The final UFC fight of 2024 is a wrap, and Joaquin Buckley was the last man to get his hand raised inside the octagon with a UFC on ESPN 63 victory over Colby Covington.
Buckley (22-6 MMA, 11-4 UFC) improved to a stellar 6-0 since dropping to welterweight in May 2023 when he scored the third-round doctor’s stoppage TKO win over former interim divisional champion Covington (17-5 MMA, 12-5 UFC) at Amalie Arena in Tampa, Fla., and as a result raised his stock higher than it has ever been in his octagon tenure.

Chaels quiet because he realized that Colby does actually suck

Colby Covington doing this big entrance that played to crickets and then going out sad against a mid-level guy in the main event of a random TV card is the perfect end to his silly career.

20-18 Buckley.
He's picking him apart on the feet thus far. Likely takedown or bust for Covington.
