Who You Got? Sherdog Staff Pick 'Em: UFC 260
Welcome back to the Sherdog Staff Pick 'Em, where this week we will
attempt to pick the winners and losers for UFC
260.
The loss of the Alexander Volkanovski vs. Brian Ortega co-main event was a crushing blow to the card, but the headliner between Stipe Miocic and Francis Ngannou remains a huge deal, for the present and immediate future of the division of course, but also for both men's places in heavyweight history. Despite Miocic's dominant victory in their first meeting, he enters the rematch as that relative rarity: a defending champ and a betting underdog. The Pick 'Em league, however, is leaning towards the Ohioan to retain, turn back an incredibly dangerous foe a second time while notching another title defense, and perhaps set up a superfight to end all superfights against Jon Jones.
Here are the Sherdog staff picks for UFC 260: Miocic vs. Ngannou 2.
