Demetrious Johnson, one of the most talented but less famous boxers in MMA history, has no problem with the Influencer and Youtuber stepping on the ring.
Former Flyweight King of UFC and the candidate for the One Championship belt the celebrity like Jake Paul and Logan Paul are really trying to practice and deserve to be recognized for attracting such great attention to their matches.
“When you are not financially bound, when you have millions of dollars and you do not have to work at 9am – 5pm, you can approach the best coaches, the best diet, you practice 8 weeks to confront someone, you will become a product of something,” Johnson said in an interview with One Championship.
“Therefore, people think that Jake Paul and Logan Paul sit on video games all day, but the truth is not like that. These guys are practicing as professional athletes. These people practice better than some professional athletes who have played for more than 10 years.”
Johnson understood why MMA boxers lost boxing in both reputation and remuneration. Although he once dominated the Flyweight weight class, Demetrious Johnson was still inferior to many other famous names, which is why more than anyone else, he understands the importance of branding.
Johnson asserted: “I support YouTube users, Tiktokers because the most important thing is to make money. Those people have a large number of tracking and many athletes complain that Jake Paul, Logan Paul and similar celebrities are earning millions of dollars.
The fact that it is important to understand is the most important thing is the brand. It is what makes money. I learned that Bau when playing in the US.
