Making a return at UFC Tampa this weekend, surging welterweight contender, Joaquin Buckley has vowed to finish former interim champion, Colby Covington in devastating fashion — as the pair prepare to close out the promotion’s calendar for the annum.
Buckley, who currently boasts the number nine ranked welterweight contender, most recently featured at UFC 307 two months ago, landing a stunning come-from-behind knockout win over former two-time title challenger, Stephen Thompson.
As for Covington, the outspoken Clovis native will snap a year-long hiatus from the Octagon this weekend in ‘The Sunshine State’, most recently competing for the undisputed welterweight champion last December in a one-sided unanimous decision loss to former champion, Leon Edwards.
