On the heels of his victory over Ian McCall at UFC 156, Joseph Benavidez could have easily made the case to get a rematch with flyweight champion Demetrius Johnson. But rather than step back into the Octagon with “Mighty Mouse” in quick fashion, the Team Alpha Male staple thought it best to take another route […]
