Joaquin Buckley says Rampage Jackson and King Green pushed him into streaming
Buckley filmed content in 2023 but never posted it because he "didn't trust" himself. He headlines UFC Edmonton against Mike Malott on Saturday.
Joaquin Buckley says Quinton "Rampage" Jackson and Bobby "King" Green pushed him to start streaming, three years after he first filmed content and never posted it.
Buckley, who headlines UFC Edmonton against Mike Malott on Saturday, told MMA Fighting he shot material around UFC Jacksonville in 2023 but kept it to himself. "I didn't trust myself, you know what I mean?" he said. "I wasn't confident within myself at the time of what I was doing and really trying to figure it out."
He has now launched his own channel on Kick after watching Jackson and Green do it. "They motivated me to do it, but I was like, if they can do it, I know I can, man," he said.
