Had a lot of problems with this video being uploaded over the past couple of days, hope you guys enjoy it. I'll be back to regular content now and streams, I'll post the full interview with Dricus Du Plessis closer to his fight, it was very hard to get recorded content whilst out there but I tried for the vlog I guess.
Also I need better fitting clothes I ain't 300lbs anymore. Shoutout to everyone at team CIT for welcoming me. Especially @cameronsaaiman
Bro is the biggest South African fan I’ve ever seen
The sound is truly awful.
make a wish south african trip
your still favorite fat mma youtuber
bro with all due respect, i couldve edited this video in an hour for you for free and not wait for your dumbass to edit this for an entire month
This guy is an inspiration. He’s beat Downs and being wheelchair bound all in one life.
The elephantitis tho will be a a forever challenge for him.
Crazy he's recovering, seeing how he's the first pig human hybrid
He beat Judaism too
I swear this guy was disabled 😂😂
How did they CGI his legs like that u reckon? It's impressive.
You’re editing is incredible! The fact that you were able to make it look like you were walking is amazing.
😂♿️
i thaught he was really wheelchair bound
The fact this guy has support from these weird mma fans is insane. Goes to show how weird mma fans are truly. & his ego is just as big as his weight problem: jeez
cgi has its limits tho no kicks
@@jse_illustrationshe is. CGI is incredible these days
the fact his coach corrected his handshake is beyond respectful of him to do for you
If only coach was informed that jewru sits in his basement all day he wouldn’t have corrected it
@@SiegfriedDerDrachentoterim sure he knew that guru supported DDP in that Izzy situation
@@szczypi0rek he definetly knows
@@Azubjourni of course he does his coach mentioned guru in a tweet when he responded to the situation involving areil.
@@lukeluna3732 Yeah, facts i remember that. Guru even mentioned it in a video, thanks for remembering.
Zero shame bro. You did great. Especially for someone who doesn't train all the time. What an amazing experience. Proud of you bro. Instead of sitting behind a computer. You got out there with elite people. So happy and proud for you.
I joke a lot in Guru's comment section, but if I'm being real, I'd be honored to have a similar experience with these guys. They all seemed like cool, genuine dudes.
Dude flew 11hrs, zero sleep, spent a few hours having his energy sapped further in some boiling podcast room, then had to summon energy to be filmed throwing against mitts.
Just you know, sending motivational comments about guru without hinting to his disability or weight imbalance won't get you much likes here mate
@@MrPiszczek the memes are dying at this point, genuine comments is the new trend in 2024

stem cell technology is amazing i never thought you would walk again, i nearly teared up at how far youve came, good job john
It's amazing the advancements in the medical field. His striking was good. He's just got to break in and get used to using those legs again and really generate power from his legs into his punches and his movement. But he has a really good base to build off of honestly.
@@benmcreynolds8581When did he talk about stem cells?
It's sad that it only helped him for a few days for the vlog and he's back to the wheelchair. 😞
@@mr.brenman2132 i never said he did? I was sarcastically replying to the OG comment in this comment section..?
Why does everybody have to make the same shitty ass joke?
Guru's video editor has missed Christmas with his family so he could put together this CGI masterpiece. It genuinely looks like his legs are connected to his body. Give that man a raise!
Lmaoo the uneducated viewer wouldn’t realize this video has a $3MM budget 😂
@@StreamlinedGaming_ I read somewhere it was closer to 10 mill, possibly more. Truly an incredible feat of cinema
😂😂
You forgot to mention he edited out the skull cap as well.
y'all hilarious 😂
I never knew how much I was going to like Cameron Saaiman. Cant wait to root for him in his next fight.
He seems like a really good dude. I'll be rooting for him from now on as well.
Ikr! He is amazing. Im a fan now
fr rooting for him from now on seems like a super cool guy Cam made himself so many new fans with this
Absolutely 💯
I have always like CS as a fighter, I just like him as a human now too, what a great dude!
Saaiman seems like a really awesome dude. Got an instant fan here
The fact this guy has support from these weird mma fans is insane. Goes to show how weird mma fans are truly. & his ego is just as big as his weight problem: jeez
Piggy got a little bit of fame and left us all behind.. sad to see
Pigga got a little bit of juice and forgot who he was drinking water with.
Maybe stop calling him piggy you weirdos. He mogs all of you
🐷
Oink
Never seen so many grown men foaming at the mouth for more piggy action. Has he not farted on camera and done sus impressions enough to satisfy your needs for the time being?
Artificial Intelligence has come a long way, it almost looks like guru actually has a full functioning body
and AI somehow shrunk DDP and everyone else to make 5'6 Guru look HUGE.

Best part of the video is when youre scared of the "quick background check" 😂
😂😂😂
Watching this filled me with pride, it was like watching my daughter being born all over again. Love u big dog
Abit weird but it's all love ✌
Agreed 😂@@freedom9160
I have 3 kids (that I know of), and their births were way less exciting than this video. About the same amount of crying in each instance, if I'm being honest.
@@freedom9160 was a bit, sorry, dunno wot happened there.
Biggest gimp comment I've seen on UA-cam for a while this 😂🤦🏼♂️
i gotta say Cam is a straight up solid dude.
Still can't believe Cam is so young, guy is uber mature for his age, going to go far, surely.
@@saffakaneraI agree with your comments wholeheartedly good sir it's just that it's 2024 are we still using the word Uber

We miss ya G. Looking forward to you fighting Francis. Keep training hard bud!
You're trying to get a man k1ll*d
Hell nah😂
Cameron seems like such a cool, nice dude. This was great content man.

@@FinnMMAhe has a podcast btw.
I really like how homemade this feels. So much of mma content is now very polished. This feels real.
ah yes the assault on my right ear for 20 minutes, that homemade feel 🔥
@@txmato Maybe replace your raycons idgit
@@txmatomines in my left ear for some reason.
@@txmatoAfraid to play the video out loud lol?
@@mr.brenman2132 on a pc with no speakers? clown
The fact that you went through all of that, gave them all that respect and still put, Strickland by tko, is wild asf 😂.
Really? 😂 He's a crazy lad
He joked that he was gonna do it on Cam's podcast, madlad did it lol
What an amazing experience. So happy for you dude. You deserve it. You are the peoples champ in MMA content. That is so much harder than people know. We love you bro.
“I’m a 6’4” gigachad”. Literally lol’ed.
You’ve been in Africa longer than the 3 “African kings” have combined this year
chill.. Francis is in africa right now 😂
3 African kings? Strickland, Perry and DDP?
This was last year 🤦
Best comment
@@MojKanal-cz1izfr
Cameron is so down to earth. Great guy
Proud of guru for doing all of this stuff out of his usual routine. Great content. Respect !
My left ear is loving the start of this vlog. Hopefully the right can get some sweet action too.
Boom right in on the action. Good work guru - I knew you wouldn’t do me dirty like that.
Same thoughts 😂
I thought my headphones were broke "an all that type a staff"

The having to get two handshakes from that guy is hilarious 🤣🤣🤣😭😭
hahaha
Guru, you are Awesome bro! This makes such a huge difference for Drikus, Cameron and the rest of us. Who've always believed in Stillnocks! Thank you man
Time for the 48 hour members stream to make up for lost time😊
Shouldn’t be an idiot and pay for his crappy content
No BS😂
Yikes:… guru members sighting ^^^ haha everyone point and laugh
@@nickscarla-tl9xpit’s like $3 bro. For Christs sake ask mom for a bigger allowance if you won’t get a job😂
I like how the coach made the guy shake your hand properly lol
Good for you Guru. Really happy to see you get to experience this. Great stuff, keep it up man!
Real Talk!!
Yeah real talk, dont get why people act upset at seeing a guy getting to do cool things and moving up
you can see how good it is for him to hang around people that all really like him. When he was back home you could really tell he kinda missed SA
Love seeing you put your money towards something that progresses your channel, and that we can all enjoy
You deserved a break Guru you truly pumped out so much content this past year, reached new heights and deserve to take it in a bit!! Congrats on all the success and cant wait to see what comes next for you
Piggy absolutely does not deserve a break he is our content slave I have no idea what you’re talking about.
Get off the burner account mason
Weirdo
"reached new heights" is a pretty insensitive thing to say to a wheelchair bound guy don't you think?
Stop glazing the 🐷
Bro literally tried his hardest to not look fat with the angles and everything 😂
MMA Kubrick
Lmao, but on a real note Guru has lost a ton of weight since he said he was going to start working out, which is something you’ve got to respect. Kept his word.
leon edwards WW goat
What a shit thing to say. Guy is clearly trying, aint too confident and is really out of his comfort zone. Bet he looks better on those pads than you buddeh.
Douche
these guys in south Africa are cool as fk.from the podcast to the fights. cool mother fkrs. respect from beavercreek ohio
Been saying it for years, Boers are the most based version of human
@@Romanus-yeah I second that man, solid lads for real
Beaver creek
Bro! I am so proud of you! This is your "I made it" moments. I gotta smile on my face all the way throughout. I can't imagine you thought you would be. 2024 will be amazing ❤
Doing splits on it
I’m fuckin happy to see Ru out there mixing it up with these guys. And doin some training. Cameron is the man, so used to seeing him fight, seeing what his personality is like is cool. And Ru you gotta just relax alittle man. You put yourself in such a good position in life. When you’re out in public just relax yourself you can literally see how tense you are when walking into the gym. You relaxed after you worked out. But all in all super happy to see you vlogging. Always invested in your life man. You got a great mind on you.
Nice to see the audio team was put to good use
These South African hunks really were gentle with guru ❤
I was your first donator and seeing you succeed makes me happy bro!
South Africans are great people. Ive never met one that i didnt thouroughly enjoying being around and speaking too. GOOD SHIT GURU!
Bee and braai for you
Absolute masterpiece can’t even get the audio right
Douche
Guru editted out the part where he fed DDP the ammunition now that Strickland is the poster child for mental illness after the press conference. Most feared commentator in MMA now
Cam and Dricus are cool af. Already always loved Dricus before and want him to become champ. But for Cameron rooting for him from now on seems like a super cool guy Cam made himself so many new fans with this
I’ve made a few different accounts since then but I can proudly say I’ve been watching Guru since about 50k subs and tbh I want more of this content. Not saying that I want him to slow down his regular content but it is refreshing seeing a more human side of the Guru and I would definitely like to see more vlogs!
I never thought I’d see the day. Been watching this man for 3 years now
i love how guru ignores all camerons requests for cage control. to be fair itd be extremely overwhelming just being there so its hard to focus id imagine, would be for me at least. great vid guru love seeing you mix it up
Probably hasn't hit pads in a long time and being with someone new with an accent it all goes into it. Seems like he was focusing on the shot commands and his coordination above everything else. Cage control can be for another day😂
@@Dukestboy96 exactly hahah. Guru didn’t look bad on the pads either. HW wheelchair division has been quiet since this video dropped
Stooge
he walks!!it's a miracle!!!great video, Guru..thank you for this
CS is a top fella for taking you in to his gym and treating you like one of their own... I have always rated him as a fighter, but this shows what a great human he is too. Well played Cameron, and Guru tbf. It just goes to show how important ring/cage control is in a fight, as a non fighter you can appreciate just how important it is
"Here i am acting pretty Autistic and Gay really..." lol 😆 *It's freaking dope to see this kind of footage. Knocking over the mic with that high five ✋🏻 lol *Keep at the Boxing training! The potential is there especially if u stay at it. It's so cool to see the support from Cameron and Dricus and that you got to interact with UFC staff. Cameron had a great attitude and approach to all of this lol
I'm so happy for Jon Della Porkalena
sounds like jack della madallena
@@ItsameAlexhe's nothing like Jack Meoff
Love the guru, that audio quality was genuinely some of the best I’ve ever heard
Happy to see him succeed tbh. Hope he keeps the same raw unfiltered style of videos, it’s what makes them charming for us
Respect. The Gurean Nightmare strikes again. So cool you did this!
AI is getting wild. It looks like he can walk
You gotta love Cameron Saiiman, great bloke
Awesome work Guru. Best video to date. Loved the raw style. Loved the honesty and vulnerability also. Nothing but respect.
Would love a series where you visit different gyms, train with and interview fighters.
It would really work.
Keep at it big Dawg
Need more of these mate
Idk how Guru fooled us into believing he was short, fat, and handicapped when in reality he's been a lanky chad this whole time. Dude's built like a young Undertaker 😂
Pretty sure he’s been saying he’s 6’3 since forever

Honestly proud of you dude. Been watching a long time and you’ve done really well for yourself. Keep it up bro
Original content, refreshingly different. Loved seeing these Africans behind the scenes. Got that underground feel to it.
this was actually way more entertaining than i thought it’d be 😭😭the commentary was fuckn funny
Hey guru l love your content. You are always such a good sport about taking BS from us in the chat and it makes your chat rooms hilarious and fun to be in. I've had multiple days where I've been down, and your commentary along with people in the chat have really made a difference for me. Well done! (Sorry for swanging so hard, I'm feeling greatful today)
sounds kinda ghey bro
😢😢😢
@@dee_j that's fair
all honestly man, ive been watching you for 5 plus years you look great guru good work dude!
The fact that your videos aren’t so manufactured makes them so much better! Enjoy the break, you deserve it!
Cameron definitely gained alot of new fans after your interview together. He seems like a really cool dude. Can’t wait to watch him fight next! You could tell he was trying to make you feel comfortable and wasn’t awkward at all. Only thing is I’m rooting for the underdog… Strickland but it’s gonna be a hard fight. I haven’t seen who is the Underdog/Favorite yet but I assume Dricus will be.
This was so good to watch! this made me like Cam and Dricus even more ! #Underrated
Awesome vlog, genuine and entertaining. Our boy is growing up
Awesome video been watching efc for awhile and it’s great to see this perspective of all of it
I now know why he never edits any of his videos
Yoooo African Guru! Thanks for this content man let’s gooooooooo
Cameron is a very good coach. I enjoyed this one! Great South African hospitality and well received from the mma guru.
Grreat video! Cameron is so nice😅. They seem very down to earth. Glad you have that experience. Thanks for the content. 😊
Must've been an honour to have Hap Chandler put on your boxing wraps
Good on you mate, wishing the growth of your channel the best
This is golden. Congratulations on this.
Guru I loved it and great editing. Just an all-around good feeling and fun video
"this guy denies the reality of my obesity. He will not be stopped by reality" lol The MMA GURU is a legend haha
Very nice vlog man really liked watching it!!
Nice! You walk your talk, that's why you're The MMA Guru! Respect, from your fan here in the Philippines!
Cameron Saaiman seems likean absolute bro. I will definitely be rooting for him in his next fights
Great content guru. Make this a habit. You're lucky you get to do this man.
The Saaiman podcast was excellent, great chemistry between you two. Would like to see another one, maybe Saaiman comes to UK?!
My left ear really enjoyed this mason
Dope video, you becoming the MMA journalist goat lowkey
Damn dude, loved this video. Would like to see you do another one like this at some point. I understand they are much harder to pull of them the regular content but dropping a video like this every once in a while would be slick
Once you lose about 15-20 more pounds you’ll have very good cardio at least for me I’m 6’2 and a half or 6’3 220 and my cardio is insanely good now. I use to weigh 500 pounds btw no joke I lost around 280 pounds
Keep going buddy
hell yea man love to see it
Blud gave multiple choice options for his height
some days when i feel like it i wake up at 6'2 but then on others days im feeling short so I'm 6'@@arcanum3882
respect man
Great content Guru, those guys really took you in and treat you well
Looking good mate, a truly inspirational character arc!
Cameron is such a cool dude
Yeha I get a grate vibe too
There's an Interview on Cameron's channel where Mark Hulme talks about the walk to Cape Town. It's pretty damn funny.
Epic story! Mad respect for Mark ❤
Great stuff, thanks
Hey Guru your videos are amazing👍you also have amazing fighting skills❤️much love and blessings.
Man, they really got prosthetics looking real in 2024 that's crazy.
Good to see Guru moving on up
Hands down the best MMA content creator in the game, absolutely mad to see where you've gotten based on where you started.
He'll be the best once he unfucks his audio situation in these training sessions
Real Talk you have the crown bro!
by FAR its not even close, also by far the best reactions and his impressions are so fkn funny I literally watch that shit every day lmao
Guru I’m so happy for you
What can people say now☺️
You made it dude
And you look great🤩
Thank you for letting us see all this amazing content from your trip and i really enjoyed it and I hope you do more and more if these trips and I knew you could throw down can't wait for you to box whoever and I think you have a dam good chance against alot of you tubers cos you have a pop on them punches guru fair play
He can walk again!!! He can walk again!!!! Im crying tears of joy, what a happy day!!!!😢😂🎉
good to see an expansion on gurus boxing ability since that video of him hitting the pool noodles
Bosspig and Cam - the friendship we never knew we needed, but now can't get enough of
This was great man. Glad to see you coming out of shell. Great group of people over there from the looks of it!
