UFC 191: Demetrious Johnson, John Dodson Look Ahead; Heavyweights Reflect On Past

Thursday’s UFC 191 media conference call had a very “Old School vs. New School” feel to it, as the four competitors that make up next weekend’s main and co-main event fights pressed pause on their final preparations to discuss their upcoming bouts.
