My son also has Mobius Syndrome and I couldn't be more happy that it is finally getting some attention in media!! Love Chito and his beautiful family. Just showed this video to my wife and we're literally in tears. The experience Chito and his family went through is the same as ours. We also moved countries for our son and face the same challenges. The most beautiful thing about my son is also his smile - something we tell him every day.

My 2 year old has Autism and sometimes I blame myself, I don't know why but I wish I could do more. It's not the same, but I can relate to an extent what it's like to have a child with a disability. I know it's nothing nearly as severe, but I know what that helpless feeling is like to sit there and look at your child and wish you could have or could do more to help them live a normal life. Much love to anyone with kids who go through something like this, you aren't alone and your hard work as a parent will always be cherished by your kids.
As a father I can tell you this I’m crying like a baby watching this. We knew the story but to see it all in a video is a stunner. Chito gonna be a champ soon!

I'm so glad the UFC decided to highlight his story, I have heard it in different places little bits here and there but to hear his whole story brought me to tears... He popped on my radar after his fight against O'Malley, and since then I was curious of the reason that he was so aggressive, now I know this man is driven by love and need, no wonder he just tearing through a shark tank of a division.

wont lie, wasn't a chito fan previously but seeing him emotional after that win won me over and especially the love he has for his kids & especially his daughter. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Chito is the man, I started watching MMA right when he entered the UFC. Heart of gold and shins of steel, dude will be champion.
I want Chito to take the division. He's the man.
Wow how did I never know about this? As a father, I teared up the entire video. This man has inspired me in so many ways. Thank you UFC and Chito Vera for sharing this story with us fans. You sir, are an inspiration to us all.
I literally haven’t cried in probably 3 years. And this… yeah this definitely made a few tears fall 😢❤❤ such a beautiful story, such a beautiful family, such a killer for all the right reasons. I pray to God he becomes champ and soon!!!!

Wow, I didn't know his back story. That was excellent. Chito is one helluva fighter, but by God, he is one of the very best fathers, one of a kind!!! I loved that story.

Already liked chito... But now I love him.... What a story man. There story is so much bigger than just being a fighter.... Amazing father chito and a amazing wife and kids.
UFC needs to pay fighters more. Chito!!!! Que grande eres!!!!!
This man deserves every respect in the world. He does everything for his family and he has achieved his goal and I'm so happy to see it. I congratulate him and his family from the bottom of my heart. I hope one day he can put the belt in his daughter's arms.
Wow right as I was going to bed I began crying. What a man Chito is. Every father should look up to what he has done to his family. Amazing. Chito I’m rooting for you.
It's inspiring what a parent will do for their kids both Mothers and Fathers who are in their kids lives they'll really move boulders
I hope nothing but greatness for him and his family! One of my favorite fighters on the roster both in and out of the octagon!
Chito got me crying and shit
That’s awesome man. I like him even more now. Keep praying brother. Praise God!
Wow. So touching. I’m not crying, you’re crying. God Bless his daughter!
Everybody give a round of applause for this lethal fighter and most importantly a wonderful man that every man and boy should strive to want and be.
What a OG!!! Definitely one of the baddest men in the UFC. Big fan. Good man, father, and husband. Doesn’t take anything for granted! Warrior!
Chito, you just gained a lifetime fan. Not for just being a fighter but an amazing father. Your daughter is so beautiful.
Wow Chito and his family got me crying over here
So happy this first episode is on Chito. The man cares so much about his family, can only wish him the best. Great show UFC you guys are killing it !
This is the epitome of fatherhood's unconditional love - GOD bless your career and family Chito 🙏
My family is from Peru, I've been to Ecuador (Guayaquil and Quito) twice because I have family living there as well. I've told every Ecuadorian I've met in NYC that I love their hunger to succeed. They hate being ordinary people, and they will literally be Stubborn as hell to get where they want to be. I feel Peruvians are the same, that's why we've bumped heads in the past lol. I have a great admiration for Ecuadorians and it's refreshing to see their flag waving in the air on the way to the Octagon, making their South American brothers proud. ✊🇪🇨 Rooting for you bro.
Que gran historia la de la familia de Chito.. por eso estoy seguro que vas a llegar a ser campeón de la UFC y vas a traer ese cinturón a Ecuador cómo un día lo dijiste.. grande CHITO saludos desde Ecuador

What a beautiful man. Much respect for Marlon and his family.

I never knew this about Chito. It's heart breaking to even know this daughter went through stuff like that, but what amazed me, this guy did it for his family. Stray strong and bless 🙏
We need more fathers like you! ❤
Im cry😭😭 chito.... we love you so much
How can you not love Chito. I wish the ufc did more stories on fighter lives like this. It really makes you like the fighters more; the more you learn.
Wow, I loved Marlon already, but I've just gained a whole new respect for the man. This was an amazing piece to share.
A defeat does not mark the end of a career, it will come back stronger, Chito Vera!☝🏼🇪🇨
I cry now
FUTURE CHAMP CHITO🔥🔥
Marlon Chitooo Veraaa !!!! LES'TGO!!!!🇪🇨🔝🔝🔝
Man Chito is just different 💯, he has that mentality that you can't teach and very few fighters have it, and that puts him above someone of his same skills or even better.
One hell of a smile. Chicos a good dad.
All my respect for you, chito, guerrero latino, greetings from El Salvador 💪
As a father, I felt Chito's pain going through that situation. It's never easy for everyone seeing your child go through something very difficult. Hats off to Chito. Bless you and your family. 🥹
Men this guy was one of my favorite fighters, but seeing his story and what an honorable man he is, makes him my all time favorite fighter ! what a guy ! I think his story and his inspiration makes him the most dangerous fighter in the UFC ! Love for this guy
Marlon is one of my favorite fighters. He goes into his fights super cool & confident like he knows he's holding all the aces. Super entertaining in all the fight promo and in the fights...then he celebrates for like 3 days with friends and family after a win.
I hope Chito becomes the Champ..He a men who understands what's more important..His Family..My prayers and blessings..I wish him nothing but the best in his career
That’s why he is the best
Such a great father😢
As a father of 6 kids, 4 of them daughters, I just became the biggest Chito Vera fan. I was a fan before, but now, wow!
Im not crying just sweating from the eyes
I have never wanted to see someone succeed so bad in all my life. GO CHITO!!!!!!!!!! 😊😊🙏
Much respect. As a father of two daughters, you'll do what ever it takes.
What a touching story... I cried literally like a child... Chito is one of the best role models as a father and person... Her daughter is a blessing to him who made him what he is today... so much love and respect.
Bin mega beeindruckt von deinem Vater sein❤ ich wünsche dir und deine Familie Weiter hin viel glück. 🍀
