How do you read & bet on UFC fight odds?

Before you bet on UFC, switch between different odds formats to make it easier for you to read the odds and calculate your potential payouts. Our guide to the differences between decimal, fractional and American format has more details.

Main card odds

Most UFC events are broken up into three main stages: the early preliminary card (early prelims), the preliminary card (prelims) and the main card. The fights are usually ordered with the biggest names and best fights at the top of the card, with title fights usually made for the co-main and main events.

Main card odds work just the same as the early prelims and prelims. However, more betting markets are sometimes available on the main card fights.

Fight night odds

UFC events are typically either numbered events, such as UFC 328, or Fight Night events. The biggest cards stacked with the best fighters are held on numbered events. While Fight Nights tend to feature lower-ranked fighters and aren’t normally headlined by a title fight. Either way, you’ll be able to bet on them here at Stake, with all fights covered.

The betting odds for UFC Fight Nights work just the same as the odds on numbered fight card events.
