Johnny Walker is targeting former UFC middleweight champion Chris Weidman for his next fight.

Walker is coming off his first-ever loss in the promotion following a shock first-round TKO defeat to Corey Anderson at UFC 244 earlier this month.

Weidman, meanwhile, is also coming off a loss following an unsuccessful light heavyweight debut against Dominick Reyes last month.

“The All American” later stated he wasn’t sure if he would continue at light heavyweight or return back to his old division. However, he was certain about one thing — he has no plans on retiring anytime soon.

Walker is looking to take advantage of that as he called out Weidman on Wednesday:

“Hey @chrisweidman , that’s funny, I also want to fight in February or March! What a coincidence! What date do you prefer? Let’s dance! ?” Walker tweeted.

Weidman would respond soon after, though he remained unsure of whether he would keep fighting at 205.

“Hey ! Thanks for the call out! I will let you know when I decide what I wanna do next,” he replied.

It wasn’t the response Walker wanted but he thanked Weidman for the quick response in what ended a very respectful back-and-forth between the two fighters:

“Thank you for the quick answer champ! I’ll be waiting and ready for any date! See you soon ? #Godblessyou” Walker responded.
