‘Darth Rigatoni’ Mikey Musumeci is at the top of the list of potential opponents for Johnson. The 27-year-old flyweight champ has called out the Washington native inside the ring numerous times before as a way to bridge submission grappling into the combat sports world.

Demetrious Johnson, for his part, is open to a grappling match with Musumeci. There’s always a possibility of the two being paired up in the future, but it's up to ONE Championship to decide when that moment will be.
