ONE Championship 92 Results: Demetrious Johnson Wins, Eddie Alvarez Stopped (Video)

New champions were crowned at ONE Championship 92 and two former Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) title holders made their promotional debuts.

ONE Championship: A New Era took place earlier today (March 31) in Tokyo, Japan. In the main event, Shinya Aoki submitted Eduard Folayang to recapture the ONE Championship lightweight title. Xiong Jing Nan finished Angela Lee to retain her strawweight gold. Aung La Nsang retained his middleweight title via TKO against Ken Hasegawa. Kevin Bellington was disqualified for illegal elbows against Bibiano Fernandes and now Fernandes is once again the ONE Championship bantamweight title holder.

Demetrious Johnson Successful, Eddie Alvarez Stunned

Fight fans eagerly awaited the promotional debuts of Demetrious Johnson and Eddie Alvarez. Johnson ended up submitting Yuya Wakamatsu, but it wasn’t easy. Wakamatsu had “Mighty Mouse” wobbled in the second stanza, but the former pound-for-pound king rebounded quickly to deliver devastating and legal knees to the head on the ground. He locked in a guillotine choke to force the tap.

Things didn’t pan out for Alvarez. “The Underground” king was stopped by Timofey Nastyukhin in the first round via TKO.
