"I don't usually plan on being alive the day after my fight" to end the interview like this it shows how much these warriors actually sacrifice for the fans and for themselves. This was deep. EDIT: how about now ? was it just for promoting the fight ? jesus that fight was legendary.

@locrianphyrigian3779 Ай бұрын

This is why I love this sport. That's one of the coldest most incredible lines I've ever heard, and it wasn't scripted. This is a real guy talking about his real life. It's amazing. Only huge problem for me is they aren't getting paid enough for the revenue they generate and what they sacrifice. Hopefully that gets better.

@certifiedredditgenius Ай бұрын

@@locrianphyrigian3779 very well made point. It actually sickens me to imagine a guy like Justin who brings it every time and will almost certainly end up with CTE not making nearly as much money as he should be because Dana White wants to blow 500k on a blackjack hand

Man, Justin vs Max is just one of those fights that regardless of what the outcome is it's going to be bittersweet. Max is a legend, and the chance Justin takes another legends soul would forever cement him as the most brutal soulstealer in MMA. But seeing Justin lose his title aspirations after the wars he's given us would be crushing. But Max having the opportunity to become a 2 division champ would be an amazing storyline. Good luck to both warriors.

I used say it's gonna be a sad day when these fighters like Silva, Jones, Chuck, Rampage, Hendo, etc decide to hang em up... Each fighter I just mentioned headlined massive PPV cards over the span of many years, brought something very special and unique to the table, and also held a belt at one point. That said, none of those guys or anyone else I can think of has consistently brought the type of fire, excitement, skilled violence, durability, courage, controlled chaos (sometimes)🤣 BUT at the same time bringing humility and genuine courtesy from the start of his UFC career, maintained all of that with no asterisk on his name, and never changed. This guy is a fuckin American icon in my book!
