If you’re looking for some closely contested predictions, our UFC Fight Night 60 staff picks are going to leave you disappointed.
For Saturday’s event, which airs on FOX Sports 1 from Broomfield, Colo.’s 1STBank Center, there are clear-cut choices for all six main-card bouts.
That includes the headliner, where – despite moving up a weight class, fighting for the second time in a month, and meeting a highly respected striker – former lightweight champ Benson Henderson (21-5 MMA, 9-3 UFC) is an 8-1 choice over welterweight Brandon Thatch (11-1 MMA, 2-0 UFC).
The card also has three unanimous 9-0 picks: featherweight Max Holloway (11-3 MMA, 7-3 UFC) over Cole Miller (21-8 MMA, 10-6 UFC), welterweight Neil Magny (13-3 MMA, 6-2 UFC) over Kiichi Kunimoto (18-5-2 MMA, 3-0 UFC), and flyweight Ray Borg (7-1 MMA, 1-1 UFC) over Chris Kelades (8-1 MMA, 1-0 UFC).
Meanwhile, Patrick Walsh (5-1 MMA, 1-0 UFC) is the 6-3 choice over middleweight Daniel Kelly (8-0 MMA, 1-0 UFC), and lightweight Kevin Lee (9-1 MMA, 2-1 UFC) is a 7-2 pick over Michel Prazeres (18-1 MMA, 2-1 UFC).
