After Providing Financial Aid to UFC Fighter With Just $7 Left in the Bank, Dwayne Johnson Leaves MMA Legend Impressed With His Off-Court Skills

Dwayne Johnson is a man of many talents. Everything he does garners eyeballs. Be it the movies or wrestling or business, it’s safe to bet that he is an all-rounder. On a regular day, you can catch Johnson in the Iron Paradise, but what does he do in his leisure time? 

Johnson went fishing this weekend. Naturally, his fishing prowess astounded both his admirers and followers. It drew so much attention that MMA legend Antonio ‘Bigfoot’ Silva couldn’t resist but praise Johnson’s skillful display.

Dwayne Johnson aims to be successful at everything he does. Everywhere he goes, he wants to be the hardest worker in the room. And now, his knack for fishing substantiates the veracity of that statement. If fishing was his only job, Johnson could feed a whole tribe if this were the Stone Age. 

Taking to Instagram, Johnson displayed how skillfully he maneuvered the rod to reel the fish in. He wrote, “I waited for her to stalk that baitfish at the mouth of the lake driving them back into the inlet. One cast about 3 feet in front of where I THINK she’s going – let it drop for a few seconds, a few cranks like a jerk bait, slow roll it, patience….BOOM”

After the fish took the bait, Johnson knew this was a big one. The Red Notice actor then used his beastly strength to reel the fish in. He also stepped into the water to safely unhook the fish. Reacting to Johnson’s expertise, MMA legend Antonio Silva commented, “Awesome”. 

Nevertheless, Dwayne Johnson’s weekend showed that he is as gifted as he is a hard worker. Aside from being a consummate entertainer, Johnson is a genuine virtuoso.

No matter how successful he is today, Johnson’s Seven Bucks moment was a pivotal point in his life that helped shape him into the megastar he is today. Responding to Gorimbo’s tweet, Johnson promised to help him out financially. In addition, he also assured Gorimbo that they would be in touch.
