Robin Black brings profound integrity and knowledge to a sport overdependent on trash talk. Unfortunately, last week he was part of a round of layoffs at Canada’s Fight Network.

I got a few calls yesterday about big cuts at Fight Network, about friends being let go,” wrote Black on Facebook. “I was sad and scared for them. Then the call came in to me. Heavy scaling back of originally-produced content. Down- sizing. After 8 years, my job is being eliminated.

“I’m now a free agent. I don’t have a job today. I’m a bit frightened to be honest. Surprised and frightened. Analyzing The Martial Arts and breaking down fights is not a job for me. It’s a way of life. A lifestyle. It’s who I am. I will continue to do it. I will continue to do my breakdowns, they are a great joy of my life. Where? For whom? I don’t know. I’m hoping those answers reveal themselves soon. There is no one more passionate than me, no one more driven, no one who will work harder on their craft.”

Now just days later, Black has multiple announcements.

One, he will be releasing content via Patreon.

Fighting is the most elegant art form, so I have dedicated my life to the study of Martial Arts. I analyze fighting and share the beauty that I discover through podcasts and video analysis. My true joy in life is making my video Fight Breakdowns, and I am working towards building a studio where I can once again make this art.

Thank you so much for taking this journey with me. I am forever in your debt.

Much Love,

Robin
