During the interview, he discussed a variety of subjects, one of which being the comeback of former UFC bantamweight champion Henry Cejudo. ‘The Messenger’ has lately stated his desire to return and challenge Volkanovski for the featherweight championship.

“I think he will do great. Volkanovski is not like a big dude, height-wise or reach-wise. I think he will do fine. Henry Cejudo is pretty thick right now, so I think it would be fine. “ Johnson commented on Just Scrap Radio. “The biggest thing, in my opinion, is if Henry wants to fight him like he’s still in the UFC, so just work your way up to him. But he just wants to have that one-off fight to fight him. If he does want to fight him, go and get two or three fights in the featherweight division, get in line as everybody else does, and earn your shot.”
What’s next for Demetrious Johnson?
ONE Championship has put up an extremely fascinating fight for what is being dubbed as the promotion’s biggest event ever. Former UFC flyweight champion Demetrious Johnson will face ONE flyweight Muay-Thai champion Rodtang Jitmuangnon in a mixed special rules bout at ONE X, the ONE Championship 10-year anniversary show, on December 5th in Singapore.
