UFC 332 Betting Handle
Saturday October 3, 2026 (8:33 am EDT)
UFC 332 doesn't feature a huge household-name headliner, but there are several interesting betting fights and rising prospects. The main card begins at 8 p.m. ET on CBS and Paramount+, with prelims at 6 p.m. and early prelims at 4 p.m. Natalia Silva vs. Wang Cong is the championship fight. Valentina Shevchenko vacated the 125-pound belt after an injury left her sidelined indefinitely. Silva is 20-5-1 and 8-0 in the UFC, with consecutive victories over Jessica Andrade, Alexa Grasso and Rose Namajunas. Wang is 10-1 and has won four straight UFC fights after losing her second Octagon appearance. Silva is the -207 favorite in this one. Delveson Figueiredo vs Payton Talbott is actually the fight seeing the most betting handle. In some cases there was more bet on this one than Silva-Cong.
