The UFC 272 fight card is official with a highly anticipated grudge match between former friends and teammates Jorge Masvidal and Colby Covington in the top spot.
The March 5 Pay-Per-View event features 12 bouts and Masvidal vs. Covington. Prelims will be shown on ESPN+, ESPN+, and UFC Fight Pass. The main event airs live on ESPN+.
After Max Holloway and Alexander Volkanovski were injured, the welterweight competitors were able to take over as headliners. Volkanovski’s next title defense was then moved to UFC 273, as was the originally scheduled co-headliner, a bantamweight title rematch between undisputed champion Aljamain Sterling and interim titleholder Petr Yan.
A UFC 272’s card also features a five-round, non-title fight featuring Rafael dos Anjos (lightweight) and Rafael Fiziev (thinweight). A featherweight matchup will see Bryce Mitchell, a submission specialist, take on Edson Barboza, a striking phenom.
