The UFC’s light heavyweight division is getting some new blood on Saturday night.
After putting together a 6-0 run on the regional scene, including five first-round finishes and a 100% finish rate, New Haven, Connecticut native Julius Walker is set to make his UFC debut when the promotion heads back to Seattle for a loaded Fight Night card inside Climate Pledge Arena.
Speaking with Calf Kick Sports ahead of his promotional premiere in ‘Emerald City,’ Walker revealed that he was actually preparing for a heavyweight fight before getting the call to drop down to 205 for a clash with knockout artist Alonzo Menifield.
