UFC Futures: Best Bets to Hold the Belt at Year’s End<\/p>\n
Below are three fighters I believe have a good shot to end 2026 having UFC gold around their waist. All UFC odds<\/a> are via the DraftKings Sportsbook and are accurate as of the post date of this article.\u00a0<\/p>\n Check out DraftKings to bet on <\/a>MMA Odds<\/a> and use the <\/a>DraftKings promo code<\/a> for a great welcome offer.<\/p>\n Featherweight Champion: Movsar Evloev (+350)<\/p>\n The featherweight title is up for grabs at UFC 325, as Alexander Volkanovski<\/a> defends his belt in a rematch against Diego Lopes<\/a>.<\/p>\n However, I don’t expect either to end the year as the belt, as there’s a good chance this is Volkanovski’s final fight. If he retires, it puts Movsar Evloev<\/a> in a good spot to get a title shot.<\/p>\n Evloev isn’t the most exciting fighter, but he’s very good, and I would favor him over all the other featherweight contenders. Should he get a title shot this year, I expect him to end the year as a champ, and at +350, the value is there.<\/p>\n UFC Betting Futures Pick: Movsar Evloev<\/a> (+350)<\/p>\n RotoWire has the latest in UFC betting odds<\/a> & fighter prop bets for every event, plus compares markets across multiple legal sportsbooks.<\/p>\n Bantamweight Champion: Umar Nurmagomedov (+250)<\/p>\n Umar Nurmagomedov<\/a> was someone I thought would be the champion already, so I’ll once again back him to become the champ.<\/p>\n Nurmagomedov is set to face Deiveson Figueiredo<\/a> at UFC 324, and I like him to win that fight. Should Nurmagomedov get the win, he could very well get the next title shot.<\/p>\n If Nurmagomedov faces Petr Yan<\/a> for the bantamweight title, I favor Nurmagomedov to get the win, so getting +250 is good value here.<\/p>\n UFC Betting Futures Pick:\u00a0Umar Nurmagomedov<\/a> (+250)<\/p>\n Starting in December,\u00a0Missouri sports betting<\/a>\u00a0is live, and you can check in on the best\u00a0Missouri sportsbook promos<\/a>\u00a0if you’re located in the Show Me State.<\/p>\n Women’s Strawweight Champion: Tatiana Suarez (+500)<\/p>\n For my final pick of UFC champions, I’m taking a bit of a longer shot with Tatiana Suarez<\/a> to end the year as the women’s strawweight champion at +500.<\/p>\n Suarez fought for the belt last year and lost to Zhang Weili<\/a>, who may return to strawweight, but how much longer she fights is up in the air.<\/p>\n Currently, Suarez is next in line to fight for the belt, and I would favor her to beat Mackenzie Dern<\/a>. The division may only see two title fights this year, so I’ll take the shot at Suarez at +500, as I favor her over anyone in the division outside of Weili, considering her future is unclear.<\/p>\n UFC Betting Futures Pick:\u00a0Tatiana Suarez<\/a> (+500)<\/p>\n Cash in on the best sportsbook promos<\/a> available for MMA betting<\/a>.
