Welcome back to the Sherdog Staff Pick 'Em league, where this week we limp across the finish line of the Ultimate Fighting Championship's second weekend at Yas Island, with UFC Fight Night 172: Figueiredo vs. Benavidez 2, also known as "Fight Island 2."
If you follow this contest, you know that we're limping because Wednesday's card was an absolute disaster for the league, with several pickers going 0-for-6 and the league as a whole getting a miserable 40 percent of the picks correct. Well, we can only go up from there. We hope. At any rate, all six of the picks for Saturday's card are fairly one-sided, all the way up to the main event, where a strong majority favor Deiveson Figueiredo to finish what was started in his first meeting with Joseph Benavidez five months ago.
Without further ado, here are the Sherdog staff picks for UFC Fight Night 172.
