Demetrious Johnson In this week’s Trading Shots, MMAjunkie columnist Ben Fowlkes and retired UFC/WEC fighter Danny Downes discuss UFC flyweight champ Demetrious Johnson , the media’s role in balancing education and entertainment, and the ways in which being a fight fan is nothing like being a football fan. Fowlkes: Well, Danny, I know a Demetrious Johnson title fight must be near, because already the wind is whispering questions (and very few answers) about why fans don’t care for the guy who so many people regard as one of the best fighters in the sport. He says it’s only “uneducated fools” who don’t like watching him work, which made me think of this recent conversation between two “Fight Network” analysts up in Canada.
