In the UFC Atlanta main event, Kamaru Usman, an underdog for only the third time in his UFC career, made a dominant return to the octagon after nearly two years away, delivering a classic performance against Joaquin Buckley. His decisive victory raises the question: is Usman now a serious contender to reclaim a UFC title?
On a post-fight show following Saturday`s UFC Fight Night, analysts Mike Heck and Alexander K. Lee discussed the event`s key moments. They provided reactions to Usman`s commanding win over Buckley, shared insights gained about both fighters, and analyzed Usman`s potential path back to a championship bout. The discussion also covered other notable fights from the card, including Rose Namajunas` victory against Miranda Maverick, Malcolm Wellmaker`s spectacular knockout, and the unusual circumstances surrounding the Rodolfo Bellato versus Paul Craig fight.
