The Ultimate Fighting Championship tapped light heavyweight knockout artists for its UFC Fight Night 201 main event, as Johnny Walker charges into battle against Jamahal Hill on Saturday at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas. They carry 20 knockouts in 29 victories between them.

Walker enters the cage in a bit of a tailspin, having lost three times in his past four outings. He last appeared at UFC 193, where he dropped a five-round unanimous decision to Thiago Santos in their Oct. 2 headliner. Hill, meanwhile, has won two of his last three bouts. He has not fought since Dec. 4, when he punched out Jimmy Crute a mere 48 seconds into their clash at UFC on ESPN 31.

As Walker and Hill move toward their high-stakes showdown at 205 pounds, a look at some of the numbers that have accompanied them to this point:

29: Years of age for Walker, who was born on March 30, 1992 in Belford Roxo, Brazil.

15: Walker victories by knockout or technical knockout, accounting for 83% of his career total (18). His list of UFC victims: Ryan Spann, Misha Cirkunov, Justin Ledet and Khalil Rountree. Walker owns two other victories by submission and one more by decision.

6: Sub-minute stoppage wins on the Walker resume, two of which have taken place inside the Octagon. He brought down Ledet with a spinning backfist and follow-up punches 15 seconds into their UFC Fight Night 144 encounter on Feb. 2, 2019 and struck down Cirkunov with a flying knee and follow-up punches 38 seconds into their UFC 235 pairing on March 2, 2019.

16: Rounds completed by Walker as a professional mixed martial artist. He has gone the distance on three occasions and sports a 1-2 record in those bouts, his victory over Henrique da Silva offset by losses to Santos and Nikita Krylov.

.737: Cumulative winning percentage between the six men—Santos, Krylov, Corey Anderson, Henrique Silva Lopes, Klidson Abreu and Wagner Prado—who have defeated Walker. They boast a combined record of 101-35-1.

30: Years of age for Hill, who was born in Chicago on May 19, 1991.

5: Hill wins by knockout or technical knockout, accounting for 56% of his career total (nine). His complete list of victims: Crute, Ovince St. Preux, Alexander Poppeck, William Vincent and Mike Johnson. Hill holds four other wins by decision, all of the unanimous variety.

6.65: Strikes landed by Hill per minute of UFC competition, placing him second on the promotion’s all-time list for light heavyweights. Only Dustin Jacoby (6.96) connects at a higher rate.

1: Loss on the Hill ledger. He succumbed to volley of elbows and punches from former British Association of Mixed Martial Arts champion Paul Craig in the first round of their UFC 263 confrontation on June 12, 2021.

4: Organizations in which Hill has plied his mixed martial arts trade. He has gone 4-0 in KnockOut Promotions, 3-1 with one no contest in the UFC, 1-0 in Dana White’s Contender Series and 1-0 in Lights Out Championship.
