UFC 272

The Nurmagomedov dynasty continues to seize the top Western league with confident steps, sending their best fighters there. Umar Nurmagomedov made his debut in the UFC just over a year ago, and at this stage of his career, having collected a number of titles in various sports, he has not known defeat. This time, he was picked up by a worthy opponent - Brian Kelleher, who has more than three dozen fights behind him.


The guys will meet as part of the UFC 272 preliminary card, and for each of them this is an ideal opportunity to express themselves: Umar will beat a veteran with a good track record in the cage, and Brian will beat an opponent without a loss, and even with a big name. Despite the fact that the American is a big underdog, so far, his young counterpart has not faced opposition of such a level, therefore, we can expect a very entertaining confrontation, which will not be easy for one of its participants.

In the history of mixed martial arts, there were many cases when two friends met in a cage and, despite a good attitude towards each other, rolled up excellent fights. But the case of Colby Covington and Jorge Masvidal is even more interesting - they have been friends for many years, trained, shared shelter and food, but now they are ready to tear each other apart, which, in fact, they will do in the main fight of UFC 272.


These two lead their performances in completely different ways, but each of them is extremely dangerous for any representative of the welterweight division. Given these factors, an incredible duel awaits fans and ordinary people, where, quite possibly, their conflict, which has been going on for several years, will be forever closed.
