TAMPA, Fla. – UFC on ESPN 63 headliner Colby Covington wants to show that he’s still among the best at 170 pounds.
Covington (17-4 MMA, 12-4 UFC) takes on the streaking Joaquin Buckley (20-6 MMA, 10-4 UFC) in Saturday’s welterweight main event (ESPN2, ESPN+) at Amalie Arena.
In his past outing at UFC 296, Covington fell short in his third attempt at undisputed gold when he lost a unanimous decision to Leon Edwards. Covington broke his foot early in the fight and has something to prove to those writing him off after that performance.
