UFC 272: Colby Covington vs. Jorge Masvidal - Unofficial Awards
Jalin Turner punching Jamie Mullarkey at UFC 272UFC 272 came and went, leaving a bit of an unsatisfactory feeling. Not that the card ended up being bad, but it was missing that extra element PPV’s tend to carry with them. It wasn’t the lack of a title fight; plenty of cards featuring a title on the line have missed that extra intangible too. Perhaps it was the domination in the main event by Colby Covington that left the supposed blood feud between himself and Jorge Masvidal feeling manufactured. Typically, when you hate someone as bad as they say, you fight stupidly. Covington’s performance was cool and calculated. The end result was fully satisfying.
