Welcome to Midnight Mania!
If Struggle Island has an linked slogan, it may well as perfectly be “strike when the iron is sizzling!”
Get Khamzat Chimaev, for example. “Borz” debuted with an totally dominant show, and UFC instantly booked him to struggle 10 days afterwards. He won once again in comparable fashion, which recognized himself as a main fighter to look at. A month or so later on, a brutal 1-punch knockout turned Chimaev into the sport’s most popular prospect.
Fortunes are switching speedily for a find number of up-and-comers.
Joaquin Buckley may possibly by now be the upcoming person to depart Abu Dhubi with a massive improve in recognition and attractiveness. He may well have dropped his shorter-discover debut to the really gifted Kevin Holland, but Buckley rebounded in pretty practically the greatest attainable way, scoring possibly the finest knockout of all time over Impa Kasanganay just a few days in the past (watch it in gradual-mo).
For each ESPN’s Brett Okamoto, Buckley will return opposite Jordan Wright at UFC 255 on Nov. 21. Undefeated at 11- (1), “The Beverly Hills Ninja” is a “Contender Series” solution who has finished all of his victories. All in all, it sounds like a fair match up for both of those Middleweights, as properly as a recipe for yet another highlight reel complete!
And lastly, it would be inappropriate to compose a fight announcement for Buckley without including the clip — this edit is the best but!

Their sportsmanship is inspiring.
