Taking to Instagram, Johnson shared insights into this new phase of his journey:
Starting my MMA workouts tomorrow.
I’m coming into this in pretty good conditioning and cardio shape, but MMA is a different animal.And Mark Kerr was a ‘one of one’ monster.
I run to this Smashing Machine journey with deep respect and love for all MMA fighters and the culture.
Especially those who have struggled with addiction.
I’ve lost so many friends (wrestlers) over the years from addiction and mental health struggle – from suicide to, it was just their time to go.
This is my love letter to them.
Let’s get to work.
