So, He Is The Greatest of All Time, or...? Don't Forget Demetrious Johnson in ONE

Demetrious Johnson cleared out the UFC flyweight division, nearly causing it to be terminated for good. However, even his record-breaking eleven title defenses were not enough for the legend of Mighty Mouse. And after finding a new home in Asia, he continues to make history. It's time to recall DJ’s thrilling run in ONE Championship.

[@invertedaura1986]

I can tell you with absolute certainty, NO ONE has forgotten Mighty mouse. He is literally in every fan's GOAT list.

[@MrDarkweaver]

Well, every fan who knows what they are talking about. He has such a diverse array of skills.

[@huntergla81]

I think it’s just these fans that have taken over that really don’t talk about him, the attention seeking weirdos. One reason being most of them only watch big ppvs and wanna see the next big thing. DJ was relegated to ESPN shows and has basically been erased as of late. There’s never any mention of him in UFC coverage, him or Randy Couture. Could you imagine if the commissioner of baseball had a personal problem with one of the greatest major leaguers of all time and then forbid any mention of their name. Dana is a major goof for that.

[@bgizzle7545]

Every real fan anyway.

[@ItIsYouAreNotYour]

Forgot he even fights. I don't put 125lbers who don't challenge themselves and pub stomp the weakest division of all time in the GOAT list. Great fighter, who is overhyped because he beat some less skilled midgets. One of the weakest resumes out there as a "GOAT"

[@tRodHC]

Demetrious "Mighty Mouse" Johnson isn't just a fighter; he's a phenomenon. With an unparalleled blend of skill, intellect, and spirit, he's a compelling choice for the greatest of all time. Why, you ask? Let's break it down. First, consider his epic run in the UFC: a record-setting eleven consecutive title defenses in the flyweight division. This wasn't just about keeping the belt; it was about Mighty Mouse making the extraordinary look ordinary. He outmaneuvered, outsmarted, and outclassed the best of the best with a style that was as beautiful as it was deadly. Johnson’s reign in the UFC was less about dominance and more about artistry in motion. But Johnson didn't stop there. His adventures in ONE Championship, especially the jaw-dropping mixed rules bout against Muay Thai titan Rodtang and the thrilling trilogy with Adriano Moraes, showcased his fearless pursuit of challenges and his ability to adapt and overcome. These battles weren't just wins; they were statements of his greatness. Johnson's mastery extends beyond physical technique. His fight IQ is off the charts, seamlessly blending striking, grappling, and an innate ability to read his opponents. And yet, it's his character that truly sets him apart. A champion inside and out, Johnson has been a vocal advocate for fighters' rights, embodying the true spirit of martial arts with humility and respect. In a nutshell, Demetrious Johnson is the complete package. His incredible UFC title run, boundary-pushing fights in ONE Championship, technical brilliance, and unwavering character make him not just a phenomenal fighter, but a true ambassador of the sport. For these reasons, and so many more, Mighty Mouse flies high as arguably the greatest fighter of all time.

[@stevemcknelly5036]

If you're a true MMA fan, then you KNOW Demetrious is an absolute GOAT of the sport. That is not going to ever be in question.

[@ItIsYouAreNotYour]

Absolute INSANE statement. The weakest division of all time AND STILL, refused to go up, and stayed smashing cans. If he's the GOAT (he's not) he has one of the weakest resume's of all time. His level of competition just flat out ignored by people like you, is hilarious.

DJ was traded to ONE FC because Dana didn't earn much on him. Saying he sells less tickets and PPV's. Thinking he could pull a huge paycheck on Ben Askren, so he traded DJ for Ben. And that decision was a huge Karma for Dana. Ben becomes the punching bag of UFC's best. While on the other hand, ONE FC made huge sales from DJ. ONE is the real deal today who did not prioritize both how to make money and develop their fighters without favorites from the organization. Everyone is given a chance and given recognition. Dana is just a piece of shit. Today, ONE is slowly entering the USA. It's just matter of time for the UFC to fall down.

[@loganshaffer9090]

This is great work but I got to say, how come only his fights in ONE FC are covered and not his legendary run in the UFC? It could have made this video even better. Hell, I would have also thrown in his BJJ matches as well. It’s just feels like such a massive part of his career has been omitted.
