VIDEO: Corey Anderson Makes Massive UFC 244 Statement With TKO of Johnny Walker
By Mark Powell
After nearly retiring and insisting UFC didn't even want him to succeed or get a chance at a title fight, Corey Anderson put on a show and made a huge statement in the process. At the World's Most Famous Arena, Anderson put Johnny Walker on his back early, finishing the job once Walker's lower body was clearly suffering from some sort of injury. Walker never stood a chance.

Walker's claim that he'd pose a true challenge to Jon Jones seems...ill-advised to say the least. If he can't handle Anderson's punches, Jones would have a field day with this guy.
As for Anderson, Dana White and Co. may have no choice but to ticket him for bigger fights moving forward. The man has earned your respect, whether you like it or not.
