'Mighty Mouse' captured the ONE flyweight world title in the most poetic way possible, as he put Moraes to sleep with a ridiculous flying knee in round four of their match inside the Singapore Indoor Stadium last week.

Demetrious Johnson won t be slowing down anytime soon

Following his decisive victory against Adriano Moraes, Demetrious Johnson has made history again by becoming the only fighter to win world titles in ONE Championship and the UFC. ‘Mighty Mouse’, who turned 36 last month, has now reached the age where most fighters start dealing with the lingering effects of Father Time. But Johnson seems fitter than ever and in better shape than most fighters who are younger than him. Aside from his well-rounded skills and world-class technique, Johnson heavily relies on his breakneck speed and godly reflexes. Some pundits even claimed that Johnson might have lost a step after his shocking loss to Moraes earlier. ‘Mighty Mouse’ certainly put those doubts to rest by turning back the clock in the rematch. With ONE gold now strapped around his waist, Johnson says that In the post-fight interview, he said:“I truly believe that I’m still getting better at 36. It’s because [of] the team I surround myself with…I still plan on getting better.” Poll : 0 votes Quick Links More from Sportskeeda Thank You!
