Bibiano Fernandes: Demetrious Johnson is ready for Wilson Reis' jiu-jitsu

Demetrious Johnson is looking to make history in Kansas City, tying Anderson Silva's record for most title defenses in UFC history, and one training partner guarantees he’s ready for Wilson Reis’ best weapon Saturday night.

A decorate grappler, Reis earned a shot at the UFC flyweight champion after winning three straight. Reis takes on Johnson in the main event of UFC on FOX 24, and predicted a dominating submission victory.

“Mighty Mouse” was never finished in 10 years as professional MMA fighter, and his training partner Bibiano Fernandes, a multiple-time jiu-jitsu champion and current bantamweight kingpin at ONE Championship, says Johnson is ready for anything Reis brings on the ground.
