UFC flyweight champion Demetrious Johnson has a very well documented history with not pulling in as many viewers as other dominant champions manage to.<\/p>\n

It sees like DJ’s attitude lately has just been ‘who cares.’<\/p>\n

And it seems like UFC president Dana White is happy with his numbers, so yeah, who cares. White spoke on UFC Tonight and claimed that the champ actually brought in more PPV buys than they were expecting him to at UFC 191.

I’m sure this isn’t the last time we’ll talk about Johnson and numbers though, oh well.<\/p>\n

Thoughts?<\/p>\n
