Anthony ‘Rumble’ Johnson
Anthony “Rumble” Johnson had some of the heaviest hands MMA has ever seen. A junior college national champion wrestler, he began in the UFC as a huge welterweight who missed weight repeatedly, was cut, and rebuilt himself at light heavyweight in World Series of Fighting.
His return to the UFC in 2014 brought a decision over Phil Davis and brutal knockouts of Alexander Gustafsson and Glover Teixeira and two title fights with Daniel Cormier. He retired in 2017, came back in Bellator in 2021 and died in 2022 aged 38. CagePotato covered his weight cuts, his comeback and his title runs.
