Johnson vs. Dillashaw: Why the Superfight Never Happened

Former champions Demetrious Johnson and T.J. Dillashaw have discussed why their highly anticipated superfight never materialized in the UFC octagon.

According to Johnson, the promotion refused to pay the $1 million he demanded for the matchup between the flyweight and bantamweight champions.

Conversely, Dillashaw recalls a plan to fight Johnson after losing his title and coaching on "The Ultimate Fighter," though the fight was ultimately canceled due to an injury.
