Joaquin Buckley

Joaquin Buckley made it three-in-a-row at UFC Atlantic City, pummeling No. 11 ranked contender Vicente Luque en route to a second-round TKO.

Looking to finally break into the welterweight top 15, ‘New Mansa’ came out firing on all cylinders, looking to land a one-hitter-quitter on his Brazilian opposition. The striking exchanges were fairly even throughout the first five minutes, but Buckley began to pull away in the second with his signature power.

Looking to close the distance, Luque moved in, but instead of attempting to take Buckley to the mat, he pulled guard, dragging Buckley on top of him. Leaving his guard open, Luque could do nothing, but cover up as the St. Louis native unleashed an onslaught of strikes on the mat. The referee gave Luque every opportunity to improve his position. Failing to do so, the bout was stopped just past the halfway point of the round.

Joaquin Buckley vs. Vicente Luque

Official Result: Joaquin Buckley def. Vicente Luque via TKO (ground and pound) at 3:17 or Round 2.

With the decisive victory over Vicente Luque, Buckley should have a number next to his name come Monday morning.

Nursulton Ruziboev picks up controversial First-Round KO against Sedriques Dumas - UFC Atlantic City

Nursulton Ruziboev picked up the 12th knockout of his mixed martial arts career at UFC Atlantic City, dispatching Sedriques Dumas in the first round of their main card clash.

Coming off a stellar 77-second knockout of Brunno Ferreira in his Octagon debut, Ruziboev was in complete control against Dumas, landing some heavy counter-right hands from the get-go. Following a striking exchange just past the three-minute mark of the fight, Dumas indicated that he was poked in the eye and attempted to get the attention of the referee.

It was then that Ruziboez moved in and uncorked an uppercut that sent Dumas crashing to the canvas near the cage wall. Ruziboev swarmed his opponent and dropped a series of bombs. With Dumas unable to do anything but cover-up, the referee stepped in and called for the stoppage.

Nate Landwehr storms back, scores epic First-Round knockout of Jamall Emmers - UFC Atlantic City Highlights

Nate Landwehr scored his fifth career win inside the Octagon, putting away the always-game Jamall Emmers in spectacular fashion at the UFC Atlantic City on Saturday night.

Going into the bout winning three of his last four, ‘The Train’ looked to be in a bit of trouble in the early going as Emmers kept his distance and proceeded to piece up Landwehr for much of the opening round. With blood streaming from the left side of his forehead, Landwehr continued working to close the distance and landed a perfectly placed uppercut with 22 seconds left in the first.

With Emmers clearly compromised, Landwehr poured it on and sent Emmers crashing to the canvas. From there, ‘The Train’ only needed to unleash a couple of hammer firsts before referee Keith Peterson had seen enough.
