• Event in Nzechukwu's home country; no significant travel or acclimation issues for either fighter. No major external distractions reported.
• Nzechukwu is looking to climb into the heavyweight rankings, while Walker is aiming to prove himself at the highest level. Both highly motivated, but Nzechukwu has more to defend in terms of legacy.
