"I always like to fight ahead of myself, plan ahead. I'm obviously focusing on TJ, but Mighty Mouse is next at 125 lbs. I can 125 on November 4 if I wanted to." “I could care less what Dominick (Cruz) does in the (Jimmie) Rivera fight. Neither of those guys are money fights for me anyway. First and foremost focus on TJ. This is a gimme fight too. This is a fight for me that I’m gonna end this dude, and I can pick my fights after that. I’m gonna fight Mighty Mouse down at 125 and that's just business. I like the guy a lot, but that’s just a business move for me."https://twitter.com/SportsJOEdotie/status/923305172167782400 We know what you're thinking, what if 'No Love' loses the belt? Fortunately, the man he's fighting next, TJ Dillashaw, is still interested in that superfight against DJ.
"It's one step at a time. I'm fighting Cody Garbrandt right now. That's always an option. That's always something. Mighty Mouse is the pound-for-pound king right now, so that’s who everyones gonna want to shoot for. He’s the one with the target on his back. I’m excited to fight the best in the world, so that’s always an option.”If either Garbrandt or Dillashaw was to fight Johnson next it would be the first time the flyweight champ has ever defended his belt against a current or former UFC champion.
