[WATCH] Demetrious Johnson Beats 248 LBS Opponent In A Jiu-Jitsu Match

Former UFC and current ONE champion Demetrious “The Mighty Mouse” Johnson displayed his Jiu-Jitsu skills yet again – this time at the Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Pan American Championship!

He first won gold in his division, but then moved to the absolute…
Where he showed why he has his nickname.

Standing at 5 feet 3 inches and weighing approximately 155 pounds for the competition, Johnson faced off against a 6 feet 3 inches and 248 pounds heavy Michael Sante Medina in the quarterfinals.
And, well – Johnson won the match despite the size difference!

Medina had nothing but great words about Mighty Mouse:

He’s a beast, man.
Keeping that dude still is the hardest thing I’ve ever done. He’s rough.

Johnson eventually made it to the finals match, but lost to Brendan Paul Gagnon – via Triangle Choke.

Check out his highlights from the Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Pan American Championship, including the match against Medina:
