We want your predictions for Saturday’s UFC 216 event in Las Vegas.

Our staff picks feature includes the consensus picks from MMAjunkie readers. Simply cast your vote for each bout below, and we’ll use the official tallies that are registered by Thursday at noon ET (9 a.m. PT).

Those MMAjunkie MMA reader consensus picks will be part of the UFC 216 staff picks we release Friday ahead of the event. UFC 216 takes place Saturday at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. The main card airs on pay-per-view following prelims on FX and UFC Fight Pass.

(Note that we will update this story this week when the UFC makes official the fifth fight for the pay-per-view main card, so stay tuned for the update to cast your pick for that bout.)
