Demetrius Chrysna Johnson

Demetrius Johnson, aka Invincible Mouse, is an American mixed martial arts fighter who has been fighting at the flyweight title since 2012.

Over the years of participation in professional fights Mouse has established himself as a fighter with amazing physical data and ability to win battles regardless of the tactics imposed by opponents.

Demetrius Chrysna Johnson was born on August 13, 1986, in Madisonville, Kentucky, but later moved to Parkland, D.C., with his mother. As a child, the life of the future fighter was not easy: the boy's father died before his birth, leaving no photo, mother Karen Johnson was deaf and mute. The woman's second husband was a bad man and treated her stepson badly.

Sport interested Johnson as a child: he was engaged in wrestling and running, and in running in school years the young man repeatedly achieved success.

After graduating from school, Demetrius began working 40 hours a week in a woodworking factory, but workloads and lack of time did not force him to give up training. He did not leave work at the factory until 2011.

This period of biography of the athlete was also difficult - in addition to work and hard training, he had to care for his mother, who suffered from bone cancer.

Johnson began to get involved in mixed martial arts around the same time as working. The man held his first amateur fight in MMA in 2006, and in 2007 he fought in the professional ring - the fight ended with the victory of Demetrius in the 17th second of the 1st round.

After that, the athlete won 8 fights in a row, and also won the Alaska Fighting Championships, which secured him a contract with WEC. The first fight in the World Extreme Cagefighting on April 24, 2010, Demetrius held the bantamweight title, but the opponent Brad Picket was stronger. After 3 rounds Picket won by unanimous decision. Six months later, Johnson rehabilitated, bringing the first defeat to Nick Pace.

On October 28, 2010, World Extreme Cagefighting merged with the UFC, and as part of the merger, all fighters were transferred to the Ultimate Fighting Championship. After three more fights, Johnson in 2011 went up against Dominic Cruz for the UFC bantamweight title, but this time the victory went to the opponent.

A year later, Demetrius fought Ian McCall. After three full rounds, the referee's decision was announced, according to which Johnson won. However, UFC President Dana White later announced that there had been a mistake and in fact the result of the fight was a draw. Three months after the first fight, Johnson took revenge, in which he still won an unequivocal victory.

Having moved from the bantamweight to the flyweight, Demetrius in the autumn of 2012 went to fight with Joseph Benavidez, who was defeated by the majority of judges. On December 14, 2013, a rematch took place between the fighters. Johnson completed the fight with a powerful knockout in the first round, becoming the first man to knock out Benavidez.

On June 14, 2014, Demetrius Johnson fought Russian athlete Ali Bagautinov. By unanimous decision, the victory in the fight was awarded to Demetrius, and the Russian on July 10 was accused of using erythropoietin and suspended from the competition for a year.

On April 23, 2016, Johnson's opponent was Henry Sehudo, an American fighter of Mexican descent, Olympic champion in freestyle wrestling. After 2 minutes 49 seconds, the Olympian was counted a technical knockout thanks to Demetrius's knee blows to the body.

Johnson met with Sehudo again on August 5, 2018. Their fight at UFC 227 was considered the second most important and tension of the fight met the expectations of MMA fans. The fight lasted 5 rounds, during which the fighters intercepted each other's initiative.

It was difficult to identify the unequivocal leader, and the judges' opinions were divided - one favored Johnson, but the other two sided with Sehudo. Demetrius, who had successfully defended the title 11 times in a row, parted ways with him, and Henry became the second UFC flyweight champion. The fight itself was called the "Best Fight of the Evening."

Unlike childhood and adolescence, the personal life of the fighter turned out well. On May 11, 2012, Demetrius Johnson married Destinie Bartels, whom he had known since high school - they met while working at the Red Lobster chain restaurant.

According to the man, his wife is the best in his life, the only person who has always believed in him and supported everything. This understanding is well illustrated by the fact that the girl even agreed to wait on her honeymoon until the husband had finished the training cycle to prepare for the fight.

The couple have three children: in 2013, the son Tyreen was born, in 2015 - another son Maverick, and in August 2018 was born daughter Tanit. The fighter's attachment to the family is clearly demonstrated by his Instagram account - in it Johnson posted a lot of photos of his wife and children, both together and separately.

Demetrius continues to be a "fly" and maintain the shape necessary for the lightest weight by MMA standards: at the height of 160 cm the weight of the athlete is 56.7 kg.

On October 28, 2018, an event that the tabloids called a "historic exchange" - ufc and Asian league ONE Championship came to an agreement to exchange the Invincible Mouse for Ben Ascrene.

Now Demetrius does not hide that he is satisfied with this arrangement: sharp and tactless methods of promotion of fights in the U.S. never liked the fighter. Johnson is a calm and non-conflict person, so the mutual accusations and provocations characteristic of American athletes were very disappointing. In Asian countries, according to the fighter, mutual respect is the basis of communication with people, and the fight is just a way to test your strength.

Whether the transfer will affect Johnson's career, and if it does, how - time will tell.
