Colby Covington got the final word in his grudge match with Jorge Masvidal last night (Sat., Mar. 5, 2022) at UFC 272 live on ESPN+ PPV from inside T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada, when “Chaos” outlasted “Gamebred” with a unanimous decision win in their welterweight main event.

Masvidal landed a few good leg kicks early on before Covington pinned him along the cage and secured a few brief takedowns. Covington eventually kept top control and threatened with chokes and punches. Masvidal went back to his kick attacks to start the second before Covington pinned him along the cage again and accidentally landed a low blow. Once the action started again “Gamebred” got a little busy with his hands as Covington kept looking to get inside. Covington did mix in a sharp jab and powerful left hook counter towards the end of the frame.

Covington went back to the well in the third and dragged Masvidal to the ground with relative ease. “Chaos” stacked Masvidal up and landed hard body shots and sharp elbows to the face. Masvidal did well to keep himself out of serious danger, but Covington was a human blanket. He didn’t allow Masvidal to breathe and it started to break “Gamebred” down. Covington scored some blistering punches along the cage in the fourth round, but Masvidal was doing really well to defend the takedown. Out of nowhere Masvidal clipped Covington with a right hand counter and hurt “Chaos” pretty badly. Covington was able to recover and maintain his forward pressure.

In the fifth and final round, Covington shot in for another takedown along the cage. This time Masvidal wasn’t able to return to his feet and “Chaos” banked valuable top control while landing some short punches and trying to end the fight with a choke. It was an impressive performance from Covington who looked like he could have went another five rounds when the final bell rang.

Maryna Moroz delivered big for her home country of Ukraine earlier tonight (Sat., Mar. 5, 2022) at UFC 272 live on ESPN+ PPV from inside T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada, when the women’s flyweight contender stopped Mariya Agapova via second-round submission (arm-triangle choke).

Moroz came out on fire and implemented a tremendous clinch game. The Ukrainian fighter was eventually able to secure a takedown and threatened with a tight rear-naked choke, but Agapova defended well and even scored some back control of her own towards the end of the first.

Moroz kept the pressure up in the second as she gained top control and landed brutal ground-and-pound. Agapova eventually lost position and it allowed Moroz to sneak in for the arm-triangle choke. It was her first finish since stopping Joanne Calderwood back in 2015.

After the fight, Moroz was understandably emotional as she addressed the ongoing war between Ukraine and Russia. The crowd gave her a loud ovation as she walked away with the biggest victory of her career.

Umar Nurmagomedov delivered the first finish of the night (Sat., Mar. 5, 2022) at UFC 272 live on ESPN+ PPV from inside T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada, when the undefeated prospect stopped veteran Brian Kelleher via first-round submission (rear-naked choke).

Kelleher did good in the early going to defend the takedown, but Nurmagomedov found a home for whipping leg kicks and a lightning-fast question mark kick. Eventually, Nurmagomedov was able to pin Kelleher along the cage and quickly grab a hold of his back. Once that happened Nurmagomedov locked in the rear-naked choke and made “Boom” tap.

Check out the final highlights below courtesy of UFC/ESPN:

Nurmagomedov, 26, pushes his undefeated MMA record to 14-0 and has now won his second-straight inside of the Octagon. There is a lot of hype surrounding Umar considering he’s Khabib Nurmagomedov’s cousin and the young contender is currently living up to his billing. It should be interesting to see what Nurmagomedov is able to do as he climbs the bantamweight rankings in style.
