Artem Lobov was left without an opponent after Zubaira Tukhugov was pulled from his fight against Artem following the incidents of the UFC 229 brawl.
It was at this time that Michael Johnson agreed to step in and fill in for Tukhugov in the co-headliner of the fight.

The gesture was a noble one, accepting a fight with only weeks to prepare for the event. He had to make sure that his weight matched the stipulation for the Featherweight bout. Unfortunately for him, he was unable to match the weight requirements for the weight on the day of the weigh-ins, coming in one pound heavier.
Not only did Artem decide to still fight him, but he also made sure that Johnson would not lose any money for failing to make weight. He volunteered to return the 20% of Johnson's purse that the fighter was bound to pay Lobov for not making weight, to make sure that the fighter did not lose money on this fight.
If that's not respect, I don't know what is.
