Enjoy UFC Betting & Odds on Bet777

Founded way back in 1993, the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) is the pinnacle of MMA and a promotion which is recognised in every corner of the globe. Fighters dream of one day being able to compete in the famous Octagons, with title fights often drawing millions of viewers. Conor McGregor and Khabib Nurmagomedov’s famous clash at UFC 229 resulted in a record 2.4 million pay-per-view buys. Their rivalry transcended the world of sport, although they are far from the only global icons to have been part of Dana White’s UFC promotion. Anderson Silva, Ronda Rousey, Jon Jones and Brock Lesnar are just some of the other famous names which have played a major role in the UFC’s switch from a niche subject to the forefront of mainstream sport.

Of course, the UFC’s rise in general popularity has coincided with a boom in UFC betting, with most bookmakers now offering a wide range of UFC odds and markets. Here at Bet777, it is absolutely no different. We have every big fight covered, including all those on the undercard at UFC events. Let’s take a closer look at the world of UFC betting…

UFC Betting Markets

Even though a UFC fight is contested between just two people in the Octagon, the number of markets available is rather large. Here are some of the most popular:

Money Line: This is the simplest way to place a bet on a fight at any UFC event. Select which athlete you think will win the fight.

Total Rounds: This over/under market is a great way to find value in a fight, particularly those where the odds are stacked in one fighter’s favour. An example in this market would be ‘Over 3.5 Rounds’. Remember, UFC fights only last for a maximum of five rounds. Outside of title fights and main events, UFC bouts typically are scheduled for three five-minute rounds.

Winning Method: For this market, each fighter is given three different selections; X by Submission, X by Decision and X by KO, TKO or DQ. Select which option you believe will be the outcome.

Winning Round: Pick which round you think the fight will be won in. For example, ‘X to win Round 1’.

Fight to Go the Distance: Another very simple way to place a bet on a UFC fight. Simply select ‘Yes’ or ‘No’ as to whether you believe the bout will go the full distance and have to be decided by the judges.

UFC Betting Tips & Strategies

Research the fighters: Make sure you conduct thorough research on the fighters involved. Look into their strengths and weaknesses, analyse their overall records and gather as much information as possible - there is a lot available online! This will give you a distinct advantage in the world of UFC betting.

Beware different styles: Like boxing, styles make fights in the world of UFC. Those who perfect the art of wrestling often stand the best chance of achieving success. Lightweight legend Khabib Nurmagomedov was evidence of this, with his extensive background in wrestling helping him remain undefeated with 29 wins from 29 fights.

Watch a lot of videos: Studying footage of previous fights can be hugely beneficial. Who knows, you may spot a fight pattern which has gone under the radar - and it will also give you a better understanding of the UFC as a product.

Do not underestimate the underdog: As is the case in any combat sport, the favourite does not always win - far from it in fact. Upsets are common in the UFC given the often brutal nature of the fights, so keep that in mind when placing a bet on any contest.
