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

Demetrious Johnson expressed skepticism about Movsar Evloev's place in the UFC during a recent podcast. Evloev, who holds an undefeated 20-0 record, is set to challenge Alexander Volkanovski for the featherweight title at UFC 333 on October 24 in Abu Dhabi. Johnson criticized Evloev for not finishing any of his fights in the UFC, despite having seven career finishes prior to joining the organization. Evloev's last stoppage victory was in 2018, prompting Johnson to wonder how he remains on the roster when others, like Michael Page, have been released for similar reasons. Johnson's comments were made during an appearance with Volkanovski on the 'Precision' podcast.
