## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

# README

## UFC Stats Scraper - Fight Results, Strikes, Takedowns & Odds

**UFC data** as clean JSON, CSV or Excel - flat rows, ready for models and spreadsheets:

- 🥊 **Fights** - every bout with **winner, method** (KO/TKO, submission with the hold, decision type), **round and time**, weight class, card segment, bout order and **DraftKings odds**: opening and closing moneyline, rounds over/under
- 📊 **Fight stats** - one row per fighter per fight: **knockdowns, total and significant strikes** (by head/body/leg and distance/clinch/ground), **takedowns**, reversals, submission attempts and **control time** - plus the fighter's reach, height, stance, age, gym and the **method-of-victory odds** (KO/TKO, submission, decision)
- 📅 **Events** - every card with venue, city, number of fights and the main-event result
- 👤 **Fighters** - profiles: nickname, record, weight class, height, reach, stance, age, nationality, gym

Latest event, any date range or **a whole season** (including Dana White's Contender Series). Built for **MMA betting models, fantasy MMA, fight analytics, journalism and AI agents**. No API key, no browser.

### Pricing

Pay per row delivered - see the **Pricing** tab. A full season is roughly 50 events and 550-650 fights (twice as many fight-stat rows). Use filters, *Max rows* and the run's maximum cost to cap spending.

### FAQ

**Which events?** All UFC events on ESPN: numbered cards, Fight Nights and Dana White's Contender Series.

**How fresh?** Results and stats appear minutes after each fight; odds are DraftKings' as published on ESPN.

**Round-by-round stats?** Fight totals are included; round-by-round splits are not.

## MCP server setup

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
