It wasn’t a great night for former UFC fighters at ONE on TNT, as Demetrious Johnson suffered the first stoppage loss of his career and Eddie Alvarez was disqualified in under a minute.
Adriano Moraes defended his ONE flyweight title by stopping Johnson in the second round. Moraes started the fight well using his size and reach advantage to land strikes at distance. ‘Mikinho’ landed a takedown after catching one of Johnson’s kicks, but ‘DJ’ did a good job of reversing the position to end up on top.
In the second round, Moraes continued to strike at range.
