MMAFA’s Johnson willing to risk UFC career: ‘You gotta stand up for what’s right’

In an interview with BloodyElbow.com’s The MMA Circus, UFC lightweight Kajan Johnson delves into the recently launched PFA, being a member of the MMAFA, why he’s willing to risk his job by standing up for fighter rights, and much more.

Kajan Johnson isn’t afraid to speak out for what’s right.

The fighter is part of the Mixed Martial Arts Fighters Association (MMAFA), a group of active and retired fighters with a goal of gaining rights for the sport’s athletes. This includes increasing fighter pay, among many other things.

The potential formation of a union or association is a hot topic among the mixed martial arts community right now, thanks to the recent launch of the Professional Fighters Assocation (PFA).
