UFC 272: Will Colby Covington Versus Jorge Masvidal Be for the BMF Belt?

UFC 272 is just days away. Combat sports fans want to see a series of spectacular fights this weekend. The upcoming event is expected to be nothing less than a war in the octagon.

Former friends Colby Covington and Jorge Masvidal will headline the event. Their grudge fight will be one of the biggest bouts this year, and it isn’t even for a title. Both the fighters have fought Kamaru Usman and were unsuccessful in securing the undisputed welterweight belt. So a fight against each other makes sense. Plus, their rivalry makes the fight much bigger.

Who will fight at UFC 272?

Covington and Masvidal will, of course, be seen clashing. Apart from them, Rafael Fiziev and Rafael dos Anjos too were on the card. However, because of medical condition, Fiziev is out. Islam Makhachev has volunteered to step in as a replacement. So it would be interesting to see if this materializes.

Edson Barboza will clash with Bryce Mitchell for a featherweight bout. Kevin Holland will face Alex Oliveira and Serghei Spivac will fight Greg Hardy. All these athletes will fight on the main card.

Where will UFC 272 be held?

The PPV event takes place on March 5 at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada. Both Colby Covington and Jorge Masvidal have fought there before.
