Magomed Ankalaev gave his prediction for the fight with Johnny Walker

Former UFC light heavyweight title challenger Magomed Ankalaev has no plans to bring his upcoming fight against Brazilian Johnnie Walker to a judicial decision.

“My next fight will be the best – I will stop this guy in less than three rounds,” the Russian wrote on social media. “Johnny, be ready for war! Don’t think of giving up, please.”

The top welterweights’ first fight at UFC 294 in Abu Dhabi on Oct. 21 was ruled a no contest because Walker, who missed a banned knee strike from the Russian in the fourth minute of the first round, failed to convince a doctor that he was fit to continue.

The re-match between Magomed Ankalaev and Johnnie Walker will be the main event of UFC Fight Night 234, which takes place Jan. 13 in Las Vegas.

Earlier, current UFC light heavyweight champion Alex Pereira said he would be ready to defend his title against the Russian if he manages to defeat the Brazilian.
