Kajan Johnson PASAY, Philippines – Kajan Johnson ’s relentless offense might not have been enough to put Lipeng Zhang away, but it was enough to keep him from mounting much of an attack of his own. In the end, that was enough to convince the judges to hand Johnson (20-11-1 MMA, 1-1 UFC) the unanimous decision victory (30-27, 29-28, 29-28) over a game Zhang (9-9-1 MMA, 2-2 UFC). The lightweight bout was part of the preliminary card of today’s UFC Fight Night 66 event at SM Mall of Asia Arena in Pasay, Philippines. It aired on FOX Sports 1 following additional prelims on UFC Fight Pass and ahead of a main card on FOX Sports 1. Johnson put Zhang on the defensive early with a suffocating grappling game that transitioned smoothly from takedowns to leglock attempts. Even when Zhang managed to explode out of bad positions and gain top position, he found himself too busy fighting off submission attempts from Johnson to put his own offense to work
