Uran SatybaldievvsJulius Walker

Now he's dealing with Jacoby's power striking and knockout ability. Walker's got momentum but that split decision loss to Alonzo Menifield in February shows he can be pushed to the brink. Dude threw 200 strikes in that fight and still came up short on two cards. The new opponent brings a totally different challenge. Walker's volume and wrestling could be key factors, especially since he hit 6 of 10 takedowns against Cerqueira and kept constant pressure.

But Jacoby's experience and finishing power make every exchange dangerous. Walker's more technical and well rounded, Jacoby's more explosive and proven at this level. Both fighters made weight without issue and looked sharp at the ceremonial weigh ins, with Walker appearing noticeably bigger and more filled out at 205 pounds. The light heavyweight division is heating up and this fight could be a stepping stone for Walker to crack into the rankings conversation with a statement performance against a recognized name.
