UFC on ESPN 63 live results: Colby Covington vs. Joaquin Buckley

It’s the final UFC event of 2024 as the Octagon visits Tampa, Florid, for the first time in five years for UFC on ESPN 63 at the Amalie Arena. The main event will be five rounds of welterweight action as Colby Covington returns on short notice after a year-long layoff against rising contender Joaquin Buckley. Covington hasn’t fought since a decision loss to Leon Edwards in a title fight last December, while Buckley is looking to score his sixth straight win. The co-main event is an exciting featherweight matchup as Cub Swanson looks to keep his career going with another win as he battles Billy Quarantillo. Also on the main card is a battle of ranked flyweights as Manel Kape takes on Bruno Silva; a light heavyweight fight putting Vitor Petrino against Dustin Jacoby; and a bantamweight bout between knockout artist Adrian Yanez and undefeated Daniel Marcos.
