Joaquin Buckley got the signature win for his resume that he’s been looking for since dropping down to welterweight when he took out three-time title challenger Colby Covington on Saturday in the UFC on ESPN 63 main event.
Buckley (22-6 MMA, 11-4 UFC) moved to 6-0 since he left middleweight when he battered and bloodied Covington (17-5 MMA, 12-5 UFC) en route to a third-round doctor’s stoppage TKO at Amalie Arena in Tampa, Fla.
