UFC betting predictions, tips and picks from Betway InsiderBetway Insider provides a wide range of UFC picks covering a number of different events throughout the year.

Picks are provided for all numbered UFC events, while some more minor fight nights are also covered.

All UFC predictions provided by Betway Insider are free.

What is the UFC?

UFC stands for Ultimate Fighting Championship, and it is the biggest and most successful mixed martial arts promotion in the world.

The UFC organise MMA events throughout the year, featuring some of the biggest names in the sport.

When do UFC events take place?

Every month, the UFC will put on several events. One of these will be a numbered event, for example UFC 262. These numbered events are the biggest UFC cards, and are usually stacked with title fights and the biggest names. 

Other UFC events are known as Fight Nights, and will usually feature more up-and-coming UFC fighters. Occasionally, one of these Fight Nights will feature a title fight.

Where do UFC events take place?

UFC organises events all over the world, but the majority take place in the USA. 

The UFC has hosted events in 25 other countries around the globe, including China, Brazil, Japan, the UK, and Australia. 

Who are the Betway Insider tipsters?

Our tipsters each have several years’ experience in the betting industry, and have a strong track record of producing profit.

When are UFC tips published?

Betway Insider produce UFC predictions on a regular basis throughout the year.

Our UFC tips will always be published on our website by the evening before the event, at the very latest.

What types of UFC predictions do Betway provide?

The UFC betting experts at Betway Insider produce tips for every fight on the main card at each event covered, with some prelim fights occasionally covered as well.

With dozens of different markets offered for each UFC fight, our picks are usually made up of several different types of tips.

These include fight winner tips, round betting tips and method of victory tips.

How do you bet on UFC?

If you are unsure of how betting odds work, read our handy guide which provides you with all the information you need to start betting.

When you’re ready to place a bet, your first option is to head to the Betway Insider website to read through our experts’ predictions. Each article will have a link to the sportsbook, where you can then place your bet.

Otherwise you can head straight to the Betway sportsbook to place your bet.

If you are unfamiliar with fractional odds, which are the default option on our sportsbook, you are also able to view our markets in decimal and American odds format.

The most popular market on the sportsbook for UFC betting is the Fight Winner market, which simply allows you to bet on the fighter you believe will win the bout. The Fight Winner market is also known as the Moneyline or Match Bet market elsewhere.

Another popular offering is the Round Betting market. This allows you to predict a winner and the round in which you believe the fight will end. This can be useful for fights you believe will end early or go the distance.

You are also able to place bets on the Method of Victory market. This offering allows you to predict a winner and the fashion in which the fight will end – decision, KO/TKO, submission, disqualification.

Other markets that are offered for UFC betting include Total Rounds, which allows you to bet on whether the fight will go over or under 2.5 rounds, and Will The Fight Go The Distance, which allows you to bet on whether the fight will go to the judges’ scorecards.

If you want to place a bet encompassing several fights, then you are also able to build an accumulator bet on the sportsbook. This feature allows you to predict the outcome of several different fights in a single bet, at longer odds. 

If you are looking for something more specific, you can create your own #BetYourWay bet for selected events. This feature allows you to build your own multi-leg bet, consisting of picks from several different markets. Simply tweet us using the hashtag #BetYourWay and our traders will aim to price it up for you.

As well as being able to place all these bets before the opening bell, you are also able to bet in-play. This feature allows you to place picks while the action is ongoing, meaning you are better able to assess the direction in which the fight is heading.

What other tips are available?

While the vast majority of our mixed martial arts tips are for UFC events, Betway Insider also produce the occasional tipping piece for Bellator fight nights.

Even if tips aren’t available for a certain event, the likelihood is that our sportsbook will be offering odds, with organisations such as BAMMA, Cage Warriors, Glory, KSW and ONE Championship all covered.

Away from the octagon, Betway Insider also publish betting tips on a wide range of sports other than UFC.
