For the first time in UFC history, two women’s titles will be on the line at the same event – and both champions are favorites of historic proportions.

Ronda Rousey (12-0 MMA, 6-0 UFC) puts her bantamweight title on the line against Holly Holm (9-0 MMA, 2-0 UFC) – and is a bigger favorite than she’s ever been, coming in as high as 20-1. Not surprisingly, Rousey is the unanimous choice of our MMAjunkie editors, writers and radio hosts to retain her belt.

In the co-main event, women’s strawweight champion Joanna Jedrzejczyk (10-0 MMA, 4-0 UFC) is as much as a 22-1 favorite against challenger Valerie Letourneau (8-3 MMA, 3-0 UFC). Jedrzejczyk is a 9-0 selection from our staffers and, like Rousey, also is the pick of MMAjunkie’s readers – leading the pack of all the main-card fighters in our polls this week.

Another unanimous choice from our crew is Mark Hunt (10-10-1 MMA, 5-4-1 UFC), who fights Antonio Silva (19-7-1 MMA, 3-4-1 UFC) in a heavyweight rematch. The two battled to a “Fight of the Night” majority draw in 2013 in Australia, though Silva failed a post-fight drug test for elevated testosterone.

Eight of our nine staffers believe Uriah Hall (12-5 MMA, 5-3 UFC) will beat Australia’s Robert Whittaker (14-4 MMA, 5-2 UFC) on relatively short notice in their middleweight fight, and the readers concur.

The heavyweight fight between Jared Rosholt (13-2 MMA, 5-1 UFC) and Stefan Struve (26-7 MMA, 10-5 UFC) that opens up the main card is the one contentious bout of the event. Five of our nine are picking Struve, and the readers agree, while four of nine like Rosholt in what is a very close fight from an odds perspective.

UFC 193 takes place Saturday at Etihad Stadium in Melbourne, Australia. The main card airs on pay-per-view following prelims on FOX Sports 1 and UFC Fight Pass.

Check out all the picks above. Additionally, leave your main-card picks below. As usual, MMAjunkie reader “IAMMA” is organizing the MMAjunkie Member Picks, where “sadowolf” is still leading both categories and looking to repeat his 2014 title for most wins.
