The BE team has made its predictions for Saturday’s UFC 216 PPV in Las Vegas, Nevada. Only Eddie Mercado is picking Kevin Lee (who looked quite bad at today’s weigh-ins) to win the interim lightweight title vs. Tony Ferguson. Everyone agrees that Demetrious Johnson will beat Ray Borg, thus breaking Anderson Silva’s record for most title defenses in UFC history.
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 Phil Mackenzie entered all of his predictions on Wednesday 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.
