UFC Shanghai went down yesterday (Sat., Aug. 23, 2025) inside Mercedes-Benz Arena in Shanghai, China, which saw Johnny Walker secure an impressive technical knockout (TKO) win over Mingyang Zhang (see it again here).

With the victory, Walker snaps a three-fight winless streak (two losses and one no contest). The victory was his first since he beat Anthony Smith by unanimous decision in May 2023. In defeat, Zhang loses for the first time in the UFC after promotional victories over Brendson Ribeiro, Ozzy Diaz, and Anthony Smith.

Tonight's UFC Fight Night looks to inject some ferocious Chinese talent into the light heavyweight division. Prolific finisher Mingyang Zhang has ended all 19 of his wins inside the first round, and standing in the way of a top spot in the 205 division is perennial contender Johnny Walker.
