I used to think I could just go ab my life being fake and people would leave me alone. Until I realized people are going to mess with u regardless if you speak your mind or not so you might as well let them know what’s going on in there before they try and take control of you and your thoughts. We have to defend ourselves intelligently or be enslaved and shackled by our fear.
Facts bruh, that literally the story of my life, now I box and am just more bold as a man in general. Fear will keep you from your promise land in life I can attest
A wise man once said "be a monster...& then learn how to control that monster. Those who have swords but keep them sheathed until they are needed, will inherit the world. "
@Rizza Luke 22:36 Jesus told his disciples “If you don’t have a sword, sell your cloak and buy one.” Even Jesus knows the meek can’t inherit anything if they can’t defend themselves
Young men need to know this. They need to be taught this as boys. Teachers need to know this. The shadow is real. You can't run from it. You embrace it. You bring it in. You make it part of your soul. And then you become the complete man. Wish I had known more about this before I went into combat.
Same. I fucking hate training. I hate little annoying injuries. Like my wrist hurting or my toes or groin. But at the same time there’s nothing like it on this earth. My life was so boring until I started kickboxing.
Khabib was a pretty good example of that balance. Jon and Conor def more on the scale of their dark self but not balanced most of the time. Mike Tyson these days is pretty balanced but he gets ashamed of his past. I get that, sometimes I hate to think of mine but it's there and that other side is real.
The reason why khabib was balanced is bcuz of his very strict upbringing where any unhinged psychotic behavior was punished collectively by parents and society and islam The more a society turns away from its religious and strict social roots the more sick and mentally unstable it becomes The more families break apart
The mental aspect of the game is real. Especially when you lack the experience in the fight game. Once I first started boxing with more experienced boxers in my first 20-40 bouts it was extremely mental since I lacked the necessary skill sets to win unscathed. Only had natural talent of power punching so other than that it was all mental toughness. Which in reality is the worst possible thing to depend on in a boxing match.
Mental toughness is not a bad thing to depend on. Rocky marciano was the same as you with insane power punching ability and he was a straight slugger depending on his mental fortitude and will power
@@julissawelchezyou need mental toughness, but when you get to the top everyone is tough. Therefore you need the full package physical talents, skills and heart.
@@julissawelchez the problem was not having enough defense in my first 20 to 40 amateur bouts. I remember some fights having to absorb too much body punishment. And particularly one fight where I was fighting someone with 60 bouts while I had almost 30 bouts. He was able to land his left hook easily on me. I had to suffer too much punishment.

Anyone else learn how to fight as an adult because they were bullied in school? I feel like that is a very common trend with fighters, I would say most other fighters I know learned how to fight because at one point they may have felt weak, powerless, or afraid.
Me, I'm lifting weights to get strong and I am strong, but I'm realizing more and more than strength is not enough, therfore, I found a Boxing gym to sign up to and I'll be starting soon now as an adult
The dark side must be embraced if you want to go all the way. If you want to go to a place where people do not understand you and they consider you to be crazy at what you do, you have made it. You need to be obsessed to the points where you do not care what people think about you, you have to be reckless to a certain extent. You have to be so ruthless that you are willing to do whatever it takes to win. Embrace the shadow if you want to go all the way.
Controlled aggression is important, not uncontrolled. Violence is sometimes the answer, not always. People are cowardly to do bad things not because they don't want to.
In Mcgregor vs Khabib the way khabib said 'I will smash your boy' was such a good line. To come in front of a crowd who hated him and do exactly what he said is just so badass and the way he said it not knowing too much english was so cool, just straight to the point and true.
Jack Johnson was similar to this when fighting Jim jefferies. He knew the majority of the crowd were against him, and wanted to see Johnson put in his place as they saw it. Some might have wanted to kill him if he won, indeed black people who celebrated in various cities across the US were assaulted and lynched . But he out boxed Jefferies completely, stopping him in the 15th round , at a time when fights went on for twice that sometimes, as he said "Hardly a blow had been struck when I knew I was Jeff's master".
I’ve seen plenty of things in my life and I’m a young person, I’ve seen true discipline, and what some call a swing of luck, in martial arts I always watched closely, and no matter what type of training somebody did, it was one thing that separated one from others, being vicious, there is something in being vicious that changes you, you don’t gain that, some are just brought with that, I used to think it was a gift; but it’s a curse, now that I do good, but viciousness has a unique a lonely essence
I feel what are you saying. I experimented this way of being during a really dark period of my Life. And i noticed that the amount of rage and viciousness that i brought in my workouts wasn't the same After i "healed" and accepted my dark being. We all Have a dark side, the real Power Is knowing when using It or let It devour ourself
@@gattopazzo.2347 how did you handle the guilt of it? I had some trauma last year. I’ve changed a lot and love who I’ve become fighting through it, I was very soft/undisciplined/naive before it. But most of the drive comes from this kinda dark mental place I go to. But I have a lot of guilt in it, all the performance that comes with the aggression I get guilty over the selfish colder person I become when I embrace that. It’s a polar opposite to who I was before I got hurt.
@@drx3373 let It flow. Until you'll understand more about the situation and yourself. Everything happens for a reason and now Is your Moment for finding that reason, even if seems withount any sense there Is One and if you are Willing to dig in the deeps you'll find It. I never had guilt i had only rage. I suppose that you Have to understand why this guilt. One day talking with a coach friend of mine about the Power i had taking all the Energy from that dark place, She told me: "you Have to learn how to work in both ways( talking about where the Energy came from (depression, hate, despair or patience, mindfulness,...)).at First i didn't understood but then when my head was quite i realized a lot of things. Yes you Have a lot of Power using all those negative emotion but you lack of control. If instead you are calm and focused you Will win because the dark Path Its not sostenible in the time but the light Path can help you get more things. With the dark Path you Will only reach the auto-destruction.
It feels great to know that I've got a tribe afterall lol. I spent by teenage and childhood years getting in trouble, fighting and suspended with hell lots of mental health issues. My dad being a wonderful guide held my back. As of now, I've got a stacked schedule of studies and workout and when I skip a day of it, It feels like I'm back to the teenage years. It's a weird transfer that people of my type need to do to stay cool and normal.
Fighting is a tough game. I'm going into my first fight in a couple of months and I realized that there's a lot of self-hypnosis that goes on with fighters. You have to convince yourself that you're a predator, a killer. That nobody can stop you. Otherwise you're gonna cower in fear once you get in the ring. I wonder what kind of psychological impact that can have long-term.
That’s why mike Tyson was so good cus domoto would talk to him for hours when he was a young boy about how he was the greatest fighter who ever lived and nobody could touch him, and it worked
@@moniqueonealYinYangBoss77 cus died. it affected tyson the same way how both your parents would die. tyson's participation in boxing was his life the same way you live your ordinary life. he's right about alot of things. everyone in their own right is a fighter, just not you.
No one would really want to fight people if they were living a perfectly happy life from the get go. I look at fighters like these people who were forced into this tragic life where they had no other options, but maybe they make it out alive with something to show for it. The world is not a perfect place but there is something exciting about competition because it reveals the truth.
No one has perfect happy life. If you think so you are so wrong. I had miserable life and i thought it was only me until i realized that also so called happy people have been went through such a tragic things and their lifes are also hard
Something that always kinda was hard for me to understand is how are you going to touch gloves every round then go fuck each other up hard. For me whenever I give a high five or anything it makes my competitive mentality go away a bit. So it’s pretty amazing how they still killers.
Hockey/karate/fitnessplus “special” schools for the emotionally disturbed/traumatized. What did I see. A lot. What did I learn. Still gaining knowledge from it to this day(31). Neighborhood misfits. County, mental hospital, broken neck etc(god damn lmao). All in all. Made me a warrior in a garden. Alot I could I say. I’m still meditating on it daily. This knowledge, this mentality is not given. It is earned through trial by fire. Most recent lesson learned, shared with the wrong people given into the wrong hands produces unnecessary casualties and loss of what was already good character. Count you’re blessings and stay you. Grateful for the fray I am.
Mighty Mouse is the first example to come to mind for me. I would also say Wonderboy but he's on record saying that he took certain strikes out of his arsenal because they're too dangerous to hit people with
40 seconds in I’m liking what I’m hearing, sometimes I get worried the more mental healing I do the more likely I am to loose my edge as a fighter. I couldn’t be more wrong, I’ve integrated it.
@@ButtersLStotch I don't know I guess it just depends on the person. I like being level headed, and looking at it as my duty to fulfil. I don't hate the guy.
Great video compilation, it makes me want to go out and be productive. It’s productive anger that’s good for the soul, your spirit.. the animal that’s in each and every single one of us… you have to embrace this in you😤
All people contain a degree of the "dark triad", the difference between acting in evil & good is to harness the beast for a productive purpose. If you're robbing & killing the innocent & vulnerable then you've lost it & need to be put down. If you're fighting in the ring, to protect or to produce then you're the good beast.
1:56 my mom always told me I was too strong for my age and I would easily hurt someone and to be very careful, she told me not to hit anyone one ever because of what I might do to them, ever since then I’ve felt stifled,like she took my sword before I was ever able to wield it. Idk might be too late but imma become a monster
Similar thing happened to me , my father hit me because i did something bad as a kid. I hit him back , he then slapped the soul out of me. Ever since i feel like i lost the warrior inside of me, and was abused by many people throughout my life. Now im trying to get that warrior energy back through boxing.
@@kriegerdeslichtsx Man ion even remember when my rambunctiousness was sent to bed😂, but yeah been tentative not because im scared of people but of what comes afterwards always stifled me, and just being pushed into violence was never my thing, glad y'all found the beast again
"I think I am a bad guy that's trying to be good". Pretty good words to live by. When you truly know yourself, no matter who you are, you'll realize your real nature is always at odds with so called virtue - it doesn't come naturally at all.
The darkness is apart of me. I bottle it up. I train every day. When I fight, I adopt the darkness. I embrace the darkness. I become the darknesses. It’s a cruel world and you need a level of darkness inside to succeed in life
Been thinking about such concepts and loved Jung for a while. I opened the video immediately when i saw it, and when I heard the name Carl Jung severals seconds after, I knew this was going to be a good video. And it was
I have massive interest in getting into combat sports however I can't see myself having this mentality. So I respect the fighters who developed that mentality to get into the arena and dominate.
The video is great! Touching! Just one thing to "complain" about is the placement of the ad. Really took me out of the environment, if it was on the beginning or the end, it would be perfect. Keep going like this, great work!
Incorporating with your darkside gives you peace power and beautifull feeling. I was from running my darkside before and it made me frustrated, fearfull, anxious and lost but when I started to accept the darkness when I started to be ready to do the evil when I started to be the predator and not the prey I felt that feeling where you feel you can survive 100 years in war. I really enjoyed it.
The whooping I caught by the train tracks in 2010 was most productive in not only teaching me that Dunning Keruger applies to physical fighting training, not only that in a fight is a fight one you might even win can be punishing enough you would rather stand out, not just that you can't read power levels the integration of training into 2nd nature is a really big deal needing to think slows anyone down as if looks could not already be deceiving I additionally learned the difference blood lust can make artificial animosity doesn't go far and when you are taking that whooping it bleeds out quicker for me the desire to stay the course of my mouth check was the only reason I could go further than the warrior spirit. It was ultimately what endeared me to the actual badman who would end up being a great friend. I did learn that the closest thing I had to fighting ability was a granite jaw and I was blessed with an all day motor. When the traditional boxer agrees to take a kick boxing challenge you should know it is because he is THAT GOOD. I think I only managed to have a real victory once in the now I think I can fight phase of my life and it was a pure single style fight. I probably racked up 20 concussions before I could deny it no longer I am SAWFT even when I was anything but soft I was still sawft.
Beautiful man. I wish I could keep watching, keeping connecting to both the light and the dark of my/our natures. This is why I'm fascinated by the fight game. It lays bare the shadow elements of our nature for the world to see.
I signed my first mma contract 23 years ago I searched and searched for a fight in a tough man contest but u had to be with in 75 miles of a fight then king of the cage hit me me up. I fought my first mma fight with my cousin and my buddy in my corner and just let my nuts hang. I’m from a small town and wrestled my whole life. That was the beauty of it to me just let the nuts hang !!! It’s just a fighter mentality! Ur born with it. Some have it some don’t. I’m 43 now I boxed I faught I wrestled…. Ufc is the greatest sport on earth respect to all men who set foot on a mat in a ring in a cage god bless u!!!!
I love the Allan watts and Jordan Peterson edits. It mixes in beautifully man. I’m fighting for the 4th time on March 11th. Videos like this help me get in the zone
This is the human condition, primal chaos is so much closer than most of us know. The title could very well be “The Dark Mentally of Man”. We are animals but most of us don’t know the terrifying things we’re capable of.
I am at the point of my life where if i can't fight.. i can't have anything. I tried to have a peaceful life. I got rich i got a amazing girl i wanted to marry... But i lost it all.. because i couldn't fight.. compete with the best of the best. I lost it all because the beast in me couldn't settle.. i ran away from home.. got myself in a dangerous positions with cops.. fighting alot of people.. yet its not enough.. id there's anyone capable of getting me out. Just give me a chance to train (boxing/ mma) and fight. I will be your biggest discovery.
Update: i am all good now. Started a new life in another country. No more trouble with the law. Im getting married soon to the same girl (she waited for me). Im not rich by any means but im working hard on making it again. I am still fighting but different battles rn. Life is pretty good and i hope it only gets better
for some reason this video made me tear up because im surrounded by loneliness in a totally stranger country far from home and the only thing that im afraid of is myself.

Rousimar Palhares is a great subject for these types of videos! He's a great example of dark mentality in the ring. Would break people's legs and crank harder when they tapped, only letting go when the ref yanks him off.
@@viralvideos5116 exactly he is darkness consumed by it rather than in control like these fighters. Makes him weaker & dangerous like a school shooter. If someone tapped to a choke he would still kill them that's an L in life
What about all the great fighters that didn't fight with a lot of anger and weren't violent and/or confrontational outside the ring. Joe Louis is maybe the greatest heavyweight of all time and he was always completely stoic before, during and after the fight.
I currently just turned 18. I want to start fighting. I used to get bullied a lot because I had acne. People treat me like I’m some monster. It sucks. But I learned that I should embrace it. I want to be that monster. I’m sick being of being laughed at and humiliated. I don’t wanna fear anymore I want to be feared.
You’ll change more in the next 5 years than you expect. Your life is still in its formative stages. Just keep working out and you’ll realize the acne goes away, the people teasing you go away, everything changes in the next 5 years.
I used to think I could just go ab my life being fake and people would leave me alone. Until I realized people are going to mess with u regardless if you speak your mind or not so you might as well let them know what’s going on in there before they try and take control of you and your thoughts. We have to defend ourselves intelligently or be enslaved and shackled by our fear.

No one would really want to fight people if they were living a perfectly happy life from the get go. I look at fighters like these people who were forced into this tragic life where they had no other options, but maybe they make it out alive with something to show for it. The world is not a perfect place but there is something exciting about competition because it reveals the truth.
No one has perfect happy life. If you think so you are so wrong. I had miserable life and i thought it was only me until i realized that also so called happy people have been went through such a tragic things and their lifes are also hard
No some people live happy lives and still like fighting because they like the sport. You don’t have to have a tragic life to be a fighter
@@gabrielgabriel5177he didn't mean "happy" in that context. He was simply using happy as synonym for "comfortable".
Bossman all i have to say is that you did such a tremendous job bossman keep up the amazing work & I’m glad i found your channel
This is one of the best compilations I’ve seen on CZcams. I’m playing it on loop for a while till everything settles in
Something that always kinda was hard for me to understand is how are you going to touch gloves every round then go fuck each other up hard. For me whenever I give a high five or anything it makes my competitive mentality go away a bit. So it’s pretty amazing how they still killers.
It’s a mutual agreement that what’s to come isn’t going to be pretty.
@@99mattdogg But it was done when both fighters signed the contract.
@@MrGlostuber Symbolically of course.

Hockey/karate/fitnessplus “special” schools for the emotionally disturbed/traumatized. What did I see. A lot. What did I learn. Still gaining knowledge from it to this day(31). Neighborhood misfits. County, mental hospital, broken neck etc(god damn lmao). All in all. Made me a warrior in a garden. Alot I could I say. I’m still meditating on it daily. This knowledge, this mentality is not given. It is earned through trial by fire. Most recent lesson learned, shared with the wrong people given into the wrong hands produces unnecessary casualties and loss of what was already good character. Count you’re blessings and stay you. Grateful for the fray I am.
you do not need a special dark mentality for combat sports... you can be a totally positive jolly outgoing person and still kill.
Mighty Mouse is the first example to come to mind for me.
I would also say Wonderboy but he's on record saying that he took certain strikes out of his arsenal because they're too dangerous to hit people with
@@KM-iv9xy GSP is also a pretty nice person. And khabib. This video is just very edgy lol
This video is made by some loser
Dark side fighters are more successful is like the joker always beating the Batman
40 seconds in I’m liking what I’m hearing, sometimes I get worried the more mental healing I do the more likely I am to loose my edge as a fighter. I couldn’t be more wrong, I’ve integrated it.
I mean Brandon Moreno is one of the best in the world, and he’s a pretty chill guy from what we see.
Anger is a gift. Use it. Temper it
I’m talking about malice, forget about anger, I’m talking about cold blooded looking at your opponent like prey
@@ButtersLStotch I don't know I guess it just depends on the person. I like being level headed, and looking at it as my duty to fulfil. I don't hate the guy.
@@rico14 agreed. That’s what I’m saying. A tiger doesn’t hate the animal it kills, it’s just tryna get fed.
I love these philosophical videos on MMA and combat sports
Great video compilation, it makes me want to go out and be productive. It’s productive anger that’s good for the soul, your spirit.. the animal that’s in each and every single one of us… you have to embrace this in you😤
"It is better to be a warrior in a garden, than a gardener in a war.” ― Miyamoto Musashi
All people contain a degree of the "dark triad", the difference between acting in evil & good is to harness the beast for a productive purpose. If you're robbing & killing the innocent & vulnerable then you've lost it & need to be put down. If you're fighting in the ring, to protect or to produce then you're the good beast.
1:56 my mom always told me I was too strong for my age and I would easily hurt someone and to be very careful, she told me not to hit anyone one ever because of what I might do to them, ever since then I’ve felt stifled,like she took my sword before I was ever able to wield it. Idk might be too late but imma become a monster
Bruh same, but i don't want to be too aggresive
Similar thing happened to me , my father hit me because i did something bad as a kid. I hit him back , he then slapped the soul out of me. Ever since i feel like i lost the warrior inside of me, and was abused by many people throughout my life. Now im trying to get that warrior energy back through boxing.
@@kriegerdeslichtsx Man ion even remember when my rambunctiousness was sent to bed😂, but yeah been tentative not because im scared of people but of what comes afterwards always stifled me, and just being pushed into violence was never my thing, glad y'all found the beast again
"I think I am a bad guy that's trying to be good". Pretty good words to live by. When you truly know yourself, no matter who you are, you'll realize your real nature is always at odds with so called virtue - it doesn't come naturally at all.
Not really living honestly is actually really easy.

Tyson saying “people are laughing at me” got me hard…😢
The darkness is apart of me. I bottle it up. I train every day. When I fight, I adopt the darkness. I embrace the darkness. I become the darknesses. It’s a cruel world and you need a level of darkness inside to succeed in life
What a video, amazingly edited. Well done sir!
Been thinking about such concepts and loved Jung for a while. I opened the video immediately when i saw it, and when I heard the name Carl Jung severals seconds after, I knew this was going to be a good video. And it was
Your Mind has to Be honed in order to be able to Compete. I believe that the mindset is the one thing that makes a fighter a fighter
The mindset a people may have to utilize in order to survive harsh conditions/environments they're placed in through no fault of their own.
Top notch 👊🏻
Thank you for this. Excellent.
Every time I hear Mikes “I’m the best ever” speech post fight this shit is so energy fueling I swear
I have massive interest in getting into combat sports however I can't see myself having this mentality. So I respect the fighters who developed that mentality to get into the arena and dominate.
Stephen Thompson is not the bad boy Crazy violent Alpha male and still a hell of a fighter.
@@korpzmarcelfranca6825 i guess the creator of the video wasn't look hard enough
This was well put together!

This is an insane video! well edited and great concept
Thank you for this video 🥊🥊
I See.

I ENJOY!
The video is great! Touching! Just one thing to "complain" about is the placement of the ad. Really took me out of the environment, if it was on the beginning or the end, it would be perfect. Keep going like this, great work!
Subscribed and bell notification turned on content like this I feel like I’m evolving in life
This is a phenomenal video. 🙏🏽🥋
whatever it takes to be a champion, one day the world will know my name
Incorporating with your darkside gives you peace power and beautifull feeling. I was from running my darkside before and it made me frustrated, fearfull, anxious and lost but when I started to accept the darkness when I started to be ready to do the evil when I started to be the predator and not the prey I felt that feeling where you feel you can survive 100 years in war. I really enjoyed it.
Great video as always!
Need a 2 hour long version of this to workout to.
The whooping I caught by the train tracks in 2010 was most productive in not only teaching me that Dunning Keruger applies to physical fighting training, not only that in a fight is a fight one you might even win can be punishing enough you would rather stand out, not just that you can't read power levels the integration of training into 2nd nature is a really big deal needing to think slows anyone down as if looks could not already be deceiving I additionally learned the difference blood lust can make artificial animosity doesn't go far and when you are taking that whooping it bleeds out quicker for me the desire to stay the course of my mouth check was the only reason I could go further than the warrior spirit. It was ultimately what endeared me to the actual badman who would end up being a great friend. I did learn that the closest thing I had to fighting ability was a granite jaw and I was blessed with an all day motor. When the traditional boxer agrees to take a kick boxing challenge you should know it is because he is THAT GOOD. I think I only managed to have a real victory once in the now I think I can fight phase of my life and it was a pure single style fight. I probably racked up 20 concussions before I could deny it no longer I am SAWFT even when I was anything but soft I was still sawft.

Alan Watts speech always hit👌🏼
@mike Ciavarro I think you did an amazing job making this
amazing video man!
Great video , Carl Jungs red book describes the shadow in detail.it’s a good read if you want to integrate your dark side
Yes it does
unleash your dark side
Being capable from doing damage and abstain from doing it. That s power par excellence
Beautiful man. I wish I could keep watching, keeping connecting to both the light and the dark of my/our natures. This is why I'm fascinated by the fight game. It lays bare the shadow elements of our nature for the world to see.
I signed my first mma contract 23 years ago I searched and searched for a fight in a tough man contest but u had to be with in 75 miles of a fight then king of the cage hit me me up. I fought my first mma fight with my cousin and my buddy in my corner and just let my nuts hang. I’m from a small town and wrestled my whole life. That was the beauty of it to me just let the nuts hang !!! It’s just a fighter mentality! Ur born with it. Some have it some don’t. I’m 43 now I boxed I faught I wrestled…. Ufc is the greatest sport on earth respect to all men who set foot on a mat in a ring in a cage god bless u!!!!
Holy F*ck! what is this?!

I thought this was gonna be a commentary video but instead I got a sick as edit. Did not expect to see the Jung reference and whatnot.
This is the human condition, primal chaos is so much closer than most of us know. The title could very well be “The Dark Mentally of Man”. We are animals but most of us don’t know the terrifying things we’re capable of.
The Diaz brothers said it best, "Its kill or be killed"
This is a well made video. Added to my favorites
I fw this intro hard! 🔥
I am at the point of my life where if i can't fight.. i can't have anything. I tried to have a peaceful life. I got rich i got a amazing girl i wanted to marry... But i lost it all.. because i couldn't fight.. compete with the best of the best. I lost it all because the beast in me couldn't settle.. i ran away from home.. got myself in a dangerous positions with cops.. fighting alot of people.. yet its not enough.. id there's anyone capable of getting me out. Just give me a chance to train (boxing/ mma) and fight. I will be your biggest discovery.
Hope it’s all ok
How you got that all
@@youtubeaccountserio2633 yoo thank you so much
Update: i am all good now. Started a new life in another country. No more trouble with the law. Im getting married soon to the same girl (she waited for me). Im not rich by any means but im working hard on making it again. I am still fighting but different battles rn. Life is pretty good and i hope it only gets better

I don't think it's required. But it definitely helps people who don't have anything else to push them to greatness
for some reason this video made me tear up because im surrounded by loneliness in a totally stranger country far from home and the only thing that im afraid of is myself.

I needed this video, it made me realize I am not insane
The ad in the middle ha crazy.
that was sick asf though. I love carl jung

@@MikeCiavarrothanks. As much as I use White Bat Audio, I completely missed this one.
This video, a lot of people truly won’t ever understand this side of human nature.
Rousimar Palhares is a great subject for these types of videos! He's a great example of dark mentality in the ring. Would break people's legs and crank harder when they tapped, only letting go when the ref yanks him off.
I've heard that he's actually a very gentle person, but he's mentally slow and isn't intentionally hurting people.
Either way, he's still hurting people and something needs to be done.
That’s not a good thing
@@viralvideos5116 exactly he is darkness consumed by it rather than in control like these fighters. Makes him weaker & dangerous like a school shooter. If someone tapped to a choke he would still kill them that's an L in life
@@viralvideos5116 yes, sick mentality and extremely poor sportsmanship. Definitely sick and twisted.
3:05 - This is how people perceive me. Drives them nuts. Glad to know I'm not the only one.
You got a subscribe from me for that vid. That was awesome!
What about all the great fighters that didn't fight with a lot of anger and weren't violent and/or confrontational outside the ring. Joe Louis is maybe the greatest heavyweight of all time and he was always completely stoic before, during and after the fight.
Exactly. Not all fighters are the dark type
Gets zoned and hyped up🤨 till 3:45😆
Nice video, well made. Very skillful.
"This was not recommended u search for it."
Keep going mate u will be great one day👑👑
I currently just turned 18. I want to start fighting. I used to get bullied a lot because I had acne. People treat me like I’m some monster. It sucks. But I learned that I should embrace it. I want to be that monster. I’m sick being of being laughed at and humiliated. I don’t wanna fear anymore I want to be feared.
You’ll change more in the next 5 years than you expect. Your life is still in its formative stages. Just keep working out and you’ll realize the acne goes away, the people teasing you go away, everything changes in the next 5 years.
Cody is right it's not gonna matter in the end lol. Be good and true to yourself and help yourself out. Then help others.
