At UFC 197 back in April 2016, Demetrious Johnson battled Olympic wrestler Henry Cejudo to defend his flyweight belt in the co-main event of the card. It was a short bout that lasted a little less than three minutes, as Johnson stopped Cejudo with a knee to the body followed by a series of punches. The victory marked Johnson’s eighth consecutive title defense.
Now, a year and one title defense later, Johnson is scheduled to face Wilson Reis in the main event of UFC on FOX 24, which takes place this Saturday at the Sprint Center in Kansas City, Mo.
