For those new to 'recreational' money lines, all bets are based on $100.
For instance, fighter A might be favored at -150 to win the fight. That means you have to wager $150 to win $100.
Fighter B might be an underdog at +130 to win the fight. That means if you wager $100, you will win $130.
Because there are no point spreads or handicap in fighting to even things out, you simply run the risk of wagering more money for the fighter that's more likely to win.
When Matt Serra fought Georges St. Pierre for the welterweight title GSP was a huge favorite. The line read as follows:
Georges St. Pierre - 385
Matt Serra +330
If you took Georges St. Pierre, you lost $385 for every $100 wagered because he was expected to easily win.If you took Matt Serra, you won $330 for every $100 wagered because no one expected him to win.
