UFC 198 predictions, preview, and analysis

The UFC heavyweight division is the most annoying weight class in all of mixed martial arts (MMA).

After Cain Velasquez held the 265-pound title hostage for nearly two years, he surrendered it to Fabricio Werdum who then responded in kind and sat out for 11 months. It's almost worth rooting for Stipe Miocic at UFC 198, set to go down inside Arena da Baixada in Curitiba, Brazil, on May 14, 2016, just so this insane cycle doesn't start all over again.

The good news is, we have a stacked pay-per-view (PPV) fight card that helps sort through some of the middleweight clutter.
