Steven
\nAsplund<\/a> has set his sights on Johnny
\nWalker<\/a>, channeling a Hall of Famer in his callout of the
\nBrazilian.<\/p>\n

Walker (23-10, 1 NC) made his
\nUltimate Fighting Championship<\/a> heavyweight debut against
\nMick
\nParkin<\/a> at UFC
\n332<\/a> on Saturday in Salt Lake City. Walker knocked out Parkin
\nwith a knee in the opening round, earning a $100,000 performance
\nbonus for the finish, which also put him on Asplund\u2019s radar.<\/p>\n

Steven Asplund wants Johnny Walker in December after his UFC
\n332 knockout<\/h2>\n

Asplund (8-2), who is 2-1 in the UFC since earning a contract on
\n
\nDana White\u2019s Contender Series<\/a>, called out Walker by mimicking
\nGeorges St.
\nPierre<\/a>\u2019s iconic callout of Matt Hughes<\/a>
\nfrom 2006. He wants to fight Walker at UFC
\n335<\/a> in December in Las Vegas.<\/p>\n

\u201cJohnny Walker, I\u2019m not impressed by your performance,\u201d Asplund
\nsaid on his Instagram Stories. \u201cAnd come on, man, meet me in
\nDecember at T-Mobile, brother, you big bastard.\u201d<\/p>\n

St. Pierre entered the Octagon after Hughes stopped B.J. Penn<\/a> via
\nthird-round technical knockout to defend his welterweight belt at
\nUFC
\n63<\/a>. In one of the most memorable and awkward in-cage moments in
\nUFC history, St. Pierre uncharacteristically called out Hughes,
\nsaying that he wasn\u2019t impressed with the American\u2019s
\nperformance.<\/p>\n
