Preview:
Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) is just one day away from the upcoming UFC Tampa mixed martial arts (MMA) event, set to go down tomorrow night (Sat., Dec. 14, 2024) from inside Amalie Arena in Tampa, Florida. UFC Tampa features a 170-pound main event between three-time title challenger Colby Covington and No. 9-ranked striking sensation Joaquin Buckley, a five-round headliner with major title implications for early 2025 and beyond.
Before we dive into the main and co-main events, which include the 145-pound scrap between featherweight veterans Cub Swanson and Billy Quarantillo, check out Andrew Richardson’s “X-Factor” breakdown for the rest of the UFC Tampa main card by clicking here.

Colby Covington has only competed five times over the last five years, putting together a 2-3 record during that span. In fact, the 36 year-old “Chaos” has not beaten anyone currently signed to the active UFC roster since out-wrestling Rafael dos Anjos back in June 2018. His last performance returned a listless 25-minutes of non-action against then-champion Leon Edwards in what inexplicably marked his third unsuccessful title fight. After the event, UFC CEO Dana White said “Chaos” looked “old” and “slow” and we now have to wonder if the aging welterweight is still a legitimate threat at 170 pounds. This upcoming fight at UFC Tampa should provide that answer. “I know I’m still an elite welterweight,” Covington said during the UFC Tampa media day (watch the replay here). “In the first 30 seconds [against Edwards] I throw a kick, I break my foot in three different places. So that’s not a reflection of who I am and how I fight. I was just compromised. It wasn’t my night and that happens. It’s one fight. I’ve had 22 fights. So, you’re going to have some hiccups here and there. I had a lot of adversity that I had to face in that fight. Saturday night, I look forward to proving those doubters wrong and silencing all my critics.”
Joaquin Buckley has been a nice surprise at 170 pounds at a time when the welterweight division has been undergoing a changing of the guard. In addition to Shavkat Rakhmonov and Ian Garry, fresh faces include Jack Della Maddalena and Sean Brady, among others, and Buckley fits in nicely among that new crop of up-and-coming contenders. “New Mansa” has managed to string together five straight wins — three by way of knockout — planting established veterans like Stephen Thompson and Vicente Luque along the way. Buckley is six years younger than Covington but has five more professional fights than his UFC Tampa counterpart, thanks in part to Covington’s inactivity over the last few years. Buckley is very fast and one of the strongest fighters in the welterweight division. His blinding speed, coupled with his accuracy, is what led him to five post-fight performance bonuses across his UFC career, including his “Knockout of the Year” against Impa Kasanganay. “New Mansa” is an underrated offensive wrestler and Covington has been taken down multiple times across his career, even by smaller fighters like the aforementioned Dos Anjos. I doubt we will see much of that from Buckley when he holds such a distinct advantage on the feet, though I don’t know if his muscular frame is built for five rounds, which means all “Chaos” has to do is survive the first two frames.
Buckley by knockout would be great for the division and karma for all the sh*t Covington has talked over the years, but he would need to be completely washed for that to happen. Despite his insufferable shtick, “Chaos” has championship cardio and a solid chin, along with enough of a wrestling advantage to take away his opponent’s kicks and keep him guessing between strike and shot. It pains me to say this, but I have a feeling Covington will make this look easy, finishing an exhausted Buckley late in the fight.
