Johnny Walker has disclosed his intention to transition to the heavyweight division. He cited his training and sparring experience with Francis Ngannou, noting that even while on a diet with a 20kg weight difference, he was able to work comfortably with the former heavyweight champion. Walker explained that he would feel much better at heavyweight because dieting negatively impacts his training, causing dizziness and low energy due to insufficient carbohydrates. The move would represent a significant shift in his UFC career as he seeks better performance without the constraints of weight cutting.
