With championship trilogy looming, Adriano Moraes offers to welcome Demetrious Johnson to ONE

A possible trade between UFC and ONE Championship, transferring two of their biggest talents Demetrious Johnson and Ben Askren, is not even official yet, but that didn’t stop former ONE flyweight king Adriano Moraes from calling for a fight with “Mighty Mouse”.

“Mikinho” lost his flyweight title in controversial fashion in July, when Geje Eustaquio claimed the undisputed gold with a split decision in China. The American Top Team talent, who mentioned his desire to fight Johnson years ago, sees it as a real possibility after a “shocking” trade.
