This weekend's UFC Vegas 84 is set to feature a captivating rematch between Magomed Ankalaev and Johnny Walker, promising an intense battle in the light heavyweight division.

After their first encounter at UFC 294 in Abu Dhabi was prematurely halted, fans are eagerly anticipating this second face-off.

Ankalaev, who is on an 11-fight unbeaten streak in the UFC and has not tasted defeat since his victory over Anthony Smith at UFC 277, is universally acknowledged as a genuine championship contender in the 205-pound division.

His last bout, a split draw against Jan Blachowicz for the vacant light heavyweight title at UFC 282, showcased his formidable skill set.

On the other side, Walker had been riding a wave of success before his initial bout with Ankalaev, winning three consecutive fights.

The 31-year-old Brazilian displayed increased poise and patience in these matches while retaining his quick-finish ability.

Their first fight in October concluded controversially when Ankalaev, who was dominating the bout, landed an illegal knee on a grounded Walker, leading to a stoppage due to miscommunication with the ringside doctor.
