Honestly, just all the love and respect from the fans, that's always the biggest thing that puts a smile on my face.

Demetrious Johnson

I never cared who I was going to fight because, at the end of the day, it makes no difference.

Demetrious Johnson

Free Status Quote By - Demetrious Johnson

MMA has the rudest, most negative, dumbest, ignorant fans in the world - but it also has the most passionate fans in the world.

Demetrious Johnson


Free Status Quote By - Demetrious Johnson

I don't need to tell any one of you guys that I can do what I can do. I'll just show it to you guys, and if you want a little sneak peak, come watch me work out. That's how I do my thing.

Demetrious Johnson


Free Status Quote By - Demetrious Johnson

I'm a good dad. I'm an evolved dad. You know, you see a lot of guys when they're in training camp, they go off, do their own thing. But I'm in the midst of it. Swim lessons? I'm there. Changing diapers, teething, doctor's appointments, I'm there 24/7.

Demetrious Johnson


Free Status Quote By - Demetrious Johnson

That's kind of how I see my workmanship: it's how many hours I put in that makes me better.

Demetrious Johnson


Free Status Quote By - Demetrious Johnson

I focus on staying healthy, going to the gym, and I go out there and fight.

Demetrious Johnson


Free Status Quote By - Demetrious Johnson

I think the reason I'm the best pound-for-pound fighter in the world is I beat everyone in my division.

Demetrious Johnson


Free Status Quote By - Demetrious Johnson

I worked a full-time job at a place call Caraustar. We recycle paper, then through recycled paper, we take it and we make V board out of it. If you buy a TV, a new couch, you see these little V boards that make like a V.

Demetrious Johnson


Free Status Quote By - Demetrious Johnson

I don't like to disrespect people or my opponents. Anything can happen.

Demetrious Johnson


Free Status Quote By - Demetrious Johnson

I do not like getting hit. I can take a hit, but I don't want to damage my brain if I don't have to.

Demetrious Johnson


Free Status Quote By - Demetrious Johnson

UFC has failed to market and promote me appropriately.

Demetrious Johnson


Free Status Quote By - Demetrious Johnson

I think the only person who will ever lose in a fight and still end up making a million dollars is Conor McGregor - that's just because of how his contract is structured or whatever.

Demetrious Johnson


Free Status Quote By - Demetrious Johnson

Yes, I'm known as the most technical fighter in the world, and I'm going to keep that as my brand.

Demetrious Johnson


Free Status Quote By - Demetrious Johnson

When I got into this sport, I thought all I had to do was beat people and finish fights, and everything else would take care of itself.

Demetrious Johnson


Free Status Quote By - Demetrious Johnson

I'm the type of fighter who has never made an excuse. I fought with a broken rib, broken leg.

Demetrious Johnson


Free Status Quote By - Demetrious Johnson

It's always about bringing in the numbers, the viewership. That's what gets you the money.

Demetrious Johnson


Free Status Quote By - Demetrious Johnson

I'd rather have head stomps and kicks to the head on the ground rather than elbows because I think to kick someone in the head while they're laying on their back is very hard. Elbows are easy. You can be here, and I just cut you and won the fight.

Demetrious Johnson


Free Status Quote By - Demetrious Johnson

I always loved playing video games. It was something my mom did, and my sister played as well.

Demetrious Johnson


Free Status Quote By - Demetrious Johnson

I would have to say fantasy RPG and MMOs are my favorite type of games. I love 'Dark Souls II.' That game is so hard and unforgiving; if you beat that game, you have true skills.

Demetrious Johnson


Free Status Quote By - Demetrious Johnson

I'm very well-rounded. It's mixed martial arts.

Demetrious Johnson


Free Status Quote By - Demetrious Johnson

Honestly, I would love to fight Henry Cejudo. You've got that gold medalist in the Olympics, I would love to test myself against that.

Demetrious Johnson


Free Status Quote By - Demetrious Johnson

You look into an encyclopedia and ask what fighter can do any type of martial art at a high-caliber level, my picture will show up.

Demetrious Johnson


Free Status Quote By - Demetrious Johnson

I really, truly appreciate Conor McGregor's style - his fighting style and the way he talks. The reason why is because he reminds me of a young Mike Tyson, a young Muhammad Ali, the way he talks.

Demetrious Johnson


Free Status Quote By - Demetrious Johnson

Usain Bolt is the fastest man in the land; I'm the fastest man in mixed martial arts.

Demetrious Johnson


Free Status Quote By - Demetrious Johnson

I don't bash my company. I don't bash my opponents. I don't miss weight.

Demetrious Johnson


Free Status Quote By - Demetrious Johnson

That's the beautiful thing about mixed martial arts - and I'll tell people that - you have to think outside of the box.

Demetrious Johnson


Free Status Quote By - Demetrious Johnson

In wrestling, when I was in high school, my coach said you should be able to hit every single move from any position. So, arm drag to double-leg, snap-down to double-leg. You should be able to hit a move from anywhere, so with my armbar, I can essentially hit it from any position because it's my favorite submission.

Demetrious Johnson


Free Status Quote By - Demetrious Johnson

In the beginning of your mixed martial arts career, you're not making good money.

Demetrious Johnson


Free Status Quote By - Demetrious Johnson

At the end of the day, UFC is a business.

Demetrious Johnson


Free Status Quote By - Demetrious Johnson

I don't care about being the champ champ. I want to be the only consecutive 12-time defending champion in any mixed martial arts promotion.

Demetrious Johnson


Free Status Quote By - Demetrious Johnson

If you're going to make as much money as you are, when you're fighting someone else, that's the one thing I always tell people is I would never turn down the truly rightful No. 1 contender in my division, because the UFC can actually strip you. They can say, 'You're not going to fight the No. 1 contender. We can strip you.'

Demetrious Johnson


Free Status Quote By - Demetrious Johnson

I don't care if my opponents are cheating or not.

Demetrious Johnson


Free Status Quote By - Demetrious Johnson

The first time I fought Ian McCall, I cut carbs completely out of my diet all through training camp. I was afraid I wasn't going to make weight, that I'd get on the scale, and it would be all, 'He weighs 128,' and the people would throw cabbage at me. I basically cut all carbs on the diet, just eat chicken and greens all the time.

Demetrious Johnson


Free Status Quote By - Demetrious Johnson

There's money to be made, and I want mine.

Demetrious Johnson


Free Status Quote By - Demetrious Johnson

For me, I don't need to juice to make weight for my fights. I just do it for the health benefits - to keep my body healthy and to get my greens in me.

Demetrious Johnson


Free Status Quote By - Demetrious Johnson

I'm not going to go out there and have these slugfests, but I'll go out there and dominate my opponent. That's what I do in my fight.

Demetrious Johnson


Free Status Quote By - Demetrious Johnson

I wasn't a person who hated working. When I was working and training, I loved it. I loved that I had to work that hard. I think it transformed into the gym and then transformed into the octagon. It was a good thing.

Demetrious Johnson


Free Status Quote By - Demetrious Johnson

Obviously I'd love to see Demetrious Johnson, you know, 'Demetrious Johnson $500,000 payout baby,' absolutely.

Demetrious Johnson


Free Status Quote By - Demetrious Johnson

Pay-Per-View is run by drama. It is. It's true. I've done the research for myself. You look at Jon Jones. When Jon Jones fought Machida, probably did about $200,000, $300,000. When he fought Cormier, they made, like, $875,000.

Demetrious Johnson


Free Status Quote By - Demetrious Johnson

I'm just a small guy.

Demetrious Johnson


Free Status Quote By - Demetrious Johnson

That's all I care about is being healthy.

Demetrious Johnson


Free Status Quote By - Demetrious Johnson

As a fighter, I pay very close attention to the amount of marketing that goes into and around my fights, and I can tell you that you'd be hard pressed to find much that has been done to promote me outside of 'TUF 24,' which was minimal in comparison to other fights, fighters, and shows.

Demetrious Johnson


Free Status Quote By - Demetrious Johnson

Look at my track record for showing up to fights. Look at my track record of finishing fights. Look at my track record of getting fight night bonuses. Ask yourself if you think that if the UFC decided to truly put marketing dollars behind me that they couldn't sell me or my fights.

Demetrious Johnson


Free Status Quote By - Demetrious Johnson

You're starting to see a lot of fighters, like, 'We want more money so we can be able to retire eventually,' instead of, we get to 30 years old, and we're like, 'Alright, I think Costco has openings.'

Demetrious Johnson


Free Status Quote By - Demetrious Johnson

I want the whole world to watch me fight. But you know if people are just tuning in to hear me trash talk are not fight fans.

Demetrious Johnson


Free Status Quote By - Demetrious Johnson

For me, you look at the beginning of his career, the man couldn't even make weight. That's how I found out about Henry Cejudo to begin with. 'Oh, Henry Cejudo misses weight again.' I'm like, who's this guy who keeps missing weight. When the UFC signed him, I was like, 'Great, you guys signed another guy who can't make 125.'

Demetrious Johnson


Free Status Quote By - Demetrious Johnson

That's one of the things I loved about Pride: the first round was ten minutes.

Demetrious Johnson


Free Status Quote By - Demetrious Johnson

I grew up with a single mom, two brothers, and a sister, and after school, we would play outside then go home for dinner and play videogames together. It's something I enjoy doing, and it's also cheap entertainment compared to a movie or paying for cable. You pay $50 one time for a game, and you can play it as many times as you want.

Demetrious Johnson


Free Status Quote By - Demetrious Johnson

'Super Contra' was the game I fell in love with. I played and beat that game with my mom.

Demetrious Johnson


Free Status Quote By - Demetrious Johnson

I saw Bobby Green and Lando Vannata, and everybody in the back was like, 'Oh, man, that's a sick fight!' And I'm like, 'Dude, look at his face, that cannot be good for his brain.' I'm just honest.

Demetrious Johnson


Free Status Quote By - Demetrious Johnson

I come from one of the great coaches - Matt Hume, Brad Kertson - and my skill set is well-rounded.

Demetrious Johnson


Free Status Quote By - Demetrious Johnson

There are things - I want to compete in a big tournament, like an eight-man tournament, like the old fighters. You're going to compete; you're going to fight this one and this one.

Demetrious Johnson


Free Status Quote By - Demetrious Johnson

At one point in time in my career, it was like, 'Oh, he never finishes nobody.' Then, the next thing you know, I'm breaking peoples' arms, making them tap out, and knocking them out. Then, the next thing you know, it's, 'Oh, I don't like his personality.' It's like, 'Okay, well, if you don't like who I am, I can't help you there, buddy.'

Demetrious Johnson


Free Status Quote By - Demetrious Johnson

If you want to see great mixed martial arts, tune in when I fight. If you want to see drama and all of that stuff, you guys can go watch 'Bachelors in Paradise.' They'll give you enough drama you can want to watch.

Demetrious Johnson


Free Status Quote By - Demetrious Johnson

Truly, I am not afraid of one man in this whole UFC Octagon roster. I truly don't care. What's the worst thing that's going to happen to me? I lose. I get knocked out?

Demetrious Johnson


Free Status Quote By - Demetrious Johnson

I'm not looking for people to put that vote on me to be prom king of the UFC.

Demetrious Johnson


Free Status Quote By - Demetrious Johnson

Each time I'm training and sparring, I'm always pushing myself to submit my training partners.

Demetrious Johnson


Free Status Quote By - Demetrious Johnson

I'm not in the business to get hit and take concussions.

Demetrious Johnson


Free Status Quote By - Demetrious Johnson

If I went up there and beat T.J. Dillashaw at 135 pounds, I have no interest whatsoever in staying at 135. People are like, 'Why not?' and I'm like, 'I have no interest in fighting guys who walk around at 160 pounds.'
