Coming to watch this back after hearing of his passing. Rest Peacefully Rumble. ❤

[@mikepsly73]

What was so weird it wasn't like he was in hospice. He was walking around up until the last day to my knowledge. Then just dropped dead. It was so weird

[@et3538]

Anthony ' Humble ' Johnson

[@Chris75717]

Elty Tran nice

[@vappo2664]

He is gonna open his own Restaurant. He seems like a gentle Giant

[@durtyweeman1]

SlurpDatTuna 666 think his ex would disagree.lol

[@792bnz]

wightlines 1 a woman knows how to push those buttons and we don't know the full story. she could be lying for all we know. just keep an open mind

[@durtyweeman1]

792bnz I agree 100% bud, been in situation myself but never left a mark on them. grab wrist sit them down and leave. and ive git zero martial arts experience. defo agree mate but a picture paints 1000 words ✌

[@8xnnr]

how does it stay on your record if she dropped the charges?

[@hg2460]

the arrest stays even if the charges dont. certain felony arrest stays on your record for 10 years until you can get a lawyer and have the possibility to remove it. just the arrest itself can prevent you from getting alot of jobs or joining the military. not only that but they throw the book at you and charge you with more than one crime that mean the same thing. MOST of the charges dropped but some will stay for the 10. every state is different but thats how it works here unfortunately for me

[@JohnSmith-cr9rt]

What a humble guy, nothing but respect

[@erkkipihalerssi7686]

Humble, softspoken, nice to everyone and genuine. The exact opposite of Jones.

[@NicoAle96]

Erkki Pihalerssi but I like both

[@gideonbelinfante8293]

Thomas T True, more like Rumble around women.....

[@neveroffended45]

He's gonna team up with Edmund as his coach and their gonna take over boxing.

[@johngrigorian3093]

Rumble will be wrestling coach

[@ImA4RONxD]

"I AM BOXING" - Rumble

[@TheFlumped]

He said nothing related with fighting

[@Calel_S]

He'd be a monstrous kick boxer.

[@NGooodi]

Well, Edmuns isnt related with fighting lol

[@jacobdecker7057]

A true warrior. Will be missed dearly

[@cynic2202]

Bittersweet. gonna miss him, but I cannot fault a man for doing what he feels is best for him. Much Respect to rumble. fan 4life.

[@moustafabarakat9063]

I Love Rumble, however i cant stop feeling like he threw the fight by wrestling because he didn't want to stay as champion.

[@chillneal1]

He threw the fight I want my money back

[@yeahbraah]

i feel he threw that fight for some reason thats why his coaches werent there. as if that would be his gameplan to try wrestle dc.

[@MillsFirst]

Moustafa Barakat stay as champion? What are you even talking about?

[@moustafabarakat9063]

He initiated the wrestling

[@joselanda3645]

Moustafa Barakat lil bitchass boi's that hate DC would say that hahaha 😂😂

[@ecdctech]

i love rumble , great fighter , saw him make his first ufc fight , but did anybody think he quit ?? didnt even defend the choke ,

[@SliceofBread123]

ECDCTECH rhat and the fact that he kept clinching makes me almost think fix

[@almostafa4725]

ECDCTECH let's be honest, he always quits if he can't KO his opponent

[@ecdctech]

Marcel Wallace just been busy with college and been training more, I was 15 when I started uploading , and computer science is a very challenging major .

[@ecdctech]

Al Mostafa yeah he kinda does , oh well , maybe his body just quits on him or he has injuries that make him quit

[@Reluctanceone]

i honestly think UFC is WWE ...after the fight, he even said something weird, like "thank you to the people I told not to come watch the fight" or something similar to that...thats fishy af...

[@ma1ist]

what Cruz was saying stuck with me. still takes balls to go through with a decision you feel is right but everyone is shaking their heads at. let's just be happy Rumble provided some quality entertainment in his career and wish him the best of luck.

[@creed87]

So sad that he wasn’t being truthful when he said it’s nothing health related 😔 it was. That’s when his troubles really got serious. This is a hard one to take. Rest easy brother ❤️

[@briangriffith4574]

He retired because he invested a bunch of money in a Marijuana business

[@livefreevinnie]

RIP AJ - We miss you already and always stay humble. God always take the good ones.

[@kungfukennytde6065]

he always entertained his fans much respect

[@tomhinds8168]

Anyone here after his passing? 😩 what a diamond, im speechless

[@DontNeedToKnow84]

If Rumble had the mentality of Diego Sanchez, he'd be unstoppable.

[@tay1545]

no lol, just no

[@glenmcnay4433]

Actually, yes.

[@Never24Summer]

Diego is an absolute savage. So yes I agree.

[@sillynelson1]

DontNeedToKnow84 Thats such a good way to put it.

[@paulaannajackson6542]

explosive, powerful, unbreakable mind. yeah he'd be unstoppable

[@andrewstewart5400]

He's going to WWE im callin it.

[@715vapes6]

Andrew Stewart nfl

[@novanillailla4399]

MARVEL MOVIE WATCH .

[@Swrt_]

Andrew Stewart i heard football.

[@easonchan7839]

Swart he said no on twitter

[@coffeeblak86]

but he's a quitter...

[@trill4177]

Rumble should of at least stayed to fight Jon Jones. Thats a better match up for him.

[@trill4177]

Patrick Star You are a casual. Jones has been sitting on the sidelines, while Johnson has been knocking out people left and right. Jones in his prime is GOAT, this new Jon Jones would get washed.

[@angelom4930]

Based Trill yep I would've love to see that fight!!

[@elitemcstudios]

rumble has had issues with eye pokes in the past. I doubt a fight with jones would be beneficial to him as Jones is notorious for getting away with multiple eye pokes per fight

[@ericsmusic5927]

Based Trill to be fair, we only seen one fight from the new Jones and knowing Jones that is most likely temporary

[@trill4177]

Child Rebel Soldier It was a 5 round fight so it was long enough so see what Jones is capable of but I see your point.

[@awol1209]

that was a nice interview. He is really such a classy guy, I wish the best for him.

[@cmejia4401]

my favorite fighter right now. wish he got the title man

[@samgerland6087]

Don't follow UFC very much, but this dude is so humble! What a hero. I hope this decision he has made is the right for him, but he seems fairly confident with it so I'm sure he knows what he's doing. Respect.

[@waawaaweewaa2045]

I always liked Johnsons demeanor, seems like a cool dude. Wishing success in whatever you do brah.

[@alfonsosantos4011]

God bless this brotha..best Wishes​ on his new project..

[@kevinpriscov8249]

Rumble, you're a champ in my eyes. Great fighter...great character

[@fuckboystudios5588]

Rest in pc my guy it was a pleasure watching your matches!!

[@Bluecollarrider]

Love Johnson, very respectful fighter and always professional. UFC lost a great fighter last night, hopefully we'll see him again.

[@visiteverestannapurnanepal7810]

REST IN PEACE RUMBLE

[@Henny2times]

Good luck in the NFL

[@wbpretorius5088]

was wondering about that, someone at the press conference was talking about football.

[@easonchan7839]

Harvey H. nah he dismissed that on twitter

[@PHreshlySnipez13]

Harvey H. He's a great athlete and besides the fact he said that wasn't it I don't know what makes people think he could walk on the Rams lol

[@Tormenta619CHIVISTA]

When my athletic abilities diminish I will probably join the NFL. -Kenny Florian

[@valeryastarkshield8278]

He is gonna be the new defensive tackle of the LA Rams. Bets are on.

[@comptonassrockett4218]

It's da middle of 2020, we still have our arms opened, waiting 4 you brotha

[@jimthomason9328]

God Bless your Rumble! You've been one of the most entertaining fighters of all time! You have always been profession and in my opinion a blueprint for the type of attitude fighters should strive for. I wish you the best. idk but something is telling me your going on a spiritual journey or something. Peace be with you!

[@carlvincent12]

I almost teared up when he was asking "where are my coaches? Where's Henry?"

[@Strategistdating]

Anthony May God Bless you in all that you do Brother!

[@FPerez-ti5kj]

I'm crying...

[@skating7791]

He's definitely going to play football, i'll be eagerly waiting to see where he signs.

[@Lagi_zz]

My favorite fighter gone he had a great career tho

[@snj1990]

The best of luck to rumble Johnson on his future endeavors. He was a great fighter and an even better human being.

[@Hassounevo]

Such a gentle soul... RIP

[@boogiedown87ify]

Rumble man don't retire!! I love watching you fight!!

[@israelgonzalez39]

What a freaking nice man. Gotta appreciate that, good luck to you man.

[@scottmartinez749]

Thanks for so many entertaining fights best of luck to you Rumble

[@toma3447]

[@Grimm-hb7ek]

[@Octagon-samurai]

Thank you Rumble

[@leodavies9383]

good luck in the future anthony Johnson you inspire people

[@mmanut]

SUCH A CLASSY MAN, RIP RUMBLE JOHNSON🙏❤️👊

[@aceeoutlaw554]

good guy.. very humble

[@Pinupred21]

Rumble squad for life!!!!!!

[@dantemarotta356]

Good luck to him. .he's been awesome

[@GrumpyBottom]

I think people generally have a hard time understanding what it must do to a someone psychologically when you have to fight a person who could take your best attacks and went on to strangle you half to death. I have a feeling Rumble stepped in that octagon and the feeling that came over him solidified the doubts in his mind.

[@SonofThunder]

LOVE rumble Johnson!

[@CizzaAU]

I always knew you would be a golfer AJ. Just keep those hips tight, eye on the ball and aim for the green. You got this champ.

[@Bolththrower]

Big respect!

[@TheEddie1401]

this dude is so humble

[@elementohsix]

Those hands, that power. So sad to see rumble go but wish him the best.

[@sjcobra84]

Life decisions. I respect his choice. Thanks for being a talented personality in the light heavyweight division.

[@oggandelfino1255]

very very sad night much respect for rumble hope to the future is bright !!!

[@robertedwards6561]

A true gentleman of the sport respect to the man

[@biohybrid_396]

I wish him lots of success.. he's a great fighter and obviously very humble lol

[@northerncali0194]

Happy for rumble, good luck on your next venture.

[@kylescott127]

Gonna miss Rumble but wish him the best of luck hope to see him in the future

[@srthatejeep]

hes starting his rap career "young rumble"

[@crowythebutcher6127]

Nothing but the best wishes for rumble wherever he goes his the nicest guy on the planet

[@phosgene2]

even with possible inside info knowing this guy was checking out, he was still favored vs a champ as good as dc--that's how much respect his hands get.....

[@jungkookievbts]

Please Come Back Ufc Need U

[@breakdancerQ]

I feel sorry when his corner just left him there in a moment that was very important to him, in that moment he looked like a lost little abandoned dog, while he's a monster being. I understand that his corner was very frustrated with him not executing the gameplan at all but still they knew he was going to retire and they *still* should've stand by him despite all that!!!

[@marcollamas4554]

He is going into movies !! watch

[@UltimateBattleRap]

Marco Llamas i hope so

[@marcuslarsson8997]

I highly doubt it.

[@Shootskas]

He was great in Warrior! lol

[@bvnnbv]

All the best AJ. Top fighter and top man!

[@bostonboucher7778]

He might of pulled out of UFC, But he ain't pulling out of her tonight

[@JordanGordon-Naish]

you'll be missed rumble, thank you for your fights.

[@LZ-ky6ty]

he will be back eventually guaranteed it just sucks he wants to leave while in his prime

[@eddiebarrett3562]

love this dude

[@True2LifeVidz]

My theory right now is that the WWE reached out to Rumble with huge dollar signs after the Lesnar-Goldberg feud came to an end after WrestleMania, in desperate need of someone who is a "real fighter" to challenge Lesnar, Rumble obviously accepted the offer and decided to continue fighting DC at 210, but threw the fight, wanting the big final UFC payday to end his career, leading up to Monday's Raw Draft where there will be a segment where Brock Lesnar calls out anyone who is legit fighting competition to the Universal title and that's when Rumble debuts, setting up the first feud in WWE history to involve two former UFC fighters, putting some legitimacy to the WWE product in hopes of more popularity. You can thank me later for my prediction. 😊

[@MrJohnnyAOA]

WWE is highly likely, Dude.

[@tylarkreidler1182]

True2LifeVidz sounds like it would actually happen

[@TheOrac]

i think its boxing thats where the money is at and its a better sport and guys are slowly realizing this

[@dedmansurfing]

Cinci Champ Rumble's contract and the UFC's reach thx to the new owners prevent that. He will never do combat sports again unless he returns to the UFC.

[@dedmansurfing]

MMA Expert I misclicked and responded to you. My bad I was referring to Boxing. But WWE is sports entertainment not theater so UFC can stop him there as well.

[@BIPOCPODCAST]

he will be back

[@heeggie]

humble Rumble. such a legend

[@timmerjoy8781]

Rest in peace brother

[@timurjoro1995]

Rumble is a humble!

[@yesyes3452]

Gone to soon…..a powerful legend in the sport of MMA Anthony Rumble Johnson R.I.P x Never forget that if the Almighty wills, He can take you at any time, any place. You could be in the pink of health but if He says you must go, you’ll have to leave this world. So live in a state of preparedness and always be grateful for another day !

[@stevekeenan9673]

this guy is a class act

[@chispa124]

Athletes especially combat athletes, should get a great money coach. So they can live well in later years, and still have all their faculties.

[@user-ox6zk2qq2u]

Megan is going to miss Anthony Johnson

[@anthonysefo8615]

Haha

[@dumbass3770]

big bad dude and so humble

[@dirtyd1886]

all the best for future Rumble maybe we can see you come back later on

[@mohammedshafiq6480]

AJ is a great fighter and a cool guy..... hopefully we seem him back soon

[@duskdismantled6485]

I'm crying

[@eliqk3qt2rg5v]

despite this who else believes anthony will return in near future ?

[@aliassa2436]

my advice to him is to join k1 he's very good standing up I think that's will be the best for him

[@Godscountry2732]

Great guy !!!

[@KamranKhan-ec7sq]

Great guy!

[@vanquishable7844]

RIP ANTHONY HUMBLE RUMBLE JOHNSON

[@bob645core]

#Respect

[@aidan4891]

hard to dislike rumble. good luck to him.

[@rumham4766]

The most explosive fighter ever

[@rowanforrester7978]

I really wish Johnson wasn't leaving he's such a great fighter

[@chrgon951]

Rest in peace rumble 🤍

[@MrWolfchamp-xi3cu]

Shocked. Just finding out about this. I though if he stuck it out for like 2 or 3 more fights and he would be champ. He only had like 1 loss out of his last 10 fights or something. So he's pretty much in his prime.

[@Teyo87]

This guy seem like a legit nice guy

[@hallmonitor98]

anyone know how many fights he has left on his Conned tract?

[@phillg2222]

Sad notice today, RIP Anthony

[@Lord_of_the_Pies]

reminds me of the guy that puts in his two week notice and shows up late to work every day. hard to respect people like that.

[@marstillo8087]

Thank you I missed it out of Cali. People tell me was it good?? Did I miss anything?
