    As someone who experienced violence in the home, DDP went too far in making fun of trauma to a kid. It's scars a human to the core of their DNA. I got to respect Theo in how he handled the pain Shawn experienced.

    Dricus had to be seen in context though. Sean was dishing out about one clown guy whose dad molested him, he was dishing out how Dricus has sex with his male coach and all that. He was essentially saying whatever he wanted, so Dricus who is clearly not an intellectual and clearly thinks in Afrikaans and not English had to think about a comeback. Now when a guy is “grootbek” and insulting everyone else and going on about how they have sex with their dad and other men, then that guy is open to be taken down by any means. Dricus isn’t well spoken in English so he said the first thing that came to his mind in English and I believe it was fair play in the moment. I had a buddy who in Grade 5 was taken away from his parents because he stood up to his dad for his mom, his dad beat him up so bad that he was placed in a children’s home. That guy would NEVER insult other people, and if he went around saying what he wanted it would be fair to hit him where it hurts as well, even though he’s a close friend of mine I’d say in THAT case it’ll be fair play.

    I watched this interview. And cried. And every time I watch one of these shorts. I cry. Childhood trauma doesn’t leave. At some point we start crying for the little boy (that is us) who never had the opportunity to be a child. Who always had to be an adult. I don’t watch MMA, but this interview was great. Just a man allowing another man to be honest and feel his feelings, for Theo to just say, “I can sit here with you”. Sometimes that is the most powerful thing, someone who just acknowledges the pain you feel for the child who was you. The child that had to endure things, that no child should have to.
