Never one to mince words, Valter Walker made another bombshell statement that shook the MMA world. In a recent interview with the YouTube channel 'Laerte Viana na Área', the fighter, always outspoken, revealed his disappointment with a renowned compatriot in the UFC.
It's true that Valter kept it a secret and, to avoid further controversy, didn't reveal the fellow professional who disappointed him, but he made it clear that everyone knows and admires him. According to the heavyweight (up to 120,2 kg) fighter, this athlete sells a public image that doesn't reflect his true personality, calling him fake. From there, fans began to speculate about who the fighter might be, but the Rio native preferred to keep his identity a secret.

“I’ve met fighters I see online and think, ‘That guy is cool.’ But then you meet them in person, and they’re a total jerk. They’re not foreigners, they’re Brazilian. There’s a guy I was a huge fan of, but when I got to Brazil, I talked to him, and he’s a total jerk. You all know who he is. He’s a total jerk. I see him and think, ‘This guy isn’t anything like what he is on social media.’ He acts tough on social media, but he’s a total jerk. You think he’s awesome, but when you see him in person, he’s a total jerk. He’s nothing like that,” said the fighter.
