Look: Joaquin Buckley gets nasty hematoma in UFC fight
Joaquin Buckley won his UFC fight on Saturday night, but he has a few nasty injuries to recover from.
The 27-year-old middleweight beat Antonio Arroyo with a third-round knockout at the UFC Apex in Nevada. He took a knee to the ribs but then fought back with a couple of big right hands that sent Arroyo to the mat. Buckley then jumped on top and pounded his opponent before the fight was called.

He didn’t seem to be bothered by the hematoma.
Buckley is now 13-4 as a pro MMA fighter and 3-2 in his UFC career. He won Performance of the Night for his victory. Last year he drew our attention with an incredible knockout in the UAE.
