KANSAS CITY, Mo. – UFC flyweight champion Demetrious
Johnson tied the promotion’s record for consecutive title defenses without much resistance.
Johnson (26-2-1 MMA, 14-1-1 UFC) picked up his 10th straight title defense – tying ex-middleweight champ Anderson Silva – with another masterful performance, battering Wilson Reis (22-7 MMA, 6-3 UFC) en route to a third-round submission.
The flyweight title bout was the main event of today’s UFC on FOX 24 event at Sprint Center in Kansas City, Mo. It aired on FOX following prelims on FOX and UFC Fight Pass.
The fight was over at the 4:49 mark of the third round when Reis, the No. 5 fighter in the USA TODAY Sports/MMAjunkie MMA flyweight rankings, submitted to an armbar, a far more attractive option than the one Johnson presented by mounting him and pounding away with punches
