Review by AllTheBestFights.com: 2017-07-07, back-and-forth action with some tremendous exchanges: Michael Johnson vs Justin Gaethje was an absolute war and it is a candidate for Mma Fight of the Year 2017, it gets five stars (UFC Fight of the Night and UFC Performance of the Night).Michael Johnson entered this fight with a professional mma record of 17-11-0 (59% finishing rate) and he is ranked as the No.14 lightweight in the world but he won just one out of his last four bouts, against Dustin Poirier last year (=Poirier vs Johnson).
