Top American UFC welterweight Joaquin Buckley spoke about the transition of former lightweight champion Islam Makhachev to his category.
"Islam is moving to welterweight, and now everyone in the division dreams of fighting him. This is the most tempting piece. We haven’t crossed paths with Islam, but before our fight, he will learn a lot about me. I would be the worst nightmare for him since I can do what he fears the most. Dell Maddalena has many gaps that Islam can exploit," Buckley said in an interview with Parry Punch.
Recall that the last time Buckley appeared in the octagon was in December last year when he finished Colby Covington.
