Demetrious Johnson continued to put his stamp on the UFC flyweight division with a dominant victory over John Moraga at UFC on Fox 8 on Saturday night in Seattle. Johnson controlled the fight, nearly from bell to bell, save for a couple explosions from Moraga, and finished with an armbar late in the fifth and final round. It was only Johnson’s second title defense, but talk already has shifted to whether or not he should step outside his division and take on a superfight, which seems to be all the rage lately. Johnson, and company president Dana White, certainly had a lot to say about Johnson’s performance on Saturday night and the prospects of fighting up against bantamweight champions following his victory on Saturday night.
