UFC Shanghai Recap: Johnny Walker Stuns Zhang | Sterling Beats Ortega | Pavlovich Wins Again
Luke Thomas and Brian Campbell are live in the studio to break down the biggest news coming out of UFC Shanghai. First up, Johnny Walker rallied to stop Zhang Mingyang in the light heavyweight main event. At 33, did Walker show you any legitimate signs that the best run of his career could be right around the corner? The UFC Shanghai co-main featured Aljamain Sterling shutting out Brian Ortega. With a 2-1 record since moving up to 145 pounds, does Sterling have any leverage at all to ask for a title shot following this performance? In the UFC Shanghai undercard, Sergei Pavlovich outpointed Waldo Cortes-Acosta to keep pace near the top of the heavyweight rankings. Given the extreme lack of depth in the division, is there still one more run to a UFC title shot in the card for Pavlovich moving forward?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
