"I believe that Alex Volkanovski won that fight [against Diego Lopez] with a big advantage. Are we doing this for popularity or to determine who is better? This is where I begin to doubt the legitimacy of what we call this sport. That's why I always say that it's not quite a sport. It's selection and curation. I'll promote this athlete because he has a market," said Johnson in a video on his Mighty YouTube channel.
Let us recall that the Volkanovski vs. Lopez 2 fight will be the main event of UFC 325, which will take place on February 1 in Sydney, Australia. In the first bout, held in April this year, the current titleholder won by points.
