Picking Winners versus the Boxing Betting Line

You must pick and choose your spots.  All you can do in boxing  is learn as much as you can about the fighters and their tendencies and try to make the best possible pick versus the boxing betting line.  With boxing  there are going to be heavy priced favorites because for the most part, boxing is not that competitive.  The best fighters are usually priced very high and if you want to make money you have to be willing to risk money against the boxing line.

Sometimes with the boxing betting line you will occasionally see an underdog worth a shot, but you are not going to get rich picking underdogs in boxing.  Sometimes the champs will overlook the underdog, but even when that is the case it requires a huge domination for an underdog to get a decision.  You should also be aware that there is big money involved in fight rematches, so nothing is a sure thing on the boxing line, even though the prices remain outrageously high.

There is no doubt that boxing has more inflated prices on the favorites than any other sport.  There is a huge difference in price between the favorite and the dog.  You also will see sportsbooks tack on even more to the price and make the take back even less.  For example, it might be that the favorite is -300 and the underdog is only +220 on the boxing betting line.  That is a terrible boxing line on the underdog and something that you really can’t bet into and win.

There are no guarantees on the boxing line.  You have to take your shots when you can in the big fights.  You also may want to consider just betting how long you think the fight will go.  The round options are sometimes worth a look when the favorite is so highly priced on the boxing betting line.
