Our UFC 307 preliminary predictions focus on three bouts, including Joaquin Buckley vs. Stephen Thompson.
The UFC 307 main card is what will generate the most buzz, but the preliminary bouts always hold plenty of value. On Saturday, that value lies in Joaquin Buckley.UFC 307 takes place this weekend at the Vivint Arena in Salt Lake City, and the preliminary card is loaded with competitive fights — including a sleeper candidate for fight of the night in Joaquin Buckley vs. Stephen Thompson.
They often face an opponent without enough flaws to exploit, or they’re indifferent to the outcome knowing it’s their last fight regardless. Joaquin Buckley is 4-0 since dropping down to welterweight from middleweight, and he’s looking every bit like a future title contender. In Thompson's UFC career, he has only won one fight where he was taken down — the Kevin Holland fight — where Holland allowed him to get back on his feet. Buckley is hungry and motivated to break into the welterweight elite, and he won’t extend the same courtesy when, not if, he takes Thompson to the ground.: Our team of experts has thoroughly researched and handpicked each product that appears on our website.
