The Bloody Elbow team has made its predictions for Saturday’s UFC Moncton fight card, and most of us are picking Volkan Oezdemir to get back in the win column by defeating fellow light heavyweight contender Anthony Smith. As for the co-main event, even with the weight miss, everyone is going with Michael Johnson to take care of Artem Lobov on short notice.
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.
