UFC Atlanta: ‘Usman vs. Buckley’ Live Results and Highlights
The Octagon returns to Georgia for tonight’s UFC Atlanta event, a 13-bout fight card headlined by Kamaru Usman vs. Joaquin Buckley.

Usman (20-4 MMA) will enter tonight’s contest with hopes of snapping a three-fight losing skid. The former welterweight kingpin was most previously seen in action in October of 2023, where he suffered a majority decision loss to Khamzat Chimaev at UFC 294. ‘The Nigerian Nightmare’ earned his most recent victory in November of 2021, when he successfully defended the promotion‘s welterweight title with a unanimous decision win over Colby Covington.
Meanwhile, Joaquin Buckley (21-6 MMA) enters this evening’s headliner sporting a six-fight winning streak. ‘New Mansa’ was last seen in action this past December, where he scored a TKO victory over former interim title holder Colby Covington. A win tonight could put the streaking 31-year-old right into title contention.

Namajunas (13-7 MMA) will enter the bout looking to rebound, this after suffering a unanimous decision loss to Erin Blanchfield in her most recent Octagon appearance at UFC Edmonton this past November. Prior to that setback, ‘Thug’ had reeled off back-to-back wins over Tracey Cortes and Amanda Ribas respectively.
Meanwhile, Miranda Maverick (15-5 MMA) enters this evening’s co-headliner sporting a four-fight winning streak, her latest being a unanimous decision victory over Jamey-Lyn Horth this past December in Tampa Bay. The 27-year-old has gone 6-1 over her past seven Octagon appearances overall, with her lone loss in that time coming against streaking contender Jasmine Jasudavicius.
Also featured on tonight’s UFC Atlanta main card lineup is the return of former UFC bantamweight champion Cody Garbrandt who will be locking horns with Raoni Barcelos.
Cody Garbrandt (14-6 MMA) has not competed since suffering a submission loss to Deiveson Figueiredo at UFC 300 in April of 2024. That setback snapped a two-fight winning streak for ‘No Love’, who had previously earned Octagon wins over Brian Kelleher (KO) and Trevin Jones (Decision).
Meanwhile, Raoni Barcelos (19-5 MMA) currently boasts a two-fight winning streak, this after earning impressive wins over Payton Talbott and Cristian QuiƱonez. The 38-year-old Brazilian has gone 3-2 over his past five fights overall.
