UFC on Fox 24 Highlight Video: Watch Demetrious Johnson Put Wilson Reis Away
Wilson Reis was hoping to come into his UFC on Fox 24 main event fight with the undisputed flyweight champion and take his belt.
There was a catch, though: the defending champion is Demetrious Johnson, one of the greatest fighters to ever lace up MMA gloves. Reis hung tough as long as he could and fought to the best of his abilities, but his best wasn’t even three full rounds. “Mighty Mouse” was dazzling, as usual, with his mesmerizing footwork, blazing handspeed and lethal kicks. Reis eventually was battered to pieces and losing badly before Johnson took him down late in the third. From there, the champ unloaded a cascade of punches and elbows from side control before moving to mount. Johnson continued to unload the strikes until he latched on the armbar and sealed Reis’ fate, getting the tap at 4:49 of the frame to retain his title for a record-tying 10th time (online betting).
