This is by far the most touching ufc story ever told. I'm in the darkest place I have ever been in my life right now. But I know it will get better. R.I.P Josh & Troy.
We are all with you brother. Sending nothing but the best vibes your way. It will get better.
Wish you Strength brother
Hope everything will be well
I’m right there with you brother.. I am too in the same position as you.. and yes it will get better! 💪🏽✊🏽
I pray you get the strength you need brother 🙏. Don't ever give up
Josh Samman's story is like one of those movies you watch where you know the ending, but that still doesn't stop you from breaking down into tears. Man was just a lover in a cold, dark, unloving world.
I feel so bad for his mom. Losing a son I cannot imagine
Heartbreaking story, his book was a good read. Good to know his legacy is being carried on with the foundation.
This is insanely good. No sport can ever top mma!!
As someone who is going through the hardest part of my life , Losing my brother 2 months ago , Losing my girlfriend 4 days this year before x-mas , And my job , I wish I had an MMA gym close or some kind of outlet . I'm tired of using booze and oxy and morphine to kill my pain . I feel his pain and it relates to me more then I can even express . RIP Josh Samman
❤
Stay strong ❤️
God will set you free
Stay strong!!! ❤
Stay strong. one foot in front of the other. I lost my mom in 2022 dec 21. It was horrible. trauma like the attorney describes. She died of a fall. You got this. Im not gas lighting you either. We are all in hard times. Some dont know it.
One of the best mini docs i've ever watched. Absolutely heart wrenching. Crazy how you guys posted this as I am currently reading his book (ive seen the doc before). Also hope to know the song in the credits if anyone knows the name of it.
They will make a movie about his life one day. His story is a hidden gem and criminally unknown. Most fans today don't know who he was or how he died.
Josh has been a big inspiration to be a better human. Small acts make big waves
@@xpacnwo2000sadly I think this documentary is the pinnacle of his story. These over doses happen every day all over America. It’s 100x worse since Josh passed away because they introduced Fentanyl into the trafficking. All I know is it’s not making its way inside the USA on accident
I directed this film and I edited Josh's book. Appreciate the kind words. If I still have the music cue sheet on my hard drive, I'll let you know the song.
It was an absolutely incredible doc. First time I saw it I had to choke back my tears. You deserve all the awards for this piece. Was first introduced to Josh through the Ultimate Fighter and it's odd I remember exactly where I was when I watched him knock out Eddie Gordon (not sure why it always stuck in my mind). Also if you could find the music I would so greatly appreciate it.@@RoxEnt
One of the best documentaries I have ever seen. I always wondered what happened to this guy after the ultimate fighter. Such a shame great looking guy good fighter could have done anything. Rest in paradise brother ❤
Thank you for making this piece. I hadn't heard this story. It's heartbreaking.
One of the best pieces I've ever seen. Well done guys.
I’ve watched this 10x already This is too real and tragic
Great job on this one 👍 So sorry this happened, tragic and gone way too young 😢
Prayers n good wishes for all of you out there. I can relate... this is a powerful film. Thank you
Your story won't be forgotten. You're a good man.
just watching now, EVERYONE should see the Robert Follis UFC Chronicles episode. Phenomenal
Thanks for the recommendation, I’ll check it out
Awe man.. this is a great film. Well done!
Rest In Power Josh & Troy
UFC really stepping up their game as of late. “Year of the fighter” production is great and this Doc was really something. 👏
these are so well done
Very well made rip josh 🙏
Great episode. Very sad story but I hope it can help someone.
Man what a touching story. Definitely hits home. Best of luck to all of you guys over at combat night. Stay safe stay blessed 🙌🏼
Amazing stuff!
Can you imagine the friend that found both of his buddies OD’d on the ground. What a terrifying sight. Lots of lessons can be learned from this sad story.
Josh had an incredible support system around him.
Relax, we’re all going to die.- Tai Sheridan This quote always grounds me and eases my fear of the Universal Truth: my death and the death of everyone I know as well.
I remember watching his TUF series live. I wanted to see him vs Uriah Hall so bad 😢
As someone who's spent years using drugs from a teen to my 20's, having all sorts of problems that I didn't know how to deal with, and still struggle with, watching this was rough. Heartbreak, abandonment, neglect, more drugs, drugs, drugs; while feeling like that, and the anger/depression, shit. If you have people around you who care in a world where no one cares, I don't expect you to get better right away, but it helps when you have people who care. Especially if you have people who will listen. If no one will, I will.
My point of view of people taking substance is that they/their soul want's more out of life than whats given to them this time around. Regards /Incarnations...
@@iceKOId agree to disagree! This matrix is not for everyone. RIP Josh!
Amazing story my guy rip god bless all fighters amen and amen 🙏 from Sam Oates bideford and demi the dog
how sad !!!! remember watching him in ultimate fighter
Tragic and beautiful.
I’ve never been kicked in the ass by life as Ive been this last year. I feel weak hearing others struggles. 16:43 16:45 Just remember someone always has it worst. If it was easy and good all the time it wouldn’t be life, it’s a dream.
I’ve had a rough year too man. Not where I want to be. Making stupid mistakes, old bad habits. But I believe we can still fix it and have a better year. Let’s turn this around man. It’s not going to be easy but it can be done. Straight and narrow.
Another reason why broken homes and boys need a father
Anyone else get reminded of Pat Tillman when watching Josh? Please go watch the Documentary on Patrick Tillman if you haven’t…
I;m weeping like Strickland
Sometime life sucks
Life is a gift, and a curse. The gift was life coming into this world. The curse is what usually destroys us all one way or another.
💔💔💔
😭😭😭🙏
Well.... Damn...
RIP Josh. RIP Hailey.

Dude had quite the voice

UFC began USADA testing 2015 . Loss 12-4 Tim Boetsch TKO 2016 R2 Loss 12-3 Tamdan McCrory Submission 12/2015 R3 Win 12-2 Caio Magalhães Submission 7/2015 R1 Performance of the Night.
I remember seeing this guy on TUF, and thinking this guy is roiding 100%, now seeing his personality prone to addiction I believe his heart could not handle juice and opioids together.
The get high till you fight thing is a common place in MMA. A lot of people use fight camps as a way to car wash. A big name to put there is conor, another one is volk. Volk even says if he dont fight his mind goes. Whats that a sign of... Josh is a legend. He will never die. The trauma his friends went through finding him and his room mate. I hope the attorney is ok. He looks ok on his attorney profile. This is just a tragic story man. Edit just re watched and this is so full of trauma. Holy fuck. Hunter I hope you’re ok. Along with the other guys. Jesus Christ did Josh have a journey.
Samman was a gangster.

14:20 Haley had a heroin problem? Did I hear that right? They kinda just blurted that out and moved on.
Yeah she did, but was recovered and sober, but then died of a car accident

Moral of the story kids. Don't text and drive.
FAFO
All 3 of them. What a waste of young life.
He killed his girlfriend, since they were tex messaging 😮
Meh she wasn't 12 years old where you can say she wasn't responsible for her own actions. If I send you a text nit knowing where you are and you're driving and decide to read it and respond, it's your responsibility, not mine.
