Johnny Walker

Johnny Walker scored the biggest win of his career on Saturday at UFC Charlotte.

Both fighters came out relatively cautious, well aware of the power and skill that each man possesses. Things escalated near the two-minute mark when Smith fired off a big left that connected but ate a right hand in return that clearly rocked him. Walker showed restraint and continued to mix up his striking. With 90 seconds left, Smith got a little too aggressive and caught a right hand while moving in, but ‘Lionheart’ was able to change levels and secure a takedown to grind out the rest of the round.

Smith and Walker were much more conservative in the second round and they continued trading leg kicks throughout. Things got a little chippy between the two toward the end of the round when they began having a conversation in the middle of the Octagon. Fans hoping for a faster pace in the third round were left a little disappointed as neither man showed an interest in unloading their weapons.

In the end, Johnny Walker walked away with the victory, earning his third straight win inside the Octagon. Walker could find himself in the light heavyweight top five come Monday.

Official Results: Johnny Walker def. Anthony Smith via unanimous decision (29-28, 30-27, 30-27)

Kron Gracie

On Saturday night, Kron Gracie made his first appearance inside the Octagon at UFC 288. Looking to score his first win in the UFC banner, Gracie was matched up with Canadian standout Charles Jourdain.

Gracie came out with a predictable game plan; get the fight to the ground. That turned out to be much more difficult than expected for the Brazilian submission machine. As Gracie plodded forward looking to close the distance, Jourdain regularly lit him up with a series of solid strikes, targeting the head and body equally.

However, Gracie was able to routinely close the distance, opting to pull guard instead of searching for a takedown. Once he had Jourdain in his guard, Gracie offered little offense, simply content to hold position. Each time he was taken down to the mat, Jourdain was eventually able to work his way back up where he continued to dominate on the feet. After three rounds of fairly uneventful action, we went to the judges for a decision.

Official Result: Charles Jourdain def. Kron Gracie via unanimous decision (30-27, 30-27, 30-27)
