Magomed Ankalaev's Return Fight Ends In No-Contest
1 year agoMagomed Ankalaev was fighting for the first time since last December when he fought Jan Blachowicz to a draw for the light heavyweight belt. In his return fight at UFC 294, Ankalaev took on Johnny Walker in a potential title eliminator fight. Ankalaev started out strong as he got a takedown and had over a minute of control. However, just over three minutes into the first round, Ankalaev threw an illegal knee to Walker's head and the fight was stopped. After the doctor didn't clear Walker, the fight was ruled a No Contest. It's likely the two will run it back in the very near future.
