Martyn Ford labeled the "World's Scariest Man," has stated that he would love to fight Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson because they would "make a fortune." Now, bodybuilding giant Ford is best known for his fearsome nickname, and he lives up to it, measuring six feet eight inches tall and weighing just under 23 stone.
'World's Scariest Man' Wants To Fight Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson
The pair will fight on April 2 at London's O2 Arena, but despite the men's exhausting training regimens, Ford appears to already have his sights set on his next opponent.
And this opponent is none other than Dwayne Johnson, the legendary wrestler.
Johnson, who is now one of Hollywood's most popular actors, has a long and illustrious career in professional wrestling and is widely regarded as one of the best wrestlers of all time.
Ford stated why he'd love to fight The Rock in the ring in an interview with Muscle and Health about his upcoming fight and how he's been preparing.
“I’d love to challenge The Rock to a fight,” he said.
“We’d make a fortune. It would be a phenomenal fight because he’s a great athlete. He’s very mobile, strong, and comes from a wrestling background.”
There's no denying that a fight between Ford and Johnson would be thrilling to watch.
And Ford has made it obvious that he is unafraid of his opponents, claiming that the Iranian Hulk's rigorous training programs, which included punching concrete walls and ripping apart melons, haven't worried him in the least.
"The Hulk’s training footage is kind of demoralizing [sic] in the sense that I don’t want to watch it and think I’m just wasting my time because I could beat him up now,” he explained.
“He’s in for an absolute world of s**t. He is. I would not want to be him.”
"Throwing people around, pretending that you’re bloody John Cena from Iran, is kind of embarrassing.”
"I don’t like it when people disrespect the sport of boxing.”
"If you’re going to do it, fine, but make sure you’re training for it.”
"Make sure you’re eating right. Make sure you’re doing everything to be the best athlete you can be and respect the sport."
He added: "If you’re just trying to make a quick couple of quid, you’ve got to question the ethics of it."
