Floyd vs Mcgregor odds are RIDICULOUS.

[Sugar Adam Ali]

I was wondering that too. I figured that Irish dude would be like a 1000 to 1 underdog, so I could put A $G on him, And Win A Million Bucks if he, by some Miracle, got Lucky.

It's called the moneyline or betting the moneyline
+ is the underdog
- is the favorite

Basically it equates to $100-
if Conor is +400 it means you win 400 for every hundred you bet, so a $200 bet wins $800

If a guy is -400, it's the reverse and you gotta bet $400 to win $100,,so if you bet a hundred, you would win $125..

Here you go

Its ******. Fractional and decimal odds are much easier to work out.

Tell that to Vegas..

And it's actually the easiest, safest way to bet since their is no point spreads

Nowhere near as ridiculous as Ward KO numbers. That happened.

Under 9.5 rounds is the same odds as Mayweather by KO. I'd bet on that, it covers McGregor landing a miracle punch.

Casuals and MMA fans are offering even money on Floyd to win the fight in many cases. That's what I'm going with.

+400 means for every 100 dollars you bet you get 400 in return for a successful bet.

-400 means you need to bet 400 to get a 100 dollar return on a successful bet.

I believe it's the opposite.

Most casuals see this as a 50/50 fight. Because Conor beat Jose Aldo they think he can beat anyone.

Ganondorf, if you see a legit place where somebody is prepared to bet on McGregor at even money let me know my friend!

To be honest, the 1/6 on Mayweather (that's -600 in US currency) is absolutely crazy. I mean I remember Mayweather was 1/7 (-700) against Guerrero, a multi-weight boxing world champion - so according to the oddsmakers McGregor has more chance of winning than Guerrero did

All I learned from this thread is Americans don't understand fractions.

I have never seen odds ever expressed as + and - before.
