Russian UFC fighter Magomed Ankalayev said he was convinced that to defeat the Brazilian Johnny Walker in the rematch, he won’t need more than three rounds.
The fight between Ankalaev and Walker in the light heavyweight category will be the main event of the UFC Fight Night 234 tournament, which will take place on January 13 in Las Vegas.
– My next fight will be the best. “I will stop this guy in less than three rounds,” the 31-year-old Russian wrote on a social network.
The first fight between Ankalaev and Walker, which took place in October at the UFC 294 tournament, was declared a no-fight because the Russian delivered an illegal blow to his opponent.
Ankalaev has 17 wins in his MMA career, one loss and one draw. His counterpart Walker had 21 wins and seven losses.
