AUSTIN, TEXAS: In the world of mixed martial arts, few names shine as brightly as Demetrious Johnson, the reigning ONE Flyweight MMA World Champion.
While he's widely regarded as one of the very best fighters on the planet, 'Mighty Mouse' still doesn't always receive the recognition he deserves, despite arguably being the greatest of all time in the sport.
Joe Rogan, an avid admirer of the ONE Flyweight World Champion, has never hesitated to shower him with praise, hailing him as one of the most well-rounded martial artists to ever grace the world of MMA.
Demetrious Johnson: An unsung MMA legend in the Flyweight Division
During a recent episode of the Fight Companion podcast on 'The Joe Rogan Experience', Rogan delved into why 'DJ' may not have achieved mainstream stardom despite his incredible talent.
He suggested that Johnson's flyweight status might be the sole reason he isn't recognized as one of the "baddest men in the world."
Rogan lamented, "It sucks! How people don’t, like, appreciate them because they’re so small. Like [Mighty Mouse] never got his just dues. He’s the best, like the most beautiful expression of martial arts I’ve ever seen. He’s awesome. And he’s such a great guy. Mighty Mouse is the f**king man.”
Demetrious Johnson's humility and dedication to his craft have been evident in his demeanor and actions throughout his career. He doesn't compete for praise or stardom; instead, he competes for the love of the sport and the pursuit of excellence.
However, it's undeniable that 'Mighty Mouse' deserves recognition and appreciation for the legendary career he has carved out - a career that may never be duplicated in the flyweight division across any MMA promotion.
His mastery of the sport, his technical brilliance, and his sportsmanship are all testaments to his status as a true MMA icon, even if he sometimes remains underrated in the eyes of the wider world.
