With a 4-0 record in the UFC and a 10-0 resume overall, Jordan Johnson appeared to be a prospect on the rise but following the conclusion of his first contract with the promotion he decided to sign elsewhere.
It’s a rarity in a sport largely dominated by the UFC that any up and coming fighter would opt to go to a different promotion but Johnson knew inking a multi-fight deal with upstart organization Professional Fighters League (PFL) was the best decision for him.
Now Johnson makes it clear that there was no bad blood leaving the UFC because the last thing he ever intended to do was burn bridges with his exit.
