UFC In The 2010s: Looking Back At Flyweight Division

Demetrious Johnson

The undisputed flyweight king in mixed martial arts, Demetrious Johnson made the division.

“Mighty Mouse” won the title over Joseph Benavidez at UFC 152 in Toronto, Ontario, Canada on September 22, 2012. The bout served as the finals of a tournament.

Johnson would make his first title defense in 2013 over John Dodson, following that up with wins over John Moraga, Benavidez, Ali Bagautinov, Chris Cariaso, Kyoji Horiguchi, Dodson, Cejudo, Tim Elliott, Wilson Reis and Ray Borg.

After the loss to Cejudo, Johnson was traded to ONE Championship for Ben Askren. He is currently on his way to competing for the title in that promotion after winning a grand prix in ONE last year.
