Before the fight, Buckley made a surprise announcement. In a video posted on his Instagram, ‘New Mansa’ declared that D.U.S.T self-defense star, Commander Dale Brown, would be in his corner. This left everyone in the MMA community bemused. However, after the win over Alhassan, he revealed the reason for having him in his corner.

He said, “Yes sir, I know exactly what to expect. When I realized the UFC wasn’t promoting like it should. They probably promoted it well at the end, but I made sure all the eyes, you see, I got my man right here. Come here, Dale, come here. In here to promote this fight.”

“I probably never had as many people watching this fight. You got DJ Khaled out there, Snoop Dogg, all the celebrities watching both kings in here. Both knockout artists go to f**k the world and show that we can go three rounds.”
Brown is a viral star, and many huge names have imitated what he does in his videos. Having him in his corner definitely helped Buckley attract more attention for his fight.
