Questions you guys should have asked: 1. How many UFC athletes actually use this facility? Is it always busy? When is it most busy? 2. Is everything in the facility free to UFC athletes? 3. Is transportation _to_ the facility free? 4. Is there a limit to how long athletes can use it? 5. When is the facility open? 24/7? 7 days a week? 6. Is the facility open to the regular public as well? 7. Which parts of the facility get the most use? Which parts get used the least? 8. Do you plan to build more of these facilities around the world? 9. Which UFC athletes are using it the most? Top-10 ones? Injured ones? Ones who train/live nearby?

It’s amazing how much the sport has grown to this.

Great to see how much physical therapy, proper training, and nutrition is promoted at the center. This center should be a wonderful resource for aspiring fighters to go to the next level. Hope corporate sponsors and hospitals will embrace the center. With the added corporate interests, more money should in theory flow back to the fighters. UFC is on track to catapult to that esteemed 5th sport. With Forrest's help and other agents, the stratosphere is the limit if the sport can stay real, raw, natural, instinctual and yet safe and professional. Sparta training for the 21st century. Get Gerard Butler to do a promo for the center to raise awareness if possible!!!!!

This is awesome and WTF is with the comments?!?!?!

What an amazing facility. Wish it was more convenient for fighters to take advantage of. But if you're doing the latter half of your fight camp AT the fight location that's primarily Vegas area. It's got ups and downs. Facility though is top of the line.

Is stuff like this accessible at UFC gyms? Also, an app that ties the fighters entire camp into one source would be cool. It would be awesome to eventually publish the data so that other people could see how their training plans compare with a pro fighter. The next wave of fighters are going to be monsters!

Grif over here absolutely DOMINATING the “conversation” 💪🏼

Thank you UFC! Great work!

I actually have been to this gym I been living in Las vegas my whole life it's an amazing gym not just made for famous fighters they train anyone

Love that Forrest wore flip flops and no socks to a televised tour of this flagship state of the art facility.

+Seeing most fighters cannot afford to go to Vegas to train or recover. Conor will probably use it when he trains in the U.S. and other big names with enough cash can afford to get all their coaches down there. Most fighters can use it during fight week if they are fighting aroumd Vegas. A lot of fighters also have regular jobs and it would be a massive expense to go to Vegas just to recover or train when they can do so locally.

I hate being one of those guys begging for Ariel in every video but that would've been more appropriate, or even Luke Thomas. I wonder if Ariel's beef with the UFC has put a strain on his ability to cover a lot of the different things the UFC offers.

well good luck to you-is this for the execs?

Building the P.I. was basically to have something more to offer a buyer prior to the sale of the UFC, as was the deal with Reebok & bringing in USADA. The building of the institute was likely a tax write off as well. Pretty sweet unit though.

That’s a great deal for $14 mil.

So much does the performance center cost to uphold, maintain, and staff? To the people saying pay their fighters more, if they divided it up evenly, amongst 400 fighters, they'd make just 35k more for one year. That's really not a lot.

14 Mill damn that's a steal

Mind blowing UFC

10:10 I can see why it cost so much. They have enough line array speakers on the ceiling for a huge outdoor concert. Complete overkill in that room and makes no sense!! They must have said "no budget, skies the limit" and all the contractors took full advantage.

anyone know if you can visit it for a tour?

You can tell it’s hard for Forest griffin to use his brain from all the head damage.

This is fighter's heaven.

If they pay for the fighters to fly out each time to go there then yes for sure this would be good otherwise I doubt many will utilize it. This is really good though. Free health care is important but we'll see how free it really is.

Woah, it’s Forrest Griffin

14M for a useless building that in my opinion most fighters wont use, just like ufc retreat building, 14M+ what ever the damn retreat costed could be used to pay the fighter more.. WME/ IMG is wasteing money that could go to the fighters

MY dream gym .. brought a tear to my eye.. wish i could be there.... one day . one it shall be all MINE!!! BUT hearing forest talk at end, seesm short sighted. talks about more regulation and doing what other sporst do.. if they do to much fo that all that will happen is mma turns corrupt like tkd and boxing ( due to too many officials and agencies involoved and no one governing them) or it ends up like point karate as safety is pushed too much.

Why don’t all fighters train here for every fight? Is it because they don’t wanna leave their current gym? Or they don’t wanna move to Vegas? I mean I can’t imagine a lot of fighters wanna share their game plan?

forrest griffin one of the best personalities of the game

It introduces the mma community to a variety of new training methods, methods of recovery, state of the art sports-science technology that they might've otherwise been ignorant of. This institute allows fighters and their coaches to have in view the full range of possibilities when training and conditioning the body, how they can find an edge over their opponents physically etc. It represents a concerted effort on behalf of the UFC to cut down on the overall amount of injuries experienced by fighters in addition to making weigh-cuts as easy as possible. Also, it's ideal for fighters coming from other parts of the world, having to leave all their resources behind, someone like Francis Ngannou for example. He can bring his coaches their and they'll absolutely everything they need at their fingertips.

if you build one in Tampa I want a job there.

Forrest is the science guy.

Probably mostly investor strategy to get regulators, sponsors, broadcasters, etc. to buy that it's safe and well run so they support and grow the sport. Otherwise, it's purely aspirational. Chit they both said it runs in the red. This isn't a college football team collected on a campus - these fighters live and train all over the world.

*And made with the fighters literal BLOOD MONEY*

The company sold for 4 billion. Fighters are now making 10+ million per fight. Dana White is the promoter/partial owner and worth 100's of millions. Heck, even the announcer Joe Rogan is worth many millions due to the popularity of the sport. How is this the most amazing facility with this size to so many athletes that compete in this sport.

Imagine if the 14 million dollars were averaged into the fighters salary. It's a good idea and concept but pay your fighters first.

This tour was kinda unprofessional. It seems just thrown together without much thought. Like first of all Marc is totally the wrong guy for this job, he's too subdued for this. However I was impressed Forest knew as much as he did, but his partner was a total none factor. None of the 'professional staff' where interviewed which would have really beefed the info side of things with the tour...like the Director of Physical Therapy (Olympic lady) they where hype about. Supposedly all the areas had trained staff on site, but none of them where on camera to better explain things. Expecting Forest and silent bob to know it all was a joke in this. I'm just not impressed by your performance. The facility itself was very nice, but seemed limited in some areas...like there was 1 Cryotherapy unit, 1 Hydrotherapy unit, 1 Hydro treadmill...I mean you have this huge facility with possibly 100's of athletes in there, and so you'd think 1 of these important pieces is not enough? I don't know maybe they're testing the waters here to see just how much the facility will be in use before expanding things, maybe building across the country. Overall the athletes should be thankful that the money is being spent on them rather then just going into pockets and paying off loans. I don't think the argument of 'the money should go to the athletes pockets' is wrong to say, but these shouldn't be mutually exclusive. They should build more facilities across the country and of course pay the athletes more. Hopefully all in due time.
