Oh boy, “New Mansa” is at it again

It has been three weeks since Joaquin Buckley scored a massive win at UFC St. Louis over Nursulton Ruziboev and then made one of the worst post-fight callouts of all time (Conor McGregor). And ever since, “New Mansa” has been all over social media defending his callout.

However, late last week, Buckley out-did himself, claiming he’d knockout prime Georges St-Pierre.

“NGL [not gonna lie] if me and GSP fought at the same age( 30 ) I’d knockout the goat,” Buckley wrote on Twitter.

Unsurprisingly, he got absolutely cooked on Twitter:

Even UFC legend, Cub Swanson, piled on … and Buckley clapped back:

Kevin Holland — who knocked out Buckley in his promotional debut (watch highlights) — also hit his former opponent with a zinger.

St. Pierre turned 30 in 2011, the same year that he defended UFC’s Welterweight title a sixth time, breaking the promotion’s record for most defenses. He would defend the title three more times before taking a four-year hiatus from the sport (here’s why).

Professional fighters obviously have to be confident and believe they would defeat anyone, but “GSP” might be a little bit of a stretch for good ole’ “New Mansa.”Nevertheless, Buckley is riding a four-fight win streak since dropping to Welterweight.

He’s got a lot of work to do.
