“Mighty Mouse” Announcing Change to His Nickname

Reebok recently revealed a new line of gear for the UFC’s octagon competitors. However, fans quickly began to point out an error in the apparel company’s new shirt for UFC flyweight champion Demetrious Johnson. Now, it would appear that there was actually no error at all.

Demetrious “Mighty Mouse” Johnson’s new shirt, which can be seen below, refers to the champion as simply Demetrious “Mighty” Johnson.

Johnson recently went to The Blue Corner, as transcribed by MMA Fighting, to explain that this was not error. The fighter wishes to drop the “mouse” moniker.

“I never gave myself the nickname ‘Mighty Mouse.’ Hopefully down the road, I’ll change it to just Demetrious ‘Mighty’ Johnson.” He said.
