UFC is really knocking it out of the park with content like this. How could you not root for this guy?
Marcus expresses himself very well. Credit to his mother for getting out of the D, and to himself for creating a better life for his family.
D town lo town mo town
I ain't even gonna say anything about him looking 65..lol he's a sweetheart of a guy, he's super good, i'm glad he made it to the big show. I did pick him to win for the few fights that he's had, he hasn't let me down yet. I would like to see him drop the Maniac and lean into Marvelous Marcus McGhee, Maniac doesn't suit him.
underrated fighter
Amazing story of being dealt some bad cards in life and completely turning it all around! Love hearing stories like this!
He was already one of my newest favorites after watching his fights at UFC, now that I know some of his history, and how he behaves inside and outside the octagon, even more.
Caught his fight last weekend against Bolanos. What a beast with an inspiring story. I'll be keeping an eye on his future fights! Good luck brother.
i remember watching his ufc debut and was amazed not only by his skill but the respect he showed to his opponent after
love it when they show love to the underrated fighters.
I will always cheer for this dude.
What an amazing person. ❤from Carlsbad New Mexico
I'm loving his attitude, he seems like a well-grounded individual. I will root for him for his positive outlook.
Wish him all the best ...
Dude's a Beast Fighter !
Pulling for Marcus! Absolutely inspiring story! Cant imagine having such a childhood. Major respect, good luck tomorrow!!
He really seems like a good person, nice attitude and skills, wish him the best!
Fool, I thought that was Katt Williams squaring up in the thumbnail 😂 mb
I’m so happy that they have covered his story this quickly.
What people don’t understand about a life of crime and gangs, is that you can’t say everything that has happened to you. And you will never be able to tell outsiders the worst. Especially the ones your close to. Because it’s so many times that if you mention who you are around, or what you have done, you understand that all the real enemies that will take your life are watching your success that will only live to end your life. And it’s many sins that you will never be able to share, for the safety of your freedom and existence. When I listen to Marcus there is a lot of crazier trials that he has had to stomach, that might never escape the mind.
On top of that, even if you were able to share the truth, no one will believe you. I’m so fortunate to witness someone like him be able to miraculously make it out and deliver his message to as many people as he is able to.
Big ❤ Marcus . Love seeing people overcome adversity and leave them in the rear view 🙏🏼💯
100%
This is one of the fewest fighters I follow on Instagram. I genuinely LOVE this dude and he is an amazing parent and God fearing man. He is grateful for life and it makes it too easy to love him. We shall be here when you become champion bro. Keep up.
his fighting style is so bad ass its like what you think youd look like fighting in a movie or something lol
This guy is an awesome Fighter!
this is why the UFC exists and is #1, the realest of the realest will show up, respect to mcghee!
Winning in life.
A good dude.
I am a fan of this guy! lets go
Easily 1 if the better series The UFC makes.
Marcus will become one of the UFC goats, just you wait!
Marcus is a beast. He's got a good CZcams channel too.
This man truly has the *Heart* of a *Fighter!!!* He also has the *Face* for a *Fighter* as *well!!*
I like this guy! I hope he does well I. The UFC.
High level body mind and spirit....best of all worlds champ
Hope this guy makes it
Does seem like a powerhouse for the division.
Good story too. All the best to you brother 👊🏾
Aye he skates too? rooting for you McGhee
I spotted Joe Riggs! Diesel!

Lets go Marcus!
well put together piece about marcus the maniak mchgee
Marcus seems like such a good dude man. I truly want the best for him. 🤘🏻
*The most dangerous man in the bantamweight division.*
Before the UFC I could barely afford rent,
I still can barely afford rent, but now I fight in the UFC
Marcus vs Gaston is gonna be a war and absolutely has potential to be a foty contender, this is a huge fight for prelims, they are about to both become a lot more well known
I'm a new fan!
Love this.
Sweet
Best fighting
future champ!
Dope! Blessings Black man!
Im pretty sure his last fight (or 2 fights ago) he took a 3 day notice fight and won by ko
Edit: he won by sub but dropped the guy really bad before
Wasn't that his UFC debut too
I've never heard this guys name until today. Have I?
💪💪
Let's go maniac
Woow ❤❤
They talk like that guy bolanos is a god in the Bay Area. So glad this dude sat all those clowns down.
Guy looks 53 years old
He's been through the seven layers of hair.
@@vintageludwig😂😂😂😂😂😂
How old is this guy 50?
W Marcus
Hopefully some of these people get given stock in the company so they win everytime the ufc wins.
❤
10 years ago he looked 10 years older than now
Detroit rock city
Dawg
I wish I could get out of fast food in join the ufc
He is real UFC fighter 🤣🤣
👍👍👍
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💎💎💎💎💎💎
This dude would look like 10x better with a shaved head
MCGEEO
Marcus vs Jalin in a game of skate 🛹
Love that this guy gives credit to Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior after his last win. Jesus is Lord
absolute bawss
He’s losing by TKO
his father came back in to his life when he started to making money? alright.
Megan the GOAT
ufc def underpaid him
🛹🥊🏆🙏
Wannanow
Lol this dude looks like the black uriah fabber.
If a pitbull dog turned into a human it would look just like Marcus.
Why not pay the fighters a livable contract instead of profiting off this dudes trauma. Why doesn’t the UFC talk about how good Marcus is defensively, or how well placed his punches are? It’s because UFC sells KOs and STORIES, they don’t sell SKILLSET or WINNING (Demetrius Johnson).
Chill dude. Who are you to give a fuck about what comes out anyones mouth?
Megan Olivi and Laura Sanko should be replaced with real women.
Everyone who looks like this usually has a tough life
Come on bro I don't like the victim mentality black dude shit either but this guy is actually a role model that more ppl in his community should look up too and maybe they would be on a better path
@@user-fo9gt5ri8f ahh you think Im talking about race. I’m not. I actually mean people who literally look like this, i.e., Michael Beasley
I really like Marcus, but I think he's going to lose against Bolanos. I believe Bolanos has far more experience. If Marcus attempts to take him to the ground then Marcus may have a chance of winning
I hate hearing a father call his son “bro”. He doesn’t need a brother or a friend. Sons need fathers
He's made 100k in performance bonuses alone since his ufc debut and is creating a legacy and amassing wealth for him and his family. i dont think your opinions will matter much on his path to greatness. I'm sure the only example you'd set for your son is how to be a complacent little baby.
Simply a term of endearment. Nothing more
I call my son bro all the time when we’re just hanging out… reading at an 8th grade level in 3rd grade.. wins sporting competitions , loves school. Always support him in what he loves. Come at me .
stop being soft
Just a hater finding something to hate on
