There is a growing sense of inevitability that seems to accompany each Demetrious Johnson title defense.
The flyweight king has become so dominant that his opponents often struggle to mount any kind of meaningful threat against him, and Saturday’s rematch against John Dodson was no exception. While Dodson put a scare into Johnson when they initially squared off at UFC on Fox 6, “The Magician” was unable to duplicate the feat at UFC 191.
As a result, some of the fans in attendance at the MGM Grand Garden Arena became restless as the bout grew increasingly lopsided, showering the headlining combatants with boos as the event drew to a close.
