Maybe this isn't the setting to say it, but to hear BCs son issues and what he has probably been through as a father I just have the most massive respect for him and for the fact that he always has a cheerful attitude through at least the parts he lets us see. Hope if life tests me like that I can respond in the same way.
what happened to his son?
@@burlhorse61 I think it was a medical issue
@@burlhorse61 he has cerebral palsy
@@burlhorse61 I believe (in-part) because they were twins, there were complications (possibly associated with prematurity and/or cerebral palsy), but BC mentions moments early in their lives where one (or both) required extensive medical care for potentially life-threatening medical conditions--not sure, just my recollection from following MK and being able to relate as a father and pediatrician.
I love hearing him talk so lovingly about his kids, and you can tell (from BC talking about it in the past) the heavy issues in the beginning changed BC as a parent for the better.
Me too. I had seen BC mention his son’s ailment before but I kinda forgot. BC is just a great dude and I’m sure he’s even a better father.
As for the interview, MVP was awesome and he has a new fan.
2% black 98% heart killed me
Haha gold
If you're on the fence about watching this one - it's up there with one of the best RSD episodes to date. MVP is just a stellar dude and it's rare he does these super long-form interviews - dude's legit.
There's a few great ones. Chiesa, Demetrius Johnson, Sean Brady, Sanko, Arnold Allen, Anthony Smith.. Lots of good episodes it's hard to compare.
So many fighters speak (or don't speak) so blindly about their losses. In the first 10 mins from the way MVP spoke about the Perry fight even cracking jokes shows he has the self awareness that got him to this stage and hopefully keeps him moving towards the belt. Great stuff from BC and Luke as always!
Love this from MK and MVP. First time I've heard MVP talk in an extended interview - even more of a fan than I previously was.
After hearing this interview, I can admit that I had the wrong opinion on MVP. He seems like a really down to earth guy. New fan over here.
Wish more people got behind this guy. Super exciting fighter and down to earth outside the cage. He's a showman through and through
Great RSD! MVP is very intelligent and an interesting guy. Came across as very genuine and likable here.
I came here to say this. They have been building up other RSD interviews like Allen, but there is something refreshing about a candid intelligent fighter speaking freely.
Awesome! MVP has been a good guy for the sport
Really changed my mind about MVP after listening to this interview and will be rooting for him from now on!
M.V.P seems like a very reasonable and intelligent guy. This was a great interview
MVP is intelligent and insightful. Loved this interview.
I forgot about this. Might as well watch this again.
Mike Perry needs an RSD
Mike Perry is the opposite of Dillon Danis. Super real.
Top tier interview, again. This format is tremendous and I hope it continues for a long ass time. RSD has made me a fan (or more of a fan) of every person that’s sat on the couch.
this guy has been getting so much hate.....mainly cause of the so-called tomato cans he has fought, i truly believe it isn't his choice and he showed and proved he has real heart after he got knocked out by douglas lima, cause he asked for the rematch, he got it and he won, you got to respect that, at least , i did
Still? I remember see it much more back in the day... not so much anymore
Don’t worry about other peoples opinion
He chose to fight in the b-league.
“So called”? No, those are legit tomato cans. That five times a year claim he made, was against guys who had a combined record of 18-32 (32 losses)
@@YourGFsFavoriteBF take on a tomato can then Kenny hahahahah
Great interview.
Seeing MVP be so candid and mature, when talking about his journey, only makes me more of a fan.
Tons of new found respect for MVP. Tells it how it really went. Loved it
Amazing interview. Nice work.
This dude is articulate AF. Great speaker.
Good stuff BC! Im dying over here, that joke you cracked about the Paul Daley fight being like an adult film with only dialogue.
These type of interviews create fans for these fighters. Thanks DONKS
BC has a beautiful heart, thank you for you infectious energy and hope things get easier❤️
Damn, it's almost like the UFC isn't the NFL
I wish he would go the ufc. The talent is high with this man
love these interviews.
MVP is the guy. Too bad we never get him v Wonderboy.
There’s still time, maybe in some retirement boxing match
I love this format how you guys interview the fighters this is such a great interview. There's no way you guys don't have rocky lined up🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Great interview. Really enjoyed it. MVP is the man!
Interesting convos. Fun dynamic as always, LT & BC.
this is such a great conversation to listen to
Great talk. Thanks.
This is a great one
fantastic episode!!
Such a genuine humble fight. And shout out to the MK crew. RSD’s are without a doubt the gem of this channel
These are pure gold
This was one of the best RSDs. He is intelligent, witty and seemingly very open and candid. Eloquent speaker.
He is soooo much more down to earth than you’d expect!
MVP describing "attaching strings" to people sounds like a Stand ability.
The studio looks great!!!
My new favorite RSD
Imagine a mma fight between mvp and wonderboy.
Damn.
Fascinating discussion! You guys have a great chemistry. Would love to hear you guys chop it up again
excellent video
Great interview - MVP understands all aspects of combat sports to a very impressive degree. Dude gets it.
MVP is super likable when not being overly cocky in the cage. This interview is just more proof.
Probably got too caught up in the drama between him and Daily back in the day, hence paid little attention to him outside the cage.
Seems like a cool dude. Nice of him to give a nod to his Lau Gar roots. Lau Gar was where it was at in the early eighties with standouts like:
- Alfie "The Animal" Lewis (Tony Bellews old coach)
- Kevin "The Jedi" Brewerton
Gotta like his film choices. You cant go wrong with the classics. For me
1. The 36th Chamber of Shaolin
2. Fatal Claws, Deadly Kicks
Wish him every success.
There have only been a couple of guests on Room Service Diaries that I was excited about but I've watched every episode and truly enjoy them all. These two donks balance each other out, create great rapport with the guests and making magic with their mma menage et tois.
1:06:35 Legendary Seagal story 😆
R.I.P Judo Gene
*BC and LT says anything*
MVP: “100%!!”
Mk all day nearly everyday!
Hell Yah!
"First minute of the fight, I'm attaching strings to the opponent"... Utterly Fascinating stuff, to be quite candid
I feel like you guys should get paid for promotional services rendered for RSD, because these interviews do a MUCH better job at making me care about the fighters you feature than the main promotional stuff does
JRE fight talks are alright, but Joe's way too big at this point unfortunately to get convos with fighters that are this casual and authentic feeling
💪💪
I’m a huge MVP hater and this honestly makes me want to like him. Well done MK
🔥
Perfect Sandwich - the middle was MVP of Arnold and Paul
MVP a cool ass dude. Nice job boys
Get mike perry on the couch
Luke would get too triggered
For the the Americans watching
3 hours of driving is considered a long drive in the uk 😂
would be fun to compare nfl ratings to ufc and bellator ratings
Hey 👋
38:43 only dialogue
Luke wasn’t sure how to pronounce Adesanya’s name? How old is this vid?
I only came here for skits and bits 🐈⬛
I played against Epsom eagles 🦅
Is it a perspective thing or is Luke Thomas head 8x the size of mvps
Michael “Can Crusher” Page
Loooog
Damnit. The old grandma basement set is truly gone :( it was its own character, fitting for this show.. oooooh well.. I still love you MK.
They did this in the uk
@@alex10291 omg thank you. The couch lives!!
@@Subfightr gotta love it
If your passion doesn’t pay well enough then maybe it’s time to get a real job and reevaluate your priorities
No more bellator fighter interviews for the love of god !!!!!!
How dare they talk shit on Sensei :(
This guy is the ultimate can crusher.
This guys career has been so utterly dislikeable it's weird that he is so normal in this setting.
Want to hear something funny though? When the nfl started they did. When the mlb started they did. Baseball players used to make more money in the off season than they did in the league. Just something to think about. You don't get to ride on their backs. It's a new league, build it, earn it.
The grind neva stops!!
Can’t compare mma to football lol…only comparison would be boxing
@@AdamWatt00 Alright? And boxes made no money and fought 100 times a year when boxing was a new sport. The sport is 30 years old and you don't get to ride off the backs of other sports. Also MVP compared NFL to the mma bozo, go look at the title of the video, not me.
Just to go against the current here, fighters have to stop comparing themselves to football players or other pro sports. NFL players play 17 games in 18 weeks. MLB players play 162 games in 6 months. Fighters figbt maybe twice a year. You can talk about the dangers of fighters training and all that but its 2023, we've known fight organizations treat fighters poorly for a long time now and they still sign the contracts and make it life long goal to join. They gotta stop complaining in interviews and actually do something about it.
Nobody put a gun to your head to be an average MMA fighter and make average money in the B league Bellator Michael.
Just be an excellent fighter in the UFC like GSP, Jones, McGregor, Khabib, Adesanya etc and you don't need to have another job in your life.
Your Welcome.

His only loss was in Bellator. Bellator Brett Johns was 5-2 in the UFC.Bellator has fighters that have beaten ufc champs.

Bellator Sergio Pettis was ranked number 2 in the ufc and beat Brandon Moreno, Bellator's Deanna Bennett beat ufc champ Julliana Pena, Bellators Cris Cyborg beat every female 145lbs she fought in the ufc except Amanda nunes, who got beat by Bellator's Cat Zingano, Bellator's Corey Anderson beat former ufc champ Glover texaira and former ufc champ Yan blachovich(they are 1-1, need a trilogy). Bellator Kyoji Horraguchi was 7-1 in the ufc and only lost to One championships Demetrius Johnson. Most of the fighters that came to Bellator from the ufc were still in their prime. Put some respect on Bellator. Bellator has a good number of Elite fighters like the UFC, ufc just has more. Bellator's Magomed Magomedov beat Petr Yan 1-1, need a trilogy, Bellator's Austin Vanderford beat every opponent on Dana white contender series and came to Bellator, Eddie Alvarez came from Bellator and won the ufc title, Phil Davis was 9-2 in the UFC and came to Bellator still in his prime, Cris Cyborg beat every female opponent in the UFC except Amanda nunes definitely deserves a rematch, Kevin Holland came from Bellator and won 5 straight in the UFC in just 1 year, Justin Gaetche came from a smaller organization called WSOF and has achieved great success and won the UFC interim title, Alexander Volkov came from Bellator and is top 5 in the UFC, Bellator's Soren Bak beat UFC'S paddie pimblet, Jorge Masvidal came from Bellator, Bellator hasthe better Lima brother Doughlas, UFC has Dhiego Lima, UFC signed CM Punk Lol, UFC doesn't have the best Flyweight of all times Demetrius Johnson One Championship has him, Bellator's Vadim Nemkov could definitely be light heavyweight champ in the ufc, Raffion Stots could easily be top 3 in the UFC bantamweight division, Bellator's amosov 27-0 could easily be top 3 in the UFC welterweight division and would give Usman serious competition, Gegard Mousasi wrecked most his opponents in the UFC and is regarded as top 5 middleweight in all of mma and came to Bellator still in his prime, Bellator's Aj McKee and Patricio Pitbull would easily be top 3 in the UFC and could be champ too, Sergio Pettis did great in the UFC came to the UFC when he was 18 fighting at 125, now dude is officially in his prime and his body has filled out plus the move to 135 is best for him, he is fighting at a higher level like he is Pettis 2.0(imagine if he fought in his prime in the UFC), Benson Henderson did great in the UFC overall but struggled in Bellator. Bellator's Kyoji was 7-1 in the UFC. Danny Sabatello can be top 3 in the ufc.Jeremy Kennedy was 3-1 in the UFC before coming to Bellator still in his prime his only loss in the UFCwas volkanowski, Bellators Yaroslov Amosov 27-0 could be top 3 or champ in the ufc, Bellators Saul Rodgers won TUF and beat UFC Ryan hall easily, Anatoly Tokov can definitely be top 5 in the UFC, Bellators Johnny Eblem can be top 5 in the UFC, Juan Archuleta can definitely be top 7 in the UFC, Michael Paige can definitely be top 10 in the UFC especially if he tightens up his defense, Bellator's Julliana Velasquez can be top 2 in the UFC and Ilima lei McFarlane can be top 5 in the UFC women's flyweight division, Corey Anderson was top 4 in the UFC and came to Bellator still in his prime. Bellator's Sergio Pettis was a kid not even in his prime and he beat Brandon Moreno. Sergio Pettis was ranked number 2 in the ufc before coming to Bellator. Bellators Raymond Daniel's knocked out Tony Ferguson in the gym. Chris Curtis was losing fights in PFL, he tightens up in a lesser known organization comes to ufc and starches his first 2 highly respected opponents thus far. He is currently 3-1 in the ufc. Also in the early parts of some of the prelims there are a couple of fighters that are not signed that are basically auditioning for a contract and chance for Bellator to build them. As the Prelims roll on the higher tier fighters get to fight as they move to the main card the elite fighters fights all through. Yes there are elite fighters outside the UFC bubble. Real mma fans would appreciate the fact that there are more mma organizations to enjoy fights from.Sabatello is 12-1 beast that has punished ufc fighters, and recently destroyed former ufc fighter named Brett johns in a fight card. Bellator has a very deep bantamweight roster including the guy that beat petr Yan named Magomed Magomedov.Jack Hermansson came from Bellator. He was getting beat in Bellator, went to a smaller organization got better and made it to the ufc. Chidi Njokauni came from Bellator and he starched a quality UFC opponent in 28 seconds. He also beat UFC'S Alan Choban and Max Griffin in another promotion, He is currently 3-0 in the ufc.
I love when the guys do interviews with known fighters who don't fight for the UFC. Really enjoyed this but how could you not ask him to breakdown a fight between him and Wonderboy?
Very good podcast
This dude has to have some of the biggest mittens I've ever seen. Especially in proportion to the rest of his body.
