Where these results come from. Each contest in the table was recorded from a named source, and for Velma Buckles that source is MuscleMemory. Open any contest above and that page names its own source and links to it where the source is still reachable. That archive no longer answers at the addresses we hold, so it is credited by name here and not offered as a link.

Amateur and other shows not counted above

8 results from amateur shows and other contests this archive does not class as professional. Every total on this page covers the professional career only, so these are listed here but never counted, and they have no contest page.

Opponents are ranked by how often they shared a stage and how big the stage was, not by reputation. A meeting is one contest where both competed in the same division and both were placed.

No win rate is shown. With 1 recorded contest result on file, a single placing would move the figure by twenty points or more, so the percentage would describe how much of this career the database holds rather than anything about the athlete. The counts above are neither rounded nor capped.
