Former UFC title challenger Anthony “Rumble” Johnson shockingly retired in the prime of his career.
After a lengthy stint as a UFC welterweight, that saw mixed results and an eventual UFC release, Johnson would eventually stop the drastic weight cut, and find resurgence in the 205 pound division.
Once back in the UFC, Johnson quickly became one of the most elite knock out artists on the UFC’s roster.
After his UFC 210 title loss to Daniel Cormier, Johnson took to the post fight microphone and announced his sudden retirement.
In the coming weeks, Johnson would reveal that he’d gone into the marijuana business, and now six months out and Johnson is still high on his new business venture.
In a new post to Twitter, Anthony Johnson spoke out about the cannabis business.
“The marijuana business is bigger than what most realize. You don’t have to believe in the product but it’s powerful and useful”
