“You’ve Got To Be Nervous If You’re Tom Aspinall” – Fighters & Fans React as Valter Walker Earns Another First-Round Heel Hook Win, Delivers Highlight Post-Fight Interview At UFC 321

Walker wasted no time in the fight, trying to pressure Sutherland and scoring a takedown in about a minute. From there, he quickly managed to find and isolate a leg, locking in the heel hook and earning another submission.

Following the fight, Walker buried the earlier performance from Chris Barnett, comparing him to a “chocolate Peppa Pig.” He then called out the man who beat Barnett, Hamdy Abdelwahab, suggesting he’d compare a much harder challenge than Barnett did.

This marked Sutherland’s Octagon debut after previously claiming the heavyweight championship in Levels Fight League.
