Need Megan doing these interviews more, a lot better than no charisma brett
Facts
Megan works for the UFC, while Brett works for ESPN MMA.....and he just signed a new contract to do those pre-fight sitdown interviews for a long time to come
Much better to look at than Brett as well 😂
yeh Okamoto is about as interesting as a cardboard box
I feel bad saying it but it seems like Brett tries too hard to be cool.
Babe wake up new Chito skin just dropped
🤣
🥇
Based comment
I love this man's attitude. No bullshit. Just go in there are put in work🙌🏾 everything will come around full circle
He does testosterone man
@@Ben-pz9mo your hating again
@@brightBoss in not hating... That man is on testosterone. He will pop. I feel bad for everyone he fights. They need to protect these fighters better from people like chito
@@Ben-pz9mo lmao 🤣 but how do you know for a fact that he's on juice 🤷🏾♂️
Chito: I'll give up everything to get what I want. Megan: What do you want? Chito: Everything.
I love Chito's outlook on life. His approach to competition with the acceptance of the possibility of loss is beautiful. Let's go Chito! I'd love to see you win that belt and defend it successfully.
Vamos Chito todo la comunidad latino te apoyo
There is no such 'latin community'
Latino heat
What's a latino?
Look it up
Taco taco, burrito burrito...
Him and Oliveira are my favorite fighters right now. Can't think of two guys more game in the UFC
Same
"Right now." Because they're both on winning streaks. What happens when they lose a couple? Just find the next guy who happens to be on a streak?
@@captainbuzzkill4658 🤓
@@captainbuzzkill4658 appropriate name
@@captainbuzzkill4658 Well you certainly are a buzzkill aren't you?
Been a fan of Chito for so long.. it's so cool to see him in the top 5. I remember the first time I saw Chito he head kicked KO'd a dude in the 3rd round after losing the first 2 rounds and it was the guys retirement fight. Chito was so respectful afterwards, but said he's gotta do what he's gotta do for his family. Love this guy
that was the first chito fight i saw too. it was versus brad pickett sick finish
Same here big fan of him. I want him to be champion and I won’t be surprised if he is but it’s going to be hard for him to be Cory. If he does then yes he will be champ.
YO SAME
He’s a fluke winner and sore loser, refused to shake song ya dongs hand after a split decision loss
@@ryanrich7133 he's human.
Chito Vera what a fighter and a cool person. Definitely excited for his future.
@@beaualIoevv always those haters that got disowned by there parents that hate LMAO grow up chito is young and he fights anyone they give him he dgaf
@@beaualIoevv You're a mad guy often huh? You're on multiple different videos insulting several great fighters for no reason. Does it feel bad you get destroyed by average locals and can't beat anyone? Go to your local gym and keep the same energy You'd be on a stretcher begging for help inside of 10 seconds ☠️
@@baby-joker9514 this dude goes around saying shit like this to stir shit up. Don't pay him amy mind. I've seen his comments a few times over the last few months. Literally always has something disrespectful to say.
Chito is so 100. philosopher at heart
I love watching this guy fight, and I love listening to him talk. Hoping he gets his title shot soon
I’m so happy he’s getting the recognition now. Dude is so tough. I won’t be surprised if he’s champion soon. Going to be hard to get through Cory though. Best division in the UFC right now for sure
Chito no solo inspira a los ecuatorianos o prospectos de peleadores en Latinoamérica. Siento que Chito es un ejemplo de vida para cualquier persona que lo siga. Él me enseñó que la vida es como una carrera de fondo interminable. Tu constancia, tus sacrificios y la forma como te comportas definen qué tan lejos puedes llegar, y estoy seguro que el va llegar a ser campeón y va ser un referente para el deporte, no solo la UFC.
El ejemplo a seguir es la vida de mi papa. Sacrificó muchisimo mas de lo que te imaginás. Veo que el chito hace lo que muchos hacen. Es un tipo normal con una carrera decente en los combates. Pero no veo que sea una persona extraordinaria. Te pasaste mi chero. Te la tragás enterita como muchos que juran que el es grandioso. Y solo por que habla español no significa que el me represente. Pero bueno, le deseo mucho exito. Mi mensaje para el, se orgullozo pero no arrogante.
@@emersonr7481 tu tines tu opinion la respetamos, tambien respeta la opinion de los demas punto
Well said
God Dang !!! How can you dislike Chito He's keeping real
“It’s always for you if you really want it” hit me right in the mfn feels bro
Facts!
Ecuador is supporting Chito everytime and he is making us really proud! First ecuadorian champion for sure!
No way he beats Aljo, Yan, TJ, Merab, and Cory. Unless those guys leave 135 it ain’t happening
Esparza is part Ecuadorian lol
@@user-zo4iz2nv5u bro stop please :'D
@@SlipperyMooseCakes she has ancestey, she is not ecuadorian.
@@user-zo4iz2nv5u people said the same thing when he fought font and cruz! He still has to improve but he has been improving in every single fight plus his drive to get the belt, he will be champion no doubt!
He'll be champ. He's a thoroughbred. Mark my words. Thanks for the interview
Not just an amazing fighter, but an incredible human being. All the right messages = all the respect to him.
22:34 is a classic moment of returning to a no shame farm life style-interviewer heart-fully smiled-🎉good moment for what it’s worth
Acá en Ecuador te amamos Chito 🇪🇨🇪🇨🇪🇨
Chito is the man! It’s so easy to root for this guy! He has such an inspirational story and he’s always super down to earth and extremely relatable! Dude is also a savage in the cage! I hope we see him win the title soon.
Been a fan of chito every since he was on tuf. Such a humble guy.
Chito is the most interesting Bantamweight. I’d like to see him and Suga O’Malley in another fight
O'Malley don't want non with Chito again , but props to O'Malley for taking the Yan fight
@@drunkenmmamaster419 🤡🤡
Na bro ur trippin chito will smoke Sean 100%
It will come. Maybe next year. But it will come. Mark my words.
So under rated. I still don't think people realize how good chito is.
Chito will be champ soon. He the real deal and is a stone cold killer, keep doubting him and he will keep proving every doubter wrong.
Chito is a boss man. Win or lose this guy is one of my fave fighters
Chito is the man! very inspiring and wise words from the future champ.
Chito your a legend and an inspiration for all of Latin America !💪🏽💪🏽💯
Latin America? He's an inspiration for all of the people in this entire world!

Megan is such a great interviewer, clearly knows her stuff and is very personable. Sports need more people like her, Formula Drift especially.

An inspiration. I hope to have half of his confidence and mentality sooner than later.

Chito 🇪🇨💪🏻🔥
There’s a handful of peeps including Megan who do good interviews we need more of that
I have the biggest respect for this man, he’s no doubt the champion, it’s close and i cant wait to cheer for him! One of my favorite fighters and human beings, this guy has it all. The belt is close keep fucking smashing these fools Chito!!
true Champion of Life...
I want more Megan
Vamos Chito 🎉❤
Awesome personality
Megan and Chito are a dream couple
I wasn’t a big Vera fan before, but I’m rooting for him now…even if he’s half the guy he speaks of being (more Seems like being…) then I’m in. I also suspect if and when he trips, gravity may adjust in his direction. Buena suerte hermano
Great interview. Yea, vs Sterling next
chito is the best all love.
Let's go Chito you are the man
Chito traenos ese cinturón al país 🇪🇨y a latino america🌟🎉yo sé que puedes
