UFC Predictions Explained
There are many different ways you can bet on this weekend’s UFC action, and many different UFC predictions you can make. As with most sports bets, the most popular type of UFC prediction is on the outcome of the fight, also known as the Moneyline. With the Moneyline in UFC, the method of victory is irrelevant and you are simply betting on the winner of the fight. Method Of Victory is also another popular bet type, where you are predicting a fighter to win by a certain method such as KO or submission. Aside from these main two methods, you can also make UFC predictions on the number of rounds a fight will last, and even detailed props such as Significant Strikes landed, Successful Takedowns, or the Fight To go The Distance.

When Are Your UFC Fight Predictions Posted
Our UFC predictions are typically posted on the day before the fight, following the weigh-in and final press conferences. By waiting until this point, we can maximize the information we can obtain leading up to a fight. One of the great things about the UFC is the access which it grants the media, with plenty of press during fight week and access to the weigh-in, we can find clues as to the shape of the fighters and the type of camp they’ve had. While the fighters won’t give away too much, eluding to a tricky prep or looking slim on the scales could be enough of a factor when making a UFC fight prediction. All of this will be in our full fight preview and analysis, along with key stats such as punch data and takedown success, so check out this weekend’s UFC fight predictions now.
How To Predict UFC Fights
There are so many ways to try and predict a UFC fight and each handicapper will have their own method. Unlike boxing for example, where you will have huge favorites, at times in excess of -5000, the UFC is a much more volatile sport, and upsets do happen. Styles make fights a phrase used amongst the UFC community and it rings true in betting as well. You need to figure out what each fighters’ strengths and weaknesses are, what style of fighter they are, and figure out who they give the advantage to. Take a look at a great wrestler and grappler such as Daniel Cormier, who is used to mauling opponents, but when facing Jon Jones, who has a great takedown defense, DC’s biggest weapon was negated and Jones is always favored in that spot if the fight stays on the feet. While it’s not quite that simple in predicting a UFC fight, it’s a good starting point. Our expert handicappers will combine this with hours of film study, crunching advanced stats metrics, watching the press conferences and weigh-ins, and more to build a complete picture of the fight before making a prediction. All of this can be found in our fight preview alongside our prediction, so check out this week’s UFC predictions now.
