Whoa, Johnson at FW looks very different. Dropped a lot of muscle mass to make weight. #UFCLincoln pic.twitter.com/1ZjrpmgqQt

Fili with the heavy pressure, but Johnson is finding the counter left cross. Good first round.

Love watching these @ufc fights, but sitting here thinking to myself, “man, last year on this very day, I was in Vegas watching the #MayMac fight live. Enjoying a cocktail with @TheNotoriousMMA Pops at the @TMobile arena!” That was a trip!
