    exact start of a UFC fight

    I need to know the exact start time for a UFC fight as one of my bets got voided and I need to prove a fight hadn't started before I placed my bet. Any idea where I can find this?

    Anything on this? I will try and hunt this down myself, but not sure where I would a stream that would also show the time stamp, so any ideas would be much appreciated.

    4:42pm est seems to be the start time. Well at least according to Don Best.

    I have the start time down to 1.41-1.42 PM Vegas time, but might even need more than that, down to seconds would be great.
    I placed an arb just around this mark, within seconds of each other. The book I bet Durden with settled as loser. The book I bet Flick with voided after the event. So now I need to try and figure out start time so I can argue to have my Flick bet paid out.

    Thanks That's great news. As I'm not using this service, can you guide me to where I can find this info on the Don Best site.

    Voided bet was placed 1.41 so that's good that Don Best says 1:42.

    If the book subscribes to an incident feed provider they wont care what Don Best or anyone else says.


    When was the bet voided? Before the result was known or after?

    I know that's no guarantee, but the more proof I have of 1:42 the better.
    Bet was voided after result was known. I have a contact there so will talk to them on Monday.

    If they voided after the match it's worth asking, but I'd suggest not mentioning it's a busted arb issue.

    They know I'm arbing and are fine with that. If not for that, yes I wouldn't bring that up

    I wish it was only 10 bucks.

    BeatPete, I'm signing up for a Don Best trial so I can take this screenshot myself. I'm waiting for them to activate my account, but when they do will this info on start time still be on there or do they delete it shortly after an event? (I don't know if the book will accept something c+p'ed on a message board, so figured I'll try to get it directly from the source). Plus it doesn't hurt to check them out anyway as I've never used Don Best before.

    Got screwed at bookmaker once when they were clearly wrong and voided the bet claiming it happened when. At least with that book they didn’t care about any proof I had to the contrary.

    Also worth mentioning, at 4:41:58 Durden gets a take down and gets Flick’s back and probably became a favorite.
    Do you have exact time stamp of your bets?

    Thank you for this info. I will post updates once I've talked to and heard back from the book that voided.

    You should be able to find old notifications. For all UFC fights they do notifications for when the fight starts and when it finishes. With time stamps on everything.
