Hello you wonderful people, it is so good to once again have fights to bet on. The UFC returns from its one month layoff to kickstart the 2023 campaign and while UFC Vegas 67 might not be the best card, it's still the first fights in weeks and that means it's time to place some bets! Because this card isn't particularly good, we're going with a…

James Krause, who played an important role in getting the MMA promotion Fighting Alliance Championship (FAC) off the ground, has been barred from attending the upcoming FAC 17. Krause is currently at the center of a betting scandal that threatens to derail much of the work sportsbooks have done to become more popular in MMA. The MMA fighter turned…

While the betting scandal currently swirling around the UFC has dominated MMA headlines this week, there have been a lot of other stories definitely worth a second look. From Maycee Barber's scary revelation that she had a stalker dogging her for several years, to Conor McGregor settling a lawsuit just says after another one was launched, here's a…

The UFC heads to Dallas on Saturday for its second pay-per-view event of July: UFC 277. In the main event, women's bantamweight champion Julianna Peña looks to go 2-0 against Amanda Nunes, and in the co-main event, former flyweight champion Brandon Moreno takes on Kai Kara-France for the interim 125-pound belt. Add in another 12 fights, and there's…

After taking yet another week off, the UFC returns this Saturday with UFC Vegas 62, headlined by a women's flyweight fight between Alexa Grasso and Viviane Araujo. It's a bit of a lackluster card (plus we lost Askar Askarov vs. Brandon Royval), so I've only got one straight bet this week, but with UFC 280 just around the corner, any excuse to lay…

This weekend in Houston, UFC 271 takes place and features a middleweight title rematch between Israel Adesanya and Robert Whittaker. Also on the card are 14 other fights showcasing some of the top MMA talent in the world. That's a lot of fights, and a lot of opportunities to make some wagers. For those who are so inclined, and I'll go over some of…

The UFC has finally gotten around to banning its athletes from betting on fights, in what was thought to be a no-brainer. Speaking of no-brainers (apologies over the low blow), Bryce Mitchell wants to debate Joe Rogan over the Earth being flat. Seriously. Plus ONE Championship and the PFL announce some big broadcast deals. That and more in this…

After impressing in Dana White's Contender Series (not once, but twice), Bo Nickal got himself a UFC contract. How lucrative his deal is going to turn out depends not only on him but also on the star power of his opponents. The rumor has it that his second UFC opponent is going to be a real superstar - Khamzat Chimaev. Of course, this matchup still…

Islam Makhachev has a single blemish on his professional MMA record, a 2015 TKO loss to Adriano Martins. Given that legacy, the former UFC lightweight talent has been asked his opinion on who will prevail when Makhachev faces Charles Oliveira in the main event of UFC 280 later this month in Abu Dhabi. "Charles doesn't have anything to prove to…

UFC 279 was one of the craziest fight week's in history, but there's no rest for the MMA fandom as the world's leading fight promotion is back this weekend with another offering at the UFC Apex, UFC Vegas 60. In the main event, Cory Sandhagen looks to retain his place in the bantamweight title conversation when he takes on Song Yadong in a fight…

Chael Sonnen thinks Charles Oliveira is angry that he is a betting underdog going into the UFC 280 title fight against Islam Makhachev. Despite finishing Michael Chandler, Dustin Poirier, and Justin Gaethje, 'do Bronx' is a+150 underdog going into the bout against Makhachev. According to Sonnen, Oliveira is bothered by bettors undermining his…
