Flyweight champion Demetrious Johnson earned a Performance of the Night award in his sixth title defense. Johnson dominated challenger Kyoji Horiguchi with relentless pressure. With literally one second remaining in the title fight, Johnson forced Horiguchi to tap out to an armbar after shutting the Japanese contender out on the judges’ scorecards through the first four rounds.
