Joaquin Buckley is making a habit of this.
In his first fight since his ridiculous spinning kick knockout that made the middleweight an overnight sensation six weeks ago, “New Mansa” again earned a $50,000 Performance of the Night bonus with a KO of Jordan Wright at UFC 255 on Saturday in Las Vegas.
Once again, the magic for Buckley came in round two as he walked Wright down and smashed him with a pair of hard punches that stopped the fight 18 seconds into that period.
Buckley has now won four of his last five fights, with all of those wins coming by way of KO/TKO.
