Joaquin Buckley’s knockout

Joaquin Buckler won the knockout of the year award after a ninja-style spinning kick knockout against Impa Kasanganay on October 2020. Buckley is on a two fight winning streak.

Buckley was involved in an interview on Fight Island about his knockout and he jokingly said that in 10 years he might get tired of answering people about his KO. People were comparing his knockout to the legendary “Showtime kick” of Anthony Pettis.

When Buckley was asked about the same he commented “I got the knockout. That’s all I gotta say.” It is only natural for him to enjoy all the attention he’s getting and obviously enough this puts him in a spotlight and if he keeps on performing like this then he might turn into a big name pretty soon.
