MMAOddsBreaker.com has returned for 2016 and just like last year, we’re keeping a running tally of our staff’s fight picks for all major mixed martial arts (MMA) events. Everyone has a clean slate with the new year, and we’ve added one new staff member to the our special picks chart this time around. After 33 events thus far in 2016, Nick Kalikas is in first place with a 261-153 overall record (63.0%). Gabe Killian and Jay Primetown are tied for second place at 257-157. There was just one unanimous pick out of 13 fights in total (Alex Volkanovski). The most contentious picks were Marlon Vera vs Ning Guangyou (Vera 4 – Guangyou 4) and Kyle Noke vs Omari Akhmedov (Noke 4 – Akhmedov 4). Without further ado: UFC Fight Night 101
