Definitely! Also fake christians that only remember their religion when Islam is mentioned saying "Jesus is King" but I bet they haven't read the Bible 😂
You can feel the change of mindframe Islam has since becoming the number 1 pound for pound fighter. He's on killer mode right now. It's scary how he subtly welcomed the idea of fighting his friend, training partner, and someone who admires him in the person of Belal Muhammad. It's like he said he's open to fight anyone not named Khabib Nurmagomedov.
Yeah, almost like a whole different person. I just watched his interview with DC and you can feel this kind of dark, sinister, boogeyman aura. Almost gave me creeps tbh. Guy's different now for sure.
Islam beats volk in volks hometown by striking - boo he lost that fight Islam beats volk by flawless ko - boo he only beat a 145er Islam wants to fight Dustin - boo he is ducking arman Islam waits for arman - boo islam is inactive If Islam beats Dustin - boo he is a weight bully Islam wants leon - boo no stay in your divsion. It doesnt matter what Islam does and how good he does it. There is a certain type of fans who dislike him for obvious reasons.
It's hilarious that I've seen a few interviews today, especially the one with Laura Sanko, and they all play the same card: "Dustin is destined to be champion." They say he's better, he can land a punch, and Islam is meant to be a sitting duck counting pennies. Brett almost sounds like he's begging, "Come on, Dustin is destined to be champion, let him win." It's mind-boggling that even professional analysts get so emotional and biased in their predictions and breakdowns of the fight. That's why I always say, reflect on the fighters' resumes and their character-that will tell you everything.
They just try to build Dustin up to hype up the fight. Make it more of a draw in people's mind so they tune in to watch. Business move. When everyone is too predictable its boring. You need to learn to think critically to understand what's going on.
Exactly what I thought this interviewer tried to put words into Islams mouth so that he too can sympathise with Dustin and he wanted to damage Islams mental state, fortunately Islam survived because of English barrier
Brett Okamoto always take the best interviews and ask the best questions, way ahead of the game! love the way he opened up with fishing question to keep Islam calm and break the ice.
You can like Islam and Dustin you know ? I am cheering for both. It doesn’t always have to be either or, especially when both fighters respect each other. The fans have more problems with eachother than the fighters themselves 😂.
He is soo calm and fearless ......itś so scary...I mean look at him no Fear at all even when he walks into the ring...Soo calm...Unbelieveable !!! Respect he is UFC KING !!!!
What he was implying is: its not worth killing a animal just to use its fins for soup and throw the rest of the shark away. Its not right to take its life for basically nothing.
Islam wins here,cant you just tell by him,the quiet and relaxed cool and collected man is very dangerous,he will stick to Dustin like glue,these boys are a totally different level
@@draco2xxI think Shavkat is the only one of those 3 that has a legitimate chance at beating Islam. Tbh I think Islam will beat Dustin and Arman and then try for double champ status at WW in early 2025, and it may just be Shavkat waiting for him there because I don’t see Leon or Belal defending against Shavkat.
@redhothchilipeppers6299 ilia topuria is just as good as islam and his striking is better than islam's got more power too. leon's striking is also better than islam plus he's very well rounded so don't think islam will walk through leon. shavkat on the other hand is just too tough for his own with his rugged fighting style. if islam moves up to welterweight, then we can possibly see a super fight with ilia vs arman for double champ champ
@MRDisguise lol man Dustin is only a boxer. Islam is a much better kickboxer than Dustin and a pretty good boxer as well. Islam has got everything. He is pound for pound no.1 for a reason.
@MRDisguise lol this shows you know nothing about MMA. Dustin doesn't even kick. He is just a boxer and Islam is the true definition of mixed martial arts.
I truly in my heart have always believed Islam is the best in the world for a while. His wrestling is ridiculous, his Judo is amazing, and he is underrated af as a striker and the striking has only gotten better. Hes not just a jack of all trades but he has mastered all of his skills.
Islam going to play it safe with the wrestling fundamentals. Dustin has to keep it on the feet as long as possible. Dustin’s best chance is to catch him in a wild standup exchange. His rate of success is relatively high in those situations.
You're bugging. Islam is way technical and fast on his feet. + he can kickboxing and maintain a good distance. Dusting has to wish for a lucky shot which i don't see happening.
At some point he's gonna have to do that blitz with his shoulders square where he pushes forward alternating left and right punches. I don't know if they will stay on feet long enough for him to win a decision or to wear him out waiting on the perfect shot. He's gonna have to win with a move like Max did.
@JrE-il7cf he's already been knocked out once in his career. Don't blame him for taking the safe/boring route. I'm not a fan of Islam's, but you can't deny the skill. Also that 50 passed USADA tests jacket is such BS lol.
@@iam_ismell No that's age your mother's brother proposed to her after he got her pregnant. Their wedding had a decent Mormon crowd or so I heard, I wish I was there.
Team v team in the motherfuckin street. Because Islam is so comfortable with his level he never feels challenged and you never see him lose control.. but don't let the little brother persona fool ya.. team v team in the motherfuckin street
Have you ever seen Team Khabib lol? They are champions in other organizations, Judo, Sambo, wrestling .. Connor has no team and his friends are alcoholic at best.
🚨 In case people missed the shark part, Islam caught a shark out fishing, guide he was with said they can cut off the fins and make a soup of them. This is a sad and brutal practice, where the bleeding discarded finless shark is thrown off the boat and it sinks to the bottom of the sea where it just drowns. But Islam refused to do this and let the shark go. ✊💙
He didn't get the destiny question, think it was to deep for him to understand in english with no translator. He will go back train, understand "destiny" and answer it properly. Love islam and his team and how they are so good at certain things but also still learning the ways in others. Its always a learning process for everyone. It's nice to have a fight week where the fighters are both calm and there isnt that anamosity between them. It will be a great fight, I am root for islam but I wouldnt hate it if Dustin wins either.
When he says that Dustin doesn't believe he can beat him, he's kidding. Islam understands exactly why Dustin knows he can win. That doesn't mean Dustin think it will be easy or that it'll even happen. But Islam understands. I love his delivery when he says it.
Theres always comparisons between Islam and Khabib but they are very different people in their approach to fighting. Islam is so relaxed with the press and has he mentions wants to have fun, unlike Khabib who always came across as pinpoint focused and stoic 100% of the time
I love Dustin, he's a diamond guy. Very humble, but Islam is my guy. I hope he takes the W with this one too. You just never know with fights especially at elite level. One mistake can cost it for any of them.
The reason i dont think dustins stand up has a chance is because Islam never slugs in the center. He does a combo then step back. He is too good in defense. He wont risk getting knocked out. Dustin excells at slugfests like against Chandler.
It feels like he’s using a lot of self affirmations now, he references that he is the best and another level many times over here and in other interviews
When he said teamVteam in streetfight.. he was smiling and you can see the mirth in his eyes, lol. His trolling the irish guy with that one or his trolling someone on his team who he knows would reprimand him for saying that in public. He means it but you can just see when a big part of what he's saying is done so to spark a reaction from someone or the audience.
He caught a shark the guy said cut its fins and make soup and he was like nah that’s no good. And he probably has no idea that shark fin soup is a cruel international problem. He’s just a good human being because of Islam
islam the truth, his attention to detail+ skill is out of this world …. altho i’d love to see dustin finally get the belt … i don’t want islam to lose either. crazy , let’s goo.
The level of calmness and confidence shows how dangerous he is.
🎯
You nailed it! Both him and khabib are both very calm when speaking and just state facts and show respect to their opponents. Only time khabib did any trash talk was towards Conor but then I realized it wasn't trash talk he really did it 😅

This is true, but this applies to everything and everyone.
Fax bruh
This hatred for Makhachev is not normal.
Fighters shouldn’t even care about fans because fans are just fake
100% right.
Islam is a very polite good guy. He speaks the truth, nobody is on his level, Dustin only has a lucky punch chance.
Brett is such a Conor nut hugger. They could be talking about anything and he’d bring up his crush
Lmao
only 1 comment let me fix that
Mate Bret’s interviewing skills are so poor. They have not improved over many years and he cannot keep the flow going at all.
It sells
It's hilarious that I've seen a few interviews today, especially the one with Laura Sanko, and they all play the same card: "Dustin is destined to be champion." They say he's better, he can land a punch, and Islam is meant to be a sitting duck counting pennies. Brett almost sounds like he's begging, "Come on, Dustin is destined to be champion, let him win." It's mind-boggling that even professional analysts get so emotional and biased in their predictions and breakdowns of the fight. That's why I always say, reflect on the fighters' resumes and their character-that will tell you everything.
lol, they try to change destiny
They just try to build Dustin up to hype up the fight. Make it more of a draw in people's mind so they tune in to watch. Business move. When everyone is too predictable its boring. You need to learn to think critically to understand what's going on.
Who told Brett is analyst ? He is a cardboard😂
