One of the biggest grudge matches in the history of Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) will play out in devastating fashion later tonight (Sat., Mar. 5, 2022) at UFC 272 live on ESPN+ PPV from inside T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada, when Colby Covington meets fellow welterweight contender Jorge Masvidal in the main event.
But before the anticipated headliner gets underway UFC 272 will feature a slew of exciting matchups from start to finish. This includes Rafael dos Anjos’ co-main event bout with Renato Moicano, Bryce Mitchell’s important featherweight tilt with perennial contender Edson Barboza, and Kevin Holland’s UFC welterweight debut against “Cowboy” Alex Oliveira.
We will compile the best of the best below — with all video footage courtesy of UFC and ESPN — and will continue to share the action as it rolls in. Enjoy!
