UFC 272: What channel is the UFC fight tonight (March 5, 2022)?
UFC 272 will be the next pay-per-view event from the UFC and it has a horde of exciting fights lined up for the fight fans. The pay-per-view will take place from the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada.
The five-bout main card will be headlined by fierce rivals Jorge Masvidal and Colby Covington. Both welterweights twice fought for the 170 lb strap and lost. They will look to get back to another title shot by seeking a statement-making victory this weekend.
Taking the co-main event spot will be a 160 lb catchweight bout between UFC veteran Rafael dos Anjos and late-notice replacement Renato Moicano. Despite the short notice, the fight is still scheduled to be a five-round affair.
Several high-profile names offered to step in for the co-main bout, including Islam Makhachev and Tony Ferguson. However, it was Moicano who was chosen to replace original opponent Rafael Fiziev. 'Ataman' dropped out of the bout after a positive COVID-19 test.
In another exciting contest, Kevin Holland will take on long-time veteran Alex Oliveira in his first dance at 170 lb.
Also on the main card, highlight-reel finisher Edson Barboza will seek to end the undefeated run of young prospect Bryce Mitchell in a featherweight bout.
