UFC middleweight Joaquin Buckley has sent the fans in a frenzy with an announcement. In a video, the 13-4 fighter made a shocking revelation that no one saw coming.

Buckley is currently preparing to take on Abdul Razak Alhassan at UFC Fight Night 201. The event will take place on February 19, 2022, and Johnny Walker and Jamahal Hill will headline it. ‘New Mansa’ will feature on the opening fight of the main card, and he will have someone in his corner.

For his fight against Alhassan, Buckley will have D.U.S.T. self-defense star, Commander Dale Brown, in his corner. Brown is known for his viral self-defense videos. He is also one of the most famous personalities on social media right now. The UFC middleweight even visited the D.U.S.T school not so long ago and learned some moves.

While recently talking to TMZ sports, Brown said, “He thought of me as soon as they needed another cornerman. Super excited and honored to be chosen by a respected, talented pro-MMA fighter that was so impressed by my urban survival tactical training system after he tested it that he wanted me on his team as the first survival tactics’ cornerman.”
