Johnson (17-6 MMA, 6-4 UFC) takes on streaking flyweight Ramazan Temirov (18-2-1 MMA, 1-0 UFC) in Saturday’s prelim opener (ESPN+) at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas. Considering that Johnson is a ranked UFC flyweight who’s on a four-fight winning streak, he was expecting to draw a bigger fight. “I don’t have anything against it, but I look at the opportunities other guys get when they come into the promotion from RIZIN, from Eternal, but what are these promotions compared to LFA, that has had hundreds of not only ranked guys, but a plethora of champions?” Johnson said in an interview with UFC.com .
