Demetrious Johnson shares some educational wisdom with fan during Reddit AMA

Demetrious Johnson has always made the effort to engage with his fans whenever he can.

Alongside being one of the greatest mixed martial artists of all time, ‘Mighty Mouse’ is known for his YouTube and Twitch platforms where he breaks down fights and engages in his other favorite pastime, gaming.

Through his various outlets, Johnson is able to share his personality with fans, allowing them to engage with him as he plays video games live on stream before watching him compete in ONE Championship.

Ahead of his return to the circle at ONE Fight Night 10 on Prime Video where he will face Adriano Moraes for a third time, the ONE flyweight world champion conducted a Reddit AMA.

Giving his fans the opportunity to ask any burning questions that they wanted his opinion on, most of the questions were about his career, but some took the opportunity to ask for advice from one of the best minds in combat sports.

User Cgb591rocks said that he wants to follow in the footsteps of one of the greatest of all time and reached out for advice from ‘Mighty Mouse’.

He asked:

“DJ, what advice would you give a young man [me], fighting a neuromuscular disease that wants to grow up to be just like you [fight in StreetBeefs and probably lose]”

Whilst he may have been expecting some martial arts advice from DJ, he got some wise words that were more in the direction of pursuing something else entirely.

Johnson said:

“Be better than me go to college get a good education and create a product that will bring you millions”

Cgb591rocks replied to DJ with a brainwave:

“Might Mouse bobbleheads coming soon to a store near you!”

Unfortunately, for this particular user, it seems that Johnson already beat him to it:

“Already did some dont think you can buy them anymore”

At ONE Fight Night 10 on May 5, Demetrious Johnson will look to defend the ONE flyweight world title against Adriano Moraes in their trilogy match-up at 1stBank Center in one of the biggest main events in the history of ONE Championship.

North American viewers can watch all the action from ONE Fight Night 10 via Prime Video live and for free.
