Actor Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson bought UFC fighter Themba Gorimbo of Zimbabwe a new house after Gorimbo's first professional fight in May.
Johnson saw the story on Twitter in June and vowed to help. This week, he made good on that promise.
"You inspire me to work hard, thank you," Gorimbo said with tears in his eyes."I will become a champion, trust me. Believe me." "But you didn’t. You took care of your people, and that just says exactly who you are and that’s why I flew all the way in, man, just to look you in the eyes, brother, and tell you I got your back."
