Demetrious Johnson AI Fight Video With a Friend: Who Falls

The Demetrious Johnson AI fight video is a two-person joke, so the first decision is who stars in it. This page is for anyone making it with a friend, a sibling, a partner or a team-mate: how to choose who wins and who falls, how to get a proper yes, how to pair the photos and how to keep it good-natured. It is staged slapstick in a 14-second vertical clip, and nobody is hurt. The clip is styled after a Demetrious Johnson fight, but your cast is you and a friend, and nothing about it is official or connected to the UFC.

Casting two real people

01

Ask first, and let them see it

Use a photo of someone only if they have agreed to appear in a fight video. Say what it is, a 14-second AI-made slapstick clip in which their face goes on the person who gets kneed against a wall, and offer to show them the result before it is posted. If they say no, or hesitate, pick someone else.

02

Who takes the fall

The Winner is standing at the end, and the Loser slides down the wall, sits dazed and lies flat on the concrete. The friend who volunteers for the Loser slot gets the bigger comic moment: the dazed sit and the flat finish take about four of the 14 seconds. If nobody volunteers, generate it twice with the roles swapped so each person wins once. Check the quote for each run.

03

Pick adults who look different

Both photos must show adults. Avoid children, strangers, celebrities and public figures. Beyond that, pairing matters for quality: two friends with very similar hair or clothes are more likely to swap faces in the clinch. Choose two photos with different hair colour or different clothing colour, both clear and face forward.

04

Keep it a joke, not a dig

Do not use the clip to mock someone who has not been asked, to settle a grudge or to embarrass a colleague, an ex or a classmate. A fake knockout of a real person can land badly even when it is clearly marked as AI-made. If the Loser would not laugh at it in front of their friends, do not post it.

05

Hair, hats and glasses for your friends

Each friend keeps their own hair, glasses and facial hair from their photo. The reference fighters' bald head, hat, glasses and goatee are not kept. A bald friend stays bald, and a hat appears only if the photo shows one. Ask both to send a photo without a hat, in even light, with the hair fully visible.

06

Before you share it

Watch the whole clip with the Loser, especially the knee against the wall and the final sprawl. Label the post as AI-made, do not suggest it was a real fight or a real injury, and delete it if either friend asks. Choose 720p or 1080p, which cost the same, and check the quote in the tool before generating.

  1. 01

    Choose who wins and who falls

    Upload one clear head-and-shoulders photo for the Winner and one for the Loser, face forward, hair fully visible and no hat. Pick two people who look clearly different from each other. Optionally add a wide location photo in Background to change the setting, or leave it empty to keep the concrete patio with the pool and the stucco wall.

  2. 02

    Choose quality and review credits

    Pick 720p or 1080p. Both qualities cost the same, and the quote covers the whole 14-second video.

  3. 03

    Check the wall and the floor

    Watch that both faces and outfits stay the same through the clinch, the knee against the wall and the sprawl on the concrete, and that nobody gets extra limbs. Download the 9:16 MP4 with the music.

01

Two fighters, two photos

One photo casts the winner and one casts the loser. Each photo supplies a face, hair and outfit; the patio, the pool behind it and the stucco wall stay. An optional Background photo tries to move the whole fight to a new place.

02

The whole fight in 14 seconds

Slaps and a raised knee, a wide stand-off, a clinch, a cut to the house wall, the knee, the slide down and the sprawl on the concrete, with the reference clip's timing and camera.

03

Staged, not graphic

It is a slapstick fight: no blood, no weapons and no injuries. The loser sits dazed against the wall, then lies flat on the ground for the last two seconds.

04

The music comes back

Your video keeps the clip's own music, put back at the end of the run. The clip has no speech and the song is not identified here, so swap the audio if a platform flags it.

Questions & answers

What is the Backyard Fight Knockdown AI trend?

It is a 14-second vertical fight clip on a backyard patio: two men in brown jackets trade slaps and a raised-knee kick, clinch, and one drives a knee into the other against a stucco house wall. The other slides down, sits dazed and ends flat on his back on the concrete. Oakgen's template puts the two people from your photos in their places and keeps the patio, the wall, the camera and the timing.

Is this a Demetrious Johnson fight?

The reference clip is styled after a fight involving Demetrious Johnson, the former UFC flyweight champion. The opponent is not identified here, and the clip is a staged take, not footage or a replay of a real bout. Oakgen is not affiliated with or endorsed by the UFC, any promotion or any fighter, uses no fighter's face or voice, and asks you not to upload photos of fighters or other public figures. It is sold under the plain name Backyard Fight Knockdown.

Do I need a brown jacket or a hat in my photo?

No. The reference fighters' jackets, hat, glasses, badge and hair are replaced. Each fighter wears the outfit and hair from their own photo, and a hat or glasses appear only if that photo shows them. A bald person stays bald.

Who wins and who falls?

The Winner, who starts on the left, lands the knees and is standing at the end. The Loser, who starts on the right, ends the clip lying on the ground. Put whoever should take the fall in the Loser slot.

Is there music or speech in the video?

There is a music bed and no speech. Your video keeps the clip's own soundtrack, put back at the end of the run. The song is not identified on this page, so if Instagram, TikTok or YouTube mutes or flags the audio, replace it with licensed music in your editor.

Is it violent?

It is a staged slapstick fight with slaps, a knee and a fall, and no blood, weapons or injuries. Keep it a joke: ask both people before you use their photo, and do not post it in a way that suggests a real fight.

Can I use a pet photo?

This template is built for two people. The fight uses hands, knees and a clinch, so animal photos are not what it is cast for and results are not checked.

Can I change the background?

Yes, optionally. Add a location photo in the Background slot and the template tries to rebuild the whole place from it, with its own floor, walls and sky, while keeping both fighters, the strikes, the camera moves and the timing. A wide, evenly lit photo with a visible floor works best, and it should give a wall or fence the loser can be pinned against and a flat floor to fall on. Results can vary, so check the floor, the walls and both fighters' lighting before you post. Leave it empty to keep the concrete patio with the pool and the stucco wall. A background photo adds no cost.

Is the preview made with Oakgen?

No. The preview is the reference clip the template follows, not a video made from your photos. Your video has your two people in the fighters' places.

How long is the video and which quality can I choose?

14 seconds in 9:16 vertical, one fight from the first slaps to the sprawl on the concrete, in 720p or 1080p.

How much does it cost?

743 credits per 720p video. The quote covers the complete video at either quality. Check it before generating.
