. After watching it I kept digging for more and found the Battle of Nations championship event.

I am not sure this whole thing is a real fight. If it is, it looks really fun and gambling would make it even more so.

Even with great odds, it looks too much like an unrealistic competition. I do love the images though, it is like Game of Thrones but funnier.

I believe nosebleeds and some injured arms, fists are a common thing.
The most agressive fight I have seen so far was this 1 vs 1. Look how one of the players use his shield against his opponent's head at the end: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VlCQ2pBob5Q
For anyone interested in watching the games, they can be easily found on youtube through *Battle of Nations* search term. There are lots of videos.

We are not really getting back in time for us to deal up again with these medieval kind of sports which should supposed not to be revived but since its already there then there are people whom do really get interested on this one.

This would only interest out into those countries which does have this kind of history when it comes to those past or ancient wars that is part of their past and the rest would really be seeing
this as a shit one (this is only my impression though)

Asking if i would bet? For sure there are no bookies wouldnt really give out some line if it isnt really that popular enough.

[leea-1334]

I would not, and I do not think it makes sense.

I never participated but for sure I have seen on tv and on documentaries and the problem with this type of fights is they is a big risk of people throwing the match.

Nobody plays very seriously to not get injured and most people are just there for fun and there are no big rules (you get hit you must fall down).

Sure. This sport (or performance) is still very far from the professional level, where all issues will be strictly regulated and the level of the participants will guarantee the fairness of the game and some stability of the results. At the moment, bets on this sport can only be made for the sake of entertainment and only of a small size.

Would only just small size because this thing isnt really popular but seeing these start up then it might potentially become big later on.

Looking or watching these fights are really that entertaining for me.I dont know for most people though.

[tokeweed]

F*ck yeah I’m gonna bet on this!  I was so up into knights and stuff as a kid.  Lol.  And looks fun to watch while having a few drinks and laughs with your friends.  5 vs 5 looks like it’s gonna be the most challenging.  21 vs 21 would be a joke.  A better competition would be a 21 man, last man standing free for all.

Yeah, usually countries which have a historical participation in medieval times are more susceptible participating and promoting the event, especially european countries. It looks like Ukraine and Russia armies are very strong teams. But there aren't only european countries on the competition. USA, Mexico, South Africa, Argentina, Brazil are also there.
Ironically, even not being part of medieval times, USA has also a very strong team.

I would not, and I do not think it makes sense.

I think you are misunderstanding it. This championship isn't like those fights where people use foam swords and clubs to fight each other and once you hit someone anywhere on their body, they must lay down. The fights presented here use real weapons made of steel and iron. And players are only eliminated if the opponent manages to knock they down through physical confrontation. So players must play seriously and have a lot of resistance to tolerate real solid weapons striking against their legs, heads, etc...

[dothebeats]

I'm gonna bet on this just for the lulz and the appreciation of how well they reenact the fights. It might be one of those odd sports that is actually entertaining to watch until the end. I've always been fascinated with how the medieval knights were doing the actual fights and not just reading them and seeing the pictures from galleries. It may not be a 1:1 depiction of the events that transpired in the past, but it's still interesting as hell to watch.

Now if those are real armors that they are donning then that adds up to the entertainment value.

There are different categories of fights: 1 vs 1, 5 vs 5, 21 vs 21 and I saw there is even 150 vs 150, which rely in different attributes like resistance, strength, strategy, leadership and so on.
The rules are simple: if the player goes down he is out of the game. The team which manages to knock down the whole opponent team is the winner.

Like in any sports it's possible to see some nations are superior to anothers, what would give the chance to the sport's fans to earn some money by predicting the correct results. Would you have interest in betting in a sport like this and promoting it, so it could become more popular until being included in gambling's platforms?

In fact I knew that something like this existed and I remember watching it some years ago, however I do not think right now there is a lot of interest for casinos to add this competition so you can bet on it, however if it becomes more popular this could be the case, but at the same time I cannot stop thinking that despite the armor they are wearing this is very dangerous and maybe at some point in the future the sport may be even forbidden as they are using weapons that could even kill despite the armor they have in place.

[notblox1]

Why do anyone call this Medieval MMA when it has nothing related with mixed martial arts?
It can be interesting to bet and watch this medieval fights but it is far from being a sport and if they are using real weapons you can imagine that people would be seriously hurt.
I never saw any betting website offering this but if they can have virtual stuff I don't see why not adding medieval fighting.
