"Rambl" became the free agent, Dana White is ready to accept the disgraced fighter back.
Two years ago Anthony Johnson last time fought in the oktagon (on UFC 142), having brought to white heat the employer. Desperately trying to get into a narrow framework of average weight the fighter as a result showed mad for a division of 197 pounds (instead of 185) and was compelled to fight against Vitor Belfort in intermediate weight. The guy who began with performances in the light-middleweight weight (170 pounds), postloss to "Fenom" was driven out from UFC.
Since then much water has flowed under the bridges. Left importunate desire to deceive the nature, Johnson acts in semi-heavy and heavy divisions, . In two last duels "Rambl" destroyed Belarusian Andrey Arlovsky, having broken it a jaw, and in two minutes knocked out Mike Kyle.
On it Johnson's contract with WSOF expired, and Anthony became the free agent – possibly, the most attractive free agent in the today's market.
Even for Dana White who unless didn't damn it two years ago.
"We with Joe Silva spoke about him the other day", - reported Dana to the press during media day before UFC 169. "I say that I like this boy, and always it was pleasant".
Anthony Johnson could bring an intrigue in UFC light heavyweight where, apparently, the champion John Jones is in couple of steps from full cleaning of a division. "Ramblu" is only 29 years, he knocked out the 4th of the last 6 opponents and is in the blossoming of forces.
Now Anthony has a chance to return in oktagon, it absolutely precisely got "on a pencil" Dana, Lorenzo and a matchmeyker of UFC of Joe Silva.
