Charles 'InnerG' Johnson is a former LFA flyweight champion from St. Louis and one of the busiest fighters on the UFC roster. A slick switch-stance striker, he owns a knockout of current flyweight champion Joshua Van and pulled off a rare Scottish Twister submission at UFC 330 in August 2026. At 35, he serves as the division's gatekeeper, and now gets his biggest name yet in two-time former champion Brandon Moreno.
