UFC 242 ‘Take it to the Bank’ pick: Khabib Nurmagomedov or Dustin Poirier?

UFC lightweight champ Khabib Nurmagomedov makes his long-awaited return to the Octagon on Saturday when he faces Dustin Poirer at UFC 242 in Abu Dhabi.

What a fun one this should be.

If you follow me on Facebook or Twitter you know I like to give you my “Take it to the Bank” picks before big UFC events. I’ve been hot lately, and I feel like I nailed this one, too.

Check out the video above to see my pick and let me know who you are taking.

Oh, some more good news: The main card starts at 2 p.m. ET and the prelims are at noon ET.

Heck yeah, day-time UFC fights.

Enjoy it!
