Conor McGregor is betting big on UFC 334, and he made sure everybody knew which bookmaker was getting the action.
“Here is my treble for tonight’s fights, I will place the bet on @1xBet_Eng!” he wrote on X on Saturday. “On typical sites the €200k returns €5m. On @1xBet_Eng it will return €6million! 😮 Happy Champ Champ weekend everyone, enjoy the fights and good luck!”
The three selections came in an attached image rather than in the text of the post, so the picks themselves aren’t spelled out here.

The math is still worth a look. A €5 million return on €200,000 works out to a combined price of roughly 25.0 in decimal odds, about +2400. The €6 million figure he quoted implies something closer to 30.0, or +2900. That’s a 20% bump in payout on the same three outcomes, which is a big gap between books on a treble. A 25-to-1 combo also tells you McGregor didn’t stack three chalk favorites and call it a strategy. I’ve seen worse tickets. I’ve written worse tickets.
The “Champ Champ” line refers to the anniversary of UFC 205, where McGregor beat Eddie Alvarez for the lightweight title and became the first fighter to hold UFC belts in two weight classes at the same time. Thursday marked 10 years since that night, and accounts including Spinnin Backfist and DovySimuMMA posted highlights of the performance. On Friday, McGregor quote-posted a fan clip of the crowd from his heyday with a single prayer-hands emoji.

The McGregor of 2026 looks different on paper. He is 22-7 and sits No. 26 at welterweight in the Knockout Daily rankings, with his last fight logged on July 11, 2026, per Cagefile data. He remains the biggest pay-per-view draw in MMA history, and his UFC 229 bout with Khabib Nurmagomedov drew 2.4 million buys, still the record for an MMA event.
The commercial side matters here too. After an Irish High Court ruled in a November 2024 civil case that McGregor had assaulted and raped a woman in 2018, he lost several sponsorship and partnership deals. He lost his appeal of that verdict in July 2025. A post tagging a bookmaker twice in four lines is the kind of partnership that has stayed in his feed.

The ticket settles tonight at UFC 334. If all three legs cash, he’s claiming €6 million. If one misses, 1xBet keeps €200,000 and McGregor keeps the anniversary.
