MMAOddsBreaker.com has returned for 2015 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 three new staff members to the our special picks chart this time around. After nine events thus far in 2015, Vegas Matty has taken a stranglehold on first place with a 69-32 record (68.3%), while Brad Wharton is in second place at 66-35. There were three unanimous picks for this UFC Fight Night 63 event out of 10 fights (Shamil Abdurahimov, Clay Guida and Julianna Pena). The most contentious picks were the preliminary card bouts of Gray Maynard vs Alexander Yakovlev (Maynard 6 – Yakovlev 3), Lauren Murphy vs Liz Carmouche (Carmouche 6 – Murphy 3), and the main card bout of Dustin Poirier vs Carlos Diego Ferreira (Poirier 6 – Ferreira 3) and Jorge Masvidal vs Al Iaquinta (Masvidal 6 – Iaquinta 3). Without further ado: UFC Fight Night 63
