Who’s Actually the Smart One? | TFATK Ep. 1156

On this episode of The Fighter and The Kid, the guys break down why real competition is disappearing and why that mindset would never survive in fighting. From youth sports and pay-to-play systems to discipline, pressure, and toughness, the conversation turns into a blunt discussion about how fighters are built differently and why you can’t fake competition. Using examples from sports, training, and life, they explain why struggle matters, why comfort creates weakness, and why old-school mentalities still dominate in MMA and comedy.
