Tim Kennedy has always been my favorite fighter. An active Spec Ops fighting MMA? Doesn't get more badass than that.
Mr. M he's retired now
Huh didn't know that. I guess I got caught up watching too much vids on youtube.
ION Rayner cmiiw but i believe he was competing in martial arts competition back when he was activr
Guile "Sonic Boom" Stann
Vincent Pasceri lol, looks like that Marine corps propaganda is working.
If more Americans were like this dude this country would have only warriors instead of so many weaklings.
Let’s make everyone the same. Sounds great. I think they’ve tried that.
Ok Charles Darwin
@@Fullyautomagic He isn't saying make everybody the same. What he is saying is men need to stop being entitled little children.
You mean guys with skills who could push back against jew agenda, but instead are card carrying normies who happily collect a paycheck?
The adversary in Afghanistan and Iraq are warriors as well, it would be cool to have more people that value creating and protecting a quality life for as many people as possible.
Guys your comments are bringing tears to my eyes. This is the realist shit I've ever posted. I'm not gonna be perfect but I'm gonna be fucking authentic. Thank you guys for your comments and encouragement. Funker Tactical for life. Thank you Tim Kennedy. You've opened my eyes and my heart. -GN

#TimKennedyForPresident
Jocko, Tim Kennedy and many other military representatives need to be added in our current history books
Lol what a fucking stupid thing to say
@Maximus Decimus Meridius yeah man because the right wingers wanting to invite Christian teachings and creation in school is education😂
@Maximus Decimus Meridius yeah I bet you believe that bullshit as well.
Damn. That’s all I can say your message is real
David Goggins
Tim Kennedy has a case for copy right infringement against Marvel's Captain America.
I'm not an American but I did do my service, for my country, and came out damaged both physically and mentally. Watching this video has made me want to jump on a plane and spend time with this guy. He is inspirational and has given me things to think about!
GN... Dude!!! You drew out the best in Tim which is EXACTLY how I believe, think and breathe everyday of my life after my 20yrs of service for OUR nation! When you posed those questions... it was amazing... I was in lockstep with what Tim was saying which was a confirmation to me that I also have those foundational skills and not as messed up, out of place or don't belong as I thought I was. Thank you GN and Tim... you both such a blessing to all of us! ~Gary
I agree 100%. Those of us who served should be leading the way, not asking for handouts.
A lot of us are leadingin many ways. I don't point fingers at those who don't, I don't have time for that nor do I want to waste my energy hurling cut downs even if people deserve it. Elevate those around you, elevate yourself, and inspire others to do the same and the world gets better one person at a time. The more people that are propping up society with good values and hard work ethic the easier the load for us all. Team work doesn't end when you ETS out, you teach others the importance of it by example. Be the mentor you wish you had when you were younger and teach the undisciplined in the art of being a warrior.
Tim and this turd are ignorant. I served with Kennedy in 10th SFG - he’s nothing special. He wouldn’t know what it’s like because he’s never had to endure a complex situation. He did his basic time and got out with his ignorant yap.
powerful and elegant. He speaks the truth of all facets of life and with foundations built on dirt not sand. thank you funker and thank Mr. Kennedy.
:) Around 8:30:"I eat clean, I don't drink alcohol, I don't smoke", that's a genuine smart guy.
"Tim Kennedy is a badass" is the understatement of the year.
I've always admired, and respected, Tim Kennedy. Now, after this interview, it just went to a whole new level. Thanks for the inspiration.
Amazing. We're lucky America breeds guys like Tim Kennedy.
Ricky Pastille it also breeds guys like Donald trump 😂
Robertjr82 hmmm since when?
Tom Ivins He's a lot better than Obama. 😂
Tom Ivins that is a shitty response
sorry tom that was meant for robert
What Tim said about surrounding yourself with like minded people is the biggest mistake I made when I got out, I did not do that and my personal and professional career suffered for WAY too long for it
Had to buck the fuck up, get my mind straight, first, then things started falling into place, still not there, yet, but I'm on the right track to get where I want to go
Anibal Perez when I got out, I found myself isolated and could not relate to many people. I happened upon a like minded veteran and were are now like family. My wife still doesn't understand why I can't just make couples friends with her. I tell her she doesn't understand, i can only get along with certain people.
Bredaxe yeah, real friendships have been close to impossible if not a veteran
Anibal Perez Just keep at it. Baby steps and never go backwards. If you feel yourself slipping, reach out a hand. Even if you can't find another veteran, some civi's hearts are just as good and they're just as good to talk to. Just make friends in places where you would expect to find people that are like you. However you have to remember that while it's always good to be around people like yourself, don't just surround yourself with Yes-men.
Tim clearly has his head on straight and is a perfect example of the warrior elite class. This guy could really change the world. Awesome interview and thanks for sharing!
Very well spoken. This is common on this side of the border as well.Paulo as always great work. Peace and love brother
This is a terrific interview! Tim Kennedy is one of the greatest humans on the planet and he truly makes it a better place to live! Thanks guys!
i was a navy corpsman for 10 years, i never seen combat, i was an orthopedic tech, and was stateside for my whole enlistment.
with that been said, i can't stand vets who think they are entitled. tim hit the nail on the head. thanks, a lot of vets need to hear this, along with a lot of martial artists, i was also a kali, escrima practitioner for 3 years. thats why i sub'd this channel in the first place. thanks brother!!
This is great. Coming from a martial artist, Veteran, and now a correctional officer who spent some time with US C-SOG. It's great to hear an authentic warrior speak about the real deal daily grind of things. That's where it should be. Keep it up GN I love your videos and the team you work with is top notch, not that I need to tell you that.
I'm a Marine Corps vet and I remember when I was going through Basic at 3rd Bat, H Company, back in 85-86 My Drill instructor made the comment that Marksmanship is the American Martial Art, not play time but a Discipline..."There is no fun in gun...only Pride and the pursuit of excellence".
I should show this to my cousin. His drunk ass needs shape up.
nuthin' to it but to do it!
good
can you imagine being one of the few MMA fighters that beat an Speacial Forces operator! no negativity intended btw....I'm just saying it's amazing that a good fighter is a good fighter regardless if he is an SF operator or a bouncer....if your fundamentals are good.
That’s the point though ....right? He’s a martial artist then an operator: not a martial artist because he was an operator.
99 times out of 100 a pro mma fighter beats a SFO.
In an MMA fight...not a life or death fight...let's be honest about the difference! MMA trains first for the "sport" of MMA...not train to kill in life or death situations!
@@dawsonsschittcreek5395 hahaha they are trained to ‘not kill.’ That means that they know how; Unless you are talking about the levels of threat other than empty-hand.
Whoever is controlling the fight has the greatest chance of ending it by killing, subduing, or submitting. Yes people submit in combat/fights; it’s the acceptance of the submission that isn’t guaranteed.
There is no “train to kill” in empty-hand arts. You train to stop before the kill, or injury. The Green Berets, navy seals, and the marines have figured that out in the last 20 years.
The best chance for a ‘kill shot’ is a punch to the face and the fall, and that is of low chance of success.
People forget that military service men , may it be special forces or not. Do not go out there kicking asses like Bruce lee. They use tools, and they do it well.
It's that false narrative brought into the world by dummies. that don't get that, operators are guys that use tools and don't go out there to Bruce lee their way through shit
I am a huge UFC guy and Tim Kennedy is a total BEAST ! What an American. He is a true roll model screw NFL and NBA thugs Kennedy Is the man
I agree with his message over all, but his PTSD issue is very broad brushed. Everybody operates and maintains at different speeds and tempos. I have more PTSD from growing up in Flatbush Brooklyn than I probably ever could from the Marine Corps. During my time in the Marines my upbringing was my foundation, it was my baseline. Everything was up from there. You can't expect the same from someone who had an "easier" or different upbringing. Their mindset is not operating at that manner. I do agree that some do use their PTSD, anywhere it stems from, as a crutch and a means to not progress and to not carry on gets stale after a while.
Concerning "entitlements", I believe that people are misconstruing the word with something of their own particular perspective or opinion. If the programs like VA home loan or GI Bill is not an entitlement, then military recruiters need to stop presenting it as such. To stand in front of colleges, universities and high schools, and pitch veteran based programs as a sort of quid pro quo for their military service maybe setting the wrong example. Quite possibly that is the reason behind the uprising of PTSD cases. The military is not recruiting people with a warrior mindset who want to serve their country, but instead recruiting people who just want a means to pay for their education and a low interest home loan.
Dawud G Delves Couldn't agree with you more. Recruit warriors that seek to fight, not punks looking for easy ride, entitlements and safe spaces because war hurt their feelings. Send in killers to kill and leave the lap dogs at home.
Yut!
Well said
Phenomenal interview. I hold more respect for Tim Kennedy the more I hear him speak. Great job.
He makes me feel like I can go out and kick ass again. To the Vets out there, you are better than most...we just gotta keep proving it every single day. The fight may have changed, but it's still out there.
Tim Kennedy is an amazing human being and American patriot. God bless you Mr. Kennedy.
Tim Kennedy is the man. If you ever feel lazy or like you've done enough he'll make you want to do more.
Give this man the presidency. Guys remember Tim Kennedy, calling out the toughest men and women of America to elevate the American attitude. TBH..."Start something" has saved my life and set me up to be better than I was yesterday, it throws out the anxiety from the possibility of failure.
Your question on "what did those that got cut lack" was brilliant. Well done!
Great video GN. HUGE fan of the channel. This by far, is one of the best videos on the subject anywhere...PERIOD! I retired from 20 years of active duty service almost 14 years ago and I also use the label 'entitled' in reference to those who feel a debt is owed to them beyond what they 'earned'. It chaps my ass to see so many of the 'entitled' walking around with their hands out demanding more.
That was a great message passed along by Mr Kennedy and I hope it goes viral. I hope all those watching it find it within themselves to get up off your ass, dust yourself off and get back into the fight. I preach 'nobody can take care of you like you can'. So, to all those 'entitled', STOP THE BULLSHIT and take care of YOU!
Great outlook! “Easier said than done”..... “is it?” Agree that vets looking for thanks and disability checks is a sickness and a dishonor!
Great video, we need more people like this in our country.
Tim Kennedy is a true man and an all around badass without a doubt! Good shit!
Loved the question, “the guys that get cut from that class, what do they lack?” Never heard that asked before. Nice job
I love how unapologetic and yet sincere he is. Awesome guy. Hope I can meet him someday.
Hell YEA!!!, This is why there guys, whom are leading from the front. There our big brothers with bigger spirit then those of us who followed in the branches and ranks behind them. Thank you or interviewing Mr Kennedy. HooYaa!
Love this video, but I respectfully disagree with one point. While all veterans deserve respect, some vets deserve even more because they have sustain significant, life-long injuries, either physical or psychological. Those vets deserve the "dog" and financial support from the rest of us. I say this as someone who has had the privilege of flying some of those veterans who have seen the worst (through Veterans Airlift Command). So Tim, love ya. You are the man. You have my utmost respect! That said, there are those vets not as fortunate as you or I. Otherwise, I totally agree with you that veteran businessmen and businesswomen have the discipline to succeed. Personally, my Army SF years were my formative years and have served me very well in business. Don Catalano, ODA-754 HALO-Scuba.
Thank you for saying this. I've just discovered Mr. Kennedy and really like what he has to say. He reminds me of Gen. George S. Patton. One of the lessons I have had to learn about leadership is that those who naturally poses it are cut from a different cloth. We hold ourselves to a standard higher than anyone outside of us ever could. The challenge is learning to let those people, whom we care about most, live to their own standard.
Absolutely agree, we owe some of these guys and their families more than we could ever give, but as a 20 yr Army vet, I see a large majority looking for a handout and abusing the system set in place for true PTSD sufferers. I had some tough deployments and yeah my head wasn't right after a couple but you know what? I still had a family to support, troops to lead and a mission to accomplish. How am I going to accomplish any of that feeling sorry for myself? There are guys that went through shit 10x worse than what I did and they succeeded. We only get one chance at this life, don't be a pussy.
Love this dude!!! Love where he's coming from. The most vital point he makes is-it's a choice. Make it and get on with it. I've believed that all my life. But your counterpoint is also valid in that it's easier said than done. If it weren't so we'd ALL be badAzz warriors in tiptop shape.
I am in my forties and if I look at my natural talents and discipline, the truth is I have fallen woefully short. I have rarely pushed myself. When Tim says it's not easier said then done, just start, he's spot on. I have made excuses most of my life and while it was essential to having a friend lead me in the right direction, I was lazy. Men, you can be better men, mentally, spiritually, physically, character wise. Just take the first step and resolve to take the next. Embrace the suck, own your failures, and keep the end in mind. Hurry up and fail. Be warrior poets, be sheepdogs, be men.
Agreed. I’m not a leftist or rightest. I’m not a machismo either. But I believe men need to be men again. Hard working, proficient at hand to hand and shooter warfare, learn respect, compassion, and be intelligent and learned. There’s so many things that make a “GOOD” man, and I walk around in this country and see the vast majority of males being anything but men. We need people like Tim, Jocko, Andy, and many others like them as an example. I train hard everyday to strengthen my three pillars: Physical, Mental, and Physical. Men need to be men again. Jordan Peterson said it best. We need this in order to make this place balanced again. 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
Wow, never heard of this guy before today, but super impressive. Having been to war and started a business as a Vet myself, the things Tim said are kind of eye opening. Things need to change and I feel like this is giving me a different perspective that I didn't really consider before. Thanks for sharing it.
Not only veterans have PTSD.
Though it can be similar in some ways.
I think he has right perspective to deal with it either way.
God Bless you guys. I appreciate you fellas and what you do for us civilians.
"You're more powerful than you think you are. Act accordingly". Seth Godin
Tim Kennedy talks like a winner. I like the no more excuses motto it but it will not be popular with 95% of the people out there as we are living in a culture of how can I get somebody else to pay my way.
one of the best and truthful videos I have ever seen Semper Fi
This guy makes me want to do better!! Holy shit Tim's the man!!!!! Fuckin warrior!!!!
TK is a bad man! Always good to hear what he has to say!
You ask GREAT questions..... I'm only 10 mins into this, but I have to tell you in ANY media form, large or small, you've probably been the most intelligent interviewer I've heard in a very long time. Subscribed..
I need to do some research on the guy but is it safe to say Tim Kennedy for president
research not needed, certified BAMF
themrjones Yes... Brian Stsnn is another
themrjones agreed
Tim Kennedy is exactly right , we as veterans all signed on our names on the dotted line . It's a job that we do , we are no different than anyone else , whether a fire firefighter or a policeman or any other profession . We all knew what we were getting into, know one owes us anything, our profession is about doing our job and doing what is necessary to win the fight . We are in it to win it, the true warriors, don't want handouts , if you want things in life you earn it, we don't want anyone to give us anything, we do this job because we want to not because we are going to get something for free.. The true warrior knows that, we are fighting for freedom and repression and things that are more than who we are . We are in it to be the best that we can be !
We do this job because we want too , not because we are going to get anything !
Very motivating! As a Vet, I am doing exactly what he is talking about. Creating a business and showing people the skills in war can apply in business and n life to succeed. Cause once you tame that war monster, everything else in life is bit easier to do.
when im not watching mma im watching funker tactical :) this is the perfect combination
I've said this multiple times when asked if I have any 'regrets' about my life; and I always say, I regret never having served in the military... I have the greatest respect for those who have served... Why?? Because all gave some, some gave all... As a man, as an American who can't respect that???
So no bullshit I have goose bumps and he is positively 100% correct and sincere it's refreshing!! thank you for posting this interview it has been really inspirational ..hell yes THANK YOU!!
This is a sane, grounded, no bullshit dude. He is what he is. I wish things were always as cut and dry as he says they are....they of course should be. This was a good video.
Tim Kennedy is the greatest example of a man ever. #science
Mr. Kennedy is awesome. Thanks for the video.
Unfortunately he's right about entitlement attitude among us Veterans.
There really is and I think it's a generational thing but aide from that quite a few vets i know complain a lot about small shit and use that as a crutch to get sympathy from others and not continue to be a badass motherfucker
I didnt realize how entitled we were until i became a cop. The "im a veteran" excuse is used so often
@@jeffd1337 I know it took me a long time to see it. I go to the VA quite a bit and know alot of guys their and they have the attitude of welfare scammers! It's pathetic. The big thing is Military Sexual Trauma (MST) and guys are claiming this more and more because it's basically hearsay and they get their service connection increase. Total bullshit!!
I am so glad he is on our side.
Ok a normal uk guy here,, Tim Kennedy is a legend... never heard this guy talk before ,, but my god this guy should be the measure a man is measured by... real talk
James 4:10 "Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord and he shall lift you up." THAT'S the first step.
Tim Kennedy is the epitome of why I don’t use my veteran status for anything. I’m a member of the VFW but not a lodge, only at large. I went into a lodge and the biggest feature there was the bar. Then they had the nerve to tell me I had to go through some sort of approval process to become a member of the lodge. They only did that on the last Monday of each month. I work for a living and at night so that was never going to happen. I don’t care about that part of the VFW, nor any benefits they offer. I refuse to buy a veteran hat because they are all made in China. Wtf is that about anyway?
We should all get behind Tim to make the hardest principles, home, community, town, city, and country, anyone will try to kill!!
Go Funker, and go Tim!
"Do any fuckin thing" Best advice ever. The best fighters/lifters/business people I have met in my life say the same thing.
entitlement has become an epidemic in this country, Tim Kennedy, keeping it real, and telling it like it is, great video
I also agree with him. Not all of us have what it takes to live war and come back stronger. those who cant, SOULDIER UP!
as a honorable discharged vet, I wan't nothing from the government, nothing but them to do the job they are supposed to do! you are a very good instructor and a lot of youth's could learn a'lot from you! just try to control the foul language and earn their respect.
Tim probably should have a drink and relax a bit. PTSD always catches up with guys who can’t switch off ever and he’s one of those guys.
Make a choice and do it! This is my motto of the year! I love the video and the guy - so much sense and clarity of thinking!
So much respect for Tim Kennedy... authentic warrior
It's be spoken !!!! Tim Kennedy for president ! Semper fi
Im going to change my life thanks to the inspirational words of Tim Kennedy
Awesome interview with an awesome veteran! 👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Wow. About time the community changes. Be the badass you said you were when you signed on the line. Truer word have never been spoken
Your right he's the man. Great video who wouldn't be inspired after watching that guy. Much props!
Thank you Tim and funker your words of wisdom and motivation. put an even bigger fire under my ass enlisting in the US army in August. and was hopeful that I would become special forces but now I'm not hopeful cause I'm making it fucking happen. Thank you again
Damn! Hell yeah. that motivated me. Tim Kennedy, nothing but respect. Keep it up brother. Funker tactical keep it up.
Wow. I never comment on videos but his statements are a needed splash of cold water in our faces.
I have so much respect for Tim. A great American.
Well said Tim and thank you for sharing
btw I'm a vet
This interview is good. You should have this interview again with him in another 5 - 10yrs. He has a great mindset. Brian Stann as well.
holy shit too much greatness spoken in 12 minutes...i can't speak for the veteran community but on behald of American martial artists thanks for your efforts and contributions to the world Mr Kennedy.
Exactly!!! Make a choice and do it! Absolutely!
He speaks the truth. More people have to have pride.
Love it! Tim is the man! #DONTBEAPUSSY
that was really heavy. thank you for getting this interview! I have a pretty good sense now of how to ride alongside tim's energy!
This dude is TELLING it how it is. No fucking gimmicks, no extra tacticool bullshit that supposedly will make it or break it for you to operate, he just speaks truth.
I would love to be trained by this man in all aspects. He respects tradition but understand the need to build on what is the foundation and make it as practical and efficient as possible.
Real talk!!! Expect nothing less from this man. Great interview!👍🏾
He is 100% right about veterans with PTSD......hell i am a veteran with PTSD, the difference between me and any other veteran with PTSD is simple.......i simply refused to let it control me to determine what i can do and where i can go and who i can be around....i just simply said to myself that PTSD was not going to control my life or define who and what i am. Number one you have to force yourself to get up get out and do something anything. Number two you have to go over that traumatic experience over and over and over in your mind for at least an hour every day.......that is what takes PTSDs power over you away. Tim Kennedy is one hundred percent right about what he is saying.....listen to him......learn from him.
He spoke out from my heart.........
How can I help America as a civilian!? I want to be a warrior Tim.... I have it in my soul.
Whoa. I had no idea who Tim Kennedy was before I watched this...I do now. Going to be looking for more from him!
A principled man is rare these days. Get the fuck into the White House Tim. We need heroes like Washington again to follow.
Seeing that our country makes badass warriors like that makes me proud to be an American!
This man is probably the toughest guy anywhere he goes and he doesn't have cauliflower ears
True
headgear works.
The guy who gave someone cauliflower ears is more dangerous than the guy with the cauliflower ears.
Hate to break it to you guys...he ain't. See his last fight against Kelvin Gastelum. Kennedy took a brutal beating against Gastelum...who in turn got his lunch handed to him by Chris Weidman...who got pummeled by Luke Rockhold...who was knocked out by Vitor Belfort...who gut the crap kicked out of him by...wait...you guessed it...Kelvin Gastelum. I was in the martial arts for over 15 years. I'm confident in my skills...but I learned one lesson very early on. No matter how good you are, there's always someone better just around the corner on any given day. Be confident in your skills, but don't believe your own bullshit too much or you just may end up lying in it.
To the guy talking about Tim’s losses you are correct but fight math just doesn’t work. Cuz he also knocked Yoel onto queer st so bad he had no clue where he was. But yeah lots of bragging
absolutely fantastic interview and questions. you nailed it and Tim's answers were so interesting and perfect. smart clean dangerous experienced guy. a way to live and learn from his answers.
My respect to you Mr Tim Kennedy, you are the type of fighter and War Veteran I look up to , I agree with you all the way!! I wish I would met you when you were here in Argentina I believe I must of seeing you in the UFC Expo at last Vegas, at I know if you were there my Son must of seeing you for sure. Hope some day I would come accross you and Shake your hand. I should return to USA soon. Lots of Blessings to you !!
