Saturday will be a Super Bowl of sorts for MMA fans, as there are two great cards set.

UFC 220 features heavyweight and light heavyweight championship fights. Stipe Miocic defends his heavyweight title against top-ranked challenger Francis Ngannou, while Daniel Cormier puts his light heavyweight belt up against power-punching Volkan Oezdemir.

At Bellator 192, Douglas Lima defends his welterweight title on the Paramount Network (formerly known as Spike) against Rory MacDonald, while the heavyweight grand prix kicks off with Chael Sonnen taking on Rampage Jackson.

I make picks in all four of those bouts in the video above. Let us know who you think is going to win these fights in the comments.
