The James Krause Betting Scandal: A Timeline

The James Krause betting scandal has been a long road. The timeline shows how long it took to get to this point.

James Krause and Brandon Moreno will meet in June 2021. Kraus makes more money gambling on MMA than all of his other endeavors. He shares information and picks with people on a Discord server that had 2,000 members.

James Krause launched a gambling podcast called the 1% Club Podcast. It was advertised as a way to promote his Discord server.

James Krause asked his Discord members to load up their gambling accounts with $5,000 and hand them over to him. He would bet up the accounts and then give the money back to the original owner.

The UFC banned all fighters from betting on UFC fights. The ban also included any relatives living in the same house as a fighter, coaches, trainers, training partners, or anyone who might have non-public information about the fights, as well as James Krause.

UFC fighters are prohibited from gambling on any UFC fight. They can still be sponsored.

Darrick Minner was a +180 underdog before his fight at UFC Vegas 64. Money flocked in on his opponent Shayilan Nuerdanbieke. Miner was finished 67 seconds into the fight by James Krause.

Krause was banned from cornering for the upcoming fight between Miles Johns and Vince Morales. The UFC informed Krause about that information a day before the fight.

James Krause is selling his share of Glory MMA. The reported buyer is FAC owner and operator Joe Wooster. Kraused used to promote some of his shows.

At the moment, many Glory MMA fighters are still on UFC cards in January. This seems to insinuate that the sale is enough to appease the UFC for the time being.
