Ultimate Fighting Championship fights feature various betting options that are similar to betting markets in other popular sports. If you want to enjoy betting on any UFC match, it’s important to know these options. One of the most popular types is betting on the “Total Rounds,” where you predict which fighter will win the match and how many rounds the event will last. Additionally, there are other betting options available for UFC fans.
Final Result Market: In this market, bettors try to predict the fighter who will emerge as the winner of the match. It’s important to remember that the bettor must correctly predict the exact outcome to win the bet. Otherwise, the bet is considered lost.
Total Rounds Market: In this market, the bettor predicts the total number of rounds the fight will last, in addition to choosing the winner. The most common option is “over/under,” where the bettor decides whether the fight will have more or fewer rounds than the number set by the betting house.
Handicap Market: In this market, a fighter is given an advantage or disadvantage before the fight starts. This means that, to win the bet, the fighter must win by a larger margin (negative handicap) or a smaller margin (positive handicap) than usual. This is done to balance the chances of victory between the fighters and offer better odds to the bettor.
Method of Victory Market: In this market, the bettor predicts how the fighter will win the match. Options include victory by knockout, submission, or judges’ decision. Some betting houses also offer more specific options, such as victory by points or disqualification.
Victory Points Market: In this market, the bettor predicts how the judges will score the match. Options include victory by unanimous decision, victory by split decision, draw, or victory by knockout or submission. This market is popular for fights expected to be closely contested, without one fighter clearly dominating.
Will the Fight Go the Distance: The bettor predicts whether the fight will last all the scheduled rounds or if it will be stopped before time. The “Yes” option is chosen if the fight ends after all the rounds, and the “No” option is chosen if the fight is stopped before the expected time.
