Following their performances at UFC 272, Bryce Mitchell and Marina Rodriguez have climbed in their respective divisions. Mitchell (15-0 MMA, 6-0 UFC) defeated Edson Barboza (22-11 MMA, 16-11 UFC) in a dominant performance on the main card of Saturday’s pay-per-view event. While he largely controlled the contest on the mat with a smothering grappling approach, he dropped Barboza with a crisp punching combination in the first round. In his first fight since Oct. 2020, Mitchell showed new wrinkles to his game and climbs up to the No. 9 slot in the featherweight divison.
