In this comprehensive guide, we&#8217;ll provide you with everything you need to know about how to bet on the UFC, including valuable UFC betting tips and information on where you can access live streams of UFC events at various online bookmakers. Whether you&#8217;re a seasoned UFC enthusiast or a curious newcomer, this page will equip you with the necessary knowledge so that you can get the most out of your UFC betting exploits.<\/p>\n<h2>How to Bet on UFC Fights &#8211; the Basics<\/h2>\n<p>No reputable sports betting site in the UK should be without UFC betting options. Once you&#8217;ve backed your UFC betting predictions, you can actively respond to every aspect of the bout you&#8217;re watching or following online, allowing you to incorporate additional UFC betting tips as the fight unfolds. If you have in-depth knowledge of the UFC fighters then betting presents a fantastic opportunity to maximise your UFC betting expertise. Moreover, most sports betting sites offer <a href=\"https:\/\/www.safebettingsites.com\/live\/\">live UFC betting<\/a> including the cash-out feature. This allows you to cash out a winning bet before the actual event concludes. It&#8217;s a valuable option if you lack confidence in your bet holding up until the end.<\/p>\n<h3>Understanding the Basics of UFC Online Betting<\/h3>\n<p>UFC matchups are highly competitive, thrilling, and often unpredictable. Unlike many other sports where one competitor is usually the clear favourite, UFC fights are often much more evenly matched. Given the diverse range of disciplines involved in UFC matchups, anything can happen during a fight. However, despite the unpredictability, understanding the sport is relatively straightforward, as there can only be one winner in each bout.<\/p>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-9641 size-large\" title=\"Conor McGregor v Donald Cerrone\" src=\"https:\/\/www.safebettingsites.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/conor_cover-1024x597.jpg\" alt=\"Connor McGregor Racked up $180M in 2021-SafeBettingSites.com\" width=\"1024\" height=\"597\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.safebettingsites.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/conor_cover-1024x597.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.safebettingsites.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/conor_cover-300x175.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.safebettingsites.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/conor_cover-240x140.jpg 240w, https:\/\/www.safebettingsites.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/conor_cover-768x448.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.safebettingsites.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/conor_cover.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/>\n<p>The primary UFC bet revolves around predicting the winner of the fight. However, there are plenty of other betting options available that can enhance the excitement of UFC betting. You can bet on the total number of rounds in the contest (usually over\/under 1.5 rounds), the winning method (decision, knockout, technical knockout, disqualification or submission), or even the specific round in which the winner will be declared. Combining these betting options can offer you <a href=\"https:\/\/www.safebettingsites.com\/how-do-betting-odds-work\/\">more favourable odds<\/a> and betting possibilities.<\/p>\n<h3>Various Ways to Bet on the UFC<\/h3>\n<p>UFC bouts take place in eleven different divisions, covering different weight classes for both male and female fighters. The simplest bet involves predicting the winner of the matchup. Other popular betting options include the following:<\/p>\n<div class=\"su-list\" style=\"margin-left:0px\">\n<ul>\n<li><svg width=\"20\" height=\"21\" viewBox=\"0 0 20 21\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M0 10.4819C0 4.95909 4.47715 0.481934 10 0.481934C15.5228 0.481934 20 4.95909 20 10.4819C20 16.0048 15.5228 20.4819 10 20.4819C4.47715 20.4819 0 16.0048 0 10.4819Z\" fill=\"#E1F4E7\"\/><path d=\"M5.75635 10.4087L8.63432 13.2866L14.2437 7.67725\" stroke=\"#1C2642\" stroke-width=\"2\"\/><\/svg> <strong>UFC Bout Winner by Finish<\/strong>: Choose the winner and whether the fight will end in a finish.

Here is an example bet, placed at one of our favourite online betting sites in the United Kingdom, BetUK.<\/p>\n<p>The first step is of course to log into your sports betting account (or create a sports betting account if you do not already have one). Once logged in head to the menus and look for &#8216;UFC&#8217;, or &#8216;UFC\/MMA&#8217; as the two disciplines are often combined. Look through the bouts on offer, and selection the one that intrigues you enough to place a wager upon it.<\/p>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-37072 aligncenter\" title=\"UFC bet\" src=\"https:\/\/www.safebettingsites.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/UFC_bet.png\" alt=\"UFC bet\" width=\"783\" height=\"181\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.safebettingsites.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/UFC_bet.png 783w, https:\/\/www.safebettingsites.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/UFC_bet-300x69.png 300w, https:\/\/www.safebettingsites.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/UFC_bet-768x178.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 783px) 100vw, 783px\" \/>\n<p>Here we have chosen the upcoming bout between Chris Duncan and Yanal Ashmoz. Duncan is the favourite at 1.67 (2\/3) while Ashmoz is priced at 2.20 (6\/5). We favour a bet on the underdog, so we click on 2.20 to transfer the wager to our betslip.<\/p>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-37073 aligncenter\" title=\"UFC bet 1\" src=\"https:\/\/www.safebettingsites.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/UFC_bet_1.png\" alt=\"UFC bet 1\" width=\"376\" height=\"242\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.safebettingsites.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/UFC_bet_1.png 376w, https:\/\/www.safebettingsites.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/UFC_bet_1-300x193.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 376px) 100vw, 376px\" \/>\n<p>We have set our stake to \u00a32, which at odds of 2.20 will return us \u00a34.40. To confirm our bet, we just need click on the &#8216;place bet&#8217; button and then that means our bet is placed.<\/p>\n<h2>Look for Value in UFC Betting Odds<\/h2>\n<p>It is always advisable that UFC bettors look for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.safebettingsites.com\/value-betting\/\">value in the betting odds<\/a>. Value refers to identifying bets where the probability of an outcome is higher than what the odds suggest. Instead of merely backing the favourite conduct thorough research on the fighters&#8217; form, fighting styles, and recent performances. Seek underdog opportunities with potential for an upset. Additionally, consider factors like fighter injuries, motivation and stylistic match-ups. By identifying value bets, you can enhance your chances of long-term profitability in UFC betting and make more informed decisions, mitigating the impact of luck (good and bad!) and therefore maximising your returns.<\/p>\n<h2>Live UFC Betting<\/h2>\n<p>Live UFC betting at the leading sports betting sites in the UK has revolutionised the way that betting enthusiasts engage with the sport. Gone are the days of only being able to place pre-event bets and waiting for the outcome. With live UFC betting, punters can immerse themselves in the action as it unfolds in real-time. These <a href=\"https:\/\/www.safebettingsites.com\/ufc\/\">top-tier UFC betting sites in the UK<\/a> offer a plethora of in-play betting options, allowing users to react to every moment of the fight. Whether it&#8217;s predicting the next round winner, method of victory, or even specific fight events, the possibilities are numerous. The dynamic nature of UFC bouts, with their fast-paced and unpredictable nature, makes live betting even more exhilarating.<\/p>\n<p>The best UK sports betting sites may even provide live streaming services, enabling users to watch the fights live as they place their bets. This combination of live betting and streaming enhances the overall experience, providing fans with instant gratification and an opportunity to use their UFC and MMA expertise to capitalise on evolving fight scenarios. If you are a true UFC expert, then live UFC betting clearly leads the way if you hope to remain in the black when it comes to placing your UFC bets.<\/p>\n<div class=\"list_how_to\" id=\"how-to-the-best-ufc-betting-strategies\" >\n    <h2 class=\"list_how_to__title\">The Best UFC Betting Strategies<\/h2>\n    <p class=\"list_how_to__description\">Learning how to bet on UFC fights online and win depends upon defining a workable UFC betting strategy. Due to the relatively unpredictable nature of UFC bouts, when you place a bet on UFC online on a regular basis, coming up with a workable UFC betting strategy is tough, but our experts have entered the cage and come up with a couple of UFC betting strategy ideas.<\/p>\n    <div class=\"list_how_to__list_wrapper\">\n        <ol class=\"list_how_to__list\">\n            <li class=\"list_how_to__item\"><h3 class=\"list_how_to__item_title\">The Weigh-In Check Strategy<\/h3><div class=\"list_how_to__item_text\">Fighters have to be in prime shape when they compete in the UFC. Fighters who are in poor condition, such as heavier than usual often struggle to produce their best form. The weigh-in, which takes place a day before the bout, indicates the physical condition of the fighter. Sometimes fighters have to dehydrate in order to make their weight, and 24 hours is not sufficient time for a fighter to properly and fully re-hydrate in time. Watching the weigh-ins (and ignoring the eye-to-eye \u2018bantz\u2019) can serve as a decent indication of how a fighter is likely to perform the following day.<\/div><\/li><li class=\"list_how_to__item\"><h3 class=\"list_how_to__item_title\">The Ignore The Heavy Favourites Strategy<\/h3><div class=\"list_how_to__item_text\">With most sports, experienced punters will always tell you to back the favourite, as the favourite is always more likely to win then the less-fancied selections. This idea does not translate well to UFC fighting, because the favourite in UFC does not win with the same kind of regularity as the favourite in other sports. Instead of betting on the favourite, it could be worth your while backing the underdog instead, especially if their price is between 3.50 and 6.00 decimal, or 5\/2 and 5\/1 fractional. If you adopt this strategy, then you will only need to be correct around one-in-three times in order for your bets to return a consistent profit.<\/div><\/li>\n        <\/ol>\n        \n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<p>The key aspect of learning how to bet on UFC fights online and return a consistent profit is to do your homework. A solid understanding of the sport and all its intricacies is the only way to be in the best place to make your UFC betting online a success.<\/p>\n<h2>Common Mistakes to Avoid When Betting on the UFC Online in the UK<\/h2>\n<p>As we have said a few times in this article already, returning a profit consistently even if you bet on the UFC online at the best place to bet on UFC fights in the UK is difficult, as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lowkickmma.com\/why-is-mma-the-most-spectacular-unpredictable-sport\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">UFC match-ups can be extremely unpredictable<\/a>. You can, however, prevent yourself from experiencing a bout of failures by taking a look at the list of common mistakes to avoid when betting on the UFC online in the UK.<\/p>\n<p>The list has been
