Dominated her career at the highest level, made a difference and impact to the real world, and found herself a solid man to settle down and build with. Maya won at a life man shouts out to her🙌🏾
Maya Moore is so beautiful man. I'm so happy she's fulfilling this calling and living her life with love and compassion first.
She was fine while she played and she still looks amazing now 💯
@Hey Dude to me she does 🤷🏽♂️ you don’t have to agree 😂
She has gotten to be a big woman
Maya Moore is a great human being
An all time great who stepped away early, worshipping God, advocating for others. This speech was awesome and I love that the ESPN put it on TH-cam but it would be great if every show talked about this on MONDAY
Maya you da real MVP for life great speech 🎤 💯
To the ones commenting on her weight.. You're really revealing who you truly are. I'll pray for you all.
I luv her body and shape. I'll take it.
For real smh it’s like you watched that incredible speech and that’s what you got from it?
They see her as an athlete first bruh..
If Maya is happy, then I'm happy for her.
She is stunning.
One human being with a lit torch, shining a light into this dark selfish world. Let's follow her beam to make this place a better one for all humanity
I just finished watching 30 for 30. May the Lord bless their journey. Please help in your own way. This can be done in so many ways...with words, letters, contributions, prayer, petitions, viable programs , support groups, educational programs, voting, holding our leadership accountable etc. We need solutions...We can’t fall for deflections, distractions, scare tactics and excuses.
The Athlete in me wants Maya back on the court. The unselfish side believes Maya has played her last game and has found a new passion in life.
Nevermind her weight...listen to the weighty words she unashamedly spoke. Beauty inside and out. Loving others gives you a glow (that's the Spirit). Blessings to Maya and Jonathan and her efforts to correct injustice.
Absolutely but we love our women thick a full plate
Maya you are truly a hero!! Thank you for following God's path and helping those who need us the most! I applaud you and hope others are inspired to do more!!!!!! Wishing you and Jonathan continued success and happiness!
PRAISE GOD, SISTA!! 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽 You brought honor to the Most High, your husband & family! These Hollywood elites know nothing about your type of love and sacrifice! As an activist for criminal justice reform, I know your struggle....in it deep! 😘😉👍🏽👍🏽
Truth! Amen!
Powerful on and off the court. May your message resonate with all who hear that humanity must unite. I love my neighbors. And we are all different and yet the same in love.
Maya was a beast but I can tell she ain't coming back to the game.
Lol
Yeah, her game was nice. But she looks like she's gotten pretty comfortable
Big fax. All that injustice was making her hungry lol. She was cold though. One of the best.
@@jaydag24 smh
factsss...she dont look like she staying in game shape but its all good, she still a legend!!!
This woman is such a beautiful example of how to live life & give at 100% to herself & others. A true inspiration and a benchmark for us to see right before our eyes. Thank you Maya & family.
Maya Moore is an amazing person. The way she has stuck with fighting the justice system is extroidinary
I didn’t know who she was until I watched the 30 for 30 Breakway.
A must watch!
Get your tissue. It has love, passion, sadness, will make you cry and bring joy to your heart.
Anyone who is human, should love her once you know what has accomplished off the court. She is a greater champion off the court to me.
May life or god always bless her beyond her wildest dreams till she dies.
She is an amazing woman!!!
Maya is a outstanding women and its all love for her and wat she hades done
Maya Moore gets it. She went out and got her a HUSBAND!!! She left her career to be a WIFE! Good for her.
He walked his wife up to to the he stage and went back to sit down. Man!!! She’s winning!
Well, you're half-right. She left basketball to work in prison reform by helping him overturn a wrongful conviction.
@Tyana Holmes Family is the most important thing. She has a husband and most black women won’t. She put family first.
@Tyana Holmes most BW will never marry at all. 1/4 will marry in their lifetime
@Tyana Holmes I don’t understand the notion of marrying down for men or women. I believe that it’s a choice and we choose the best of our options. Take me for example, so it’s not so offensive. I’m rather wealthy but if all that I can attract are women that are beneath where I think I am, would I be marrying down by choosing the best of my options when all of my options are beneath where I think I am?
Thank You Maya Moore for Believing in Johnathan Irons. Greatest Love Story I've Ever Witnessed in My 47 years Living. 💪🏾🙏🏾🌹☀️👑
God is Great! Thank you Jonathon and Maya for your fight, love, persistence, perseverance and commitment to each other and equality! Much love and blessings to both of you and your family! 🙏🏾💪🏾💕
Awesome speech by a beautiful person inside and out. I wish you your husband Johnathan much success and continued growth!
Love her speech
how can people dislike this like i’m so confused lmao
Only focusing on her weight, having no clue how much she's been grinding for the past two years for pridon reform.
Must be those Missouri prosecutors and others part of that flawed by design injustice system.
To walk away from being the best female basketball player to doing something so unselfish for an innocent man speaks volumes on who she is has a person. I jus got done watching her 30 for 30. Amazing woman!!!! I have to take my hat off to this woman. A tru queen
What Maya did was truly inspirational ‼️ I pray for her and Johnathan on their marriage ‼️I pray that she comes back cause the WNBA misses her dearly ‼️🙏🏾💪🏽💯
WNBA is just not as awesome without her
It was never awesome
@@chez881 😂
So sad that almost every single comment had nothing to do with what she said but about her weight. Great world we live in these days!! 🙄🙄
Fr smh!!! CONGRATS To her setting oh boy free!!!
That's because they have no clue about what she's been doing all this time, actually doing something about people getting wrongfully convicted. She's putting in work in a different way. But nope, all they see is a person who stopped playing ball and put on weight...no context, no clue as to how much she's still outworking the average dude in everyday life.
She still fine to me 💯🔥
Still gorgeous inside and out
We're just not used to her this way in this light give us time no one in the spotlight is free from criticism.
I love this girl. She is an inspiration and an angel. We need more people like her in our society.
It’s clear people with these weight comments never had a girlfriend before🤦🏾♂️ weight gain on muscle will leave you looking like Maya.
She was an athlete in great condition her whole life, if she wants to kick back and enjoy meals these days, why not 🤷🏾♂️
What does having a girlfriend has to do with weight gain? Plus her muscles was never big
That girl still fine 😍🔥
@@DPumm360 Yessir......!!!
Such an inspiration. 30 for 30 was Amazing and showed the true meaning of life. God and Love❤
Maya I was proud of you at the ESPY award ceremony your style attitude toward humanity was expressed elequently in such a graceful manner. I believe your decision on leaving the spotlight of professional women’s basketball has opened the door for you to proceed to your dreams of helping others. You are a role model for all women of all ages to follow their own lifestyle. I have been a long time supporter of your ever since your freshman year at UConn and you have given me countless hours of entertainment. I wish you all the happiness in your marriage and believe your success in your foundation will grow beyond your dreams. I thank you for my years o f entertainment and your gift to humanity
She should be the face of the WNBA...A real woman....so beautiful,so classy ,so elegant, so intelligent.... She has the diplomacy of a presidential figure......Her values would be the values that God want us to have .. Prioritizing what's really important in life.... Basketball was a gift... Maya was one of the best to ever do it..... She might not come back to the game.,but if she does....I guarantee she would return to form.... ESPN should be running this over and over and over ,but what she represent ,they will just breeze through it.... Maya ,u are a true QUEEN...God bless u sister
May the legend of Maya Moore continue. like=Agree
Maya is the Goat 🐐
Hallelujah!
I’ve always liked her great athlete great basketball player...
Found purpose … walk in it Maya, God’s got you both 🙌🏽🙌🏽
Wow amazing that their are so many comments concerning Maya's weight physically and not the weight of her powerful words. We as people are so superficial and don't focus on being better humans to each other. If she did not want to play basketball no more that is fine. She did everything to do there with the Lynx. If she does return she is 32 and can get back to game shape. You guys should see some NFL players after the off season and get back with me.
Bars.
Thank you !
Love the weight she's put on
Love you Maya Moore. Best woman alive♥️😘
Amazing woman!
Her 30 for 30 Breakaway is a must watch!!!
Goat of WNBA
Championing our humanity before our ambitions. Well said!!!
That was a powerful speech!!
Mark this moment as a pivotal moment in the life of Rob Gronkowski. Hearing this speech will change the whole trajectory of his life. jkjk
Maya is already Springfield, IL bound she never has to lace them up again. But as a fan i do miss her in the game. I sincerely hope that her husband treats her like the Queen she is because she went through alot to help him get his freedom. 👑❤✊🏿
SHE WAS THE GOAT BEFORE SHE LEFT THE GAME AND DEFINITELY STILL IS!!!
The courage and spiritual strength that it took for Maya to change lanes and stand for social justice 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
I have the utmost respect for you Maya Moore Irons
Absolutely beautiful, heartfelt and inspiring. You deserve this award.👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Great Speech!
if that was off the top of the dome shes very smart girl.
👑
I want to have this acceptance speech in print. Every single word is an inspiration!
We need to act upon these words as humans. If we don’t take care and feel for
our fellow neighbors, we as a civilization are lost!!
He BETTER put that woman first!!! Fr *Jaheim voice* 💯
Wow so well said and very inspiring.
Beautiful speech
Awesome Award for Maya Moore!❤❤
I appreciate you for standing boldly and proud of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
Long live idol Maya Moore

🙌 Maya moore speech
I luv this woman
Queen Maya!!!
This woman needs to come clean on how she was underaged with Jonathan Irons. She’s no hero.
Huh? How was she underaged?
@@MIGGYME1 She claims to have met him at 18 while he was locked up. Lies! Maya knew that man as a little girl. This all a scandal.
Thick and healthy that’s that happy weight much love and respect to maya Moore man fr the 🐐
Jonathan, you got you one, brother.
Amazing woman 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Wow! GREAT SPEECH! so beautiful ❤️🌎
She’s my G.O.A.T.
Congrats to all who work to get wrongfully convicted people out of prison. Special shout out to the Tampa Bay Bucs who earlier this year helped Robert DuBoise get back on his feet after spending 37 years on Death Row on a wrong conviction.
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
❤❤❤
Maya Moore great woman ❤
I'm sure she made many so called liberals uncomfortable with much of her speech. Love this sister.
Maya Moore getting thick 🤩🤩
Great job great speech
Maya looking real thick now lol
😂🤣😂🤣😂
You hella late on that bro
I like the fit maya...
Still gorgeous either way
@@mauricewilliams195 inside
She could've been the goat for women's basketball.
Can I get your website?
WoW, that was beautiful!
This makes me cry, I actually had a chance lol
Keep fighting on Maya we’re all with you Black Lives Matter
VERY INTENSE SALUTE ... 💯💪🏾👍🏾❤
I loved that
I miss her on the court
Hope she coming back to the WNBA IF NOT I UNDERSTAND 💯💯💯💯
🐐
That man took her away from the Lynx!!! 🏀🏀
so you think a WNBA team is more important than an innocent man’s freedom?
I swear I just seen nippsy at 1:18
This is not 2021
He been dead 3 years
People will just put a title on anything 🤔
*Don't get too big but S/O to you for freeing the man from jail.*
Did she retire from the WNBA?
She never made it official, but yes. She stopped playing 2 years ago to to work on prison reform, and to help free a man who was wrongfully convicted. His conviction was overturned, and she married him a few months after that.
Hello maya
THE REAL DEAL. THIS IS THE EVIDENCE OF US BEING WHO THE MOST HIGH HAS CALLED US TO BE....THE CHOSEN CHILDREN OF GOD (BLACKS/REAL JEWS).
IF YOU'RE READING THIS MESSAGE KNOW THAT JESUS LOVES YOU.HE DIED FOR YOUR SINS AND ROSE AGAIN.GIVE HIM YOUR LIFE TODAY.HE WANTS TO BE A PART OF YOUR LIFE.HE'S WAITING ON YOU TO GIVE YOU PEACE AND ETERNAL LIFE WITH HIM.
Welp by the looks of it she won't be playing anytime soon lol
🤦🏾♂️ 😊
if she's happy who cares.
I know I wasn't the only thinking that 😂😂😂
@@JDOGFTW I don't think fat people are generally happy. Less productive and more depression.
@@brett19890 I’m not fat but right now I’m depressed af 🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️
Maya looks good 😍😍😍
She got big...
😂🤣😂🤣😂
You think?!?
In a good way square
@@MrDiipp No good way in getting big.
I think she is pregnant.
I want to know she retired from basketball
