The uncertain future of Demetrious Johnson's career.
TL;DR
Demetrious Johnson, former UFC flyweight king, admits that his upcoming trilogy against Adriano Moraes in the first-ever U.S. ONE Championship event could be his last fight. Johnson, who is 36, said that it's not a matter of his health or feeling like he can't hang with the best fighters in the world anymore, but rather about knowing that the time is right to call it a career. He wants to compete in Brazilian jiu-jitsu in IBJJF, and he likes the idea of relying on something other than MMA to earn a living.
