Demetrious
\nJohnson<\/a> couldn\u2019t overcome a significant size disadvantage
\nduring a recent grappling session with Khamzat
\nChimaev<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The former
\nUFC<\/a> flyweight champion posted a video on Instagram of the two
\nfighters training together on the mats. \u201cMighty Mouse\u201d began the
\nencounter sounding confident.<\/p>\n

\u201cDid Arman [Tsarukyan] tell you I was good? Arman tell you I was
\nstrong?\u201d Johnson said.<\/p>\n

\u201cMaybe for him, yeah,\u201d Chimaev replied.<\/p>\n

It didn\u2019t take long for Chimaev, the reigning UFC middleweight
\nchampion, to lock in a brabo choke to force a tap from Johnson. The
\ntime of the submission was 47 seconds.<\/p>\n

Being Realistic<\/h2>\n

\u201cYou guys are like \u2018man, why did he pull guard?\u2019\u201d Johnson said. \u201cDo
\nyou think I\u2019m going to shoot a f\u2014-ing takedown on Khamzat
\nChimaev<\/a>?\u201d<\/p>\n

Johnson will be enshrined in the UFC Hall of Fame as part of
\nInternational Fight Week this July. In addition to a lengthy reign
\nas UFC flyweight king, \u201cMighty Mouse\u201d was also a 135-pound title
\nholder in ONE Championship. He retired from the sport in 2024.<\/p>\n

Chimaev is slated to make his first 185-pound title defense agianst
\nSean
\nStrickland<\/a> in the UFC 328<\/a>
\nheadliner on May 9 at the Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey.
\n\u201cBorz\u201d claimed the crown with a dominant five-round verdict against
\nDricus Du
