The story
Johnny Walker, who is set to headline UFC Vegas 124 this Saturday against Waldo Cortes-Acosta, confirmed he has no intention of competing against his half-brother, Valter Walker. Johnny dismissed the potential matchup, stating he is not willing to physically harm a family member despite the sport's high-stakes and often violent nature.
While the two have trained together in the past, Johnny noted that their personal relationship has faced challenges due to what he described as Valter's disrespectful online behavior. Although Johnny is open to having Valter join his training camps in Las Vegas, he specified that his brother would not be welcome to stay at his home during that time.
