Johnny Walker is ranked #12 at UFC light heavyweight — close enough to smell the title, dangerous enough that champions don't say his name too loudly.
This is power striking with numbers behind it — 17 KO/TKO wins, 3.9 significant strikes landed per minute. Opponents don't get outpointed so much as dismantled. Add a 82" reach, and the puzzle gets harder still.
The last fight went to Dominick Reyes (Decision - Split) — a setback, and the interesting question is always what a fighter does with one.
