We have you covered for all of tonight’s UFC Edmonton results, including the welterweight main event between Joaquin Buckley and Mike Malott.
Buckley (21-8 MMA) will enter this evening’s welterweight main event with hopes of snapping a two-fight losing skid. ‘New Mansa’ is coming off back-to-back unanimous decision losses to Sean Brady and Kamaru Usman respectively. Prior to those setbacks, Buckley had strung together six straight wins, an impressive stretch which included stoppage wins over Colby Covington and Stephen Thompson.
Meanwhile, Mike Malott (14-2-1 MMA) will be returning to action for the first time since retiring Gilbert Burns with a third-round TKO victory at UFC Winnipeg this past April. ‘Proper’ currently boasts a four-fight winning streak, which includes Octagon victories over Kevin Holland and Charles Radtke.
Nothing left to be said.
