Bloody Elbow's staff has made its predictions for UFC 198 in Curitiba, Brazil. Zane Simon, Nick Baldwin, and Stephie Haynes are going with Stipe Miocic to take the heavyweight title away from Fabricio Werdum. Only Victor Rodriguez and Stephie Haynes have Vitor Belfort over Jacare Souza in the co-main. None of us is picking Leslie Smith to beat Cris Cyborg.
Note: Predictions are entered throughout the week and collected the day before the event. Explanations behind each pick are not required and some writers opt not to do so for their own reasons. For example, if Victor Rodriguez entered all of his predictions on Tuesday without adding in any explanations, he has no idea if he's going to be the only one siding with one fighter for any given fight.
