Did anyone watch Will Brooks on the MMA Hour taking about his suicide attempt?

[essie]

(starts around 7 minute mark)

It was really brave for him to share and ultimately inspirational. I don't think a lot of people are willing to admit the dark places their mind goes in sad times but he really went there. Incredible stuff.

 

[Cptn1NSAN0]

Good for him to get through the dark times and chase his dream down. War Ill Will. I hope he makes a big splash against Pearson and gets some top ten action for his next fight.

The only thing that kept him alive was the thought of having Travis Browne's babies.

 

[Kalmah]

Well that sounds cringe worthy.

Since OP didn't give us a damn time stamp...It actually takes place @ 22:09




Will Brooks is my hero....He is inspiring me to not give up.

 

[funksoulbrother]

I wanna see him fight khabilov

Where is all the hatred and nasty remarks like when RRR said it

 

[Redhawks100]

Here comes the insults.

I did give a time stamp, just not the one for the suicide comments. I think the full interview is worth watching as it gives full context. Oh well though. I agree he is incredibly inspiring.

 

[Iroh]

Yeah, saw it. Pretty heavy stuff. And not exactly what Ariel expected when he asked if he ever thought about giving up.

Can we just skip that part?

Dont compare Will Brooks to fucking Ronda.


Will Brooks actually had it way tougher.....I can understand how he felt because thats how a lot of people feel in his shoes under those circumstances.

Ronda was a fucking millionaire who wanted to kill herself because she lost.....Sorry but she doesn't deserve sympathy, she deserves ridicule.....hell I wouldn't doubt if she is making up the whole thing just to get ATTN.

I think most sherdoggers know that feel.

[KONE]

Not a fan of Ronda myself but it's most certainly not the best place to bring her up. At all.

Thanks for sharing TS.

You know money doesn't make you happy, right?

That was a great interview; it does take some courage to put that out there. Thanks for posting TS.

 

[Goodfella86]

I saw it. That was such a good interview. I typically cringe when people cry on tv, but that's because I assume it's a bullshit plea for attention/sympathy. Brooks was totally real.
