Anthony Smith vs Johnny Walker Preview
Sat, May 13th. 21:00 (UK time)
Anthony “Lionheart” Smith is no stranger to the UFC Octagon, having fought some of the best in the division. With a professional record of 36-17, Smith is a well-rounded fighter with impressive striking and grappling abilities. His most recent fight was a TKO loss to Magomed Ankalaev. He wasn’t out cold, but he was receiving a lot of strikes on the ground and it didn’t look like he was willing to continue.
Johnny “Johnny Bravo” Walker, on the other hand, has been with the UFC since 2018. With a record of 20-7, he has fought in 10 UFC bouts, winning 6 and losing 5. Walker is known for his explosive striking and powerful kicks. He is coming off an impressive knockout win over Paul Craig in his most recent fight.
This fight is an interesting stylistic matchup between two fighters with different strengths. Smith is a well-rounded fighter who can finish fights both on the feet or the ground. However, his chin has been suspect in recent fights, and he has been knocked out 10 times in his career so far.
Walker is a dynamic striker who is always looking to finish fights. He has a wide range of strikes at his disposal, and his unorthodox style can be difficult for opponents to prepare for. However, he has shown some vulnerability to takedowns and grappling in his losses. This has changed recently as his takedown defence has improved. We don’t expect him to struggle against Smith in this department, a fighter who only averages 0.41 takedowns per 15 and has a TD accuracy of 27%.
