UFC Picks Explained
UFC picks means just that – at its most basic, it means picking the winners of each fight on a card. This is a Moneyline bet – the easiest and simplest of sports bets. So a UFC Moneyline bet is a bet on who wins the fight, no matter how or when.
If you are looking at American odds, you can identify the favorite as the fighter with negative, or minus, odds. For example, odds of -200 mean you would have to wager $200 to win $100.
The other most popular bets on the UFC are: Method of Victory – TKO/KO, Submission or Decision – and the Over/Under on Total Rounds.
As fight night approaches, look out for special prop bets as well. These often include markets like Strikes Landed or the Number Of Takedowns in a fight.
A big UFC promotion is nothing if not a hugely entertaining show. Great cards are often headlined by title fights across the range of weight classes.
If you consider the early prelims, the prelims and the main card, on a big night that’s too many fights for the average fan to handle. So it makes sense to turn to The AllStar and our expert MMA picks analysis.
The AllStar team can break down a fighter’s technique, identify their strengths and weaknesses, study recent form, and gauge how they perform against fighters with different styles.
And then do the same for their opponent, before coming up with a truly informed pick as to who is more likely to win their upcoming match-up.
Before making any UFC bets, be sure to read The AllStar’s in-depth fight previews.
UFC Pick Em
Sports betting should be, first and foremost, entertaining. And half the fun for someone starting out is getting to know the often colorful language that goes with it.
A UFC Pick Em could mean one of two things. First, it’s just another term for a UFC pick – a competition in which you correctly pick the winners on a fight card. So a UFC Picks app like The AllStar also doubles as a UFC pick em app too.
Second, while it may not seem like it, it is actually a technical sports betting term. A “pick em” describes a moneyline bet where the bookmaker doesn’t offer a clear favorite or an underdog. In other words, a fight so evenly matched, that – for fear of mis-pricing an upset – the bookmaker’s approach is resigned to the attitude of “Well, pick em either way”…
And while you can’t ever rule out an upset – especially in MMA where so much can change in an instant – our UFC picks analysis and fight previews can help inform both your pick em games with your buddies, or, if you want to go a step further, your actual UFC betting decisions in fights that might be too close to call.

MMA Predictions and MMA Picks
Although MMA has been around longer than the UFC, the premier promotion took the sport mainstream.
The UFC also represents the highest level of competition in the sport. It is the ultimate goal for fighters plying their trade in other promotions, or why they enter associated programs like The Ultimate Fighter and The Contender series.
The AllStar’s experts follow not only the UFC, but other MMA promotions as well. This lets them keep tabs on up-and-coming fighters for the day they do make it to the big top – and the day they might affect YOUR picks! That makes them insiders in the sport, with insight into new fighters before they make a name for themselves.
Promising fighters with potential will always catch peoples’ eyes – but you have to know what to look for.
For most cards, our MMA picks will focus on the main MMA betting markets: the Moneyline (winner); the Total Rounds over/under; and the Method of Victory (KO/TKO, Submission or Decision. The last bet usually offers much higher odds than the moneyline.
The AllStar has all the stats and info you could want to do your own research too. In fact, we recommend that you do. No one gets it right all the time, but if you make an educated call that pays off… the feeling of achievement is that much more enjoyable.
Our MMA picks, for the UFC or other organisations, are published well before the hype music begins. This gives you plenty of time to form an educated opinion on your UFC picks. Which in turn increases the likelihood of you flaunting your bragging rights, or turning those opinions into to real money. Either way works for us!
