Shout to his wife without her Glover wouldn’t be here, and she was there for him from the beginning.
shes the original WAG
The love of a good women is a superpower
A true inspiration. Thank you for representing Brazil so well, Glover.
Man, I instantly took notice of him when he first started in the UFC... What a LEGEND!!
No need for a comma before Glover unless you’re asking a question. You aren’t speaking directly to him. Grammarly is cheap
@@TrollNovanah you’re wrong.
@@TrollNovaor as I should say, “nah, you’re wrong.”
Brasil acima de tudo
Made me tear up when he won the title, and it made me tear up seeing it again just now. Impossible not to root for, Glover.
Man I share this feeling with you! My wife and I have not missed an UFC event in over 12 years! When Glover won the title I literally cried in shear happiness for Glover and his team! Although this is a great short documentary that gives a glimpse into reality for a fighter from outside the states, we will never know what he and many others actually went through to get where they are today! Keep up the good work making these short documentary’s! They are Gold for us MMA Junkies like myself and others!
Me too homie. 🫂

Legendary and inspirational fighter.
"Never give up on your dreams, no matter what people say dont listen to them. Believe in yourself, keep going forward".....
Glover Teixeira
A truly amazing fighter, inspiring and great person to showcase what determination and perseverance can do!
No doubt!
@@UFCFightPass oh nice! Mighty kind to receive some acknowledgement!
Somewhere in the South America there is someone taking the exact route Glover took....
@@Casteeyo... doesn't diminish what Glover did and had to go through, nor the people going through challenges like his were.
@jabron.destoroyah 16:11 They made dana taller than chuck 😂
Glover had already passed his prime by the time he made it to the UFC and still is a Hall of famer top 20 all time. I believe he would have had a legendary championship run if he came 4-5 years earlier.
Nah JBJ was already there. 2 Glovers wasn't going to beat JBJ and whatever he was on. Still super happy he made it to the top even if it was short lived. Glover is an awesome human.
Glover couldve taken the title off of shogun. Shows how amazing JBJ is. Glover grabbed the title once Bones left as a old man.
Goosebumps watching his Brazilian homecoming. Great fighter, no doubt a great man.
One of the greatest to ever do it. We love you Glover
What a phenomenal warrior, and persevering champion. His journey to make it to the USA, and then to have to leave, and then having an amazing wife who did all she could to bring him back, and did. One of the best champions ever, Master Texeira.
Looking at the timeline, Glover was probably set to debut in the UFC the night Chuck lost the title to Rampage
Glove truly inspires. This show for him was awesome. Thank you UFC for putting this together.
Glad you enjoyed it
A true legend in and out of the cage, his going to be remembered as just as a solid as coach one day the way Poatan is going
Everytime Glover talks about his life story I cry Bro... I'm proud him as a Brazilian.
I love Glover Teixeira...he's a total stud and a hero. MMA baby, it's the best.
You just cant hate on this guy he is the most wholesome dude in the UFC
the animations are outstanding 😂
Thank you for doing this story on Glover.
Wow this brought tears to my eyes
I love how humble Glover is. He's beyond inspiring
Glover is an absolute stud. I appreciated his career from afar and am incredibly happy he got that belt at 42. There's not a more deserving champion. Such a Humble man, but an absolute killer in the cage!!!
I'm not one to cry over sports, but I bawled when Glover got the belt. Couldn't have happened to a better guy.
Thank you Glovers uncle and Ingrid, Glovers' wife. Crazy the butterfly effect that it had
Tears of joy for this man. Brazilian pride. Parabéns Glover!!!
This is so hear warming and beautiful. Glover is such an inspiration.
Glover is the definition of what every man should strive to be! An actual true to life role model!
Thank you UFC fight pass for finally uploading the FIGHTLORE episodes
So humble.and a never give up attitude.such a inspiration.crazy
this series is the bomb i love it...ive watched three episodes of it..all realy good ..props to all who made this possible for me to watch thank you
True warrior!!! Hero!!!
I got to meet Glover, briefly, several years ago. Even in that short time, it was obvious that he was a genuine and sincere person. Hes the only fighter that I have been a fan of after meeting them instead of before, and I cried happy tears when he got the gold.
Also, when I met him he was THICC. I dont have a huge reach but I could barely get my arm around his shoulders.
Beautiful. Thank you to those who made this. I only wish the video had the views it deserved.
Love these animated videos and stories! Keep it up ufc and shout out to the artists on this!
So glad that Glover was able to become a champion. Been watching him forever. He's always the guy you want to root for.
How can you not respect this man.. what a man.. I was so so happy for him when he won the title! You can never take that away from him.. mad respect Glover.. 🙏🏻
Glover comes across as an amazing person, with a never say die mentality. I would love to bump into Glover someday and tell him how much his career and finally winning the belt at 42 meant to me and my boys who watched all his UFC fights. It's such an inspirational story, that seeing this cartoon had me tearing up for Glover again.
Keep these coming they are great
Man what an absolute legend. Never rooted for another fighter more!
Amazing, love him. What he has going on in Danbury is amazing
Couldn't imagine a better story. Or a better couple to have lived it❤
Legend! Hard work! Respect!
This man always makes me cry
I love Glover.. Such a humble great guy
When Strickland retires he’s gonna have the wildest fight lore video ever
One of my favorite fight stories
What an incredible story! ❤ I liked Glover before but now... Wow!
Legend and inspiration
FREAKING LEGEND !
Never knew his story. So inspiring. What an amazingly positive person with the heart of a lion.
Glad to see into glover's life .very great to see what a man glover is
Much respect

Wow....his story makes me want to do better things with my life. Truly inspiring.
How do u not love this guy
The ufc is so inspirational
Chael has told some wonderful stories about training with Glover, he is a legend and all around champion
What a story. Love Glover.
And the fact he took in Alex periera under his wing, is just goes to show you how nice he is, sharing his wisdom of fighting and takedowns and defending them, will even cement Glovers name in future especially if Alex keeps winning belts
Legend!
Amazing man.
WOW wat a great story, loved this one
This got me in the feels. I'm not crying though... YOU'RE crying!
What a story what a legend
NEVER GIVE UP
“The ageless” GOES HARD AF!
The walking motivation fr
This is great stuff.
Admirable Legend
He made his American dream through sheer hard work and drive very inspirational I'm glad to have him as a fellow American citizen.
He literally skipped the line around people going through the citizenship process
One of the best life stories in UFC history. I’m excited to see the movie one day to see if it does the story justice.
This was awesome
Awsome story. U gotta love glover
This it will be awesome
another brazilian living the american dream, oss idolo voce merece
It's between Glover and Francis for immigrant UFC champion with the most wild and craziest journey into a new life in pursuit of happiness, success, and beyond all else, never stop fighting no matter the judge, jury, or executioner. Glover, you are an inspiration to millions and we fuckin' love you bro.
👋🥋 🤜
🦵 🦶
Glover for sure has a rider💯❤️
Lovly Glover ❤❤❤
Will rain as GOAT forever! This is the epitome of The American Dream during these times! Blessed to have witnessed this journey first hand!
Glover an inspiration to all.
Very inspiring
Glover is an inspiration because I am making a comeback in MMA at age 43.
glover basically running nto chuck by accident is such a great turn of luck, back then there was probably not a better person to know if you want to get into MMA, dude got a direct connection to Dana.^^
What a great guy.
Glover is the Man
the animations really compliment the grit ...❤😂
Can't believe he gave Jiraiya a shout-out! Legend!
Sidenote: when he was younger, he looked like Junior Dos Santos
So awesome
Nice one Champ ! You're a nice Champ.
Damn! what a story 💯
Damn, that was awesome
Awesome
I new he was gonna be a UFC champion.legend.
Love u Glover 2024
My man first take down was a beast, buffalo ! Savage
It all makes sense now😌 how he made his dreams come true.
That's a inspirational story... Remember he lost his first title shot to Jon Jones and had fight all the way back up for a another title shot!! Damn... that's perseverance!
For an old man to lose a title in 2014 to the best ever and come back and win the title after 5 straight wins and win in 2021 is something special. Tough sob.
My God what a beautiful man
respect
Chuck looks like he was straight tweaking on that shake and bake dope.
shut up
Nobody whatsoever was unhappy when glover finally got that strap
That was good!!
If Glover could have been in the ufc in his best prime years nobody would have been able to touch him. He honestly was a different animal !!!
