Heading into UFC 272, Bryce Mitchell scoffed at the traditional grappler vs. striker label before meeting Edson Barboza. He came to fight.
Despite those sentiments, Mitchell also stuck with what works.
Mitchell used his standout ground game to his advantage against Barboza, earning a dominant unanimous decision by scores of 30-25, 30-26 and 30-27 at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. With the win, Mitchell remains perfect in his overall MMA career.
