Final picks. This bout order makes much more sense than the original one, so I feel like I'm in the minority for appreciating it this way.
Diaz vs Ferguson should be a barnburner, and I think Tony can do enough to edge a split decision. It's extremely close, and I'm not sure who to root for, but I think Tony has this.
Chimaev left a bitter taste in everyone's mouth but he should still basically steamroll Holland, provided that he fights smart here. If he chooses not to give into his emotions, he'll take Holland down and wash him right away.
Li deserves a massive payday is all.

Either of these guys can win
Chimaev vs. Holland
Khamzat Chimaev, SUB, R2
Kevin is my favorite fighter but if I had to choose, khamzat will win. Kevin still has a very possible path to victory though.
