Something new we at MMAOddsBreaker.com decided to do for 2014 is to keep a running tally of our fight picks for all major mixed martial arts (MMA) events. It all began with UFC Fight Night 34 at the beginning of the year and it continues with UFC Fight Night 39 today (April 11, 2014) which features a heavyweight battle between Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira and Roy Nelson. After eight events, James Lynch is now in a tie first place with Brad Taschuk, picking fights correctly at a 64.8% clip thus far this year, although everyone’s stats took a nosedive after UFC Fight Night 38’s historic underdog-heavy event. With four unanimous picks across the board on this eight-fight card, the standings could be in store for a shake-up. Without further ado:
