With Las Vegas casinos and sportsbooks now back open, bettors are already making history.
A bettor placed a $1 million wager on Amanda Nunes to beat Felicia Spencer at UFC 250 on Saturday. The bet was placed at a William Hill US sportsbook, setting a new mark for the largest bet ever placed on an MMA event in William Hill history.
Nunes' odds were at -600 at the time of the bet, meaning a win would pay out a total of $1,166,666.70.
There have been five UFC events since the sport came back from its coronavirus layoff, though this is the first since Nevada has reopened its sportsbooks.
