Description
This event group covers prediction markets on the UFC Fight Night main card matchup between Dan Ige and Melquizael Costa (featherweight division), scheduled for February 21, 2026. Markets span multiple outcome dimensions: fight winner, method of victory (KO/TKO, submission, decision), distance (round thresholds), and go-the-distance scenarios.
Kalshi uses exhaustive outcome coverage (all 7 fight results map to YES), while Polymarket uses selective outcome-specific markets (winner, method, distance). The platforms measure different dimensions of the same event, creating incompatible resolution frameworks.
Hero Tip:
Do not assume Kalshi and Polymarket markets will correlate. Kalshi guarantees one market resolves YES; Polymarket may resolve all NO or mixed YES/NO/50-50 depending on fight outcome and timing. Monitor the official UFC event page (ufc.com/events) for cancellations or postponements beyond March 7, 2026, as this triggers 50-50 resolution on Polymarket but may not affect Kalshi's scheduled-date logic.
Critical Divergence Points:
Kalshi: Seven binary YES/NO markets covering all mutually exclusive outcomes: Draw, Costa Submission, Costa Decision, Costa KO-TKO-DQ, Ige KO-TKO-DQ, Ige Decision, Ige Submission. Exactly one outcome must occur, guaranteeing one market resolves YES. No explicit fallback for cancellation or postponement mentioned.
Polymarket: Six outcome-specific markets: Go-the-Distance (YES if judges' decision after full rounds), Winner (Ige/Costa/50-50), KO-TKO (YES if either fighter), Costa KO-TKO (YES if Costa), Submission (YES if either fighter), Ige KO-TKO (YES if Ige), and Round Over-Under thresholds (0.5, 1.5, 2.5). All resolve 50-50 if fight is No Contest, not scored, canceled, or postponed beyond March 7, 2026.
