UFC 272 hits our screens this weekend with Colby Covington and Jorge Masvidal set to meet at the T-Mobile Arena in Nevada, USA following a turbulent road to this event.

The bill was intended to be headlined by a trilogy fight between Alexander Volkanovski and Max Holloway, but the latter withdrew due to injury.

Several other bouts were tipped, but the high profile figures of Covington and Masvidal have the green light to put on a Welterweight exhibition.

The pair’s relationship has soured over the years, turning this one into a real grudge match with no love lost.

Covington is the N0.1 Welterweight challenger to Kamaru Usman’s throne, but has been defeated twice by the champion in the last few years.

Masvidal sits down in sixth and the experienced scrapper will be determined to boost his stock and float back into the elite pack with a victory here.
