Will Brooks blasts ‘arrogant’ Michael Johnson for ‘disrespectful’ act against Dustin Poirier

Will Brooks wasn't a big Michael Johnson fan to begin with, he said. And then what he saw what he did after a fight with Dustin Poirier, that cemented it.

Brooks told Ariel Helwani on Monday's edition of The MMA Hour that he feels like Johnson's post-fight celebration against Brooks' teammate Poirier at UFC Fight Night 94 was "disrespectful." He's very interested in a fight with Johnson next after his bout with Alex Oliveira at UFC Fight Night: Lineker vs. Dodson on Saturday night in Portland.

"He's on my radar," Brooks said.
