[SamuraiBro]

Well Ruziboev will never be anything

 

[GreenGorilla]

Yeah buckley won that, Ruziboev should never fight at WW in the first place.
Who is telling these 6'4+ guys to fight at WW?

 

[DecisionSplit]

Keith Peterson smelling of alcohol and cigarettes again?

 

[Sivo The Ram]

overall fun fight

 

[LoveMyMMA]

Imagine it's a split lmaooo

 

[Emporio Alnino]

i'm happy for buckley, getting the win in your hometown has gotta feel good.

 

[neomage2021]

Lol homie went for broke with the illegal ground kicks.

Which one was illegal? None of them were to the head

 

[Dr Fong]

Draw

10-9 Ruziboev
10-9 Ruziboev
10-8 Buckley

 

[BigGucciSosa]

Buckley learns how to throw a straight punch he might be a problem

 

[KDR by RNC]

SO? literally none of them were to the head

If you shoot at someone and miss its still attempted murder.

 

[flektarn]

SO? literally none of them were to the head

Yea and if a fighter has their fingers splayed out often enough a ref will pause the action and stop that dumb shit. Throwing kicks like that doesn't seem any different.

 

[CatchtheseHands]

Cause he was getting fucking battered

He was defending himself intelligently though. You can't just stop a fight cause a dude is getting battered but is responding.

 

[Blanqa Blanqua]

FINALLY IN!!!!!

you missed a crazy rollercoaster crash lol

 

[kingmob6]

Joaquim Buckley is going to be champ. There is no denying that.

he has a real real shot. I've been seeing it with every fight. He is getting very good.

 

[Flower2dPeople]

Cheating fuck. Ban.

Yeah but it really does open offensive options for the guy in the bottom. To balance it out, allow kicks/knees on downed opponents.

 

[Siver!]

Cause he was getting fucking battered

Yeah, but he wasn't done?

At no point was he done, and fuck home cooking.

The fight clearly was never over.

 

[Blastbeat]

Despite his nickname, Keith Peterson has been very nonsensical tonight. Why the hell didn't he take a point from Nursulton?

Eh, Buckley's got this decision in the bag. He beat up Nursulton really bad in the 3rd

 

[vinnie245]

Refs and Judges are usually shit but they are especially awful tonight...

 

[Siver!]

Surely that last round is a 10-8
Multiple near finishes

Yep, could be!
