UFC welterweight Joaquin Buckley has issued a statement in the wake of his defeat to Kamaru Usman in the main event of UFC Atlanta.
Last Saturday night, Joaquin Buckley fell short in his attempt to pick up the biggest win of his career over Kamaru Usman. While he had a solid fifth round, the other four he largely spent on his back with Usman being able to completely control and dominate him with his wrestling.
Now, it’s time for Joaquin Buckley to go back to the drawing board. He’s an exceptionally talented welterweight and the division is wide open right now, but we imagine he’ll take some time to recover before heading back into the fire.
