Mick Maynard’s Shoes: What’s next for Johnny Walker after UFC Fight Night 234 loss?

(ALSO SEE: Mick Maynard’s Shoes: What’s next for Magomed Ankalaev after UFC Fight Night 234 win?)

Johnny Walker once again stumbled when presented with an opportunity to break through in the light heavyweight title picture Saturday at UFC Fight Night 234.

Walker (21-8 MMA, 7-5 UFC) suffered a second-round knockout loss to Ankalaev (19-1-1 MMA, 10-1-1 UFC) in their rematch at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas, bringing an end to the Brazilian’s four-fight unbeaten streak and sending him back to the drawing board in terms of the championship queue.

Fortunately for Walker, his typically exciting and unorthodox style still makes him a candidate for big matchups going forward.

Whom should he fight next? Watch the video above for thoughts and analysis on Walker’s future after UFC Fight Night 234.
