Valter Walker takes a 4-1 UFC record into this weekend, every fight contested at heavyweight. He debuted April 6, 2024, and lost a unanimous decision to Lukasz Brzeski. Since then, Walker has won four straight, each by first-round submission. He submitted Junior Tafa on Aug. 17, 2024, Don'Tale Mayes on Feb. 15, 2025, Kennedy Nzechukwu on July 12, 2025, and Louie Sutherland on Oct. 25, 2025. All four of his UFC wins have ended in the opening round by submission, and his only defeat came on the scorecards in his debut.
