The Bloody Elbow staff has made its predictions for UFC Fort Lauderdale, and unsurprisingly it’s a clean sweep for Ronaldo Souza over Jack Hermansson in the main event. If the curse is real and Hermansson wins, then I don’t know what to say. Meanwhile, the majority of us are picking Dimitrii Smoliakov over Greg Hardy, because why not?
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.
