UFC 272: Colby Covington vs Jorge Masvidal – Timings, Full Card, Live Stream & TV Channel

It is finally time for ATT’s two hardened fighters to duke it inside the octagon and provide closure to this long-standing rivalry. Colby ‘Chaos’ Covington is arguably one of the best welterweights in the world, aside from the reigning champion, Kamaru Usman.

On the flip, Jorge Masvidal has only turned his career around in 2019 by adopting the persona of ‘Street Jesus’ and baptizing his competition inside the octagon. The two fighters used to be best buddies, and have shared countless hours with one another, both in the gym and outside of it.

Covington excels as a wrestler, whereas Masvidal likes to brawl and hates to take the fight to the canvas. The duo also had a different career in the promotion, which could have also played a key role in their fallout. Masvidal lost a number of important fights via decision but always remained a fan-favorite because of his brash personality and entertaining fighting style.

However, Covington wasn’t doing well with the fans, despite winning every single fight in UFC. Things got so bad for the mixed martial artist that the promotion was ready to cut him right after his clash with Demian Maia in Brazil.

The same opponent Masvidal failed to beat, but Covington walked through him easily. He even adopted the new persona of a villain, which, in terms of professional wrestling, is seen as a ‘Heel’ turn.

Since then, the duo has never seen eye to eye, as Covington’s stock rose, but his bond with his former best friend deteriorated. After calling each other out for over 2 years, and smack-talking about one another in the media, this rivalry will finally conclude in Las Vegas at UFC 272.

This isn’t the only major bout on the card, as Kevin Holland is all set to make his long-awaited welterweight debut against seasoned fighter, Alex Oliveira.

The night will also see ex-NFL athlete Greg Hardy go head-to-head against Sergey Spivak. In the co-main event, former UFC champion, Rafael dos Anjos will face the Brazilian Renato Moicano.
