\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tJohnny Walker Makes Josh Hokit Prediction After UFC Vegas 124 Knockout<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n UFC heavyweight contender Johnny Walker believes future title challenger Josh Hokit is easy game for him.<\/p>\n After knocking out Waldo Cortes-Acosta at UFC Vegas 124, Walker now wants to serve as a backup fighter for the UFC 334 main event this weekend, which features a heavyweight title clash between champion Ciryl Gane and Hokit.<\/p>\n Ciryl Gane Reacts To UFC 334 Title Bout Against Josh Hokit. [Image via UFC on X]<\/p>\n As discussed earlier on LowKick MMA, Walker told MMA Fighting earlier today that he would ideally fight in February or March next year and would love to take on \u201cThe Incredible Hok\u201d if the undefeated fighter loses to Gane.<\/p>\n The 34-year-old believes he is already ready to fight Hokit. While Walker acknowledged that the 28-year-old has decent wrestling, the Brazilian believes Hokit is still incomplete in the striking and jiu-jitsu departments, making Hokit a favorable matchup for him. Walker said:<\/p>\n \u201cI think Hokit has good wrestling, but his jiu-jitsu probably isn\u2019t that good. And his striking isn\u2019t crazy either. So I think that would be an excellent fight for me. He\u2019s also light. He\u2019s not that big.\u201d<\/p>\n Johnny Walker, while breaking down how he would perform against Josh Hokit if they ever lock horns, added:<\/p>\n \u201cIf he takes me down, I\u2019ve got plenty of jiu-jitsu. I\u2019ll sweep him; I\u2019d catch him on the ground. And if he wants to stand and trade, I\u2019d knock him out too. It\u2019s going to be a tough fight for him.\u201d<\/p>\n Check out Johnny Walker\u2019s comments about Josh Hokit below:<\/em><\/p>\n Walker has been unstoppable since moving up to the 265-pound division. However, he is still nowhere close to a title shot. <\/p>\n After UFC 334: Gane vs. Hokit concludes, Alexander Volkov will most likely become the next title challenger. Meanwhile, the UFC 335 bout between Alex Pereira and Sergei Pavlovich could also play a key role in determining the next heavyweight title challenger.<\/p>\nJohnny Walker Says He Can \u201cCatch\u201d Josh Hokit On The Ground Or \u201cknock him out too\u201d<\/h2>\n
