Colby has 2 wins in the last 5 years M8.

I agree with it.

Since 2023 and moving to WW Buckley is 5-0 with 3 knockouts. Colby is 0-1 losing a lopsided decision. He's also in his late 30s. Odds makers know what they're doing.


Colby might prove them wrong, but I don't think it's likely. Buckley is low key a bad matchup for Colby. He's hard to take down, has good cardio. He stays dangerous late in fights (see that Imavov fight in the third round ). And he's looked much better in recent years. His big question marks or weaknesses being his chin and his submission game, Colby just isn't a finisher.. so even if Colby starts doing his thing and getting takedown and control, Buckley will have alot of opportunities in a 5 round fight to turn the tables on him.


I think the takedown will not come easily. Buckley by TKO round 2 or 3 is my prediction.

Does desecrating corpses really count as winning?

Colby is washed. Guy was always the bridesmaid with Usman and ducked any legit competition for years after his 1st title shot.

I feel like its going to be the usual Covington performance. I hope I'm wrong.

Only if we're being nice.
