UFC 231 Predictions: Bleacher Report Main Card Staff Picks

At this point, even the fans are tired of talking about it.

Anyone with even a passing interest in MMA knows the long story behind this fight, how it was canceled in July after Max Holloway, who is the UFC featherweight champion, showed some strange symptoms during a nationally televised interview. How the root cause of those symptoms, at least according to Holloway, has still not been identified.

Five months have passed, and now the match finally appears (for the moment) ready to launch. If it does go down, it will be Holloway's first fight this year despite a total of four—count them, four—attempts.
