Benefits of Live Betting

Comparing live and pre-fight betting odds, there are lots of benefits to live betting:

1. More betting opportunities: Even if you miss out on placing a pre-fight bet, you’ll still have plenty of opportunities to bet while the fight is happening.

2. Respond to the action: MMA fights can be very unpredictable, and sometimes it’s good to see the first round to get an idea of how the fight will go. With live betting, you can watch how the fighters match up and then make your picks, with greater insights helping you make successful bets.

3. Find better value: The live odds will change in real-time based on what’s happening inside the cage. This provides a great opportunity to get value, especially if you’re betting on a fighter who has a knack for coming back after a difficult first round.

Live Odds

Live odds work in the same way as pre-fight MMA odds, with higher odds indicating lower implied probability. Make sure you read our guide to understanding odds before you bet. To make it easier to read, Stake allows you to switch between decimal, fractional and American odds formats. Remember that the live UFC odds will change in real-time in response to the action. The odds may also be suspended at any point during the fight, so it’s important to move quickly if you see an opportunity.

Live Betting Strategies

1. Watch the live fights as you bet, so you get the full picture of what’s happening inside the cage and the most likely outcome.

2. Always pay attention to data and statistics, including recent form and the finish rate of both fighters. You can find these stats online or in our UFC picks blog.

3. Read through all of our analysis and predictions too. We offer our picks and predictions for all major UFC fights, which you can use to place your own bets.
