A regular UFC card may provide a significant amount of actionable value after considering all betting alternatives. So, in addition to moneylines and over/unders, I’ll go into how I plan to wager on each bout card, including exact winning techniques, winning round props, and whether the fight will go to a decision or conclude within the distance.

UFC 271 fight Prediction :
The idea of two heavyweights fighting inside the octagon isn’t usually thrilling, but Ngannou versus Gane is a tantalizing possibility.
Gane may be the more well-rounded fighter, but Ngannou’s strength is impressive.
