Predict the next champion for each division and the year it will happen

[Bear Trapp]

125: TJ Dillashaw 2019
135: Cody Garbrandt 2018
145: Khabib Nurmagemedov 2020
155 A newcomer 2023
170: newcomer 2021
185: Very Hard to say. I need proof that Whittaker can return and look the same.
205: Alexander Gustafsson 2019/2020 depending on when DC actually retires. The one I'm most confident on.
265 Hard to say. Depends if Stipe can beat Blaydes and Volkov. We know he has had trouble with rangey fighters in the past.
