Believe it or not, flashy spinning attacks weren’t exactly a staple of Buzukja’s game at the time, but his quick learning abilities proved vital when it came to this 2019 knockout.
“In training, I never threw that elbow before. I was in the back room warming up, and my striking coach circled to my left and I threw it and was like, ‘Ooh, I like that,’” Buzukja said. “Then, in the fight, I jabbed the guy a few times, and saw him biting on it, so I faked the jab and threw the spinning elbow. I basically just walked him into it and it landed flush.”
