NBA Player James Johnson Says He Would Beat Jon Jones With 1 Year Of Training

I said he was the 16th pick in the NBA draft which is objectively true. Said nothing about experience. Sorry if the facts hurt your feelings.


Lets rephrase it to be accurate:

" Collegiate basketball player flames out of NBA due to extreme mental health problems, never plays in NBA, and washes up at 30 in regional MMA for a single fight "
 
Problem is that these ex NFL dudes come in already physically broken down from years of football/CTE

Take a fresh 1st round elite prospect and a couple years at a top MMA gym and they would fuck a lot of people up.
And that guy would be an mma fighter. You can’t train mma a couple of years and then claim wutang.
 
These bitches gonna cry when they have to cut weight.
 
Just because someone is tall and jumps high doesn't mean they can fight or that they're otherwise physically imposing. We've already seen ex NFL and college football players not do that well. And football players are generally considerably stronger, bigger, and arguably more explosive than NBA players.
 
Lol. NBA players are so uncoordinated outside of basketball.


There's a reason why many don't transition. NFL players have much more coordination and it shows
And then Rugby shits all over American Football as a base for MMA
 
NBA player james johnson is a dumb son of a bitch.

Wrong again. Hes logged in minutes in the NBA.
 
What a bullshit joke to call this guy an "NBA" player.

He has virtually ZERO NBA experience because he's got severe mental health and anxiety problems. He was traded around to the D leagues and eventually shown the door.

Elite pro-sport athletes don't trip and fall into regional MMA, this is a failed athlete that couldn't cut it and washed up on MMA's shores for a single fight.

Copecel alert
 
NBA players are some of the dumbest humans on earth. I say this as an NBA fan. 5'10 DC would make him his bitch let alone Jones. Jones is 6'4, he's 4 inches taller, not even a big deal.
And some of the highest paid humans on earth. They were smart enough not to do MMA for a living
 
It blows my mind that some ignorant people still think like this. Being a great athlete is never going to equal being a great fighter. There are so many other variables that contribute to top fighter's success aside than athleticism.

Ryan Leaf wasn’t most accurately described as a college player; because he was First Round draft or Heisman trophy finalist. Those later two details describe him more accurately.

A mid First round draft pick is more accurate; especially considering the NBA has just a two round draft.
