Was a pleasure to be part of this video gents, an incredibly important topic with so much to cover. Great work putting it together 🙌

If anyone in the comments has any questions, just give me a shout and I’d be more than happy to answer 🤝

Really felt for Franklin there. Looked like learning that information was devastating

wow very insightful. the moment Rich realized how things were being cheated and how that affects the body was heart breaking. he really is trying to keep the fighters safe as best he can.

Incredible work Jason, truly happy too see this level of journalistic integrity. This is easily some of the highest quality MMA content out there, you should be very proud of the work you guys do.

I absolutely love what you are doing with the channel now. Hard hitting MMA journalism is hard to find. Thanks for making this video boys, keep it up 👍

As a former high school wrestler with the hydration test system mentioned in the video (Hydration test and body fat test), I can say for certain that drinking a lot the morning of hydration tests is more than common and unbelievably effective. I’ve never been the most hydrated person, but I’d down about 4 water bottles the morning of testing and passed all 4 years without fail because of it. That being said, the body fat check did prevent me from cutting weight on a few instances, so you could consider it effective. This was on occasion frustrating though, since there was more than one instance in which I made weight to fill a spot vacant in the weight class below me and was told I could not compete there because I had done it too quickly.

I have such an immense amount of respect for everyone involved in this video, Rich Franklin and One putting themselves out there included. This is tremendous work.

Thanks for the video! Yang was my teammate and it's very important that his death won't be forgotten and will actually change the industry, not just being some marketing "gamechanger" slogan for the promotion

Weight cutting
Gloves
Two of the biggest problems in the ufc and i dont know why they aren't fixing it

These mini-documentary style vids y'all are doing are fantastic and I am here for it. This was so well done, please give us more of these.

Just another reminder that these are not nameless faceless entities, but real people who put their lives at risk yes for money fame and championships but also our entertainment and deserve our utmost respect. As sports fans we can become desensitized to what we see however we should always remember that fighters are people just like us with families and friends who care about them regardless of wins and losses. Wonderful job Jason and the entire MMA On Point team.

OneFC's action in 12 days is commendable, they wanted to react quickly to prevent another fighter death, but you've made it clear it's time to revisit. Yet another phenomenal video guys!

These more In depth investigation type videos are some of the best mma videos I’ve ever watched. Been watching this channel since about 10k subs and it’s rly impressive how you guys have grown.

17:48 as a nurse, we actually do learn that at least most of the USA is chronically dehydrated without even realizing it, so yes it is a very real possibility that most people would test as being slightly dehydrated based on urine specific gravity.

I wrestled from the time I was a little kid, all the way through high school. Weight cutting was always just part of the drill, especially once I hit high school. I can recall dressing in multiple layers of clothing, and running for hours the night before a weigh in, just to make weight the next morning. There were times I’d be spitting in a cup on the way to matches, just trying to get rid of any excess moisture in my body. Many hours spent in the sauna also. By the time I’d weigh in, I was so physically exhausted and dehydrated. After weigh in, I’d jam my body full of as many calories as possible. Sometimes I’d regain my strength, while others I didn’t. My parents weren’t aware of the extent or nature of how I cut weight. Cutting weight was never discouraged by the coaches either. Finally, it took me going to a doctor’s appointment, and the doctor informed me of the very real possibility of stunting my growth, and doing permanent damage to my organs if I continued the drastic weight cutting. From that point on I quit cutting as much weight, and wrestled closer to my natural weight. I had to train myself how to eat right again, as I developed a bit of an eating disorder. It was a challenge, but I definitely stayed healthier.

Fantastic, strong work Jason. Exposing this information to advance the science is very respectable: for combatting the inaccurate testing format, and for informing the health risks. Seeing Rich's response inspires hope that the organizations will also advance the situation. Your and Tommy's journalism on this channel is excellent and we benefit from your pursuits. Thank you 🙏

No other channel makes MMA content this well versed, this is a much needed video for the community.

I wrestled in middle school and my friend had a problem making weight so on occasion he'd put a sweat suit on get covered in towels and sit on the floor of the bus by the heater then he'd go from that to running laps when we got to the match and his dad was the coach I just look back at it now and I'm grateful no one ever got hurt doing that

going from top 10 lists and short format videos with quick commentary, to  long and loaded documentary type videos with a lot of research and even more sources seems like a tough thing to get right for viewers to enjoy. but i end up watching the whole video eyes glued to the screen not even realizing 40 minutes went by. This channel is the best mma channel and they keep upping their already great game. Much love

This channel is seriously leveling up. Great interviews, analysis and great journalism. Well done everyone involved!
