Thread: MMA in the Sports book?!?!?!?

Ok guys I am thinking about adding some MMA fights to the sports book, starting with Liddell vs Ortiz on Dec. 30th, what are your opinions? The same action points would apply, and the betting would be the same.

Great Idea it adds more versatility and more virtual money earning potential....I know most arent enthused about MMA but I feel its a good way to add a dimension and knowledge in the mean time I suggested that we give it a few months and its not gonna interfere with the boxing purists cause there arent as many fights... Lets give it a shot guys

Ummm, as i know little about boxing outside of the UK, but nothing at all about MMA, i'd go with no. Unless, there is some sort of boxrec type site which has records etc, on which, like this week, gambling is done. Anyhow, it is another option to bet on, so variety is the spice....etc, so i wouldnt object to more bets available

I'm not really into MMA stuff at all but that's because I don't know where to start. If you guys like it and most importantly,if Killer, has the time to add it then by all means,go ahead.

I think the beauty of it is you dont have to bet on it if you dont want to, I believe its gonna be just a supplement to the already existing Boxing mainstream of the Sports Book..

Well hey thats fine if you dont want to participate, What about the guys that do... It all washes out take this weekends fights for instance I have no unearthly Idea who the guys fighting are and I am a rabid fan like you, so I cant make a confident bet, but if I had an alternative it would be nice

No ones asking to turn it into an MMA book but just a small alternative, I am lobbying hard I admit but I dont see how a trial would be harmful especially when it has no impact on our existing game...

Plus this is Gregs book and this will get him more exposure in the big picture...

NO!!! Not interested in anything MMA, would rather not see it in the sportsbook.

Looking like it's a no so far on the MMA in the book.
