Tampa, FL plays host to the last UFC event of the year, as three-time welterweight title challenger Colby Covington battles streaking divisional phenom Joaquin Buckley. Coming off a disappointing outing against Leon Edwards at UFC 296, Covington returns from an almost one year layoff to try and put himself back into championship contention seemingly for the final time.
In his attempt to secure his first ever shot at the strap, however, Buckley will look to extend his five fight win streak since dropping down to the 170-lb division by knocking down another veteran of the division.
