The Bloody Elbow staff has made its predictions for UFC 236, and even though both interim title fights look very competitive on paper, it’s overwhelmingly one-sided in the picks department. Everyone is going with Max Holloway to defeat Dustin Poirier in the main event (which obviously means Poirier will win), and only Shakiel Mahjouri is going with Kelvin Gastelum for the W over Israel Adesanya in the co-main event.
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.
