From No. 1 to No. 5, Demetrious has beaten them all, and if I have a chance, I\u2019m not going to take it for granted.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Formiga is currently ranked fourth in the flyweight division and is the only top-five fighter not to lose to &#8220;Mighty Mouse&#8221; Demetrious Johnson. The flyweight division is in a bit of a log-jam with Dodson and Benavidez having already beat Formiga, but the argument could be made for all three men.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMy main goal was to have a great fight against Wilson. He\u2019s a tough guy&#8230; He wasn\u2019t very well-ranked, but he\u2019s coming from two wins in the UFC. He\u2019s got a great name in the division, and I was able to have a great fight against him.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Do you think Formiga has what it takes to dethrone &#8220;Mighty Mouse&#8221;?<\/p>\n<p><strong>WATCH Nick Diaz Train On The Beach &#8212; EXCLUSIVE! <\/strong><\/p>\n<div id=\"container1\" class=\"outer-container\">\n<p><!-- Start of Brightcove Player --><\/p>\n<div style=\"display:none\">\n<\/div>\n<p><!--\nBy use of this code snippet, I agree to the Brightcove Publisher T and C \nfound at https:\/\/accounts.brightcove.com\/en\/terms-and-conditions\/. \n--><\/p>\n<p><script language=\"JavaScript\" type=\"text\/javascript\" src=\"http:\/\/admin.brightcove.com\/js\/BrightcoveExperiences.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p><object id=\"myExperience4236894392001\" class=\"BrightcoveExperience\"><param name=\"bgcolor\" value=\"#FFFFFF\" \/><param name=\"width\" value=\"560\" \/><param name=\"height\" value=\"315\" \/><param name=\"playerID\" value=\"4174782329001\" \/><param name=\"playerKey\" value=\"AQ~~,AAADV3-cjCE~,liy9q4yw9hqmtNPERf0MOvxn6JKOOxF3\" \/><param name=\"isVid\" value=\"true\" \/><param name=\"isUI\" value=\"true\" \/><param name=\"dynamicStreaming\" value=\"true\" \/><param name=\"@videoPlayer\" value=\"4236894392001\" \/><\/object><\/p>\n<p><!-- \nThis script tag will cause the Brightcove Players defined above it to be created as soon\nas the line is read by the browser.
