If you want to deep dive into the iceberg of ufc and mma then this is the explainer video for you. Linked below is the original reddit post, like I said this one could do with some improvement and us as a collective can change that, so go there and lets give the original poster some love whilst giving him a chance to improve it. Thanks for watching this long video, it's not my usual content and so if you are intrested in MMA and UFC fighters psychology breakdowns then head to my channel where you will find a growing number of videos on this topic.
I'm back. Last Attempt at posting this, if not say good bye to it for good! I have tried my absolute best to learnt he guidelines inside out for age restriction and I feel that this is more than appopriate for monetisation and to not be age restricted! Fingers crossed!
Thank you so much to @Mattessomart (Over on Insta) for lending his beautiful artwork of Joe Rogan at the bottom of the Iceberg.
Music as always by the genius over at White Bat Audio, on youtube, praise him for his hard work giving us such amazing music to work with!
Love Always,
The Academic

It’s the sheer exposure of, while a very specific part of life, but life itself. People from all different backgrounds, taking part in all these situations and circumstances, and getting to view it all. There really is nothing like it.

His editing and content is exponentially improving since, that dude does insane amounts of research and puts in so much effort into his work, plus he is fucking hilarious. Highly, highly recommend everyone to peep his work

I’m a huge Khabib fan but the Conor gunman theory I genuinely believe. and if Conor was assassinated in that arena had Khabib lost, I don’t think Khabib would’ve been charged in any way. I don’t think Khabib was behind the gunman in the arena, more so someone who’s involved in his team, Ali, back home in Dagestan, they have connections and this fight game is life and death to them. I seriously think had the gunman got passed security and if Conor lost, he would’ve been assassinated in the ring in front of everyone, possibly right before they put his belt on.

Their on 2 different levels man Conor has no tank Nd has one of the wirst wrestling’s in ufc . I don’t think you’ve been to a ufc gym how hard it is to sneak in a gun especially that fight secriuty was an all time high .

As people have pointed about Pride didn't allow any elbows to the head. The differences between the Unified Rules of MMA and Pride's rules are probably cultural. We know elbows to the head can cause huge cuts and Japanese fans are more squemish about blood than Americans, Brazilians, Brits, etc. Soccer kicks to the head aren't any more dangerous than other kicks to the head but for whatever reason outside of Japan they're seen as being too brutal.

Good video. I Didn't know about the Conan Curse, Jack Slack, or the Fake Doctor story. That one was wild. I cant really think of many _wildly_ deep iceberg stories that people don't know about. There was a UFC fighter who had his music switched by someone, and I randomly remember watching a video about 10 years ago of some fighters in England absolutely coked/pilled off their faces doing some live vlog thing outside the event but I cant remember who was there... possibly Rampage Jackson.
