The UFC 272 PPV main card is chugging right along in the featherweight division, where the promotion’s #11 ranked, Bryce Mitchell, defeated the #10 ranked, Edson Barboza, with a dominant unanimous decision. Mitchell dropped Barboza in the opening round before implementing his smothering ground attack. Bryce remains undefeated as he advances his record to 15-0. Also, in his post-fight interview, Mitchell stated that half of his fight purse, $45,000, will be going to help children in Arkansas with medical conditions. What’s not to love about “Thug Nasty?”
Barboza went after the legs of Mitchell right away with kicks.
