Welcome back to the Sherdog Staff Pick 'Em league, where this week we will take our best swing at UFC Fight Night 173: Brunson vs. Shahbazyan, as the Ultimate Fighting Championship returns to its Apex facility in Las Vegas after a month in Abu Dhabi.
This week, there's plenty of faith in the undefeated, 23-year-old Edmen Shahbazyan, with 94 percent of the league picking him to pass the sternest test of his career to date in Derek Brunson. With a win over Brunson, it's safe to say the red-hot middleweight up-and-comer will graduate from prospect to contender.
