In addition to his acting commitments, Walton maintained his boxing career. In 2023, he signed with Jake Paul’s Most Valuable Promotions, making his professional boxing debut in December 2023. This dual career path has allowed Walton to develop both his athletic and artistic talents. His notable brand collaborations include partnerships with Under Armour, Brand Jordan, Essentia, Gap, and Venmo, reflecting his broad appeal across sports and lifestyle sectors.
