The co-main event at UFC Fight Night: Gastelum vs Imavov will face American Jimmy Flick and American Charles Johnson in the welterweight category. The bout will take place on 15th January at UFC Apex. Who will be stronger?
An experienced jitzer, once known as the second McGregor, Jimmy Flick, who was never beaten by KO/TKO against the former LFA champion, is on a two-fight losing streak. Not for nothing have the bookies rated the fighter’s odds around 50/50, it’s really hard to pick a winner. I’ll throw in half a flop on Jimmy, if there is to be a win it will probably be by decision(maybe split decision) of the judges.
Jimmy ‘’The Brick’’ Flick is a 32-year-old fighter from Oklahoma, USA. He has a record of 16-5 (14 wins by submission and 2 by the judges’ decision). He has fought in such promotions as LFC, XFL, KOTC, LFA etc. In 2020, he made it to Dana White’s Contender Series, where he defeated Nate ‘’The Savage’’ Smith in the third round by submission, going on a 6-0 record (after a loss to Flick is on a four-fight losing streak). In his UFC debut, phenomenally defeats Cody Durden with a flying triangle in the 1st round. In April 2021 he publicly stated the end of his career, but something must have made him come back to fighting. ‘’The Brick’’ is ranked 28th lightweight in the world by tapology.
Charles ‘’InnerG’’ Johnson is a 31-year-old American fighter from Missouri. He has a 12-3 record, all the defeats were by the judges’ decision (which can’t be overlooked, Jimmy Flick has practically all the wins by submission). The former LFA champion made his UFC debut in 2022, losing to a young undefeated English prospect of Caucasian descent, Muhammad ‘’The Punisher’’ Mokaev, by unanimous decision of the judges. In his last fight, he lost by split decision to Zhalgas ‘’Zhako’’ Zhumagulov 29-28 (but the judges deemed him to have won by split decision), for which the latter was dismissed from the UFC. ‘’InnerG’’ is ranked 23rd lightest weight in the world by tapology.
