Overview
- Johnson defeated Eduardo Chapolin by Scottish twister at 1:36 of Round 3 at UFC 330 in Philadelphia on Aug. 15.
- Chapolin took the fight on roughly three days’ notice, which moved the bout to a 130‑pound catchweight and made it his UFC debut.
- The fight featured early chaos that included a referee deduction for an illegal knee by Chapolin and a stiff left that dropped Johnson in Round 2 before Johnson rallied.
- Johnson said he learned and routinely drills the twister from Patrick “Patchy” Mix and dedicated the win to the late Allan Nascimento.
- The finish is exceptionally rare—the second Scottish twister recorded in UFC competition—and the highlight may boost Johnson’s standing while drawing attention to advanced grappling finishes in the division.
