Johnny Walker has discussed his plans to transition to the heavyweight division. Walker shared that he has trained and sparred with Francis Ngannou, and even while on a diet with about 20 kg weight difference, he was able to work comfortably with the former heavyweight champion. Walker explained that he would feel much better at heavyweight because his current diet prevents him from training properly. He cited issues such as dizziness and low energy due to lack of carbohydrates as reasons why the weight cut is hindering his performance. Walker believes the move to heavyweight would allow him to train and compete at his best without the physical toll of cutting weight.
