Demetrious Johnson stood up for Islam Makhachev

Demetrious Johnson has come to the defense of Islam Makhachev. The former UFC champion does not understand the complaints of fans who criticize the Dagestan.

Despite his break from the cage and retirement rest, Demetrious Johnson still follows all major MMA events and galas with great interest. As a former UFC and ONE champion, the popular Mighty Mouse has a wealth of knowledge and experience from his many years of competing.

Demetrious Johnson runs his own channel on the youtube platform, where he analyzes and announces all the combinations, as well as reacts to the results of the fights. The DJ wants to promote his beloved sport in this way. In one of his latest materials, Johnson referred to the UFC 322 gala.

Demetrious Johnson is strongly surprised by the attitude of fans who, after the gala in New York, criticized the attitude of Islam Makhachev and claimed that the fight of the evening was boring. Johnson absolutely disagrees with such an opinion.

– How is it that we’ve reached a point in MMA where fans don’t appreciate a win like this. This is mixed martial arts. Many say this fight was awful. It wasn’t like that, it was just that one guy was dominated. Islam totally dominated JDM, and fans say the clash sucked. I can understand that you expected more, but here simply one guy was definitely better than the other.

Mighty Mouse stressed that Islam Makhachev presented a far superior level in the octagon and confidently outpointed his opponent. Johnson noted that he understands that fans could have expected more, probably having in mind a finish before time or a more even fight with an exchange of punches in the stand-up.
