UFC 272: Masvidal vs Covington, Picks, Odds, & Analysis | The MMA Vivisection PRELIMS SHOW

Zane Simon & Connor Ruebusch are here with the MMA Vivisection PRELIMS SHOW, breaking down a set of 8 bouts on this 13-bout UFC 272: 'Masvidal vs Covington' PPV event. "UFC 272 is a weird card. All on its own, in a vacuum, it’s definitely not bad. Colby Covington vs. Jorge Masvidal is exactly the kind of high-level grudge match that combat sports should feature. Rafael dos Anjos vs. Renato Moicano is a serviceably fine considering the circumstances. And Barboza vs. Mitchell & Holland vs. Oliveira should be fascinating style clashes with a solid potential for violence. But, in the new, increased-price PPV era it doesn’t quite have the big-event shine that many fans are going to demand." - Zane Simon For those fans who wish to dive deeper into the MAIN PPV CARD, check out that version of the MMA Vivi which already aired at 1PM Central today, Thurs., Mar. 3rd., 2022, right here on our SC channel. The MMA Vivisection is brought to you by 'The Fine Art of Violence', a collection of art and essays recapping the year in MMA by Chris Rini, featuring the most talented artists and writers in Mixed Martial Arts.
