The UFC is back this weekend with another UFC APEX show and we are back with another chance for BE readers to submit their picks. This time around you’ll pick winners for UFC Vegas 72, which is headlined by Song Yadong vs. Ricky Simon.

Every reader who locks in their picks will be added to our year long standings for a chance to win prizes at the end of the year. We’ll be giving away something special to the overall champion, but also prizes for runners up and those who have the most bonus points or the best single record for a single event (so if you turn up once and go 15-0 and never play again, you could win something).

This competition is only open to paid subscribers of this Substack. The paid subscribers here are literally funding Bloody Elbow’s operations and paying for unique, thought-provoking and envelope-pushing analysis, editorials and investigations. To everyone who has paid a subscription, thank you so much for supporting our work.
