BRASILIA, Brazil — Johnny Walker was hoping for a stand-up war with Nikita Krylov at UFC Brasilia on March 14. He ended up outwrestled en route to a decision loss inside an empty arena in Brazil.
He’s not as upset as you could have guessed, though.
“I’m happy – I fought three rounds,” Walked told the media at the UFC host hotel in Brasilia. “It was good for me. Fighting three rounds in the biggest promotion in the world, at UFC level, was great for me. That helped me evolve as an athlete and see where I need to work on.
