An Anthony Johnson Career Retrospect

At the age of 33, and after a ten year professional mixed martial arts career, Anthony Johnson has decided to hang up the gloves.

Following a second-round submission loss to UFC light heavyweight champion Daniel Cormier, “Rumble” announced his plans to move on and pursue other avenues.
