A man that every good father can admire. The love for his family and the dedication to give his daughter a better life can bring you to tears
It did 😢
The last scene was heart-wrenching/warming at the same time.
It definitely did….
How can you not be a fan of Chito after watching this? It’s not even possible.
A good father that every man can admire. More like it.
This is probably the best backstory of any fighter ive seen ever. This guy is so inspirational and im 100% rooting for him on saturday
Francis thoughhhh
@@alcoholocaust7 his isn't nearly as touching I'm not even a father but can say I was tearing up hearing his goals for his daughter! Any father probably knows how he feels even more!
@@alcoholocaust7 nope. Doesn’t even compare
@@alcoholocaust7 no chance that compares.
LFG! It’s the Chito show
This made me cry. Respect to Chito. He’s a real man. I named my rescue chihuahua after him. 🙌🏻🙏🏻
I like it
I had also named my dog after him ...
Lmfao
He ain't Mexican bro
@@moodycxnt yea and what about it ?
My son also has Mobius Syndrome and I couldn't be more happy that it is finally getting some attention in media!! Love Chito and his beautiful family. Just showed this video to my wife and we're literally in tears. The experience Chito and his family went through is the same as ours. We also moved countries for our son and face the same challenges. The most beautiful thing about my son is also his smile - something we tell him every day.
Good on you mate, I'm glad your son has a great father that really cares and is willing to put in work for him. Wish you, your wife and your little man all the best from here in Aus.
You’re the man dude hell yeah lol. Always remember that the loudest boo’s come from the cheapest seats. Hate always comes from below. 💯
Incredible 🤲🏼🤲🏼🤲🏼❤️
Wishing you nothing but the best to you and your family brother
My 2 year old has Autism and sometimes I blame myself, I don't know why but I wish I could do more. It's not the same, but I can relate to an extent what it's like to have a child with a disability. I know it's nothing nearly as severe, but I know what that helpless feeling is like to sit there and look at your child and wish you could have or could do more to help them live a normal life. Much love to anyone with kids who go through something like this, you aren't alone and your hard work as a parent will always be cherished by your kids.
A good man always puts his family first. What a fighter and what a father, all the respect to Chito and hopefully he can become a champion and provide financial stability for his family.
@@beaualoevv get a job troll
@@beaualoevv mma fraud guru has the most incel troll goblin viewers on the planet you're an example of market he attracts straight human trash
@@beaualoevv we’re smoking that sandpaper pack after that clown Cory gets popped🫵🏻🤣
@@beaualoevv Cory is a great fighter but I’d be shocked if he smokes Chito
@@beaualoevv Cory has about one round to catch Chito.. since he is a slow starter, if he doesnt do anything to Chito in round 1... Cory getting SMOKED
As a father I can tell you this I’m crying like a baby watching this. We knew the story but to see it all in a video is a stunner. Chito gonna be a champ soon!
Me too mane. I got buggers n shit. Not cool but worth it
Same 😭
Man it was tough to hold ‘em back. Love chito even more now
nah cory finna turn his daughters goofy smile into tears 💀
@@karv7224 ok beta boy 🤡
Who's here for chito to win the belt this weekend!?
As someone who doesn’t have children and won’t be, this is a beautiful story. What a great human being and father. I’m rooting for him on Saturday!
Me too man
I’m glad Chito is finally getting the recognition he deserves, praying his daughters will finally smile with all Chito’s success❤
I’m in a waterfall of tears here man… this shit was beautiful. I was torn on who I wanted to win this weekend because I had no horse in the race but I can confidently say every single time Chito fights I’m tuning in. This man is an inspiration, and good ass dude. Big love Chito
We all are 😭😭
Nah just you sensitive fucks
Same man... what a story...😢
Damn it fuckin got me too
I’m a 32yr old man an I haven’t teared up this much in awhile, chito is a real one man 💯
Got me crying and shit. Good luck this Saturday Chito. Mexico is with you bro
I'm as old as chito and absolutely want that man to get all the glory he can. He's a bad man who lives the right way. Goodluck chito!!
Talk about an inspirational story...I'm a father and this piece almost had me in tears.
I'm not even a father and this had me watering up
Me too. My baby girl is 20 but she will always be my baby tho
@@slicksilver9441 I hear you bud! 🍻
Me too dude. I’m staring at my 1 year old son right now realizing how much I have to be grateful for
He’s a real man respect
I'm so glad the UFC decided to highlight his story, I have heard it in different places little bits here and there but to hear his whole story brought me to tears... He popped on my radar after his fight against O'Malley, and since then I was curious of the reason that he was so aggressive, now I know this man is driven by love and need, no wonder he just tearing through a shark tank of a division.
He’s an amazing person
This man makes me immensely proud to be Ecuadorian. His motivation, drive, and hunger are inspiring to say the least. Ecuador loves you, Chito!!
Chito is the man, I started watching MMA right when he entered the UFC. Heart of gold and shins of steel, dude will be champion.
Now I really wish to see Chito as Champion just to see his daughter's smile even more. Lots of respect to him and his family. Rooting for you Chito. Let's go !!!
God bless you and your family brotha… your a great dad. And your daughter has a very beautiful smile…
I want Chito to take the division. He's the man.
A Family Man. Fighter that is selfless. It's Great to know he fights for a better Life. Pure Heart. Proud of his Faith.
wont lie, wasn't a chito fan previously but seeing him emotional after that win won me over and especially the love he has for his kids & especially his daughter. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
This video just made every father who sees it a Chito fan
Facts. I am more of a fan now, for sure. I wish he KOs O'Malley.
Chito is a great fighter but even a better father! I’m rooting for you and your amazing daughter always!! ❤
Absolutely love Chito. Such an honorable man.
Wow how did I never know about this? As a father, I teared up the entire video. This man has inspired me in so many ways. Thank you UFC and Chito Vera for sharing this story with us fans. You sir, are an inspiration to us all.
You're the man Chito. You gained my heart and eternal respect. We love you.
Chito is one of a kind 🇪🇨🔥
I hope he’s gets everything he wishes for her, great guy, much respect Chito, father’s should always be there for their family and put them above all else.
I literally haven’t cried in probably 3 years. And this… yeah this definitely made a few tears fall 😢❤❤ such a beautiful story, such a beautiful family, such a killer for all the right reasons. I pray to God he becomes champ and soon!!!!
God is nothing, but I agree Chito is elite and has the potential to be a dominant champion for a long time.
God bless Chito and his beautiful family ❤️ Such an amazing story 🙏 And same here, I literally haven’t cried like this in years! Kept trying to hold back tears over and over, this hit me hard 😢🥲
How can you not love this guy
Es un gran ejemplo la historia de chito, espero que llegue a ser campeón 🙌
My family is from Peru, I've been to Ecuador (Guayaquil and Quito) twice because I have family living there as well. I've told every Ecuadorian I've met in NYC that I love their hunger to succeed. They hate being ordinary people, and they will literally be Stubborn as hell to get where they want to be. I feel Peruvians are the same, that's why we've bumped heads in the past lol. I have a great admiration for Ecuadorians and it's refreshing to see their flag waving in the air on the way to the Octagon, making their South American brothers proud. ✊🇪🇨 Rooting for you bro.
Wow, I didn't know his back story. That was excellent. Chito is one helluva fighter, but by God, he is one of the very best fathers, one of a kind!!! I loved that story.
Love Chito man ❤ what outstanding humans he and his family are.
I'm a father and fighter from New Zealand, this made me cry like a good man should.. Mr Vera, mrs vera and whanau Respect, love and happiness . Keep fighting you have more reach than you know 💙
Damn this is emotional. I’m a huge chito fan from here on out ❤ I pray to god she has a beautiful full long life and brightens everyone’s day she meets.
Yes, he definitely just won me over .
Ok, so this guy just became my favorite fighter. Not only because I mean, cmon, he’s a beast, but also because of how hard he’s fighting for his family and how selfless he is.
UFC needs to pay fighters more. Chito!!!! Que grande eres!!!!!
This is the epitome of fatherhood's unconditional love - GOD bless your career and family Chito 🙏
I Really Hope Chito Becomes CHAMP on March 9th, thi guy is a real mean who puts his family first
I never thought i would cry over a UFC video...My respect
Have you not seen the promos for the Ultimate Slap Fighting Championship yet? That's some sad shit there, this one guy owed a loan shark 2,500.00 for a gambling debt, and his opponent owed 40k in child support
I loved Chito before seeing this. Now I'm in awe of him.
This man deserves every respect in the world. He does everything for his family and he has achieved his goal and I'm so happy to see it. I congratulate him and his family from the bottom of my heart. I hope one day he can put the belt in his daughter's arms.
Already liked chito... But now I love him.... What a story man. There story is so much bigger than just being a fighter.... Amazing father chito and a amazing wife and kids.
Admirable, he's a gangster but has a good heart
Chito got me crying and shit
I hope nothing but greatness for him and his family! One of my favorite fighters on the roster both in and out of the octagon!
Wow. So touching. I’m not crying, you’re crying. God Bless his daughter!
That’s awesome man. I like him even more now. Keep praying brother. Praise God!
Wow right as I was going to bed I began crying. What a man Chito is. Every father should look up to what he has done to his family. Amazing. Chito I’m rooting for you.
Behind every Daughter Smile, There's a Very Tough Father behind the Back
It's inspiring what a parent will do for their kids both Mothers and Fathers who are in their kids lives they'll really move boulders
What a OG!!! Definitely one of the baddest men in the UFC. Big fan. Good man, father, and husband. Doesn’t take anything for granted! Warrior!
Chito, you just gained a lifetime fan. Not for just being a fighter but an amazing father. Your daughter is so beautiful.
As a father of 6 kids, 4 of them daughters, I just became the biggest Chito Vera fan. I was a fan before, but now, wow!
Everybody give a round of applause for this lethal fighter and most importantly a wonderful man that every man and boy should strive to want and be.
A defeat does not mark the end of a career, it will come back stronger, Chito Vera!☝🏼🇪🇨
Chito...wow.this brought tears to my face. Your the best father anyone could be. ❤
Give this man his title shot . He cleaned out the division and still getting robbed. Hope this changes after this weekend. Marlon "Chito" Vera all the way 🔥🔥
Something about a fighter fighting for something a lot bigger than themselves, specially an illness of a loved one, really puts a spark inside me 🥊
So happy this first episode is on Chito. The man cares so much about his family, can only wish him the best. Great show UFC you guys are killing it !
Que gran historia la de la familia de Chito.. por eso estoy seguro que vas a llegar a ser campeón de la UFC y vas a traer ese cinturón a Ecuador cómo un día lo dijiste.. grande CHITO saludos desde Ecuador

We can't but cheering CHITO after watching this beautiful story. I can't wait to see his daughter's smile after the win.

As a father, I felt Chito's pain going through that situation. It's never easy for everyone seeing your child go through something very difficult. Hats off to Chito. Bless you and your family. 🥹
We need more fathers like you! ❤
What a beautiful man. Much respect for Marlon and his family.
My dad works for the UFC and gave me the opportunity to talk to chito Vera and the last thing I told was to go get that belt, I hope he gets it done one day 🇪🇨
I never knew this about Chito. It's heart breaking to even know this daughter went through stuff like that, but what amazed me, this guy did it for his family. Stray strong and bless 🙏

Im cry😭😭 chito.... we love you so much
Inspirational fighter and man. If you can shut the world out for a moment and listen to people, you will relate, find empathy and be inspired. BYM, we love you Chito! Beautiful
Men this guy was one of my favorite fighters, but seeing his story and what an honorable man he is, makes him my all time favorite fighter ! what a guy ! I think his story and his inspiration makes him the most dangerous fighter in the UFC ! Love for this guy
Fawk man I am in tears. His daughter's reaction when he told her his favorite thing about her was her smile jesus that hit me right in the heart. I would go to hell and back for my little girl. This guy is going to be dangerous.
My heart and prayers go out for chito and his family! This makes me appreciate the little things In life we all take for granted. This man deserves everything he has and more.
Bin mega beeindruckt von deinem Vater sein❤ ich wünsche dir und deine Familie Weiter hin viel glück. 🍀
How can you not love Chito. I wish the ufc did more stories on fighter lives like this. It really makes you like the fighters more; the more you learn.
I’m at work tearing up on my lunch break. Hope he wins
Wow, I loved Marlon already, but I've just gained a whole new respect for the man. This was an amazing piece to share.
This is so heartfelt. respect to Chito.
Man Chito is just different 💯, he has that mentality that you can't teach and very few fighters have it, and that puts him above someone of his same skills or even better.
FUTURE CHAMP CHITO🔥🔥
What a touching story... I cried literally like a child... Chito is one of the best role models as a father and person... Her daughter is a blessing to him who made him what he is today... so much love and respect.
Beautiful story🤙🏽 Chito’s one of the best Dad’s in the planet
I have never wanted to see someone succeed so bad in all my life. GO CHITO!!!!!!!!!! 😊😊🙏
All my respect for you, chito, guerrero latino, greetings from El Salvador 💪
Truly someone who deserves every inch of success he’s earned over the years. A lot of ppl say they’re willing to do everything for their loved ones and he really did it. He gave everything just to see his daughter smile
Im not crying just sweating from the eyes
What an inspiring story Chito. You are a blessing and inspiration to us all. This clip alone inspires all of us men who have children. I know it’s not easy becoming who you are, but no matter what you are already so much more than a champion. You are a vessel of G-ds spirit. I couldn’t help but tear up, especially at the last part of your daughter kissing you on the cheek. What a special story you’ve shared with us. Thank you 🙏🏻
