UFC superstar Demetrious Johnson says he’s dead serious about a fight with Conor McGregor — explaining that stepping up to The Notorious is his best chance of making a 7-figure payday.
Johnson just beat up Wilson Reis for his 10th title defense in a row — but despite his UFC dominance, Demetrious still hasn’t gotten that fat million dollar check.
Long story short, Mighty Mouse knows the road to riches is through Conor … despite the significant weight difference.
Demetrious just fought at 125lbs. Conor’s last fight was at 155.
DJ says he can’t get all the way up to 155 — but says he’s confident the two sides could work something out … and says it would be a much easier fight to make than Floyd Mayweather.
Fingers crossed!!!
