The question is simple; who do you think will retain, or win, a title by this time next year?
125 - Benavidez. I think CCC will relinquish/get stripped of his FLW strap, and he'll focus on 135.
Edit: Just call me the prophet.

135 - Yan. He's really impressed me, and personally I think he beats Henry when they fight.
145 - Volkanovski. He just lit up Holloway convincingly, and I can't see any current contender that is better than Max, Aldo and Mendes, all three of whom Volk walloped.
155 - Khabib. No one's taking that belt until he retires.
170 - Usman. He's already beaten the rest of the top 5 except Jorge, who will likely get ragdolled when they fight.
185 - Costa. I find Israel impresses me more with every fight, but after surgery, the natty goat is coming back to break his skinny body and take that strap.
205 - Jones. As much as it pains me to say it, no-one really beats Jon in the cage.
265 - Ngannou. Stipe looked a tad older and slower in the second DC fight, and I can't see a third one freshening him up at all. Big Frank via brutal KO.
W115 - Zhang. Jedrzejczyk is the better all round fighter, but Zhang is just too god damn powerful for anyone in that weight class imo. How she makes the weight is beyond me.
W125 - Shevchenko. Easily the second best female fighter behind Nunes, and that's a damn close second.
W135 - Nunes. Not really any contenders that are likely to stand a chance against her.
W145 - ^^^^^^
Anyone agree/disagree?
