The UFC pays truck drivers for Power Slap, but strike down content creators who promote their promotion/fighters.
embarrassing
Don't shit on us truck drivers
Fuck the UFC
crazy because kiiyon’s videos don’t violate fair use TOS… big corporations ruin individual expression
@@michaelbucca5653 RUclips bends the knee to big corporations that screw over small content creators like Kiiyon too
"When times are good be grateful, and in times like these be graceful"
Your personality is so genuine and warming, I believe the supporters will be here for you when you are ready. I know I will!
I will too amigo
Always
Couldn't have said it any better
Genuine and warming? Accusing his audience of being racist to try and go viral by virtue signalling and then being shocked when the audience stops watching him?
I went through this in my thirties, it was hell, but you will get through this, you are very smart, you will overcome this struggle.
Noo, dont say that. I turn 30 in August. When did it start getting better for you? I hope it has. 😭
100% agree
@@Kikibrat2 dont dread; just try to find fulfillment in a meaningful and driven lifestyle. also it helps if however you make your living isn't miserable. good things are on the horizon, never forget it!
As a new MMA content creator, you're one of the reasons I started making videos. You're a pillar of the MMA community and I hope you get out of this slump, my man. It takes a lot to be this vulnerable and I want nothing for success for you. 💪🏻🐐
Same. This man inspired me
That’s crazy I watch your vids all the time
Ey bro just know that's ok not to be ok, you took a brave step by accepting that. I've watched since I was kid man, I'm super proud you man
Ur English suks
Since you were a kid?
This channel is not even that old..
@@Hazy_Bubble he prolly was 17 now he is 20💀
@@xiangwong9137 😭😭😭😭😭
Kiyon - follow the example of Beige Frequency. He makes UFC videos without getting his videos struck down/demonitized. You can continue this, just don’t be inactive.
I feel you 100% on this man. I’m 35 years old and RUclips systems and horrible algorithm has forced me to pretty much abandon in my channel for the most part. I make almost nothing from this channel when it used to be my sole source of income. I had to get creative to remain self employed. I have a podcast with other creators that is Fan funded and now that’s my main source of income. MMA is a massive market, and I believe your content could be fan funded as well if to a larger degree. Or, perhaps, if you started a podcast alongside your Content. I feel like one thing that the MMA community is lacking is a podcast that is hilarious, so maybe partnering with a comedian. Just throwing some things out there. If you have to move on and this just becomes a hobby, that’s OK too. I really enjoy your content and wish you the very best.
Just make sure you partner with a GOOD comedian. We all know what happened with Bisping and Luis
That’s crazy I used to watch you
Damn man, havent seen u for years.
@@pmurph1 what happened
He called his entire audience and everyone who likes the sport racist in an attempt to virtue signal his way into going viral and then most of that audience stopped watching the loser who just called them racist. He killed his own channel (which is currently letting out a death rattle). It has nothing to do with algorithms or youtube being bad. We see he's posting videos. RUclips recommends them. We just say "ew, fuck that guy"...because he accused us of being racist so he could make money.
This is karma. It's a beautiful thing. Fucked around. Found out.
31 and currently in the same boat pretty much. The career I thought was going to be what I did for the rest of my professional life isn't panning out like I wanted it to unfortunately. I'm so broke that I'm using a generator to power my house right now because I couldn't pay my electric bill. Praying for you man. God bless you brother
I’m 30 and I am going through this now, even though I have a stable job and I’m really content with everything else, I just want more and I’ve been feeling insignificant and disappointed in myself. But the turn around is coming, it’s coming for all of us in this situation. You’re gonna make it bro, we all will. Chin up.
good luck. try and find something that allows you too excel and satisfies your need for more. for a random example, something like golf where you can work at it and consistently improve yourself over time through hard work.
Hey Kiiyon, you're amazing brother. I pray for you to make it through this tough time and I pray you keep things going because I'm a fan and I love the content.
But kiyon hates his fan
@@Samlevine111 No he doesn't.
You’re the guy who’s helped me get into mma and because of your videos I grew to love mma do whatever is best for you brother We’ll be here for you, and I truly mean this man life will be tough but I hope you’ll make it past this push past this slump and do what you love.
Brother, as a fellow Torontonian , 28 years old, i understand how you feel. This city is a rat race, always feel like you’re falling further and further behind. Properties costing over 1 M , it’s tough out here. Stay strong brother. I’m sorry you’re going through this , good luck man.
Nice man I live like 50 minutes from Toronto
Maybe open only fans to supliment your income
"This is a rat race but im no rat I'm a fucking turtle a ninja turtle so which ones your favourite I like michaelangleo"
So move nigga damn
Ye Toronto is a mess rn
God bless you bro. It's a knock down, but not a knock out. You've inspired me to start my own combat channel and I've been getting my equipment together. I'm finally ready and the first thing I thought of was that I want to also tie real talk into my content as well.
I'm 30, and at 27 I wasn't anywhere near as creative as you are, and I was WAAAY in the red. Take it easy and do what you gotta do bro. You will get it done. Love you. Take care.
We all struggle in life brother.
But only very few have the strength and courage to share their struggles to the entire world as you have done.
And that’s strength and courage that can be applied anywhere you want to apply it to!
Much respect and positive vibes to you Kiiyon 🙏
Keep your head high brother. You make really great content, don’t give up.
I just turned 30 and recently got laid off from a well paying job that decided to downsize. I’m starting over when I thought I had things already figured out. This video and comment section gives me relief to know I’m not the only one going through it. I’m not a failure. Neither are you. Keep grinding man. If your heart’s in the right place and you work hard everything should work itself out
Same thing happened to me in August of last year. I have a better job now making like 20K+ more per year. I have been listening to Michael Chandlers podcast for a few days and he has some really good words and good advice for getting your life together.
@@johncutie5769 Awesome bro, I'll definitely check his podcast out.
Let's all hug
Holy shit man so much respect for making this video, it must have taken a lot of courage. I hope making this video made you feel better and is a weight lifted off your chest
😂😂😂😂
You’re an amazing creator man. You’re gonna get through this tough spot. We love you brother. Make the content you love and I know personally I’ll be there.
Yo dude
Tough times happen to most. Some times are tougher than others.
I’m confident that you’ll navigate this tough stretch 👌
this sucks to hear man i've binged watched basically all of your "how good was" videos like u said it's what really got me into mma. i'm still gonna watch whatever videos u put out
Strong body is a strong mind. Ignore the noise
You shall prosper brother, keep going
yeah! Like Denzel, Rick Moranis, others too but these two are in a league with Keanu to me :D
Kiiyon, this usually happens to RUclipsrs and their careers. It’s a stressful job, even if you weren’t monetized. Hope you find the best out of life my dude. Find what really makes you happy and gives you purpose.
Stay strong man, your the goat
You got this, brother. I went through a 9 month phase like this when I was 25 and I know how this feels. It made me so appreciative of life when I finally made it through that. Wishing you the best and always appreciated your content. Can't wait to see what you do next.
First of all, make the content that you want to make and people will come, because you have a personality that makes people want to watch. You’re genuine, funny, positive, and personable. The algorithm is fucking you up more than anything since the strike I feel like, because I’m not someone who keeps up with a lot of specific channels but I watch all of your uploads. You’re very good at what you do and you’ll be alright
But, I have to say how comforting this all was to hear from someone else. My back got messed up in an accident a month ago, and suddenly I’ve just been stopped in my tracks. My life was chugging along and out of nowhere I’m not working, leaving the house, I’ve just been trapped on the couch healing. It’s forced me to reckon with myself and my life, and my flaws and my habits and my goals. And it’s been horrifying honestly. Really hard. Self esteem in the toilet, always tired, irritable, just straight up depressed. But at the same time with my brain screaming at me to get up and get out of this situation. But also telling me to slow down and focus instead of just burning my wheels out. So much I want to do, so much I have to do, no directions on how to navigate any of it. Your positivity is appreciated, your honesty is appreciated, you are appreciated and we’ll all figure this shit out somehow let’s go baby
@Ma Och And his hot takes made people unsub like mad, I still feel very disrupted even thinking about them now... He should have never shown his personality and subjective opinions - kept being a channel for "how good XYZ is" (which were subjective, but not full of polarizing opinions and were overall respectful). Everyone can have a bad time, tho.
Bro!!! I feel you so much here. I've been watching your videos for years man, almost feel like I know you. I've had to rebuild my life three times, no lie. Up and down like a roller coaster lol. Part of my ability to be successful every time I get knocked down, is completely due to staying positive, and working my ass off.
You are a diamond, and a lot of us wanna see you prosper. Things do always get better.
You have a really nice space there. Ever consider dressing up an area and getting a small squad together and starting a podcast? If you hustle hard you can probably get it up and off the ground in a month or so. Just sayin'. Haha.
Your knowledge of MMA and combat athletics is pretty vast. I dunno. Just an idea. Whatever you end up doing, stay faithful and trust the process. Love and respect dude.
Man, I’m sorry that you have to go through this, I will be praying for you kiiyon.
I love you man, you where a big part of what got me into mma and I'll always be thankful. I relate to the issues you are having right now and it feels good knowing I'm not alone. I can't wait to see you succeed in whatever you pursue in the future.
Hey bro, I been watching you for awhile now. It’s shitty because your content has only gotten better as time has passed. I’ll be a fan and sub no matter what u those to do bro! Keep your head up, never stop working. I was doing terrible last August, went ghost and had to rebuild myself from the ground up. It’s just now I’m starting to feel good again. All love ❤️
Setbacks r totally normal in life!
Hey Kiiyon, much respect for putting it all out here in this video. It takes courage to make a video like this. Sending you love and support along your new journey. We'll all be here waiting for your comeback. It must be tough going through the motions, but time will show that this did not happen TO you, it happened FOR you.
Take care bud
Brother!! Definitely don’t give up.!! I love your content. Your definitely gonna rise back up from this and I can’t wait to watch it!
This was incredibly brave to be able to be open about your emotions and your experience. Kiyon you’re the man you’re got a lifelong supporter out of me
I've been watching you for years man and I ain't going anywhere! You're so genuine and it's something I admire about you greatly in your content! Keep going!
Sorry to hear about the struggles Kiyon. Growing pains are a part of life and every channel has to evolve with its creators. You have a good head on your shoulders and I'm confident you'll be successful no matter what you pursue. Good luck to you!
We're here for you, Kyon. You can upload anything and we'll watch it.
You won’t tho. That’s the whole point of this post. Not very many people are watching anymore.
@@SleeplessSpecter yea this video made me realize the last month I haven’t watched him at all. Not seeing him on my algorithm past March.
He start calling mma fans racist lately. Done with this victim.
Take all the time you need and do what's best for you man. Mental health always comes first. The real fans will support you no matter what you do
Keep doing you Kiiyon I for one will be here to watch it. I’ve given your channel to many people trying to get into mma especially the how good were theys. Hope you can find the career path for you and still find a way to provide the education and entertainment for us
I'm in a similar situation brother, a couple months late on rent and in between jobs....shit sucks. You said it right though, got to keep trucking forward and can't stop to feel sorry for yourself because the world is cold and doesn't care. You'll be good man because I can see you already have the right mentality. I would say just keep playing with different ideas when it comes to your channel, like some type of documentary style video without the use of copyrighted footage (like a MixedMollyWhoppery type of thing going on). You'll be straight bro, stay solid you'll pull through.
I hear the local 7/11’s hiring
Love your videos, take care of yourself man. I hope things get better soon.
whatever decision you make, you’ll be alright
Bro I’m 27 too and everything you just described was how I felt a few years ago. Down to the feeling of helplessness and dread of starting over at square one.
What changed everything for me was getting into the trades, specifically the electrical industry. In 2 years I acquired skills that now make me very valuable and in DEMAND. I don’t know if that’s your cup of tea but I highly recommend you give it a shot you never know you just might love it. Hang in there brotha the sun always comes back up :D
Bro, big fan of the channel. Although our situations are completely different, just know you are not alone and so many of us are going through it right now. Peace bro.
Stay strong bro you the man 💪
bro hope everything gets better I’m going through a lot of things personally myself your gonna get through it your a great person keep your head high brother
man your 'How Good" series really helped reintroduce me into MMA a few years ago and I will always appreciate that.
Rough that you're going through this right now but you have the right mindset. It's good that you appreciate what you do have and are trying to do the best you can with the situation you're in. I wasn't really a fan of you (just neutral) I've been more a fan of your content. But this made me a fan of you as a person. Before watching this video I would have stopped watching you if you didn't make MMA content but going forward I'll support whatever videos you make
Name one person who’s not struggling
Honestly I love ur honesty in this video being honest about how I just made these daily mma videos for money being honest with urself is the first step in the bettering process u got this man life has its ups and downs this is just an obstacle that you will overcome
100%! Keep grinding and follow your heart with a clear head.
You’re the man Kiyon!! We’re all pulling for you - you’ll get through this buddy❤
Just want you to know I hear your words and am inspired by them. I’m rooting for you kiyon
Wishing you the best of luck. It's not good to hear that you are struggling but at least you got a community that you can share it. I believe things gonna be okay for you.
Serves you right, I hope you get comfortable in your struggle.
I’ve been hopeful since the how good run kind of ended that you would still find another avenue. I hope you the best and I’m still here for you. I’m basically in a 6-2:30 or 3:30 job and have settled into a decent company… the silver lining and the reason I’ll stick it out is I finally will get a pension from this so I’m sticking it out . I hope you the best!!!!!
Shoot for the double leg.
Love your content for a few years now. I'm sorry to hear about your situation.
You have a great attitude and things will turn around.
The last five years has been shit for me. It is what it is.
I'm reinventing myself and staying positive.
Here's a quote that I've turned to over and over again. I hope that it can help you.
"Every adversity, every failure, every heartache carries with it the seed of an equal or greater benefit."
Napoleon Hill
I'm 49yrs old. You can turn everything around. I'm not giving up.
Hang in there, Kiiyon. Your heart is in the right place. Great content and a big heart to boot. Appreciate the honesty and showing yourself being vulnerable. 🤙🏼
Hey Kiyon, appreciate you sharing with us what you are going through and I can say alot of are on the same boat. I got married, had a family and was still not sure what I was going to do in life and this was really frustrating because we only want to be able to provide our families the best quality of life and time possible. No matter what you end up doing bro I would say knowing your purpose in life and having a spouse who shares the same goals and values as you is really important because that will help you guys be content in life and be on the same page. So it doesnt matter what you end up taking as a job or career as long as you go out there and do your best and look after your family then its no one else's business. The grass is always green where you water it . Keep your head up and keep it moving dont stand still for no one.
In my prayers god shall make you storm through the struggle and you will be able to rise from the negative
Damn can't believe the UFC would do this. These videos help keep my interest in the UFC.
Ngl without shaking things up, i stop buying PPVs
You've got talent man. And that will translate into any field that you're involved in. I know you will have great success.
Bro, everyone is hurting right now. The world is a dick.
In the words of Joe Dirt: "Keep on keepin' on", Kiiyon.
Your videos aren't appreciated by just longtime/diehard fans. Your content helps newer fans to really immerse themselves in the sport. You're an MMA legend in your own right, my dude.
Great vid man, everyone goes through struggle. Good to see you still have gratitude. You’ll get through it
Bro im glad youre not stopping the content you make, its a breath of fresh air compared to all the other dime a dozen mma channels
We love you bro u do you
The fact that you pointed a camera at yourself and talked intelligently off the top of your head for 14 minutes is a skill in itself.
I appreciate your content mate!!! Hope you can keep pushing through
You’ll get through this. Appreciate you & your content.
as they say: tough times entails pressure, & immense pressure makes diamonds. stay strong Kiiyon. Youre a phenomenal talent
We are with you Kiiyon. Love your videos. The mma world is made better by your voice and your take. Best of luck in figuring out the next stage man.
Keep your head up g thanks for the videos hoped you lived it up to the fullest while it lasted but this is NOT the end 🤝
Wait til this guy finds out hes gonna have to get a job again like a normal person 😂😂😂
Why would you expect the ufc, or the mma community in general, to allow you to have a career when you have such a lack of respect for them. You called everyone racist for crying out loud 😂
Always love the content regardless, you’re an awesome dude keep trucking you’ve got this!
You got this man! Keep creating content. You’re good at it!
man is off the roids
You’re an inspiration bro. Trust me homie. You’ll ascend like a phoenix. Consider the following:
1. You gained followers and generated views once … why can’t you do it again? You have a winsome personality and the right mindset.
2. Be open to different forms of content like live streaming (you can make money through donations), reaction videos, and even the type of content you mentioned - about life and self improvement.
3. Consider tech bro. Consider coding, QA testing, data analytics.
I turn 30 next month and I’m in a similar spot bro. So I feel you. You’re inspiration to us all. And we’re all gonna make it together 💪
Im struggling too bro, don’t give up.
Kiiyon, my man! Cheer up. The year was 2018 and I RANDOMLY came across MMA and combat sports. I’ve spent hours at a stretch watching your videos. Trust me, I’ve probably seen every single video of your’s. I’m grateful for all the content you make and I sincerely hope you feel better and that you overcome all these adversities. Cheer up. Feel better. Always rooting for you. ❤️
Kiyon, you’ve consistently had some of the best takes of any MMA channel on RUclips. Impartial and unbiased yet analytical and insightful. Take as much time as you need brother, take care of yourself, we’ll still be here, you’re one of the best in the game🔥
ever since you race baited you re views took a big hit
Thank you Kiiyon for all the efforts you’ve made and still make , I’ve been watching mma sience i was a kid and every time i want some nostalgia i turn to your how good videos , Greetings and much respect from Romania , I hope this gets sorted out and you get a respectful pay for your work
I'm so sorry to hear about your situation man. I loved your how good actually videos and I felt like they were transformative enough.
I wish you nothing but the best man.
I do care.
Hey just a crazy idea maybe don’t call MMA fans racist just for liking certain fighters and not liking others. I know personally I unsubbed after that video and though I tried to keep watching I just couldn’t stomach it anymore. Karma is a bitch.
Same.
I’ve been watching your channel for awhile now and enjoy your content. These have been tough times for everyone out there and it doesn’t seem to be getting better for most. But keep up the good fight. It’s good you have a positive attitude still, despite all that’s happened. Hope the best comes from whatever’s next for you.
Keep your head up brother, you’ll make it through 👍🏼 take care and hope everything turns out well
Cya bro after that race vid u made u fell off
Keep on making music you can profit from that and your music is really good
Your videos helped get me into this sport. Stay strong and keep your head up, brother. Don't sell yourself short. Your shit is well made.
You're amazing bro keep your head up!!
How good was kiyon kimura actually
Not very
Get a job like the rest of us
I hope things get better. Love your content
Bro this youtube shit cant be taken for granted. One day u can be on the top and the other u can right back down to the bottom. Hope you get past this tough time kyon, really enjoy your content
Dang I quit watching the channel when kiiyon brought up race I just saw mma guru’s video on this. Shouldn’t have brought race into it. Good luck with your future job hunts, hope everything works out for ya.
Serves his racist ass right
