Ian Machado Garry vs. Joaquin Buckley headlines 2024 finale

A showdown of top-10 welterweights will close out 2024 in the UFC when Ian Machado Garry takes on Joaquin Buckley.

The fight is set to headline the promotion’s final event of the year, UFC on ESPN 63, on Dec. 14 at Amalie Arena in Tampa, Fla., the UFC announced Friday on social media.

Machado Garry (15-0 MMA, 8-0 UFC), No. 7 in the official UFC rankings at 170 pounds, will look for his third win of 2024 as he tries to maintain his perfect record. In 2024, Machado Garry has beaten Geoff Neal by split decision at UFC 298 and Michael Page by unanimous decision at UFC 303.

Buckley (20-6 MMA, 10-4 UFC), who’s ranked No. 9, will try for his fourth victory of 2024 as he looks to continue climbing the ranks of the division since he moved back down from welterweight in May 2023. Buckley’s wins in 2024 include two longtime staples of the division, Vicente Luque by TKO and most recently a knockout of Stephen Thompson.

With the addition, here’s the current UFC on ESPN 63 lineup:

FA Cup first round: The EFL sides in danger of an upset

FA Cup first round: The EFL sides in danger of an upset


Burton Albion are yet to win a single game in League One and are rooted to the foot of the table, seven points adrift from safety.

The Brewers are on a run of eight straight defeats in all competitions and their only victory so far this season came against Leicester City’s Under-21s in the EFL Trophy on 20 August.

Two months and 11 games of football have passed since then and despite being three divisions lower, Scarborough Athletic will surely smell blood when they arrive at Pirelli Stadium.

Burton do have a recent history of succumbing to lower league opposition, losing 1-0 away at Barnet, who were two tiers below in the National League, in the first round in 2020-21. They were also knocked out by League Two Grimsby Town in the third round in 2023.

Meanwhile, their National League North visitors have won five of their past eight matches in all competitions.

The Seadogs, led by former Manchester United, Middlesbrough and West Brom player Jonathan Greening, will believe they can inflict yet more misery on the managerless Yellow and Black Army.
