The ONE flyweight world champion conquered 'Mighty Mouse' via knockout in 2021 and was overcome with emotion. The Brazilian flyweight king recently looked back and rewatched his first fight against Johnson. After knocking 'Mighty Mouse' unconscious, the proud fighter said: "We just beat up the GOAT, the greatest of all time, the record holder of [world] title defenses and we had a good win against him ... I’ve beaten the GOAT. I saw a lot of people inside the corner was like truly happy with my success. After that, it was just celebrations. I called my mom, and I said ‘I told you mom, I told you. I’m one of the best in the world. We got it, we did it.’" ONE Championship@ONEChampionshipRespect above all in the Circle Demetrious Johnson challenges Adriano Moraes for the flyweight throne once more on August 26 at ONE 161! @adrianomkmoraes#ONE161 Aug 26#WeAreONE #ONEChampionship727Respect above all in the Circle Demetrious Johnson challenges Adriano Moraes for the flyweight throne once more on August 26 at ONE 161! @adrianomkmoraes#ONE161 Aug 26#WeAreONE #ONEChampionship https://t.co/J1xpW4gMUC Moraes made his debut in ONE Championship back in 2013.
