Charles "InnerG" Johnson is a former LFA flyweight champion from St. Louis and one of the busiest fighters on the entire UFC roster — this is already his fourth fight of 2026. A slick switch-stance striker, he owns a knockout of current flyweight champion Joshua Van and a finish of previously unbeaten prospect Lone'er Kavanagh. His problem has been consistency, alternating wins and losses in his last six as he splits results between fellow strikers and elite grapplers. At 35, he serves as the division's gatekeeper: beat Johnson and you are for real.
