UFC flyweight champion Demetrious Johnson might not have the star power of Georges St-Pierre, but ‘Rush’ believes ‘Mighty Mouse’ has joined the ranks as one of the greatest fighters of all time.
Johnson, who broke Anderson Silva’s record for the most consecutive title defenses at UFC 216 (11), submitting Ray Borg with a spectacular flying armbar, is officially ranked as the No. 1 pound-for-pound fighter in the world, and GSP thinks it’s a position well-earned.
Speaking to the media at a recent press conference in Toronto, St-Pierre hailed Johnson as the best fighter of our era.
