"Okay, my boys, I said, 'Boys, I have the KSI on. If there's one question that you guys can ask him, what would it be?' They said, 'Ask him to take his uh bandana off.' Can you believe that? Them little motherf**kers said that. They said that. I said, You know what I told them? I was like, 'You little motherf**kers, I didn't raise you like that,'" Demetrious Johnson said.

The former long-reigning UFC flyweight champion shared his thoughts about the crossover boxing star with Michael Wonsover, the podcast producer.

"The biggest thing that I take away from KSI is that the man is an entrepreneur. Right? I mean, he started in a YouTube space and then he was able to jump into boxing with Misfits. And I think one of the things that me and Michael can put some respect on his name for is that he understands what level he is at," Johnson said [1:18:16].

The 38-year-old shared that KSI, unlike Jake Paul, doesn't have any desire to become a boxing world champion. Johnson also expressed admiration for KSI's vision to build new crossover boxing stars.
