[@johnstephens7697]

@@anthonylopez9584 You Need To Do Your Research Before You Say Such Things Which Are Absolutely Incorrect&Wrong! It's Disrespectful and Shows your Ignorance or Jealousy! In This Case? BOTH!!!! He wasn't born rich! His grandfather owns a construction company and his grandparents basically raised him. Donald Worked his ass off growing up in the Construction Company and Learned Everything Fast As Possible and Eventually Ran the Construction Company and also Contracted Large Jobs Himself and Made Very Good Money. Donald Built and Paid for his First Home Himself. When He Decided to do FIGHT Professionally He Left Colorado and went looking for a Coach that could/would train him and accept him for who he is but also be a father type figure and help keep himself in line and out of trouble. Donald went to Albuquerque NM to find Exactly that with Coaches Greg Jackson&Mike Winklejohn and surprisingly felt comfortable and at home. Donald was improving greatly in training and winning hardfought battles in the cage and decided to NM his new home so he put his house in Colorado up for sale and it sold surprisingly quickly and Donald found the Ranch which in the beginning was only 28 acres with a very small house in complete disrepair. When his grandfather called to tell him they had a buyer for Donalds house with cash in hand Donald accepted the offer and his grandfather drove the cash directly to him to buy the Ranch. His grandfather asked Donald after seeing the Ranch, Son, Are you sure you want to do this? Lol, he wasn't impressed at all! Donald told him well, you know I can make it nice and whatever I want to in time. The BMF Ranch was born from there and has continually grown and got bigger&better as time passed and Donald won fights and Made more money for improvements and buying more land that joined the Ranch when possible. Now today Donald has a several hundred acres and home and family as well as everything he needs on the Ranch as well as in Life.

In order to love fighting, I have to hate it, there's no love in this without hate. You gotta love it so you want it so bad that you're pushing yourself to those limits, to where you simply hate it. And if you aint there to where you hate it, then good luck tryin' to love this shit. - Nick Diaz

[@MOTIG1]

I've followed your career since the WEC and it's always been exciting to watch you fight. What I loved the most is your attitude and willingness to meet all challenges. Im rooting for you, but i hope you don't get damaged because you stayed in the game to long. I have no idea how hard it is to walk away, but when the day comes Ill probably shed a few and have a few. All the best, love from Norway.

[@turotalks5290]

I’m looking to get into sport psychology in the next year and get my masters then doctorate. It would be a dream come true to work with an MMA athlete. I think you’re absolutely right. Maybe there is that small mental block keeping Cowboy from getting to the ship. Thank you for this comment.

[@adammckenzie8769]

Absolutey I been commenting on here about it... I don’t think he really thi is he can win the title I think what he really wants is his confidence back and his ego... so he can retire with it... if he’s not cowboy the badass fighter he’s nothing (to him) ... conor fight destroyed his ego, the excuses I didn’t wanna be there biggest fight ever and I wasn’t there!! Yet at press conference he said how pumped he was stood up and said we gonna blow the roof off this bitch... when I seen that I could see his confidence wasn’t there he was faking it!! His peek is long gone and he’ll always be a badass I hope he hasn’t got CTE and depressed and lost especially facing retirement and not knowing who u are if u aren’t what u always been.... a badass winner!! If I was dana I’d give him some easy but respectable opponents and retire him on a 2-3 fight win streak!! Tell him title is tied up for too long for his plan!! Which it is.... gonna give khabib time of he fights again then retires it’s a year before two others go for vacant... the. Justin conor tony chandler Dustin all in line for next challenger... how is he gonna beat any of them guys to get a chance... not gonna happen... let him fight 5-12 ranked guys and get 2-3 wins and hang em up!!! Will always be a badass legend of the sport for that reason!! Not cause of results BUT guy has records coming out his ass took fights short notice was gate keeper for yrs! Different weight classes!! He’s a peoples champ!! But I hope he Knows no matter what happens from here he can have his ego high as fuk cause ya can’t change the facts and those are it!!! He doesn’t need this last run which I think can hurt him mentally emotionally and hopefully not physically!! He’s getting ko’d easier and doesn’t seem like the old cowboy full of doubts and trying to convince us to convince himself!!!

[@liorlapid1735]

Cowboy, you're one of my top five favorite fighters of all time. You probably don't read comments from random fans like me, but on the off chance that someone who knows you might share these concerns (that you've already heard a thousand times before), here goes: I feel stupid even mentioning this, since my dreams obviously don't mean anything, but I swear that just two nights ago I had a dream about you dying in a fight. It was the only dream I've ever had about an MMA fight, and of course it wouldn't happen, but fighting again could potentially result in lasting brain damage. And I was left wondering... for what? You are already a legend. You've set so many records and you will always be hailed as one of the most exciting martial artists, with an "anyone, anywhere, anytime" attitude and a humble and charming personality. You're set for life financially, and you're also blessed with love, beautiful children and a brilliant legacy. People would kill to be in your position. What do you still need that is missing in your life? I'm sure there are great and important answers to that question, but is going out on a win really one of them? Your legacy will be bright and untouchable not because you go out on a win at the sunset of your career but because of everything that you have *already* accomplished. One more win would be nice, but would it really add much to the legacy you've built? Would your children need that final win to be proud of their father? Unlike some fighters who delude themselves, you fully understand that you could lose. Would you fight on, in that case, refusing to hang them up until you go out on a win? It's no coincidence that the vast majority of fighters lose their retirement fights. So many legends stick around for far too long, stubbornly trying to get that last W no matter how many L's their brain/long-term health takes along the way (think of B.J. Penn). I don't think that's going to be you. You don't need this. You have earned all the blessings life has to offer. You've had a career most other fighters can only dream about. You've inspired millions, myself included. Why risk lasting brain damage, even if the risk is small, when you have a beautiful family and your legacy and financial future are already secure? You're still young and you have decades of freedom to reinvent yourself any way you choose to. Please consider riding off into the sunset, if not now then after your next fight (win or lose). You've earned it.

You can be pissed at yourself about McGregor but you walked into a cage against a killer, EVEN WHEN you didn't want to be there! Your legacy is no longer your stats, it is what you mean to the future fighters.
