Him and Shogan (and Rampage, if he was in the UFC) might be a good case for a Cruiserweight division. I think it could prolong some of these fighters careers.

Walker looks to struggle to hit 205. He has a large frame and is 6’5”. How can you lump him in with rampage and shogun who are both shorter and stockier? He doesn’t seem to fit in your scenario.
 
I agree, JW should move up to HW.

He is tall and has long reach. He likely cuts a lot of weight to get to LHW, and it probably affects his already crappy chin.

If he went to HW, he would have a height, reach, and speed advantage over most HW's. And I'm sure he can KO a lot of HW's as well, since he is such an explosive fighter. HW's are also generally less skilled compared to LHW's.

The fact is that JW can get KO'd by almost anyone at LHW and HW. But he has more advantages against the less technical HW's imo. Slow HW's may have a harder time tagging him.
 
I like Walker more than most, but this would be a horrible idea. He would a win a handful of fights of course, but once he got hit with a big shot from a big HW, he’s going to crumble and it would only go downhill from there for him in the division.
 
At LHW he can at least eat pizza after the fight.
 
Isn't there a rule on here about advocating for murder? Mods?
 
He will make a great KO highlight reel for Black Beast, Tai, Stipe, Roz and Francis. Heck even Volk, Blaydes and Gane will have him as a TKO highlight reel

He needs more practice on his inverted worm dance that he performed during last nite's match
 
If he eats more horse meat then sure, why not. If it’s just a matter of not cutting weight, then no. If he had Ubereems size maybe he’d be relevant, but other than that him moving to HW is a really, really bad idea.

I am just saying that they all would benefit from not needing to cut as much weight. A cruiserweight division would allow them to fight around their natural weight. Shorter, stockier fighters have always fought taller and lankier fighters.
 
He should be fighting in karate kyokushinkai where there are no punches to the head.
He seems to have all the tools to be successful in that discipline.
 
That Porker Parker fat guy would give him a scary KO probably. He needs to learn how to defend himself, regardless of the weight he competes at.
 
Agree. He looks totally emaciated at 205. His cardio and chin might be better if he moves up. His chin might be cracked though, in which case he could die at HW...

also: defense?

The guy has all of the key ingredients needed to be a decent heavyweight, which includes:

6’5 height
Barely a functional MMA game
Wins on pure athleticism and power
Not a round winner
Gets tired easily

Not to mention he wouldn’t have an insane weight cut, so maybe his chin would get better as well.

He looks drained @205 for real. But those heavies hit SO hard, I don't know if he could pull of that wildin, spinning kick, flying knee bullshit that got him here.. he could easily carry 230+ .
It would be interesting
