Fast forward to 2019 and the 35-year-old is preparing to make a comeback as a heavyweight. Although Johnson is eyeing a high-profile fight against the 205-pound champion Jon Jones, who he was meant to fight at UFC 187 before “Bones” was stripped of the title after his much-publicized hit-and-run incident involving a pregnant lady.
A clearly bulked Johnson recently told MMA Junkie that the only fight that would entice him to drop down to the 205-pounds would be Jones. Those comments haven’t gone down well with the champ, who made his feelings known on Twitter:
We’ve always been cool but I’ll be more than happy to choke you out if that’s what you’re looking for. @Anthony_Rumble

Since Johnson’s retirement, he launched his cannabis company, Competitive Body Development and was recently an ambassador for Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship.
