UFC Betting Notes at SBG Global

UFC betting really developed because boxing was not able to fill the void.  Fans wanted to know who the best fighter was, whether that style was Kung Fu, Karate, wrestling, boxing, kick boxing, etc. UFC betting appeals to many different types of fans in large part because it is exciting and oftentimes violent. The sport actually had trouble in the early 2000’s but boxing promoter Dana White made the sport more respectable and brought it into the mainstream. He also set UFC match rules with non-title matches going three rounds and title fights going five rounds.

This is important to remember as you look at UFC betting odds. MMA really started from the ground up and excelled because of fans, not because of some fake promotion. MMA may be best known for UFC betting but PRIDE also has some great fighters in their organization. Part of the appeal of MMA is that the best fighter wins. If a fighter has a winning style then there are no arguments. Fighters usually have to be well rounded and able to handle a variety of styles in UFC betting. The styles of each fighter are important to consider in UFC.

UFC has evolved into something that has overtaken boxing in popularity with many fighters making a name for themselves. UFC will have popular fighters like Quinton Jackson or Chuck Liddell in addition to a number of others. UFC betting odds are based on money lines similar to what you would see in golf or tennis. You also will see UFC odds on round propositions and how a fight will end, whether by submission or knockout.
