Steven Asplund targets Johnny Walker at UFC 335 with famous GSP line

Steven Asplund has set his sights on Johnny Walker, channeling a Hall of Famer in his callout to the Brazilian.

Steven Asplund aims to face Johnny Walker in December during UFC 335 at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. Following his knockout victory over Mick Parkin at UFC 332 in Salt Lake City, Walker has become Asplund's target. Asplund, who is 2-1 in the UFC since joining Dana White's Contender Series, paid homage to former UFC champion Georges St. Pierre by mimicking his famous callout of Matt Hughes from 2006.

He expressed his dissatisfaction with Walker's performance, stating, "Johnny Walker, I'm not impressed by your performance. And come on, man, meet me in December at T-Mobile, brother, you big bastard."
