@MagnusGalactusOG - Exactly, he has no loyalty. Anyone who supports him should know he cares more about views and clout than friendships. It's pathetic
He’s literally a biased little left wing soy boy that can’t shut up about the same 3 fighters he hates hahaha insanely hypocritical too, blocks people in the comments who call him out on his BS
I've been a member of James' discord the last 6 months. NONE of these things are what MMAJoey is making them out to be. Totally false statements with no facts. Bro had a chance in DMs to hash things out but decided to block him and tweet about him instead... Au Revoir! Adios!
You can tell Joey is the guy that got bullied in school by the jocks. “ I’m rich, I’ve got a nice house,I’ve got nice cars, I’ve got a hot girlfriend, Blah, Blah, Blah. He constantly has to be validated. He’s literally the guy that holds the Stop & Slow sign in roadwork.
As someone who watched this whole thing go down from the sidelines in the cord. It was overall just a few petty disagreements that evolved very quickly into finding the information presented in the video. The small purge seemed cordial everything seemed fine. Only for a couple hours later to walk into the same fire once again fanned by Joey. If you wanted to talk shit on us at least use some facts like normal right? Why go on Twitter and just lie. Why take it to this point? The truth the whole truth and nothing but the truth was presented in this video. James has always been kind as hell to every regular in that chat and even to Joey himself. And for Joey to turn heel and try stepping on other people's things with blatant lies. That's pretty pathetic lil bro. All the dudes in the server are absolute bros and they've helped me through a lot. Good people slandered by lies over some petty bullshit. I support you Lynch and Marcel.
Tbh I’m not in any mma discords and this all seems incredibly immature (mma fans what else is new?) and I hope the creators atleast holding a sliver of decency. Idk what’s true or not, but I sure don’t mind moving on from a creator that spreads lies,hate, toxicity. MMA is a beautiful sport and we should be better than that. Everyday I feel like Lucas Tracy is the overall best thing to happen to mma youtube
Before I even watch I can already say Joey has always been fishing for views and attention ever since other creators passed him up. You included. Keep grinding my guy great content.
Good on you for making this video, James. I have no idea what Joey's endgame is, but I doubt it will end well. It was very insidious that Joey would frame Leon Edwards as a 12 year old boy when the man is 32. That just shows you how awful of a person he is
Joey is just a social justice warrior who makes up fake narratives to push certain agenda's, and then lie about how he's some bastian of critical thinking. The guy is such a fraud.
I did like Joey for awhile, but he always claims how he is a critical thinker and not biased, but nothing could be further from the truth.The guy lets his dislike of certain fighters contaminate his brain.He just piles on certain fighters in a grotesque way.And I don't even like those fighters, but I respect their skills and rights.And he is like a shock jock, using controversy to grow his channel or it's the left right divide, either way, I don't have time for dishonest actors, difference of opinions are fine.People take it personal because of difference of opinion.If we all had the same opinions we would never get anywhere, because we are as far away from perfect as possible.
Yeah so true... critical thinker more like critical boot licker... critical kiss ass to anyone not white... his got that white guilt even though his a soy boy.
He's one of those frauds who claims to be a bastian of independent thinking and going places no one else will, when all he does is make up ways to push social justice narratives and lie constantly. He's exactly like Luke Thomas, I told him this on his stream when he kept smugly ignoring my points and he blocked me because he can't actually dispute people who disagree with him without throwing insults and hiding away.
I kid you not when i used to be in his chat another big reason I unsubscribed to his channel was because that dude literally wishes he were either born Dagestani or blatantly glazes every fighter from that region or any Muslim fighter for that matter. I was born and raised in Kazakhstan 🇰🇿 and I am proud of who I am and where I am from, but I would never talk about anyone in a preferential manner based on their religion or nationality - Joey has literally done that since his channel’s inception and I’m sorry you have to deal with this but I am glad that you are because he is not right for slandering against you and his content is really all about shock headlines and clout- for the record I have never unsubscribed from any other channel in my life
Every single one of his thumbnails is about chandler waiting for Connor, Colby Covington embarrassing himself, or Dana white lying. I swear he rotates those 3 topics every video I’ve never seen anything else
First, James was always respectful to Joey regardless if they agreed and James would often congratulate Joey on RU-vid milestones. Secondly, I have never seen any Belal/911 talk nor have I ever seen any racial slurs in the discord. If there were, they would have been called out by myself and other members... there are so many good, solid people in there. Ridiculous and shameful behaviour from MMA Joey.
A very mature response that came with receipts to back up your points. James, you've always been one of the most respected people in Media and I think the respect went up for you today.
Joey is a complete hypocrite, who says he's about that life and is a critical thinker. In reality all he does is bait people with made up narratives, act like he's some special bastian of truth and snap at anyone who thinks differently. He's Luke Thomas without the marine background. I told him this in his chat when I pointed out he was lying about Strickland, Covington and over exaggerating some truths, while covering & making stuff up about other fighters. He blocked me on twitter when I pointed out that literally everything he accused James of covering for, people being racist, relating Belal to crimes from the past he had nothing to do with and going off on people who do nothing wrong is stuff that certain fighters have done that he not only ignores but makes up narratives to demonise the people who are being targeted. The guy is a complete fake and a fraud, bet in a million years if anyone offered to debate him he would decline and call them names, while sitting his safe space.
Dude I support you 1000% James. I’ve never really watched Joey, but I watch your channel regularly. You’ve always been super responsible and transparent man. Hope all this doesn’t get blown out of proportion more then it already has. Take it easy man

I used to subscribe to Joey but he’s the only creator I’ve ever unsubscribed from. He started tweeting contrarian takes just to get attention, and I couldn’t see him as a credible source of information anymore. The guy is trying too hard to be like Guru but doesn’t have the funny personality in order to do so.
100% agree, soooo annoying. Copying everything n making vids of nothing.... Such an unlikeable guy and no personality. Tries too hard but just can't pull it off
I remember you mentioning Joey, as your friend despite your diffrences and a mutual respect among you two, after being pressed by a guy on a livestream to go after Joey but never knew that the day will come soon.
I’ve watched some of his videos but never subscribed bc I definitely don’t agree with a lot of shit he says. He’s obsessed talking about Jamal and Chandler.
He probably does have a fiance. Women's standards are real low these days. They love getting into relationships with bums. As far as a job goes though. Hell no. Nobody could ever work with someone like him.
#Receipts MMA Joey is pathetic. Sucks James and Marcel had to do this on a Sunday. Happy you set the record straight and excommunicated Joey form Discord.
You just gained a sub brother! MMA Joey is an absolute disgrace and I’ve never liked his content. He can’t stand that you have twice as many subs as him lol keep doing you man

@Atlas92936 - Read the reply's on here from several Discord members. He's making all of this up. There is nothing out of line in our chat and it's a fun place for everyone. Joey just hates me and feels the needs to make things up to fit his agenda.
James, don't worry about the haters, do you, me and others enjoy your content and when it comes to discord etc. there's always drama in places like this, i even recently realized how childish adults are when i've read drama on facebook chat with my kids kindergarten group.
Yo James seeing that dude accusing you of racism immediately made me understand everything about the guy. I’m not a member of your channel but i am a subscriber and it’s been a while since i started to follow you here on youtube and i know you are not that type of person. Meanwhile i had no idea who that boy was, just checked some of his content yesterday and he right away send me that two faced lying rat vibe…that dude is a pathological liar.
Yep, thank you for justifying my innitial thoughts. Couldn't MMA Joey from the moment i saw him. I got total weasel vibes right away. Can't stand somebody that twists shit to fit a narrative, talking about stuff out of context to try to slander someone knowing they're presenting it in a stupid way that's not how it was meant and they know it. Childish 💩. "ThEy TaLk aBouT 12 YeAr OlD BoYs" 🤦♂️
Brother James. I never trusted MMA Joey. Something about his energy and content that rubs me the wrong way like MMA Guru. They thrive on the drama and get so much more views as negative always attracts the view numbers. You are way too good to give them this much attention. I know you're defending yourself but never argue with fools and just remain who you are. I like James Lynch and so do many more :) Keep up the good work. I love that you are trying different stuff out. It's more refreshing than the usual 101 stuff.
Maybe James just want to be cordial with everybody and even though he sees some bs around but don't to pile on coz probably in his mind its non of his business and can be still respectful regardless. But the thing here is Joey oviously literally attacking James, so he has to defend his reputatiion
Saw someone call him the TEMU version of Guru. I understand the description but it’s actually disrespectful to Guru to have that bum associated with him. Even a TEMU version
My dad Stu used to say, 'A liar will lie about anything, even the smallest thing.' Joey and Hulk Hogan's reputations as untrustworthy individuals are well-documented 😎
"When you invent the ship, you invent the shipwreck" In other words, RU-vid is a great platform for people to build their own brand and provide a living for themselves, but with a very low barrier to entry (smart device, email address, and internet connection). I am not sure what Joey's background in journalism or this industry is, so correct me if I am wrong. But it seems like this type of behavior is what you get when anybody can get a name for themselves on RU-vid. When push comes to shove, the ones who treat this as a profession will separate themselves from the layman. That is no hate on Joey, but there does seem to be a lack of professionalism in just moving on not creating an emotion response from this situation. Also - props for taking on dad duty like that.
Youre such a great guy it comes through in everything you do. hes just trying to make his name off extremee howard stern style trash. let him fail on hi sown you are a really quality human being bro keep up the great work
Why do most people in mma talk s***t about each other if its the fighters managers now the media constantly bickering amongest themselves is just abysmal to me keep up the good work james i respect your efforts and content
That guy joey is a meathead I know you aren’t coming at him personally but after hearing this snake behavior I’d never even give a video of his a glance never liked his takes I just like to see everyone’s takes to get different perspectives but he’s become so biased and weird with his beefs that it’s seeming like he’s just trying to come out as the hood guy or the one who won or something it’s pathetic I can’t support this man anymore keep up the good work James
Nobody takes MMAJoey seriously, i've never even watched him and only heard about him from everyone in the mma community saying what a clout chasing joke he is
Feels like his clip farming guarantee he makes like 30 responses because he’s miserable you’re doing great dude love the breakdowns Nothing but good vibes
This is so disappointing. You don't know me but I have a decent following on Twitter (or X), used to have a much bigger following before the old owners of Twitter banned my account for "inciting violence" all because I use to post my UFC predictions on Twitter & my prediction was that a fighter was going to get knocked out (which he did) but I never tagged anyone. It was just a prediction and I lose literally over 10k followers all bc of that and now because of it, I don't even try to get followers anymore bc I was worried it would keep happening and just wanted those following me who are cool people who want to chat MMA. But where I'm going with this is, I was wrong at times back then as well and I'd allow people to upset me and I would say things I shouldn't. But you are the nicest guy in the world. Your interviews are by far the best in the business. You don't even know me, (or even follow me back on X, damn you, jk) but I've been a loyal supporter for years. And I've always felt that your channels or content no matter who you would work for at that time was criminally underrated and ive always felt you deserve to have the type of views that the MMA Gurus of the world get, who's literally willing to do the craziest things just for a tip on a live stream like he's a side show or something and these people are willing to say the most vile things about fighters or come out with content "proof that Jon Jones is gay" and MMA fans are so awful that they would rather contribute 100s of thousands of views to that type of shit, rather than interviews with fighters the week before they go and fight on these big cards. It's insane to me. And you have always been a person who is willing to help others. You have created videos, literally giving instructions on how to get into RU-vid and what's needed and how to do it. You have taken your time to do that when you don't have to. You have given advice to aspiring journalists or RU-vidrs and just so many things. I know I'm all over the place here, but it's just really upsetting as a long time fan that people would treat someone as kind as you are, who actually contributes positively to the world of a sport that has saved my life, but more importantly, contribute positively to the world in general as a good man who's just a family man trying to provide for his family covering (with dignity & respect) the sport we all love so much. Again super disappointed that these are the type of people who get the views and who are willing to trash a good person just for more views and clout and I'm sorry and I will always support your work wherever it may be. You are the best interviewer in the game by far and you are a good man. (Sorry for the essay and for being all over the place)
Theres a reason why MMA Joey is one of the slowest growing mma channels. Theres new channels on the rise havent been on that long already closing in on him. He brings nothing to this space. Absolutely nothing.
Sounds like he was feeling himself. Then, realized he gets most of his ideas and breaking news from ur chat. And then was salty like "ya you're an adult whatever" lmao. Also, MMAJoey is terrible. I thought mmaguru was annoying 2 years ago lol sheesh
Hey james. The problem in mma media space that there are genuine journalists with actual background in reporting backed by research and education and would be journalists (or cheap youtubers) who are maligning the art of journalism. The twitter and youtube space have given rise to these so called experts - who manipulate the space given to them and talk crap and there is a large section of audience who are willing to follow them just to vent their frustrations in their life. Its no surprise that MMA joey came up with this - because it give him more clout and views and sadly there are people who will be joining on this bandwagon. Good reply from your end keep reporting and we enjoy your content. Anyways huv u any update on shavkat , would love u to huv an interview with him
I never thought this day would come. Both James and Joey are amazing true people. In my opinion others are just starting drama. I hope we solve this asap.
First time I've even seen you tbh and this was well said and very believable. You're instantly a likeable/believeable guy for some reason. Anyway, subscribed. Looking forward to getting away from the negative guru/Joey style content
MMA Joey is literally the definition of trying to be political correct. This why his channel is a dead end, you can literally predict all his MMA takes which is why is content is redundant.
James, I unsubscribed from that MMA Joey poor excuse for a human being let alone a reporter because at some point I was watching him in his live chat and was interacting as I normally do and at some point, I said that he is probably Top 5 RU-vid MMA channel’s after James Lynch, MMA Guru, Lucas Tracy, and I think that was it. So I actually was being commentary of his work and he immediately got butt hurt called me uneducated and other names and blocked me… I was honestly shocked but then I saw, before I exited his chat, someone else asking him why does he care so much if someone doesn’t think he is the best to which he replied that he does not, after which the person proceeded to ask him then why did he block me, and he said with a straight face that he didn’t… and I’m not even exaggerating I wasn’t trolling I mean you know I have never been disrespectful or rude in any of the chats you’ve seen me on but that Joey has serious insecurity issues and overall, after thinking about how he approaches content and some of the titles he makes for his videos, I was wrong to put him so high ranked - in fact, he is garbage he is a really slimy individual and all he does is for clout… just sharing my personal experience with that liar and clout chaser.
