ONE champion Adriano Moraes not impressed by Demetrious Johnson’s tournament win

Demetrious Johnson went 3-0 in seven months to win the ONE Championship flyweight (135-pound) grand prix, but division champion Adriano Moraes is not impressed.

“He dominated his last two fights, but didn’t impress me that much,” Moraes told MMA Fighting. “I believe that a fight with me with will be way better, and we’ll put on a show.”

“Mighty Mouse” made his debut under the ONE banner in March, submitting Yuya Wakamatsu with a guillotine choke after a tough first round. In the following bouts, the former UFC champion scored decision wins over Tatsumitsu Wada and Danny Kingad.
