If you're betting $500 straight wagers on -500 favorites to win $100, you have no business betting to start with.
And nearly any serious bettor, is betting to win based on their unit, whatever it may be.
-250 favorite, with a unit size of $100. $250 to win $100.
+1000 dog, same unit. $10 to win $100.
You're not really going to throw away a **** load of money betting underdogs, because you're going to be betting a much smaller amount.
And you're not going to be throwing away a **** load of money on heavy favorites, because, well, you're not going to be straight betting heavy favorites.
That's where prop betting comes in. Decision props, will go, won't go, round props, over/under, hedging. There are a million ways to make money betting boxing, and a lot ways to minimize your losses.
5dimes has more props that any online book I've ever seen. It's the premier book for boxing/mma betting, imo.
