Most crypto sportsbooks don't offer much variety on esports so you'll rarely see fighting games on their lists, I remember Nitrogensports was able to put up some lines for Tekken back then.

Right now there's no scheduled tournament so you won't see any odds for fighting games but once EVO starts next month I suggest to keep an eye out on these esport bookies Nitrogensports, Sportsbet, and Cloudbet.

If you are looking for a sports betting gambling site that provides games like you said a lot, but I can't guarantee that the site is fair, safe or not.

In this forum there is a gambling site that offers a kind of game Mortal Kombat, Tekken, Street Fighter, etc.
But the sports betting site now has a bad reputation on this forum, many accusations of fraud.

If I may suggest to your friends, look for sites that have a good reputation for honest and general games (betting) as can be available on certain sports sites.

Video game competitions fall under a ESPORTS category of gambling.

I have seen and bet on counterstrike only to satisfy my curiosity on how odds were calculated. Can't say I've delved into the topic deeply enough to know how common it is for fighting genre games to be covered by bookies and sportsbooks.

Nitrogensports currently lists: counterstrike, league of legends, DOTA2, valorant, call of duty, starcraft 2, overwatch, rainbow 6, king of glory and FIFA.

It would seem those games are the ones with the most gambling and league support.

Nope, never find that.

Is quite rare due the demands not pretty big like MOBA or FPS game. So since the demands not really good, I gues that the reason why some sportsbook/casino doesn't want to add the match. Did you ever ask to the game community of that game? maybe you can find something from there but remember always check everything for the website.

Since there is a scarcity of E-Sports fighting games, maybe you can organize something like that and invite people who have the same interest as you and you can create the boat that is needed to play and accept those bets on behalf of both parties. Unless there's already in the famous sports betting sites with this, I think it's not going to be hard.

Organize a tournament, I think it would be way more fun.

The problem is trust.

Do, anyone on the internet want to place a bet on someone who doesn't have credibility or service how do they trust him? I guess, is hard or even just like an impossible task for me.

Actually you could use a decentralised service like Augur. There you can place a prediction and others are able to bet against you. I think there are already a lot of alternatives to Augur, but it is still the most famous. Of course maybe you can find a bookie offering such bets, but let's stay in crypto heaven.

I haven't found a site that does provide bets for games like street fighter at this time, but I personally prefer to bet on Dota games and also counter strikes, because I think bets in dota games are relatively easier for us to win because we can win easily if us know the info on the team that we are hold, and usually I will prefer the Money Line betting form in esports tournaments.
Nowadays we can easily find some information about the playing team, so that we can choose the team that we think has the potential to win, because usually gambling sites only make big and prestigious tournament tournaments for gambling.

The games metioned are video games and I doubt if online casinos have such gambling options in their catalog. Except for video Gaming centres that includes gambling options at their hubs. But I guess ps5 should have such option though but am not really sure about it

Are you talking about esports? There are few sites that I think offer e-sports betting, but only on games very popular and has a very good player base. It's rare though, so I doubt you will find any casinos offering odds for the games that you have mentioned. Would be fun if there was a casino that offered odds for those fighting games, but instead of real people playing those games, its CPU vs CPU (AI vs AI). It's going to be really unpredictable.

^Probably because these Mortal Kombat, Street Fighter, Tekken, or Injustice 2 games are very old games, and it seems this game is only 1 vs 1 battle. The most common game that has on E-sports gambling are those the player is 5 vs 5 per team. Versus battle is not common in tournaments and I think that is the reason betting on these games does not exist. Nevertheless, I don't see any information on the internet upon searching this, and probably if there is a betting platform like this only where the bettors only know about their bet and not on the public.

Those are esports, I can't remember if it's familiar that I've seen some street fighter games. But as for checking, even those popular esports bookie.
They don't have those games that you've mentioned but I saw an NBA 2k but there's still no games listed on loot.bet.

GG.Bet
ArcaneBet
Rivalry
Thunderpick
22Bet

You can search up usually Mortal Kombat can be found on 22Bet.. Some would be supporting crypto and some arent.
So choose on what suits you out.

The market maybe on those games aren't that huge that's why it wasn't considered yet to list by the crypto-betting sites. Usually, those only popular in E-sports.

For now, you can just continue bets against your friend although I don't know where you can play that physically as like here in my place, video games stations, even on malls are like a ghost town as it's not allowed to be open in public and those machines are just left there hanging together with others game slots.

[uneng]

These are classic games, but they aren't so popular nowadays at the point of being included in common gambling platforms. If you search terms like the game you want and betting word on the same sentence you will see many sites offering such bets, however they are fiat gambling platforms and since you are at bitcointalk forum I suppose you are looking for crypto gambling platforms, right?
Maybe there are closed groups and communities of fans on discord or youtube which promote betting on these fighting games you mentioned.

[harizen]

As per some articles, if compared to other E-sports games, the number of people that betting on those games isn't that high. Also not as profitable as betting on League of Legends and DOTA 2.

You can refer to @carlfebz response although researching about the reputation of those sites should be on you. I'm not sure though if those sites are accepting cryptocurrencies so take a time looking at those or else, just try the fiat betting.

This could be also a result of  "match-fixing", even huge e-sports games these days are still experiencing match-fixing, which this match-fixing is 99% gambling/money involved.
One of the bases for sure of sportsbooks that are catering e-Sports is first the gameplay, mechanics of a game, and for sure the community of the game which is a very big help for them to get more gamblers and result in a profit for them.

[Wexnident]

Never really bothered to look for some so I'm not sure, but try looking up sportsbook when Evo comes in, should be rather easy to see if they actually accept it or not. Evo 2021 starts at the beginning of August, so maybe you can check their announcements out then when the roster comes out, then sportsbook would probably start accepting bets for it by then.

Though I highly doubt it actually has one, since the tourney is open for all and a LOT of players would probably enter by then. Fighting games encourage a lot of players to enter and join tourneys since it's rather quick after all, compared to FPS and MOBA competitive matches.

Dude, fighting games have a really good player base and they have a lot of good players that are always competing in the scene that's why I asked if there's a site that hosts one and I thank everyone who replied to this thread, I appreciate every answer.
