UFC flyweight champion Demetrious Johnson and challenger Henry Cejudo get the “Inside the Octagon” treatment now ahead of Saturday’s UFC 197 bout.
John Gooden and former UFC title challenger Dan Hardy offer up insight and preview the co-main event fight in the video below:

After 15 months on the sidelines due to his legal troubles, former light heavyweight champion Jon Jones finally returns to action on Saturday night at UFC 197.
In his absence, Daniel Cormier won the vacated 205-pound title against Anthony Johnson and defended it against Alexander Gustafsson. Despite Jones’ competitive but clear victory over Cormier last January, the former Olympian now holds the belt that Jones defended eight times. UFC 197 was to be Jones’ chance to reclaim what he never actually lost.
An injury to Cormier shelved that plan, and into the breach steps Ovince Saint Preux. The Strikeforce veteran and nine-time UFC contestant has hung around the division’s top 10 for a while now, and this is his chance to break through in a big way against the dominant champion.
The rest of the pay-per-view portion of the card is exceptional. In the co-main event, longtime flyweight champion Demetrious Johnson takes on Olympic gold medalist Henry Cejudo in an intriguing title fight. Cejudo is the last real challenger to Johnson’s throne; the champion has defended his title seven times, and there is little left for him to do at 125 pounds if he can dispose of Cejudo.
Former lightweight champion Anthony Pettis meets explosive striker Edson Barboza in the main card’s third fight. This is a dream matchup of two of the division’s best strikers, and a shot for Pettis to get back on track following losses to Rafael Dos Anjos and Eddie Alvarez.
The spotlight shines on talented prospects in the first two bouts on the main card. The Ultimate Fighter: Latin America winner Yair Rodriguez takes on Andre Fili in the opener, while Australia’s talented Robert Whittaker gets a soft step up against the tough and skilled Rafael Natal.
The undercard is less promising. Inaugural strawweight champion Carla Esparza makes her return against Juliana Lima, while Pettis’ younger brother Sergio headlines the Fox Sports 1 broadcast against Chris Kelades.
An excellent lightweight fight between The Ultimate Fighter Brazil 3 winner Glaico Franca and James Vick opens the Fox Sports 1 portion of the card, while a light heavyweight banger featuring Clint Hester and Marcos Rogerio de Lima will grace the Fight Pass prelims.
Let’s take a look at each individual fight.

The UFC has released its usual free fights on YouTube leading up to UFC 197 this weekend. This time its Demetrious Johnson vs. Joseph Benavdiez 2. DJ, of course, is fighting this Saturday at UFC 197 when he defends his belt against Henry Cejudo.
“Mighty Mouse” fought Joseph Benavidez in a rematch at UFC on Fox 9 in 2013. Johnson won the bout impressively in a 1st round kockout over the Team Alpha Male fighter. The KO over Benavidez is still his only knockout victory inside the octagon. Demetrious Johnson had a beautiful right hook to the chin that was set up with a fake jab. Watch the fight below:

The co-main event at UFC 197 on Saturday isn’t getting much press, but it features arguably the pound-for-pound best fighter on the planet, Demetrious Johnson (23-2-1).
Johnson defends his UFC Flyweight Championship against rising star and Olympic gold medalist, Henry Cejudo (10-0).
The flyweight division has only known Mighty Mouse as its leader since its inception under the UFC banner in 2012. He does everything to near perfection. He is the example of what MMA can be at its highest level. And yet, he gets virtually no respect.
This is another opportunity for the flyweights to gain that respect. UFC 197 puts them on a platform underneath the return of Jon Jones. Who will walk out of the Octagon wearing 12 pounds of gold?
Here is your head-to-toe breakdown for Johnson vs. Cejudo.
