Demetrious Johnson questions Movsar Evloev's UFC presence ahead of title shot

Demetrious Johnson publicly criticized Movsar Evloev's fighting style ahead of Evloev's title shot against Alexander Volkanovski at UFC 333 on October 24. Evloev, currently undefeated at 20-0 with 10 wins in the UFC, has not finished a fight since joining the promotion, all 10 victories coming by decision. Johnson wondered how Evloev remains in the UFC given recent cuts of fighters with similar styles, referencing Michael Page's dismissal. Volkanovski acknowledged that Evloev's lack of finishes may have delayed his shot at the title but expressed sympathy for Evloev regarding fan criticism.
