Demetrious Johnson wants to conclude the UFC’s flyweight tournament more than anyone, but a pending surgery will put the finalist on the sidelines until the fall.
Johnson, who topped Ian McCall in a rematch this past weekend in the UFC on FX 3 headliner, now is slated to fight fellow finalist Joseph Benavidez for the inaugural UFC flyweight title.
But first up for “Mighty Mouse” is hernia surgery later this week.
