THANX!

[Playumaya]

OM NOM NOM 

[andomaxcha]

Omg. I really am glad that you are so healthy , but aren't you hungry still? I'm 5'10 148 lbs and I'm eating at least 3 times that much. Im not gaining weight though. What am I doing wrong?

[opertnew]

@andomaxcha your metabolism may high.. 

[jhodson91]

@andomaxcha if you wanna gain muscle lift heavy, drink plenty of water, eat a high protein diet and get a good nights sleep.

[tanjiganji]

do more videos!

[varunjosh]

The narration in this vid reminds me of Christian Bale's opening narration in American Psycho.

[Foxhound101wh]

@varunjosh hahahahahahaha that is 10/10

[zangarbrandon]

Jon will be back stronger!

[goodhumourwagon]

Stay up Jonny! I know you'll be back stronger than before!

[rockcityaudio]

Em trying to copy jons diet to the letter and I have improved my fat ass so much even in just a week.This guy has clearly read up on his diet.I think he is quite a scientific anorak.

[ilyaichproductions]

yo keep doing these vidoes there mad interesting

[ticosexy22]

lol this guy doesn't enjoy his food, you can tell!

[eezerik]

why so much fruit and no meat?

[BrandonHinzMMA]

@eezerik he doesn't believe dairy and meats are that benefitial in your diet

[Shonem]

For some reason this made me think of the opening monologue to American Psycho...

[dietsolutions77]

Nice Diet Info on your site . look forward to more vids

[honchoryanc]

FORT WAYNE REPRESENTING

[HeiligZorn]

So he's stopped taking whey?

[sclaysdharma]

I guess you can get away with eating that crap(oatmeal, tofu, agave syrup, and beans) when you are young. Good luck keeping in shape and maintaining that kind of diet over a lifetime!

[pac0re]

@sclaysdharma what do you recommend?

[swbsws]

He is drinking from a Bud pint glass I like that.

[brosezela]

Music so peaceful

Video so calm

Eyes getting heavy

[Cervy18]

He doesn't use a lot of water, cause he likes his oatmeal lumpy.

[rjp9871]

@Cervy18 made me lol

[DarkGoddess666]

ugh add flavoring to the water LOL

[VeganMotorcyclePilot]

The best wrestling, bjj/ajj and grappling battle - Shields vs Fitch! I saw the grappling tournament years ago, but another go would be sweet. Vegan vs Vegan too! Jake did a nice peta2 video and such on it folks, check it out!

[VeganMotorcyclePilot]

Good luck in your fight Jon. You just keep winning! Thanks for the info-promoting vegan for health/animals is admirable. My father had triple bypass surgery after a heart attack/disease-leading killer even if thin/fit often due to consumption of animal products. Animal cholesterol is like clogging up u sink/toilet and a bad heart/arteries will make for a shorter career or life. Forks over Knives and Food Inc are good movies. MeatVideo dotcom on factory farms and look up vegan athlete videos!

[chazenlee]

Do you always keep a video camera in your cabinet?

[honeymonster147]

The first thing i do in the morning is drink two 16oz glasses of water...

The second thing i do in the morning is take an enormous 32oz piss

[Y2DMC]

@honeymonster147 HAHAHAHAH ah man.. this jon fitch.

[mitchmorganmusic]

those big water bottles have lots of BPA's in them

[HULKMANEC]

john fitch is so humble and good man,i love him as a person and as a athlete

[MrChanceCottle]

Hey Jon, for a vegan what all do you eat for protein? Mostly tofu? I heard that soy is bad for you. I'm trying to get in good nutrition so I can perform good. All the healthy stuff is expensive, what a bitch.

[ACLogikel]

@MrChanceCottle There is plenty of protein in plant food, tons of enzymes, if you're really worried about it add nuts to your diet, legumes, beans .. beans are one of the best sources of protein there is.

[Anthonitis]

Keep going strong, Jon. Big fan of yours.

[demonfire08]

Man this guy seems like such a humble person! He should go up to middleweight!

[demonfire08]

Man this guy seems like such a humble person! He should go up to 185!

[MmaNcovers]

@demonfire08 can't bulk up on that diet. he's become vegan now.

[mtWHITE100]

FITCH the way u drink water is boring

[FullMetal637]

@mtWHITE100 How do you drink water

[jkininji]

@mtWHITE100 winning be boring

[meetchvb]

@mtWHITE100 How is he supposed to drink it? With all of that garbage Splenda, Crystal Light and artificial sweeteners? Those are poison.

[121mendez]

any more info on the vegan chilli?

you should give more details in the description box brah

[MECHAZAWA6969]

the music is so soothing

[aabbcc5631]

dude just got fired...

[L1onHeart1991]

i was watching this video thinking holy sh*t than again i weigh 150

[TheDirtball69]

seriously. Do you get this food in california because I eat the exact same brand of everything you just ate.

[demonfire08]

got to love Jon Fitch! I personally think he should go 185! he would do so well!

[demonfire08]

got to love Jon Fitch! I personally think he should go 185! he would dominate!

[mixmaster2669]

Got to love Jon Fitch, the working mans fighter.

[760virus]

Make some more food videos please!

[adzbxr1]

Can you gain muscle with this diet?

[123gwf]

This is significantly more healthy than the beer and donuts that I consume around the clock.

[roninpainbringer]

hey fitch u dont take any supplements? meal replacements, creatine, glutamine, zma, etc etc etc

[thabithskit]

Jon Fitch is a weeaboo.

[joe3123]

this don't seem alot for a nearly 200pounds pro athlete ?!

[smokingherb420]

@joe3123 hes 155

[DjMackMacky232]

@smokingherb420 hes actually a 170 pound fighter

[joe3123]

this don't seem alot for a nearly 200pounds pro athlete ?!

[MrWiztor]

That lunch looks disgusting D:

poor fitch

[haveahorst]

@MrWiztor I think a whopper is way more disgusting, its basically a matter of perspective if you would eat an apple every day they would actually start to taste better with every day.

[whateverdot]

Man just call like Mr. Snack time!

[pedromauricio]

You are awesome !!!!!!!!!

[xRaIDeNx69]

Haha, loved the fact that he was drinking out of a Budweiser cup :P

[ufcfanandy]

man i can not eat any of that! I don't really like water so i only drink coke (2L a day). I have a very bad diet. I usually don't eat breakfast either if i do it is pre-made oats so that is the best part of my diet. Looks like i won't have a Fitch body anytime soon :(

[superjacob62]

I'm not gonna lie but that food looks pretty good :) I gotta try that now

[DCorreiaful]

rsix boy? Go choke on a fat one buddy :) your a useless prick mate

[gatorchoke1]

Damn dude you eat like a bird, how do you have enough energy for all that training and a little left over for the Ms.I would lose to much strength on that diet, wheres the eco meat ?

[everio17]

@gatorchoke1 most of the food he eats has alot of carbs so that will do it for energy. since its natural fruit sugar and organic food carbs and not HFCS its all slow digesting and doesnt convert to fat easily due to his training.

Thats how you stay at lightweight really. i mix vegan/vegetarian food along side eating some meats and basic whey protein after workouts personally. i cant do full vegan,i love chicken and steak too much.

[koolaslife]

@everio17 what exactly does HFCS stand for ?

[hadtomakeonetowatch]

@koolaslife high fructose corn syrup

[100isthebest]

Hei Jon i'm not impressed by your perfomance. =)

[DCorreiaful]

the 22 dislikes are from those arrogant people out there who don't have any will power or respect for their own bodies. Thanks Jon!! ive made the change and feel awesome. It's nice to see someone advertising something healthy for once. Can't wait to watch you beat down GSP.

[RSixBoy]

@DCorreiaful lol right

[Cervclash]

@DCorreiaful true that let them haters hate

[haralsonkaylak]

@tmanturner That is the way people should eat, athlete or not. Whether you are vegan, vegetarian, or meat eater, healthiness is the way to go. There are plenty of vegan dishes out there that are not boring at all. He eats plenty of healthy food. America is spoiled with portion size and foods that look good but destroy our bodies. Think smart and eat like this and you wont die from heart attack like you probably will someday!!! Enjoy life while it lasts.

[everio17]

@haralsonkaylak most people have no creativity,they make it seem as if meat isnt part of a meal,then theres no meal at all. All the food we eat is either meat or vegetables. theres no other type of food lol i mix it up. eating vegetarian and some meats.

[gmd1417]

PRETTY SMART GUY, HIS NUTRIONAL ADVICE MAKES A LOT OF SENSE.

[WestBuiltAMountain]

I got some mixed raw unsalted nuts from Trader Joe's, and it's amazing just how much different they taste. It's like those regular salted ones don't even taste real anymore; they're a totally different thing. Crazy how much our food taste is altered by salt.

[DaDonChevy]

Good stuff make more videos

[toxiconflict]

@tmanturner

Not all MMA fighters eat like that.

[MixedMartialY]

thank you. came across this just wondering through MMA vids..

but this is really interesting and helpfull.

and you did a nice job on making the vid nice to watch/listen to.

Cheers!

[BornIntoTheGrave]

I don't get why there are so many dislikes? This video has been helpful.

[TheViperStudioz]

That's my old next door neighbors cousin is Jon Fitch

[TheViperStudioz]

Thats my old next door neighborz cousin is Jon Fitch

[BradW789]

Awesome! Thanks for the video.

[badhui]

Very informative...Thank you captain caveman.

[XbotSlayer]

I prefer the Tank Abbot Diet.....and hope for the best when I throw a wild right.

[CNoble87]

@XbotSlayer LMFAO!!!!!!!! 

[1990TheProdigy]

camera??

[stopcicles]

You need to work some horse meat into that diet.

[jzt26]

Man that is one shitty diet for a pro athlete.

With what he showed he barely breaks 2000 calories (if that) and <100g of proteins. This can't be serious.

[bryjak]

Great vid! please make more Food specials !

[ajp500]

Bean chilli is very good just had it last night

[TheJugly]

thats great info .

[ihateslideshows]

lmao, oh yes, got to get some hemp in there

[78moneymaka78]

(No Homo) but if I can get a body like Jon Fitch, I'd eat and drink exactly what he eats & drinks ! This video is absolute GOLD !!!

[randomfrostname]

"and a vietnamese vegetable i can't pronounce" .. i lol'd :D

[Procrastinater09]

nice vid, i hope to see more during your recovery. I hope surgery will go well.

[Pattyg121212]

What time do you usually go to sleep cause I've heard you don't want to eat to closely to when you go to sleep

[edes01]

Great video - it's great to get an idea of what we should ideally be eating if you intensely train multiple times a week. Do you have cheat meals/days?

[yeahnodd]

thanks, i'll try the water tip (maybe one cup instead of two) and i'll increase my fruit intake

[ian55554]

i want a kiwi now :(

[TheEdLova]

Jon ,what weight do you walk around at??

[blah13371337]

I'd like to see what macros you try and hit through an entire day.

[bebIessed]

dude thats like 1000 calories a day u need way more than that

[mikeyid99]

jon you are a legend - hope you get back in the octagon soon - been trying to cut down on my animal proteins after having watched this and a couple of your other videos - good luck from the UK

[mikeyid99]

Jon Fitch you are a legend - i've tried to make the switch to much less animal proteins after having watched this video and a few of your others. Hope you get back in the Octagon soon, and good luck from the UK

[InTheWeedz]

wow. . this youtube channel actually makes me not hate jon fitch anymore LOL

[depeau44]

yummy....lol... thank god i am not a fighter.. i need my fried foods

[adamresyk2112]

@depeau44 As much as I like fried food, I don't like the boobs that come with it lol

[AbsoluteMMA101]

Jon Fitch eats more than I do and I weigh 220 >_>

[crisantoLORENZO]

so what's that vietnamese vegetable? come on man. haha

[jaayjaayy]

thnx jon...i started drinking 16oz of water when i wake up as well...noticed a HUGE difference in my mood and energy...

[adzbxr1]

@jaayjaayy samee heree

[ihatebobsaget1989]

@jaayjaayy it's all mental. placebo effect.

[86Pennywise666]

maybe somebody already asked... but what do you eat after training? especially when its late in the evening?

[IamHaddy]

you eat like a rabbit compared to Overeem lol

[Procrastinater09]

@IamHaddy good call lol

[WestBuiltAMountain]

Have seen if it's been asked - do you refrigerate the Agave after you open it? I'm reading contradicting things online. One site says up to a year is fine on the shelf once opened, but another says to put it in the fridge if you aren't going to use it up in a few weeks.

[bigpopps707]

thank you jon fitch

great guy!

[VeganPua]

Dawn! Jon you need to EAT MORE! I eat at least two time what you eat!

[TheIntiman1]

Awesome video Fitch,more videos is needed!!:D

[HulkSmash80s]

Cool video, John. This kind of makes me want to give vegetarianism/organic foods a try. If you don't mind I have a few questions about your diet:

1. Any idea how many calories you consumed? Do you feel like you've eaten enough at the end of the day?

2. What do you usually eat after lifting/ what would be the organic alternative to things like whey powder?

3. How do you think this new diet has affected your performances?

4. Is there anywhere I can get some good vegetarian recipes?

[VeganMotorcyclePilot]

Congrats on the strong finish and what should have been a win over another great top p4p fighter. For the decision, fighters at this level are well rounded and very hard to beat, let alone just take out. Spoiled spectators.

PEDS! Fitch is as clean as it gets going Vegan.

I mean hormones, steriods, antibiotics are pumped into cows and milk to make them produce 20x's what they normally do and chickens are drugged up too!

[ronnysoeberg]

Way to go on the diet switch. So much resilience towards switching away from meat, too many people believe that you HAVE to eat meat to stay healthy. Which makes no sense since a lot of atheletes are vegans and vegetarians. The chilli looked tasty. And way to go in the BJ fight. Not sure who I was cheering for, as both of you guys are at the top of my favorite fighters list. You definitely won that fight, though. Cheers.

[fytr4lyf1]

i love how the dog hears the water and goes to drink some too (:

[03blaird]

@4iamu damn man your right. He literally looks like a while lebron lmao

[dohertyz]

Is that a satsuma or an orange at 2:35?

[toxiconflict]

TO SWEETEN IT, EXTRA PROTEHN, I LIKE MY OATMEAL LUMPY. Why is Jon fitch speaking in such a wierd voice when he sasy these things?

[DannyDaBaga]

More of these videos please Fitch!

[typeclash]

Here is another athlete thats done it vegan style. Search carl lewis vegan

[typeclash]

This type of diet really helped me improve beyond my imagination, feel stronger and have more energy now at 33 then i had at 20. Can just imagine what it does for someone at your level. It's really amazing. I thisk everyone should try it and see if it works for them.

[151noemi]

You definitely won fight 127 and left Penn surprised.

You were definitely at a weight disadvantage compared to Penn but demonstrated what a vegan diet does, more stamina and resistance. By dominating the last two rounds makes you the winner but the jury called it a "majority draw"

[4iamu]

Man, dude looks like a white Lebron James.

[rezwanborja]

@4iamu AHAHAHAHAHA I thought I was the only one that noticed

[domandcaro]

@4iamu lol, with a full beard he looks like court mcgee

[depeau44]

@4iamu haha.. he do look little like lebron james

[pie579]

@4iamu lol true dat

[NOCDIB]

@4iamu Man, that is sooooo true!

[phantom360m]

like for the Vietnamese vegetable that he cant pronounce.

[TheMorlep]

hey. first of good comeback against penn, i thought you should have won by decision tho

I got a question. Did you become vegan out of cutting weight reason or out of moral reasons and will you stay vegan?

[fknclarky]

God, somebody else enjoy this with me. Play John Cale's piano piece from American Psycho in another window while watching this one...

Jon Fitch, American Vegan Psycho

[fknclarky]

God, somebody else enjoy this with me. Play John Cale's piano piece from American Psycho in another window while watching this one...

Jon Fitch, American Vegan Psycho

[rossell30]

He's not completely vegan because he eats honey,but lots of athletes adapt a vegan diet you can train way harder and recover faster.

[VeganMotorcyclePilot]

I think Fitch and his mostly veg diet helped his conditioning and stamina (as with vegan Diaz bros) weather the storm and come on strong to maul Penn in the end. I thought Fitch did enough for the w. This is a solid BJ who just KO'ed Hughs in no time, so congrats Jon. I enjoy the technical and physical chess matches.

[jaayjaayy]

Good job tonight Jon. You shouldve gotten a split des. Bullshit. But whtver you showed your the next challenge to GSP. Your diet is interesting but obviously effective. Jon, please work on your wrestling. I know your credentials but if you had defended those tdwns in the 1st 2 rds, you wouldve taken it. Besides, you know that your wrestling HAS to be TOP NOTCH for GSP...anyway BIG FAN and hope to see you in the octagon again soon

[realfreakaynaughtay]

What a lame outcome... But you should raise in stock anyway. I believe that you "beat" BJ pretty decisively.

[shawnzeeee]

I like my oatmeal lumpy too!

[grussom]

kiwi before going to sleep

why not a big ass cup of cofee where you re at it

[doe791]

great video. Thanks for sharing.

[lovelikeabomb]

i'm so glad to see other combat sports athletes coming around. he should use better water. AND STOP WITH THE MICROWAVES. jon.. check out hippocrates health institute and the work of dr. brian clement. he will blow your mind.

if fitch wins and shields wins it would be a vegan vs vegan championship match.. WAR FITCH

[gravytony]

Jon fitch eats what most in shape people eat not a shocker.

[Cornelius90]

100% tim ferris four hour body diet :D

[usforeignpolicy]

I read an article that you became a vegeterian. It's interesting to see what you daily diet looks like. Good luck.

[flyslaier]

this video is cool. BUT DID YOU SEE THE MAN WITH THE GOLDEN VOICE?? :P

[Jeronimomico]

I may try this routine...I hope Fitch finishes fights from now on though.

[cisumecnart]

Jon are you vegetarian

[primester]

How is this enough calories for a professional fighter?

[techriot]

@primester that's exactly what i thought! im a vegetarian as well but i eat wayyy more than he does

[XdariusXNJ]

Awesome video, Jon! I have been vegan for 17 years and it's easily the best decision I have ever made.

[Edrix]

American Psycho inspired eh?

[DarkoBWM]

I thought he is suppose to be on a vegan diet? If so he shouldn't be using Honey at all. It's an animal product.

[chilly162]

Its so expensive to eat this way. But its worth it in the end.

[heenybigweeny]

I'm liking the production value, camera INSIDE the cupboard as he opens, classic!

[AmsterdamHeavy]

so, how much protein a day are you getting as a vegan sir? thanks and g/l

[Eliano55]

This just shows how hard is to be mma pro.

[VeganTruth]

Great to hear that you have gone "vegan"... or at least in that direct.

As a long time vegan myself, i would recommend that you pick up the following books:

The Thrive Diet

Vegan Freak

Animals as Persons: Essays on the Abolition of Animal Exploitation

There is a whole lot more to being vegan then the food (and the health advantages are the least important).

If you need some help, ive been vegan for almost 9 years, and meat free for 15 years. Im 6 foot 4 and 240lbs, so message me with Q & A

[thomm030]

nice

[p4l3rm0]

I'm rooting for BJ, but I like John very much and this video was just awesome.

[taeyang]

DEAR JON FITCH, WHY ARE YOU SO AWESOME?

[xMatthewxOceanx]

Fuck yeah, Vegan/Vegetarian MMA fighters represent!
