As part of the deal, NetBet branding is present in the Octagon and all throughout the promo's international broadcast feeds, as well as their social media channels.

NetBet consumers will be asked to predict the result of five selected battles to be in with a possibility of winning a ₤ 2,000 jackpot, with other rewards available to those who bag either 4 or three correct choices. You'll need the method of victory, not simply the battle winner, I hesitate. Adam and Nick will be supplying their own predictions too, to help those who are possibly newer to the world of UFC. You'll see the reward grow too. Next weekend for UFC 318 we'll be using ₤ 4,000. It's extremely, really winnable.
