Ouch.

Walker, who couldn’t utilize his incredible heel hook skill set, decided to take Clark’s back early on and sink in a rear-naked choke to force the tap. It didn’t look like Walker was operating at 100% or trying to inflict serious damage, but it still wasn’t a great look for a streaking UFC fighter to manhandle a legless opponent.

After the fight, UFC light heavyweight veteran Johnny Walker took to social media to show his disgust for his bother’s performance. Walker even went as far as saying Valter disgraced the family name. Check it out below and let us know your final thoughts on all of this!

“I am ashamed! He is chocking a indefensible guy, 4 times lighter then him, and without leg, very disrespectful. Take someone of your size, you are shameful for the Walker legacy,” wrote Walker.

“@valterwalkerufc, this is why I did not come to this fight, it wasn’t a fight, it was a … I can’t even give it a name, can someone tell me what it was please.”
