Johnny Walker has announced intentions to transition to the heavyweight division. Walker stated he sparred with Francis Ngannou while having approximately 20 kg weight difference and felt comfortable working with him. He explained that cutting weight severely impacts his training, causing dizziness and low energy due to lack of carbohydrates. Walker believes he would feel much better competing at heavyweight where he could train properly without the constraints of weight cutting. The light heavyweight contender is considering making the move to pursue better performance.
