While 2020 has been a rough year on most, Joaquin Buckley has certainly made the most of it and now wants to kickstart his 2021 campaign with by playing out a local rivalry.
Buckley followed up his KO of the year nominee of Impa Kasanganay with a second-round stoppage win over Jordan Wright at November’s UFC 255 event. “New Mansa,” who improved his promotional record to 2-1, used his time following his second straight finish to once again call out James Krause.
After his viral KO of Kasanganay in October, Buckley joined MMA Fighting’s What the Heck and called for a fight with Krause, but didn’t give a lot of context to it.
