Wie denkt aan de UFC, denkt aan gespierde vechtmachines die alles behalve nerds en geeks zijn. Maar een aantal van deze MMA vechters zijn dus hardcore nerds die gamen en comics verzamelen. Daarom heeft de website Topless Robot nu deze top tien gemaakt en één daar van kan je hier onder vinden.

4. Demetrious "Mighty Mouse" Johnson

Nerd Qualifications: Come on. With a name like "Mighty Mouse," you had to know the UFC's Flyweight champ was going to end up on this list.

Another shrimp of a man, Johnson stands 5'3" tall and is arguably the fastest and most technical fighter in the world. He's never lost in his natural weight class of 125 lbs, and he probably won't for a long, long time to come, if ever.

Johnson is a pro athlete and a family man, but the white picket fence and nice-guy veneer covers up a dark secret: DJ is one of the most competitive and aggressive Xbox players in the world. He specializes in the realm of the shooter, pwning noobs in COD and Destiny, but he also shines in - appropriately enough - fighting games, his lightning-fast reflexes apparently giving him an unfair advantage over less equipped nerds.

Also, he totally drops a Shao Khan reference in this quote pulled from an episode of The MMA Hour.

Until the UFC's recent and much-maligned sponsorship agreement with Reebok, Johnson was the sole UFC fighter to be sponsored by Xbox ONE, and I'll be damned if I said the green didn't suit him.
