Valter Walker achieved what he wanted so much. In the current season, the Brazilian starred in a soap opera full of provocations with Zion Clark and made clear his interest in facing him. Now, the duel will become a reality. Last Sunday (28), Karate Combat announced that the grappling fight will take place on February 13 in Miami (USA).
The matchup is unusual and the opponent surprising, because the American was born without legs due to a rare condition called caudal regression syndrome. Even so, Clark, despite the limitation, remains unfazed. Valter, on the other hand, is known in the UFC for being a specialist in foot locks.

As the Brazilian created the rivalry and intensified it with his 'jokes', Karate Combat saw an opportunity to capitalize on it. So much so that the company classified the grappling match between the athletes as the most viral in history.
UFC release
Despite being an exclusive UFC fighter, Valter Walker will compete in Karate Combat. The company granted permission for the fight to take place because it will be a grappling match, which presents a low risk of injury to the athletes. In fact, many UFC professionals participate in such fights on the side to remain active, stay in the media, and, obviously, earn money.
