UFC Atlanta Preview Show | Can Kamaru Usman Halt Joaquin Buckley's Rise In Long-Awaited Return?

MMA Fighting

Former UFC welterweight champion Kamaru Ssman returns to the octagon for the first time in nearly two years in the main event of UFC Atlanta as he faces Joaquin Buckley in a pivotal matchup. Can Usman make one last run at the welterweight title, or does Buckley's impressive run continue?

Ahead of Saturday's UFC Fight Night Card, MMA Fighting's Mike Heck and E. Casey Leydon preview the card, the main event between Usman and Buckley, talk what's at stake for both fighters, and what Usman's future could look like if he loses his fourth consecutive bout. Additionally, they'll discuss the co-main event between former champ Rose Namajunas and Miranda Maverick, if either can get into the immediate title discussion with a win, other fights that have our attention on the card, and much more.
