If you are a fan of UFC and love to cheer for your favorite fighters you might as well do it with extra motivation as you can make bets with 22Bet and win with your favorite fighters.
Before placing any bets, you should consider outstanding factors that might affect the outcome of the fight. For instance, there is plenty to lose for both the champ Israel Adesanya and the contender Robert Whittaker. Who is most likely to go away with a belt? Before placing any specific bets, take a look at their past record of defending their titles, and make up your mind accordingly.
It was over 2 years, even though it seems far longer since the rising star Israel Adesanya dethroned the Australian pride Robert Whittaker in his hometown Melbourne to gain the UFC middleweight title. Unlike champions in other divisions, Adesanya was extremely active in these 2 years since getting the title.
Before you bet on him being dethroned, you should consider that the so-called “The Last Stylebender” has made three successful title defenses, beating Yoel Romero, Paulo Costa, and Marvin Vettori.
Before betting on Whittaker, you should consider that he took plenty of time to recover both physically and mentally from his defeat to Adesanya. However, he proved his abilities when he returned to the octagon in July 2020 and beat the top contender Darren Till. He proceeded by dominating another top fighter of the middleweight division – Jared Cannonier. Next, he fought with former interim title challenger Kelvin Gastelum and gave fans a spectacular performance winning all 5 rounds against his opponent. All of these facts speak volumes about Whittaker’s ability to win in the UFC.
There is no doubt that these two gentlemen are the best middleweights in the world right now. So choosing to bet on one of them is a risky business, but it can be rewarding. You should carefully examine betting lines to find the bets you’re comfortable with and ones that have a high chance of occurring.
Both are in their prime and looked amazing in recent fights. So who will come out on top this time?
