A biography for Anthony Johnsonhasn’t been written yet.
“I don't believe in fighting any dog period.”
“When I was younger, I was young and wild.”
“I never come into a fight with any type of emotion.”
“Most people when I hit them once, they're done.”
“I just gotta keep improving until I know that if I end up in a certain situations I know that I can feel comfortable.”
“Every fight, I feel that I get better, and better.”
“There was only one person that was just too big for me and that was Andrei Arlovski.”
“I think NFT is a grand slam.”
“I'm a good wrestler.”
“Either I'm going out on my shield or you're going out on your shield. That's just what it is. I go out there and fight. I see an opening, I take it. You make a mistake, I take it.”
“I don't wait around. I do what I have to do to win. They make a mistake and it's lights out. That's just how it is.”
“I'm working hard to get to the title, I've been busting my butt off to get to the title.”
“When you're walking out to the cage and fighting a guy like Vitor Belfort and you've got the crowd going crazy, most people would lose the fight right there and then. Since I've fought in a crowd that crazy and wild, I feel that nothing else is going to be like that.”
“At 185 in the UFC they had Rich Franklin and Anderson Silva, and I couldn't go to 205 - they had Randy Couture, Chuck Liddell and all of those big guys. I just wasn't mature enough, so if I hadn't fought at 170 I probably wouldn't have had the career I've had.”
“I go in and I fight and I do my best, win or lose. That's just what it is with me.”
“Wrestling is not on my radar.”
“First and foremost, I want to be the champ.”
“I've been down a pretty crazy road. The story of me is pretty out there.”
“One thing you have to know is that I'm a guy who likes sweet drinks.”
