in January, he now seems firmly on action gatekeeper duty, which is where he finds himself in this assignment. Johns is a prospect who still has some potential but has yet to put together a game that matches the sum of its parts. “Chapo” came into the UFC most effective as a wrestler, and he has done well to develop as a striker, even if those gains have come with him abandoning the wrestling that brought him to the dance.
As a result, Johns’ recent fights have followed a relatively clear through line. Everything clicks if Johns is given time and space to work, but opponents who have applied consistent pressure—most notablyin early 2022—have been able to take Johns out of his comfort zone and find some openings as a result. Barcelos is in very much the latter camp, making this the Brazilian’s fight to lose, barring either age finally taking its toll or Johns suddenly finding a new level.
