Joaquin Buckley didn’t get the finish he wanted but he still carved up Colby Covington in dominant fashion to win the UFC Tampa main event.
From the first minute until the last, Buckley dominated Covington on the feet, pummeling the veteran welterweight contender with devastating combinations throughout. An uppercut from the first round actually opened a nasty gash over Covington’s eye that just started pouring blood down his face and the cut only got worse with each punch landed.
