UFC 271: Adesanya vs. Whittaker 2 staff picks and predictions

The Bloody Elbow team has made its predictions for UFC 271, and everyone except Victor Rodriguez is picking Israel Adesanya to win his middleweight title rematch over Robert Whittaker. Anton Tabuena is alone in picking Tai Tuivasa over Derrick Lewis in the co-main. To see the latest betting lines for these fights, head over to DraftKings Sportsbook.

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.
