Ben Askren and Demetrious Johnson Traded in UFC-ONE Deal: Why This Happened | SiriusXM| Luke Thomas


ESPN reported Wednesday that Ben Askren would be ‘traded’ from ONE Championship to the UFC for Demetrious Johnson. The former Bellator and ONE welterweight king will likely be headed to the UFC while the former UFC flyweight and pound-for-pound great Demetrious Johnson will take his talents to Asia. Why is this deal happening? Here’s my theory.



The Luke Thomas Show airs weekdays, 3 to 6pm ET, on SiriusXM RUSH, channel 93.

  1. If you close your eyes, this guy sounds like Brian Griffin

  2. Anyone else catch themselves nodding when Luke starts nodding yes and no?🤪

  3. I am not a casual but I honestly don't care…I honestly never cared for FW division

  4. Clearly Ben Askren will fight in the UFC as a MIDDLEWEIGHT, either right away or after a tune-up fight. Cant snatch tyron's belt so he goes for Rob's

  5. This is the entertainment business, it’s not a sport. That’s what ya’ll gotta realise

  6. Timeline: dj turns down fight with tj, eventually fights bum ass cejudo again after cejudo won 1 fight after ,gets ROBBED for the belt, doesn't get immediate rematch AND gets shipped off to ONE….WHAT THE FOOK!!!!??!?!?!?
