[@MillarMusicTV]

This podcast really made me see Jared in another light. Made me wanna be better just listening to him. Dude is humble as it comes.

[@xonious9031]

I met him... he is a nice person.. he is like that in his life

[@rookie90210]

He is humble and down to earth. A real warrior too. Its impossible to dislike this guy.

[@johnnycage2746]

Yeah, he's cool unlike Tyrone Victim Woodley

[@Ivan2Jura]

Except if you actually watch his boring ass fights...

[@UpSettingP32]

@@Ivan2Jurahow is he a boring fighter? he’s technical as hell. You probably only watched his fight vs Adesanya

[@Obiodum_]

​@@johnnycage2746I wonder why you choose him as your comparison 🙄

[@momcilojabucilo9320]

Blaze he chose him cause woodley is biggest cry baby in ufc

[@bottledfart]

As is any path in life, it’s about the journey not the destination. There is more admiration in trying and “failing” than never trying at all.

[@thedragonofechigo7878]

But that's not the case, society cares about who wins or loses, not the journey to get to either result.

[@pigeye1986]

Amen

[@LOOISDYLAN]

@@thedragonofechigo7878 caring about what society thinks of you is sooooo 2018 bro

[@oldskoolpaul89]

It's your individual successes for you and yourself.

[@NickBraley]

I love hearing such wisdom from @bottledfart. Haha

[@zombievikinggaming4258]

Its crazy how he has the best cardio and overall athleticsm when closer to 40 than in his actual prime. Those performance enhancing crystals really are powerful. My favourite natty fighter.

[@cmo5807]

Could be he used to weight train more than do cardio and now he switched it as he is older or a number of things including PED. But hey you call it how you see it even though you do not see it.

[@trevorthomas825]

Never realized how well spoken Jared was until this interview

[@Razear]

He sounds like a very level-headed, down to Earth guy. A lot of guys that fought Izzy and clearly lost like Marvin would go on verbal tirades trying to claim that they were robbed, but Jared seems like an honest, self-critical fighter.

[@anonymousanonymous7770]

Izzy is special

[@groovyxhriss8047]

Man I love everything he said, as someone going thru their own situations and difficulties, I try to tell myself everything he’s saying and be thankful, hearing him say it out loud makes me know I’ll be alright and like one comment I read said, it’s not about the destination, but about the journey. Have a blessed day everyone

[@CheeseSpliffs]

To you as well, brother 💪 we all got this

[@yeyo6521]

you will be alright brother & what the future holds for you will be waay better than anything you imagined. Keep going brother

Jared is a wise one.

you're right. precisely accurate

What a great Man. His ascension will be amazing, and never ending.

[@SolidMikeP]

Did you understand what he said?

[@jgzbaby777]

😂😂😂

[@jameswalters4358]

This individual was an individual who is a seeker. He sees few obstacles that he can’t learn from and improve himself and it is regardless of his progression that he is inspiration to others to peruse something that will improve himself. People need to realize that not everything they hear is a stopping point it is an obstacle that you are inspired To overcome. Kick ass and move on. That’s our true intent and reason for existing. Bravo!

[@amiracleone2803]

You and Jared got a lot in common. You both sound like you have been hit in the head to much. At least you don't do a gross snorting sound every couple seconds.

[@juanburgos8176]

@@amiracleone2803 This is why you will never amount to a man like Jared's greatness. Instead of trying to make people who have achieved far more than you in life lesser, work on making yourself more. You probably won't, since the impression I get from you is you are quite sad and pathetic, but one can hope.

[@vandergruff]

Jared Cannonier talks the talk, and walks the walk.

[@BelovedChatter]

I can’t imagine getting to the top 15 in the UFC and viewing that as a failure. That’s a tremendous career just there

[@isaacalzate8262]

Top 5 he only lost to isreal and Robert who are champion and Robert is #2 he beat anderson,kelvin,strickland,marvin,Anderson,,,, Brunson he's a very good fighter

[@Dockerde]

Your one of the greatest! I’m effectuated with your diverse points of views and respect for all forms of life! Keep it going homie!

[@SuperAlejandro310]

It takes so much discipline and consistency to be the best and stay on top, it’s almost impossible to do so. Especially when it comes to being a fighter. You can be going through things outside of the ring that can distract you and affect your next fight and be done with it.

[@Readel2.0]

Definitely

[@Readel2.0]

I would it could change your mindset, Something besides fighting.

[@startorfinish]

Jared’s willpower allowed him to transform his whole body

[@omar18ization]

That "equip this avatar with as many perks" analogy was so good.

[@mylesteller]

Jared is probably one of my favorite personalities in the UFC. He may not be wild and entertaining but you can tell he is a great guy , very relatable to the everyday person, and I just found out he served this nation in the Army. That explains so much about him 💯

[@KechiWatta]

Bro what are you talking about cannonier vs Vettori was fight of the year

[@mylesteller]

@@KechiWatta I'm talking about his personality....we all saw that fight Jared is a great fighter ....you just looking to argue lol...

[@stevepick9527]

Great perspective on life, family and keeping your head on straight…very intelligent observations.

[@skuba714]

A giant of human. Honored to be able to watch him speak his life and work.

[@johndamper2934]

"A giant of a human" haha I like that

[@DaddyPlane]

What he just said is profound.. he put it in a way that alot more people can understand and can connect with. This is exactly the direction ive found mysefl taking recently and i admire this mans heart and perspective. We need more of this.. alot more people should adapt some form of this mindset. Cheers

[@newNew-ip2ki]

Very well said my man 🙏

[@AVWAP]

True martial artist.

[@PC_Gaming_Tech]

What a nice guy, down to earth, articulate

[@skuba2k277]

At 274, He walked through the crowd of people down to the floor and went unrecognized until I shouted his name from a few seats over. He isn’t about the recognition but the pride in himself. Great guy and got his title shot announced that night.

[@DannySullivanMusic]

i agree! 10000% correct man

Big, big fan of Jared, and I genuinely feel that he's only gotten better with age. I hope to keep seeing him for a long time to come, whether inside the octagon or out of the it, like in this video.

Jared believes in qanon, so no, not very smart

[@billyfr6361]

He was generous enough to come train with everyone in alaska and I walked right past him in the door way because he looked and and acted like everyone else. Then he unleashed knowledge so crazy I realized I walked by a grandmaster and didn’t even pay respect. Such a cool fighter. Can’t wait to see his hype train explode him to ridiculous levels and get that pay out.

I love that, trying to be a better man, human, think on these things and make them happen!!

[@wesleyhempoli5548]

The thing about champions is there can only be one. I imagine the "balance" of reality, and that dream, is putting in the work and seeing what happens. If you dont do the work then you already know what will happen. Also, you dont need to be #1, or champion to be successful. Its not all or nothing. Just shoot for the moon and if you miss then you still land amongst the stars.

[@user-zj8mi8of8d]

The thing about MMA is top 10 compered to boxing is straight killers and styles make matches so anybody can nearly win on there day. There's 10 to 15 pound between divisions it's really hard to be champion.but it makes it the best sport in the world
