Athletistic/ Boxing. The second number in the UFC light heavyweight ranking, Russian Magomed Ankalaev, spoke about his opponent, Brazilian Johnnie Walker, with whom he will fight on October 21 at the UFC 294 tournament in Abu Dhabi (UAE).
“I know he’s a very brilliant fighter who fights. He tries to do what he has – it’s a non-standard striking technique. I can’t speak to his weaknesses. Is he a problem in the fight? I can’t say. I don’t think anyone in my weight class can show me anything in the fight. I will try to do my best to win sooner than expected. The meeting will be very spectacular,” Anklaev said.

Ankalaev, 31, had his last fight against Jan Blachowicz in December 2022 at UFC 282.
