Yeah u got it.. Here's a quick breakdown on how the odds work..


The above odds are based on what is known as "A money line"

Money line betting is simply wagering on the contest based on a given price. In MMA this means the fighter wagered on has to win the fight outright.

* The minus sign (e.g.-130) always indicates the favorite and the amount you must bet to win $100.

* The plus sign (e.g.+110) always indicates the underdog and the amount you win for every $100 bet (you may wager more or less).

* Using this example, therefore, you would bet $130 to win $100 on the favorite, while for the underdog you would bet $100 to win $110.

In the context of this event

ANTONIO ROGERIO NOGUEIRA is -240 this means you have to bet $240 to win $100. If Nogueira Wins your Total Return would be $340

ALISTAIR OVEREEM is +200 this means you have to bet $100 to win $200. If Overeem Wins your Total Return would be $300

If the fight ends in a draw, no contest or it simply does not happen, you will get your money back.

Hope That Helps...
