Former UFC title challenger Stephen Thompson shared his prediction for the upcoming fight between former division champion Kamaru Usman and Joaquin Buckley.

“Joaquin is currently on the rise. This guy is hungry, and his wrestling is at an excellent level. Everyone saw this in the fight against Covington.

I think Kamaru will act in his usual style — throw jabs and try to come in. And Buckley — you never know what to expect from him. He evolves from fight to fight, and that makes the upcoming match very interesting. I lean towards Joaquin winning,” quoting Thompson MMA Junkie.

Recall that the Usman and Buckley fight will headline the UFC on ESPN 69 tournament, which will take place on Sunday night in Atlanta, USA.
