Dominick Reyes stated that a victory over Johnny Walker could position him as the next contender for the light heavyweight championship. Reyes believes that an impressive performance in this bout would warrant a title shot against whoever holds the belt after the current champion situation is resolved. The post includes a poll asking fans whether this is a viable scenario or if both potential title rematches are unnecessary. Reyes is looking to use the Walker fight as a springboard back into title contention after previous setbacks.
