Where to bet on UFC and MMA in Canada

Where to bet on UFC and MMA

Good news, giving your money away online is now easier than ever! Online sportsbooks are legal and regulated in Canada, in every province.

Finding a legitimate sportsbook can be daunting, especially in the beginning. Once you know what to look for in a bookmaker and you are able to clearly define your betting needs, finding the best sportsbook will naturally become much easier.

To make things more interesting, your location has a large bearing on where you are able to place bets. The United States has stringent gambling laws which can differ dramatically from state to state. Canada has transformed from banning all gambling outside of bingo and lotteries to allowing sports betting in every province. The UK has a long history and relatively few restrictions when it comes to betting online.

To help with this decision, here is a curated list of some of the best places to begin. There are thousands of sportsbooks to choose from so don’t feel that these are your only options, but simply the ones which I consider to be the easiest to use with the most betting options and support. This list is by no means exhaustive, and as of this writing as up to date as possible.

Betting on UFC in Canada

Mixed martial arts, boxing and the Ultimate Fighting Challenge are some of the most bet-on sports events in the world. However, Canadian MMA fans have historically faced two big barriers to getting in on the action:

• An unfamiliar bettting system
• American and international betting sites that allow Canadians

We will get you over both of these hurdles.

You may have already tried placing bets on MMA sites only to be told that only folks in the U.S. can bet. Once you’re done swearing about how unfair this is, listen up: you’re not out of the game yet. A small handful of wagering sites sites are not only open to Canadians, they rely on us and allow us to thrive. They aren’t all great, though. Some have archaic interfaces, limited betting options, poor communication. Some are heads and shoulders above the rest.

That said, here are our current top recommendations for betting on UFC & MMA from Canada, December 24, 2025
