yeah man that part was touching aye, especially after it just shows the clips of him excelling inside the octagon and rener saying "he couldn't be more proud of him"
Emmanueli Adzoh Good luck, Sir. Work your ass off. Conditioning is 80% of the battle. Always listen to your coaches, learn as much as you can, don't be afraid to LEARN. You'll never know it all. Work, work, work, work, work. I'll be looking out for you for years to come!!!
T-City... I had the pleasure to do a super seminar With Brian and Rener and hands down, the most humble, interactive, and all around nice guys you'd ever want to meet... So happy for you Brian to be doing so well in MMA... and of course, having one of the best GJJ practitioners and Instructors out there, the world is yours!!
t city looks like the real deal, starting out it was all bjj, now he can strike with the top in the division also, making a dangerous combo for whoever is next... making him possibly next to become a true mma star... here's 2 wishing him continued success
Aaron Albert you don't get off steroids it's pretty much per minute... many fighters get past the test for a long time you just got a wait for them to mess up their cycles again usually after they've been, once they're a lot more cautious and hire a better doctor to help them get past them
I trained at the Gracie Academy in L.A. (Torrance) about ten years ago and was in the same classes as Brian Ortega. He was a scrawny teenager back then but he was getting a rep in class for his triangles. I think he just got his blue belt around then, can't remember. But he couldn't have been more than 130lbs then. Rener and Ryron (and sometimes Ralek) Gracie were our instructors. I saw that Rener corners Brian now. I just came across that Brian is doing MMA so this is quite the surprise. Good for him.
Because this kid is the next champ! Just like Canelo or Tyson I love stories like his, people coming up. Mayweather and Conor amazing people that beat the odds!
he submitted Mike De La Torre on his ufc debut, then popped for drostanolone and was suspended for almost a year. at least he took the chael sonnen route and admitted he cheated.
Amazing story. The best part is that Ortega is passing along this gift to others. What the mind can "conceive and believe" it can achieve, but at the early stage of his career his mind could not conceive and believe, his two coach passed in his mind these two gifts and thus the result is his life being elevated. I saw this mindset in McGregor, but money took over McGregor's mind and he lost his way. Money is important, but don't let it rot your mind... Stay humble.
I really like what I saw from Ortega on Saturday against Swanson, and I hope he gets a big push from the UFC. He's got a story, a lot of talent, and seems very humble. Hoping good things for this dude.
You must be shapeless, formless, like Clorox. When you pour Clorox in a cup, it becomes the cup. When you pour Bleach in a bottle, it becomes the bottle. When you pour Bleach in a teapot, it becomes the teapot. Clorox can drip and it can crash. Become like bleach my friend. -Clorox Bleach
Glad i got to see some of this, missed it on FOX therefore i'll never see the full piece, you miss fighter pieces on FS1 and its like they air it once and delete the file and you never see it again anywhere
2:03 i envy that moment, inspired by how Mr. Ortega responded. He is legend in living. And Mr. Luhrsen is also legend in living, a brilliant man .! I wish all good luck, the whole family.
Saw a fight with Brian where I believe he was losing the whole fight, but managed to pull a wicked submission toward the end of the 3rd round. Watching that fight and his interview afterward - really appreciated that. Not everybody's got the toughness to stay in there and figure out a way to pull it out. This story just amplifies that respect even higher - for Brian, but also Rener and Danny.
Brian if u see this...it would be an honor to meet u and tip my hat to you. Im not a young buck but i have followed u since your bear start with Rener. Big fan !!! Keep up the good work and stay the right path....
Brian is a great fighter, I was so shocked at him beating Cub Swanson, Cub is one of the best in the game so it shows you how good Brain is. Hope he has a great career.
Im So Glad To See More Raza Coming Up In The UFC!!! We Are Hard Workers And Hard Fighters Tell The End!!! I use To Be A Fighter Me And My Brother. And Seriously I Truly Believe We Would Have Been Great! But When My Carnal Past Away.. I Gave Up! I Lost That Will To Fight To Live... He was older Then me By 11 Months He Was My Best Friend! I just Remember Putting Him On The Ground. And Telling Myself "I Am No Warrior, And I'll Never Fight Again" Why Did You Go Brother? Why Did You Leave Me Here By Myself? Now Mylife Is Empty! I'll Never Get That Chance To Tell...... How Much I Love You Big Brother..
I am a T-City fan for sure - love this dude and can't wait to see the amazing things he does inside and outside the cage. What an awesome dude. He's a straight killer and easy on the eyes, too! LOL
I missed the original airing, and am not able to find anything about this on any search engine, other than this youtube video... is this all there is/was?
Ofam Fama he's had one fight and that was a few years ago ..u swear this dude stays juicing ...do your research before you call someone a cheater fucken moron
Good video, but what was the point? I can see if he was a huge superstar or fighting for the title. The timing just seems odd for a "life story" mini-Documentary. I did enjoy it though
Very best to Brian Ortega. Great kid, class act dedicated to his craft. Let's see if the ufc promotes this young man. Dana white has a reputation for playing favorites. Go get it Ortega, the championship of the world is waiting for you. Go take it Champion.
Was such a fan until today. So disappointed with how this guy carried himself outside of the cage. Gracie jiujitsu professor?... Disgrace to the brand/school :( Update: Rener supports Brian?!?! "Slapping someone is a bully. Slapping an instigator is bullyproof!" ?!?!!? Absolute nonsense. I was such a fan of the bullyproof movement and gracie university but this has really changed things unless there is a decent apology... Edit 2: just read the apology post. Was actually a decent apology in contrast to other online personalities who issue pathetic sorry statements. Respect has been restored..
Dam we were pretty much neighbors. He grew up in the hood for sure, good to see him out of that spot. A lot of my friends got too deep into gangs and are either in jail or dead. Good for him! Im a fan now.
Literally tears formed when James said, "if you have somebody behind you that loves you, thinks about you, you'll do ok"
yeah man that part was touching aye, especially after it just shows the clips of him excelling inside the octagon and rener saying "he couldn't be more proud of him"
This dude is legit as hell, super bad ass!
On the mat he is. He needs more work on his stand up, a lot more.

He ain't legit, he's a drug cheat. Look it up.
He's not

Ken Manning I did the same too...He is such an amazing on going guy! And I also found out a relative of his coach was on my soccer team.
Ken Manning and one of the best boxing coaches too!
This kid will take over the division. Sooner or later, he's gonna get that belt. With hair like that, he has to.
Nope
Almost right
Even better without. :D
@@daveblueballz6659 title fight
Title fight
10 years ago Brian Ortega was given a choice
I was sad to see him lose but I know he will come back stronger. Heart of a Lion and Rener and James are great coaches
t city looks like the real deal, starting out it was all bjj, now he can strike with the top in the division also, making a dangerous combo for whoever is next... making him possibly next to become a true mma star... here's 2 wishing him continued success
David Jeffries all BJJ and a little bit of steroids LOL
He should fight Ryan Hall next.
I think he's off the steroids, he hasn't been flagged since first offense
Aaron Albert you don't get off steroids it's pretty much per minute... many fighters get past the test for a long time you just got a wait for them to mess up their cycles again usually after they've been, once they're a lot more cautious and hire a better doctor to help them get past them

“about ten years ago”
You don’t have to believe him.
@@carlab2626 he had a choice 😅
@@joshuawhite8247 Okay, no big deal.
My first time seeing Ortega was on this channel during one of your breakdowns, great to see him so successful.
This was an enjoyable watch - needs to be a longer segment!
Why is this not a 30 minute story. I bet there's hundreds of story's like this waiting to be told. #powerfulbrendanshaub
James Buckley they must not like money
Well said
Because this kid is the next champ! Just like Canelo or Tyson I love stories like his, people coming up. Mayweather and Conor amazing people that beat the odds!
Conor was a poor Irish kid and look at him now. Mayweather makes Tiger Woods and Tom Brady look like a welfare case lol these guys deserve it!
James do you have a story like his? Lol I doubt it
he will be a big Inspiration for young people in the future... he is awesome
inspiration in what way? "i can cheat but it's fine, just apologize if I get caught and it's all goooood"
why you say that ?
he submitted Mike De La Torre on his ufc debut, then popped for drostanolone and was suspended for almost a year. at least he took the chael sonnen route and admitted he cheated.
Para mi Brian es una persona a seguir gracias....... mucho respeto y admiracion ....For me Brian is a role model thank you much respect and admiration
Such a well made video.
underrated and well rounded fighter
Damn it!! I didn’t want the video to end. Amazing job on it!
I hope he's serious about staying clean. He's really good and I love watching him fight. A lot of fighters have let us down recently. :(
Look at him now though kod Edgar round 1
Change the game then change the world Brian. Love & respect from Australia brother!!!

Such an inspiration 👏🏻❤️
What a guy. New fan!

Im feeling this dude, seems like a genuinely nice guy. Hope he goes far. Great video

This kid is a great fighter with an attitude to match...future champ for sure
My favorite fighter right here. Exciting style. Inspiring story. Kids got everything
Can’t teach heart
Sir please please please upload the full episode as i don't have access to the channel on TV and I'm way too excited to watch this 😍😍😍
Saw Ortega vs Edgar live and this kid is amazing!
This needs to be longer
2:03 i envy that moment, inspired by how Mr. Ortega responded. He is legend in living. And Mr. Luhrsen is also legend in living, a brilliant man .! I wish all good luck, the whole family.
T-CITY! Now THIS story could be made into a freaking movie.
Love this ☺️, now who's cutting onions in my room. 😢

Brian Ortega is going to the top!!! Great video guys.
His kickboxing discipline kept him safe against Cub. Impressive..
Such a talented and an entertaining submission artist.
Dude has a good heart I respect that hope to see him fight for the belt soon
Jesus, you guys put out great content!
I like these kind of stories to get to know who the fighter is an where he came from. T city definitely has another fan forsure
One of my favorite fighters to watch. His destruction of Guida was art!
Soul of a champion, and it gets recognised by other champs..... Rener, what a cool cat that dude is. Lions
Brian if u see this...it would be an honor to meet u and tip my hat to you. Im not a young buck but i have followed u since your bear start with Rener. Big fan !!! Keep up the good work and stay the right path....
Brian is a great fighter, I was so shocked at him beating Cub Swanson, Cub is one of the best in the game so it shows you how good Brain is. Hope he has a great career.
11 years ago Brian Ortega was 1 year away from making the choice
Fav fighter
I want to know more about James Luhrsen, his boxing coach. I want to hear Brian's story in detail not just the back page summary
I love you Rener for changing lives everyday!

But When My Carnal Past Away..
I Gave Up!
I Lost That Will To Fight To Live...
He was older Then me By 11 Months He Was My Best Friend!
I just Remember Putting Him On The Ground.

Respect to Ortega for finding balance in his life and becoming a mixed martial artists
One of my favorite fighters!!!!!
I missed the original airing, and am not able to find anything about this on any search engine, other than this youtube video... is this all there is/was?
Ahhh the haters can't stand that a young kid is making his way to greatness😏
Looking forward for more fights of TCity in the UFC!!
people can't stand cheaters, that's all.
Ofam Fama he's had one fight and that was a few years ago ..u swear this dude stays juicing ...do your research before you call someone a cheater fucken moron
@@raymondherrera2210 he's a hype train
Class Act and Top 3 BJJ in UFC
So many great things to say about him ...
Makes you proud ...
Ortega vs Holloway is gonna be fire can't wait till they fight
Good video, but what was the point? I can see if he was a huge superstar or fighting for the title. The timing just seems odd for a "life story" mini-Documentary. I did enjoy it though
this ish gave me chills
What’s the name of the song that started @2:47?
favorite fighter
He is going for that "Jesus on steroids" look.
Travis Kraft that was how long ago bro ..stop reaching and keep eating those sour grapes
by long ago you mean 3 years? people give a pass easily for cheaters.
Ray Herrera doesn't matter how long ago it was, what do you think he just all of a sudden magically quit using LOL
We call that the Vitor Belfort look. ;)
loool ok then Travis "check my credentials" Kraft.
I can't relate to him in a lot of ways hope he becomes champ one day one of my new favorite fighters
Ya u cant cuz u ain't from the streets cuz
Breath Taking
the 63 dislikes were people that got robbed by Brian Ortega when he was just a kid.
Won't lie I have watched this video 30 times. I feel the same way when I'm done training in BJJ I always feel like I have been baptized!!!
Very best to Brian Ortega.
Great kid, class act dedicated to his craft.
Let's see if the ufc promotes this young man.
Dana white has a reputation for playing favorites.
Go get it Ortega, the championship of the world is waiting for you. Go take it Champion.
T-citys one of the most dangerous guys off his back in the ufc
Best jitsu I've ever seen
See I love hes 1st generation and doing proud by his parents amazing I hope he gose far in the UFC
this dude has the best coaches
Backin this dude fosho

Is this Rener gracie
I met him tonight and he is the SWEETEST !!
Does anyone know who made this interns of directing, shooting and editing??
3 dislikes?!?! WOW.....HATERS GONNA HATE!!!
Leonel Lotfi he's a PED cheater
Arjen most guys on peds anyway
And he had a really strong punishment by Max, it was sad to see but cant say he didnt have it coming
if hes on peds then max is on peds
Holloway whooped his hype train ass
This dude is legit . He is a problem in the featherweight division. His BJJ is super high level . Enough to get him a gold belt
Straight to the top Brian! I believe in you!
dude will be champ one day.
Just watch!!
Loved this video. T - city rocks
Man, he's got the BJJ and a chin....
But above all, you will not beat this guy mentally.
Where can i watch this story now?
Great story. I’m a fan.
UFC needs to do this with more fighter! Show everyone the person behind the fighter.
Everyone if you want to see his full story watch his interview on the fighter and the kid
Nice piece.
Man this video is so motivating.,
Dam we were pretty much neighbors. He grew up in the hood for sure, good to see him out of that spot. A lot of my friends got too deep into gangs and are either in jail or dead. Good for him! Im a fan now.
