Despite some discussion and debate, the staff all agreed on the picks for the co-headliner. Heavyweight Travis Browne (15-1-1 MMA, 6-1-1 UFC) got the nod over Fabricio Werdum (17-5-1 MMA, 5-2 UFC) in the headliner, and bantamweight Miesha Tate (13-5 MMA, 0-2 UFC) was the consensus choice over fellow co-headliner Liz Carmouche (9-4 MMA, 1-2 UFC).
We’re split on the rest of the main card, though, with lightweights Donald Cerrone (22-6 MMA, 9-3 UFC) and Edson Barboza (13-1 MMA, 7-1 UFC), as well as middleweight Brad Tavares (12-1 MMA, 7-1 UFC) and Yoel Romero (7-1 MMA, 3-0 UFC), getting four votes each.
