UFC president Dana White commented on the death of former UFC fighter Anthony Johnson, who died Nov. 13 after a years-long battle with an immune disease.
He was always a great guy. And he always put on an exciting fight. He had the ability to knock out with one punch, which a lot of people don't have. He was a good man. My condolences to his family.

Johnson last fought in the UFC against his compatriot Daniel Cormier in April 2017. In that encounter, Anthony was defeated by a choke in the second round.
Johnson made his UFC debut against his compatriot Phil Davis in April 2014. That fight ended in Anthony's favor by a unanimous decision of the judges. He had 23 wins and six losses in MMA.
