Previous UFC champ and ONE Championship titleholder Demetrious Johnson revealed out at the Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Pan American Championship, winning gold in his selected department of the 154.6 pound Masters department and medaling in an openweight contest.
The latter needed Johnson, who is 5-3 and weighed roughly 155 pounds for the competitors, handle giants such as the 6-3, 248-pound opponent he grappled in the quarterfinals.
For the larger guy, Michael Sante Medina, size wasn't enough to conquer the craftiness of Johnson, who won the match in the subsiding seconds of the grappling match at Osceola Heritage Park in Kissimmee, Fla.
” He's a monster, guy, “Medina stated later.”Keeping that man still is the hardest thing I've ever done. He's rough.”
Johnson ultimately fell brief in the finals of the openweight competition, sending to a triangle choke from Brendan Paul Gagnon, who supposedly weighed 215 pounds.
Still, excusable for a flyweight.
