@@teammmaArabic Alexander Shabliy's wrestling, footwork (kicking), jiu-jitsu, fight IQ, grаррling, саrdio and sambo level is very bad. Arman Tsarukyan can't defeat Usman Nurmagomedov and Islam Маkhachev
I hope coach javier teach usman that if he ever gets eye pocket again to never turn his back to his opponent especially when the referee didn't say stop. Thankfully Shabliy acted with grace and honor and didn't attack usman when he turned his back but somebody else would have attack even if you got eye pocket. It's protect your self at all times. Look at every fight as if its a real fight and no referee can help you or your opponent Look at geathje for example when he got eye pocket by chandler and turned his back, what happened ? Chandler still attacked and hit geathje and he was lucky he took the punch without getting rocket.
Honorable Coach Mendez, I saw your post training speech at Dagestan and was touched by it when you got emotional talking about the Dagestani team culture. I went through the same experience when I went to Asia and the people there shared the same exact values and treated me with love I had never experienced. I think its because in Western culture, life is individualistic and material driven and everyday is a competition. And so when people like us meet our fellow Eastern cousins or in your case the Dangestani team, we get a glimpse into a culture and a system of values where they put family, religion and devotion towards helping others above self gain - very contrary to our life here in the west where every man is for himself. People like the Dagestanis and many Easterners live very simple and happy lives and it comes as no suprise when we see them, we just get overwhelmed by their kindness. Was this what you experienced and touched you so deeply when you went to Dagestan coach?
Coach everything aside we love you so much.beacuse you care for our guys.we are Muslims you know.and you know Muslim brotherhood.we don't need to be real brothers to love
Congratulations coach congratulations to Usman and thank you so much Osman for mention Gaza my hometown God bless you all free free Palestine Long live Gaza alhamdollah❤
Well done, hard work and sweat paid off, stressful to watch because it was like two good fighters, we knew our brother Will win having coach Jav Khabib and Umar behind him, the kicks were phenomenal, wished to see more ground between the 2 that woulda been so intense lol... God Bless
Shaffi Just didn't have the skills to win, he seemed to have no idea of how to deal with a long southpaw that retreated a lot. His opponent was slow as hell and was only throwing a right hook counter whenever shaffi tried to attack, which was enough to make shaffi not wanting to attack. If shaffi knew how to throw long combination and stand switch in the middle of throwing those combination he would have been able to deal with his opponent. Geathje was doing a lot of that successfully against Poirier in the rematch, he was throwing combination while at the same time also switching stances from conventional to southpaw, shaffi should study that fight. Petr yan is also good with that technique, he was using it a lot in his early ufc fights. Poirier is a nother guy good at it he was rocking max holloway a lot with that technique. A nother way to deal with that southpaw righ hook counter counter would have been for shaffi to simply step in throw a jab to bait a reaction than deep down to avoid the right hook counter and than throwing combinations starting from the body and following upstairs, and he would have dealt with that guy easily.
I definitely felt that ImamShafi was too tentative, and clearly did not show his true abilities against a tricky and dangerous opponent. This was a case of the right mental approach something Khabib talks a lot about when you enter the cage and go to dark places it’s that mental toughness. In that context you have to draw on something personal in your life to strengthen your determination and courage. As you said coach - unbalance the other fighter putting pressure and pace and relentless attacking to break the other fighters will. It’s a very difficult skill - defeat could be the making or the breaking of the fighter. Let’s hope team Khabib can help ImamShafi get stronger.
@shaheryarnaqvi8 Nope. He is helping the growth of mma by being in Bellator/PFL. More stars are being made in PFL/Bellator like Dakota Dichiva. Ufc is becoming a joke a wwe joke
@@walterbarros1854 using his lighthning kicks to manage control and long reach mixed with super fast takedowns and ground control is what reminds me of jon jones and Usman Nurmagomedov
@@alcottdevalte7440 well, you can see this as their potential, yeah its bigger, but nobody will ever fight like Khabib, thats not something you can taught, is on his personality to not give a step back, i talked about Usman's wrestling because he could not take down Shabliy but that does not mean that he is inferior at that age(remember khabib vs Tbow). I think khabib might be the best high pressure fighter in the history of mma. And he looks so dominant than when you see Islam, Usman or Umar they look inferior, but its just that they approach the fight different, Islam loves to create 50/50 situations with the tkd threat, Umar keeps his distance and waits for the right timing to choose his tkds, and Usman uses his striking almost all the time and when they engage in the clinch he use his wrestling.
Can you please ask the question from Usman Nurmagomadov, if he moves to UFC lightweight which fighter would he wish to fight if for a vacant title? And what Coach wishes him to fight?
Alexander Shabliy's wrestling, footwork (kicking), jiu-jitsu, fight IQ, grаррling, саrdio and sambo level is very bad. Arman Tsarukyan can't defeat Usman Nurmagomedov and Islam Маkhachev
Bellator has many elite fighters including fighters that have beaten former and current ufc champs and ranked ufc fighters. He also still has Tofique musaev, Aj McKee, and Mansour Banour, and JJ Wilson to face. Ufc only has 4 lightweights that will be challenging. Think about it, Michael Chandler is ranked number 7 in the ufc 😂😂😂. Usman Nurmagomedov and Shabily would run through him. Mma level is much closer now. Mma is growing
Coach Javier plays the role of 'Dad' so perfectly for his fighters.❤️ Incredible COACH
Umar and Usman, these guys are incredible!!!
Big win for Usman against very tough and top level giuy
Coach your legacy is growing you achieved so much, that ita difficult to ever top this! Your work will stay for ever remembered in MMA and UFC
Usman is skilful and strong fighter!

Pleasure to always watch these guys fight. So high level and technical
Hey coach. This was very underrated fight i hope people someday will understand the gravity of this fight.❤

Chandler is dirty toxic bull. Who loses for money. He doesn't respect his body, family. Takes the beating and blood shamelessly
@@tauseefahmad87Plenty ufc fans loved him for all the bangers he was a part of. They cheer him because they know he will brawl
FATHERS PLAN
Congratulations coach on another one.
Glad to see Umar was ok after that vicious choke
Can't wait to see Usman in UFC soon!
After Dubai fight in sha allah
Usman Nurmagomedov the Champ.

_Yeah, Amru always went crazy whenever Usman fight. I watched Abubakar had to calm him down one time._

He had the power and the skills but somehow looked like he forgot how to use them, mental confidence is a huge factor in a fight
❤❤❤
Team Aka is the best in History
So when Usman will sign with UFC.
Both of them should be in the ufc...islam shld defend his title a few.more times and move on to 170
Uzbek sila
The timing on those Shabliy quick counter rights is something else.
Team khabib has a team and it will rein
khabib - umar dont tapped, go sleep..go sleep..
There’s only aj McKee left for usman unless he clears up pfl as well
Usman needs to fight Tofique musaev and Mansour Banour too. Possibly JJ Wilson. JJ Wilson has better jui jitsu than 90% of ufc fighters
@@hybrid.catastrophic.impact6071 tofiq lost to shabily so he needs 3-4 wins
@shaheryarnaqvi8 No he doesn't. Tofique strikes almost as great as Shabily. He is a good test for Usman
@@hybrid.catastrophic.impact6071 we going to ufc baby hit waisting more time

you are the best coach Javier and you have great team there in AKA good guys
Coach the company lied to Usman they should've paid him the one million
Usman is the closest style to young Jon Jones
A side from the eye poking yeah, very similar aprouch. I will even say that he is a more skilled version of Jones.
@@walterbarros1854 using his lighthning kicks to manage control and long reach mixed with super fast takedowns and ground control is what reminds me of jon jones and Usman Nurmagomedov
True. Dagestani Jon Jones.

I wish Usman wouldn't use Islam's walkout music. Otherwise good win against an excellent opponent.
Really tough opponent! Great job Usman!!!
Coach, did you guys feel this fight was a lot like the Umar vs Sandhagen
I’m muslim I respect ImamShafi, but Remember that Kid, Jordan Newman. Really good Prospect 😤
Shabliv made this fight boring .
He was not aggresive .
Usman did well after an year lay off congrats coach and team khabib
it’s funny any time his fighters lose he has nothing to do with them even when he is in their corner . smart coach😂
I don’t watch Bellator so I didn’t know Shabliy was that good. Safe fight game plan overall and got the W 🙌
Javier Mendez is the real deal... One of the best striking coach!!!
Congrats team khabib and Javier for victory 🎉
Мистер Хавьер Мендес приезжайте в Дагестан! Хинкал с "допингом"буду угощать! 😊
Basically coach Javier always talks facts and sensible... period
Wresting may need some more work in the sense that he couldnt take down Shabliy as he should, I know that guy is good but still
And yet it's told that Usman, Umar and Islam are much better than Khabib everywhere, which I never understood.

And he looks so dominant than when you see Islam, Usman or Umar they look inferior, but its just that they approach the fight different, Islam loves to create 50/50 situations with the tkd threat, Umar keeps his distance and waits for the right timing to choose his tkds, and Usman uses his striking almost all the time and when they engage in the clinch he use his wrestling.
Congratulations on the victory, it was a great performance by Usman, against a very tough opponent in Shabily.
well there is no point for rankings is just a joke whatever uncle Dana white wants. Anyway i don't have money to get the ticket i just get the PPV
yes
Fathers Elite Plan … Coaches Elite Development ….. Fighters Elite Delivery
When these three come together …. 💥 will happen 🔥🔥🔥
Khabib 30-0 after this fight)
Not father's plan but Javier's plan!
Can you please ask the question from Usman Nurmagomadov, if he moves to UFC lightweight which fighter would he wish to fight if for a vacant title? And what Coach wishes him to fight?
In football we have Don Carlo
In MMA we have Don Javier
How is the paycheck bij Bellator as a champ? Will be interesting to know compare to the UFC
Facelift.. you can tell by sucking the saliva from corners of mouth..
CONGRATULATIONS USMAN💪. FREE CAIN VELASQUEZ 🙏😇🙏
USMAN NUR MUHAMMADOV WILL STAY AS CHAMPION FOR LONG LONG TIME GUYS
Coach javier is a real gangster, he can walk in a street with khabib,islam, usman nobody can touch them, only if you have a gun
Alexander Shabliy's wrestling, footwork (kicking), jiu-jitsu, fight IQ, grаррling, саrdio and sambo level is very bad. Arman Tsarukyan can't defeat Usman Nurmagomedov and Islam Маkhachev
Coach don't allow to do the fight at coca cola arena. It supports israel
When is he going to the UFC?? He is wasting his talent at bellator!
Bellator has many elite fighters including fighters that have beaten former and current ufc champs and ranked ufc fighters. He also still has Tofique musaev, Aj McKee, and Mansour Banour, and JJ Wilson to face. Ufc only has 4 lightweights that will be challenging. Think about it, Michael Chandler is ranked number 7 in the ufc 😂😂😂. Usman Nurmagomedov and Shabily would run through him. Mma level is much closer now. Mma is growing
I think Khabib Goal is to dominate both UFC and Bellator.
