    Nope...but I'll predict he won't have more than a couple of fights. White's theory of being a good fighter bc of his basketball skills.....well that would mean Tank Abbott could have played in the NBA.

    As a person that suffers from depression and anxiety, has for years, takes meds to deal with both, spends his precious time and money to go to therapy, and tries to overcome it by whatever means even after all sorts of setbacks and losses, let me be the first to say...

    **** ROYCE WHITE.

    Everything about the guy makes me sick. The fact that this spoiled jackass tried to stand up as some sort of spokesperson for a huge community of people actually suffering terribly day-to-day makes me doubly sick.

    I hope he gets absolutely destroyed in his new endeavor. #BeatHimWell

    This is ironic. His career ending problem was anxiety and he is going to become an MMA fighter?! Think about that.

    Seriously cant get over how this kid couldn't get over his fear of flying to make millions playing a game.

    Lord have mercy if I was born into that body...

    I've always heard that nothing is better for mental health than getting your brain rattled. This should work out well...

    This POS is something else... he's clearly pulling another con here.

    How many of you caught the title of his upcoming book?

    MMA x NBA: A Critique of Modern Sport

    Bang Bus is simply hitching a free ride on the current wave of "we must neuter all high-testosterone, high-impact sports!" He wants (so badly) to be the insider whistleblower against these oppressive Roman 'circus' leagues trafficking in slavery, violence, and toxic masculinity. He doesn't give a crap about any of these causes. Royce White is only about Royce White.

    Please, MMA. Knock him the F*** OUT.

    For real, I hope you're actually doing well. The stuff you're dealing with is legit and I can't help you, but I really actually want good things for you. My brother dealt with some things that were hard and in his absence I want you to know that people that don't have your challenges are cheering for you.

    Thank you for sharing your troubles. Please ask for more from us idiots. We don't know what you're going through. You deserve our best efforts to understand you and your challenges. You can send me personal messages, I will give you my phone number. I'm no perfect listener, but I do understand that through my brother being gone that randos do have a small chance of making a difference. @SemisolidSnake I take you seriously. I'm not some savior, but I care. How are you doing brother?

    I literally cried reading your post knowing that clutchfans is not just some place on the internet. Y'all all matter.

    Can you retire from something if it was acutally just only a cameo?

    Why does everything he says come out with an arrogance that is not even remotely worthy of acknowledgement since he hasn’t accomplished anything? He can talk about his anxiety all he wants, he’s a terrible role model and probably made it worse for people who truly suffer!
