DJ: P4P #1 doesn’t mean I wipe my @$$ any different
Demetrious Johnson: “Do you think my breakfast tasted any different? Do you think me wiping my ass that day changed any different? It did not.”
Here is the UFC’s pound for pound top 10:
1 Jon Jones
2 Demetrious Johnson
3 Conor McGregor
4 Stipe Miocic
5 Max Holloway
6 Cody Garbrandt
7 Daniel Cormier
8 Joanna Jedrzejczyk
9 Tyron Woodley
10 Dominick Cruz
When Jones was on suspension, he was removed from the top 10, and Demetrious Johnson was #1. When the suspension ended, Jones again appeared at #1. Now Jones is provisionally suspended, and will likely be removed again, and Johnson restored to the best fighter in mixed martial arts.
During a recent interview with Fernanda Prates for MMAjunkie as Ken Hathaway filmed, Mighty Mouse said he didn’t give a s***.
There was one time when Jon Jones was inactive for, I think it was a long time, and I was the No. 1 pound-for-pound fighter in the world, said Johnson. And then he got reinstated as active, and he was just like that.
Do you think my breakfast tasted any different? Do you think me wiping my ass that day changed any different? It did not.
This whole downfall of what’s going on with him – which, I don’t wish it upon anybody. Do you think I’m excited that I’m back at No. 1? That I’m clicking my heels together? Absolutely not. The fans are going to perceive and change their mind on certain different things and try to discredit you whenever they get the chance.
So, for me, I don’t even worry about that anymore. I just worry about staying healthy, going out and fighting, and that’s it.
Johnson defends his title against Ray Borg at UFC 215 on September 9, 2017, at Rogers Place in Edmonton, Alberta.
