  • UFC Did MMA Get Too Comfortable With Violence - News Rundown w/ Ted Czech | Josh Hokit - Nam Phan - Till vs Romero + MORE

    MMA HAS NEVER BEEN JUST ABOUT FIGHTING.

    Ted Czech Has Seen MMA Media Change From the Inside

    The Golden Age of MMA Journalism Is Gone

    Ted Czech on What MMA Media Has Become

    and how I’m Betting My Life on MMA Media


    What happens when you put two people who have lived through the chaos of MMA media in the same room and just let the conversation go?

    I sat down with Ted Czech — an icon, a legend, and one of the true pioneers of MMA media — for a completely unfiltered conversation about the state of the fight game, the dangers fighters face, the evolution of MMA journalism, and what it really means to chase a dream when the dream might actually cost you everything.

    We go DEEP.

    This one went completely off the rails.

    I sat down with MMA media pioneer Ted Czech to talk about the beautiful, brutal, completely insane world of mixed martial arts — and somehow we ended up talking about CTE, fighters going down, MMA rules, Josh Hokit, Nam Phan, Raoni Barcelos, Prichard Colón, the future of journalism, and just how dangerous this sport really is.

    Then things got personal.

    We talked about my recent run-in with death, getting another shot at life, and what it means to finally chase the dream of making MMA media my full-time life.

    It’s part fight journalism, part existential crisis, part barroom conversation with two lunatics who love this sport way too much.

    MMA. Media. Violence. Death. Journalism. Dreams.🧠 THE CTE CRISIS & NAM PHAN — what happens to fighters after the cameras stop rolling? What responsibility does MMA have toward the people who sacrifice their brains and bodies for the sport?

  • THE SON OF “NO MAS”: Roberto Duran Jr. & The Fight For His Father’s Approval

    WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOUR FATHER IS A LEGEND… AND YOU’RE STILL JUST HIS SON?

    This was such an interesting

    interview for me to do because 1) I’m

    a huge fan of his fathers

    story

    2) iv interviewed

    fighter’s children

    before but

    this

    was

    sad!

    Roberto Duran Jr. grew up in the shadow of one of the most famous fighters to ever walk into a boxing ring.

    His father was Roberto “Hands of Stone” Duran.

    The man behind No Más.

    A legend.

    A myth.

    A name that became bigger than the man himself.

    But behind that name was a son carrying a question that never seemed to have an answer:

    “Will my father ever be proud of me?”

    This interview starts like a boxing conversation.

    Then the gloves come off.

    What follows is a strange, heartbreaking ride through disappointment, hope, anger, love, and the desperate search for happiness from the one person whose approval might never come.

    You can hear the hope in his voice.

    You can feel the heartbreak underneath it.

    And just when you think you know where this story is going…

    Duran Jr. flips the entire script.

    Because sometimes the hardest fight isn’t against another man.

    Sometimes it’s against the voice in your head telling you that you’ll never be enough.

    And in the final moments of this conversation, Roberto Duran Jr. leaves us with one last thought.

    One piece of advice.

    One brutal little piece of wisdom that turns a man chasing happiness…

    into a man fighting for glory.

    This interview happened years ago.

    But listen closely.

    Some stories don’t get old.

    They wait for you to catch up.
