UFC fighters aren't paid enough to throw away money like that in the first place, add things like physical therapy and various medical expenses, fight camp expenses, staff expenses etc. and after those are concluded even those fighters on the top of the roster end up having only decent money, nothing extraordinary. Most are barely making it by. Although I guess Jiři does have his own way of solitary training but there's no way he doesn't spar, doesn't go throught fight camp at all. And he does get hit a lot with his style, it's a miracle that he's so eloquent still and able to talk about consciousness and stuff like that

True, they are way under paid.. As a Martial Artist, I definitely would not want to make a living as a fighter, its a dead end street for the most part lol..

But the point of the video is that he is anti what Society tells us what it takes to be Happy and Successful, which is a message that is needed to be heard more often by ppl that are there and living it!
