Demetrious Johnson Set For UFC Hall Of Fame Induction

Demetrious Johnson will be inducted this July during International Fight Week in Las Vegas into the UFC Hall of Fame. 

Johnson’s career is a blueprint for success, beginning with his win at UFC 152, where he was crowned the organization’s first-ever flyweight champion. What followed was a six-year reign. Between 2012 and 2017, Johnson successfully defended his 125-lb title 11 consecutive times. His historic run in the UFC reached a controversial conclusion in 2018, when he lost his title via a split decision to Henry Cejudo.

Johnson then moved to ONE Championship in exchange for undefeated welterweight Ben Askren. Competing overseas, Johnson captured both the ONE Flyweight World Grand Prix championship and the ONE Flyweight World Title. Johnson officially hung up the gloves in September 2024, retiring as a world champion with a final professional record of 25-4-1.
