Bradley Martyn, a prominent bodybuilder and YouTuber, has been at the center of a whirlwind of speculation in the MMA community. It appears he may soon be stepping into the ring. On the Callabassis Fight Companion, MMA commentator Brendan Schaub hinted that Demetrious ‘Mighty Mouse’ Johnson is eyeing a fight with Martyn, slated for when Johnson returns from vacation.
Bradley Martyn: Fitness Personality and Provocateur
Martyn is a widely followed fitness persona, who has cultivated a considerable audience on YouTube and social media platforms. He has been at the helm of major ventures such as The Full Send Podcast and Bradley Martyn’s Raw Talk Podcast. Martyn is no stranger to the limelight, often generating headlines for his Herculean strength.
In the Spotlight: Martyn’s Controversial Remarks
Of late, Martyn’s comments have attracted attention. One instance that caught the public eye was when he unabashedly told Pro boxer Devin Haney that he could ‘beat his ass’ in a street fight. While his audacious remark prompted a flurry of reactions, the majority of MMA aficionados simply dismissed it. The conversation intensified post Martyn’s podcast with former UFC fighter Nate Diaz, where he suggested he could likely hold his own against Diaz in a street fight. Furthermore, Martyn’s negative commentary on Jake Paul drew a reaction from Jake’s brother, Logan Paul.

Potential Showdowns: From YouTube Star to MMA Legend
Earlier this week, Martyn stirred the pot by inviting Logan Paul to his Zoo Culture gym for a ‘no cameras’ match. While spectators were quick to anticipate a duel between the two, Martyn’s first fight may well be against an MMA icon. Demetrious ‘Mighty Mouse’ Johnson, a celebrated former UFC Flyweight champion and the current One Championship Flyweight champion, seems to be Martyn’s impending challenger.

Schaub firmly believes that due to his absence of combat experience, Martyn stands little chance against Johnson and could likely face defeat.

“I think the clip of us is at over 8 million views now, of me telling you Mighty Mouse would beat you up. A little update on that, spoke to Mighty Mouse because he reposted the clip. I was like, ‘Yo man,’ I tell – all fighters hit me up about you. I’m like, ‘He’s my boy, good dude, trolling also but he’s really humble, works his ass off, really disciplined.’ Anybody who meets you is going to love you,” said Brendan Schaub.
“I told Mighty Mouse that you’re a good dude, he’s like, ‘Yeah, no doubt. Just tell him, I’m down. It’s not going to go well.’ I tell him, ‘No I know, that’s why I want it to go down.’ He goes, ‘I have to go on vacation.’ I can’t say where he’s going, he said I’m going on vacation, but let’s figure it out, but I’ll come to LA just let me know.”
Martyn looked forward to meeting Johnson for a fight.“I can’t wait. I can’t wait,” said Bradley Martyn.
Schaub says he spoke to DJ.

Martyn Discusses Potential Match-Up, Confident Against 150-Pound Opponent
Expanding on the potential fight, Martyn boldly expressed that he would easily overpower a rival weighing 150 pounds.
“I’d crush him, 150 pounds is like a towel to me,” said Martyn.
“Demetrious Johnson who fights at 125 in a street fight would fuck you up dude,” said Schaub.
“He’s tiny but he’s a black belt in everything when it comes to hand-to-hand combat. I know on the ground you think you’ll pick him up and slam him down into the concrete, I don’t know what you’re thinking how this will go.”
“I’m going to crush his head on the floor,” says Martyn.
No,” replied Schaub.

The Unlikely Combatants of 2023: From Tech Tycoons to Fitness Gurus
In 2023, it appears that unconventional fight match-ups are becoming the new normal. Current talks hint at a possible showdown between Facebook’s Mark Zuckerberg and SpaceX’s Elon Musk. Zuckerberg, who has been seen training alongside UFC champions like Israel Adesanya and Alexander Volkanovski, seems serious about stepping into the octagon, according to UFC President Dana White. The tech mogul’s counterpart, Musk, also appears to be ‘dead serious’ about the potential face-off.
A Clash of Titans: Bodybuilding Influencer Versus Former UFC Champion
Earlier this year, an unexpected match-up was discussed between renowned bodybuilding influencer Big Boy and former UFC Light Heavyweight Champion Tito Ortiz. Big Boy didn’t mince words, stating Ortiz was beyond his prime and intended to ‘retire his ass’ once they face off in the squared circle.
An Unbalanced Bout? Martyn’s Size Advantage Over ‘Mighty Mouse’
Should a fight between Bradley Martyn and ‘Mighty Mouse’ Johnson materialize, it would present a stark contrast in physique. Standing tall at 6’3″ and weighing in at 265 pounds, Martyn holds a significant size advantage over Johnson, who has typically competed at a weight of 125-135 pounds and a height of 5’3″.
