All islam makhachev hater turning to Arman biggest fans now.. 😂😂
Picking someone in a fight doesn't mean you hate their opponent
I respect how great Islam is. But like me a lot of fans like to pick sides and go with the underdog I was with Charles over Islam, Volk over Islam, DP over Islam not sure if ill go with Arman over Islam but yeah its a sick fight legit is Islams toughest test part from Leon
@@american1207 but cheering for conor over khabib then jumping to Poirier then to Gaethje then when khabib retires you jump all the way to Oliveira against islam then to volk then to volk then to Poirier and now you suddenly become an arman fan.. is a hell of a "It doesn't mean i hate those Dagestanis tho"
@@AzelVonAzrael did Alvarez pick all those guys against Khabib and Islam? Fans just turn everything into "You hate my favorite fighter," whenever someone picks against them or criticizes them.
It’s hilarious arman went from the most disliked because he fought Charles to all of a sudden now being loved even though people called him a fraud and got away with a “Robbery” vs Charles
And then when Islam beats Arman we are going to say Benny, BSD, and Gamrot beats Islam. It never ends throw moicano to beat Islam too lol
Not true. It’s fair to say after Arman, unless Conor does something spectacular against Chandler. Then no one else would seem to have a chance against Islam. BSD, Fiziev, Gamrot, Max, Justin, and Benny can give Islam and wound give Islam a good fight but islam would just be too much at the end of the day for those guys
To be honest, Gamrot prepared Dustin so well, I’m more convinced that he would have better success against Islam than Arman would.
@@oleg3913 Gamrot has 0 striking threat
@@user-zo4iz2nv5u not many wrestlers do. That’s why they go for takedowns
I think BSD could beat him. Maybe gamrot. Def Arman can. Islam has looked very beatable in many fights idk why everyone act like he is a prime Mighty Mouse or Jon jones or gsp level of fighter. He is great but far from unbeatable. I also wouldn’t mind see him fight 170 but I think he have a tough night at the office with Leon and a slaughter against Shavkat
Everyone is very confident that Makhachev's opponent will beat him then Makhachev wins and life just moves on 😂
So confident he was a 6-1 favorite…
Arman is Arman not a everyone
@@Krisso889he lost his first fight though
@JohnJoatan like you did with the guy in your profile pic?
@@Krisso889bro bro we already watched that movie and we know the ending lol.
Michael Johnson stepped in to get the beating of his life that Alvarez was supposed to get. The UFC robbed us of 2 extra years of Khabib being the reigning LW champion.
Exactly
LOL… Tony was next in line bro, not Khabib. He got screwed over
Everyone beat Islam and Khabib according to Alvarez
😂😂😂 you are right in this😂😂😂
its crazy how Islam wins the fights and there opponents get the praise. Islam fought Alex and Dustin who came in the fight with nothing to lose and everything to gain. Those types of fights are very dangerous.
I guess it's coz they fight on short notice whereas islam has long breaks
@@ItsameAlexso Alex fought on short notice in the first fight?
We all know the reason people support Dustin or Alex against Islam.
He is from Russia and he is a muslim.
Tell me who do you praise the most the 1 that lost or the guy who is in a win streak of 14?
You like it or you don’t HE WILL BE THE CHAMPION FOR A LONG TIME IN SHA ALLAH!
@@ItsameAlex lol they don't
@@maxamedcabdullahi3693lol you always make everything into Race and religion.
People support Usman before too, he has a Muslim name doesn't he? It's because he was an active champion, always defending his title, many fights a year.
All of a sudden arman has fans now lol. The charles fight proved that Islam is STILL better than Arman. Islam has the skills to ko and sub you. Arman just held charles down.
lol arman have great wrestling, Islam have great grappling. Very different skill set
@@giacalonebuilding4443Even Arman's head coach doesn't believe that 😂😂😂
@@TheLightweightsAreMakachevSonsHis coach from many years ago, his current team believes he beats Makhachev and is ready to
@@elgreco998 Lmao you are a joke bro. Go watch that interview again.
@@TheLightweightsAreMakachevSons Who cares what his ex coach thinks? Some bum for all I care, his current team is what set him up to knock the #4 Dariush out in a minute and beat one of the best fighters in the world (Charles Oliveira) so I care more about how they view Arman’s trajectory
Even Arman coach said Arman is not ready for islam after Charles fight this guy is pure hate of Islam
No he didn’t, his ex coach from many years ago did. His current team does believe Arman can beat him. Stop spreading misinfo just because clueless people like
a few days ago, a new interview was released with the same coach where he said that Islam has some holes in wrestling and that Arman has a 50/50 chance with him, and he also believes that Arman would have defeated Porier easier than Islam
@@tobirama7333 Send the interview
@@elgreco998 His coaches at ATT also thought Dustin beats Islam, how that turned out for them?
@@Hamza-jn8dj I’m countering OP who said his current coach thinks he can’t beat Islam
Says the guy ducked khabib and fought McGregor and got knocked tf out salty af 🤣🤣🤣
That never happened but your name checks out
Yea the dude does have point if your an MMA fan 2017-2018 you would Elvarez ducked khabib and they gave him that Conor fight instead
@@mma-vs8vi You would have to be crazy to turndown a payday and pick Khabib
Eddie is not scared of anyone lol. Conor wanted the opportunity to fight for a second title. The UFC was obviously not going to deny him the chance and Eddie certainly was not going to say no to the biggest pay check of his life
Ur name - say no more hahaha we kno where u stand
Staph infected BSD crumbled against Dustin in round 2. Staph infected Islam out struck and out grappled Dustin, won at least 3/4 rounds coming into the 5th and then submitted him.
One judge had it even going to 5th. So did a lot of other fighters
@@josiericaro3347 In a card where one judge gave 2/3 rounds to Almeida against Kopylov, and one judge gave 4/5 rounds to Costa, Im surprised that only one judge gave 2/4 rounds to Dustin going into the 5th. The judges were the beyond ridiculous. But the fact is Islam outstruck Dustun in all rounds, Dustin's biggest round is 4th, even in that round Islam did well, but Dustin got that big elbow that led to the massive cut on Islam's forehead, So i dont mind giving that round to Dustin. But other than that, I dont see any way Dustin won any other round. As far as "lot of fighters" who? Everyone I saw, including all youtubers had it either 4-0 or 3-1 to Islam going into that 5th.
@@rma1563 werent all those scores by the same guy ? Dave tierelli or something. Everything else was as usual. He didnt judge the main event.
And?…. I feel like the second half of your comment disappeared
well said. You could tell from the opening minute that islam was slow, lethargic, and had a fraction of the power as his fights with Charles and vokanovski. When he makes quick work of Arman the haters will turn into fans.
Alvarez was always a huge khabib hater. Makes sense he would hate on Islam too
islam will keep the fight standing and tko arman the head kick is also there
Arman will Beat Islam and after that Islam will be Christian
ARMAN BEATS NO BODY AFTER THIS ..😂😂😂
26:27 for Eddie's comment on Arman V Islam. Just my opinion, Islam beats Arman.
Easily too imo
Arman will Beat him you will see
@@Krisso889ok insha Allah ...we will see...after the match...😊😊😊 And still...
Islam submitted Dustin who ko'd Eddie. Such a shame and lame with all the hate when Islam should just be embraced at this point
.
It's like islam didn't beat Arman with a unanimous decision already
And Islam had food poisoning at that time..😂
it's like dustin didn't beat justin already.... oops... it's like a fight can go differently the second time around
@@ItsameAlex Yet your comments are always BS. First, second, third., etc.
Lol. Hes just jealous of Islam.
@JohnJoatan says the one with a half naked dude as his profile picture😂
14:23...Khabib vs Islam. "Not something I would be interested in watching", 1 second later. "It would be a chess match, only HIGH-LEVEL fighters would tune in for". Yep, you said it 🤣
😂😂😂 Eddie is all over the place with his statements and opinions.
They're boring fighters, dominant but boring.
@@shinobi600What a bum casual comment.
@@CoolAdam247 his comment stands. No one cared for khabib until he beat conor and no one cared for Islam until he was gifted title shot and won. Both king of the casual fan base who jump on the ship who's going fastest. Neither won the fans before because they were boring.
@@Know3ody Islam finished last 3 fights out of 4, finished the 3 before that aswell, and his fight with volk was one of the best fights of the year, him against dustin was a war, knocked volks ass out in the 2nd fight and subbed charles in the second round and it was entertaining.
I guess entertaining for you is just standing there and brawling, go watch mike perry bro :D
EDDIIEEEEE, DINNERS READYYYYYYYYYY - wife
She had the most annoying voice ever 😂
😂😂😂😂 I heard that in her voice outside the octagon lmfao😂
2 mins into Netflix and chill: EDDIIIIIIIIIIE
Eddie is such a great dude. The way he spoke of Dustin was super cool
Eddie is speaking facts about Arman, Islam and Khabib. Fans are just crying
look at armaan vs olivera and islam vs olivera lol.
Or you can just look at arman vs islam
Mma math doesn't always work. Garbrandt > Cruz > TJ > Garbrandt. Strickland > Izzy > Periera > Strickland.
@@american1207Islam already beat Arman. No mma math needed.
@@Scholarofonecandle yea and periera beat izzy the 1st time. Conor beat Poirier. Sera and Hughes beat GSP. Dustin beat Justin. Usman beat Leon. Pena beat Nunes. Andrade Rose. Cormier Stipe. Cruz Faber. O'Malley Vera. Conor Nate.
@@american1207Jones beat cormier nunes beat valentina rose beat Joanne ronda beat tate we can go on and on
I never take this guy seriously
Eddie was also confident that he was gonna beat Conor, so his words mean nothing
Eddie is so off on the islam v khabib matchup. fans would go crazy for it.
Now there new daddy is Arman 😂
Sorry Eddie but your fellow Brazilian fighters will never beat any of the fighter from the Nurmagomedov school, no matter how much salty you're on them. Lol
UFC needs to sign Eddie for 1 or 2 fights
Kevin Lee vs Eddie Alvarez
Tony Ferguson vs Eddie Alvarez
that fight is gonna a really good fight, if you hate grappling or wrestling watch that fight you will start liking wrestling. though ignore eddie he hates anybody from the khabib camp, since khabib said something negative about him back in the conor/eddie fight
Oh god , happy that this dude isn't in ufc anymore his wife screaming ediiiiiiiiiiiooo when he was getting whooped... was a such annoying and embarrassing moment to the wariors sport.. ngl lool😂
This is the same as Anthony Pettis saying khabib will get schooled by McGregor xD They just dont wanna see the Muslim guy keep on winning
I guess the cut on Islam face changed the optics of the fight for a lot of people, Islam comfortably held and own and got the better of Dustin in pretty much every exchange of standup. He wan't hurt once in the whole fight alot of which was on the feet against the best striker and Arman no way near Dustin in terms of striking.
Big respect to Eddie and Dustin but… saying the belts don’t matter and it’s just for the casual fans is coping… it does matter. It’s legacy, it’s history and it means you reached the very top. Facts
Arman won a split decision against Charles. He ended the fihht trying to survive a choke.
Watch Islam vs Chris wade and Islam vs Mansour Barnoui, both great grapplers.
Even as an Islam fan, I say that Arman has a good chance of beating Islam. This is because Arman is EXTREMELY hungry. Islam doesn’t look very motivated to be in 155 anymore. Probably sick of the extreme weight cutting.
As a Arman fan we know Islam will beat Arman again😊😊😊
I'm also seeing that, Islam doesn't have that hunger anymore and Armani is starving
we need eddie doing commentary or breakdown videos bcuz he clearly has a great explanatory ability in regards to mma
All BS aside: Arman is No. 1 Contender. He’s next in line. He’s the only fighter who has multiple options on the feet and on the ground against Islam. He’s got the dog mentality and is hungry young and upcoming. They fought 5 years ago. The rematch will be a completely different fight stylistically.
Didnt eddie said dustin will beat makhachev , eddie is a clown
Super Salty Eddie
All of a sudden all the McGregor,Charles,Justin ,volk, DP fans will now board the Arman train
No one cares what this guy think
Eddie is right. The biggest reason of Islam's dominance is because he faces mostly strikers. Islam is obviously trying to avoid Arman
@freeminni dude I think u r casual. After post fight what islam said. He said I m not interested in rematch but if dana wants let's go I will fight arman. How suddenly dustin fan and islam haters become arman fans😂😂
Ducking Arman a guy he beat already yeah sure go to sleep
@@peacefuldecadence328 Arman was 22, it was his ufc debut and he took the fight on 2 weeks notice. A lot has changed in 5 years
@@freeminniExactly. Too bad not a lotta people understand that.
@@freeminnidude, you must be new here… alot has changed? Like Makhachev has gotten any better either since then I guess 😅
Khabib saga repeating itself all over again, lol… haters looking for the next fighter to beat Islam
THE UNDERGROUND KING!!! One of the best to ever do it!
Islam’s striking is way way advanced compared to Arman’s.
Eddie saying Dustin's performance against Islam was similar to Iaquinta's performance against Khabib was fukin traversty.
Would be super fun for UFC to give Eddie one last fight
#EddieAlvarez vs #NateDiaz 💯💯 or any one (/more😂) of the #SkrapPack
yeah I think the more Islam wins a fight the more haters there will be Please choose a new opponent from now on because Islam will defeat him, and then if Leon remains champion Islam will defeat him as well.
I'll have to agree with Eddie, Arman will finish Islam
Arman can't even finish Oliviera.
Rabbi ariel servantyahu hating on islam
Eddie Alvarez ducked Khabib
Arman has so many haters, it’s ridiculous.
Don't worry..when he's officially schedule to fight Islam, he will gain lots of supporters from Islam haters 😂😂😂
@@moonmcken Arman has way more haters than Islam.
Great stuff as always. Eddie lowkey one of the best MMA Hour guests. Learned and honest!
Another blessed Eddie interview. He's always humble and down to earth with his opinions.
Great talk , one of the best ever love Eddie's mind for the sport we need this guy as a commentator somewhere
Haters jumping on armans train nown😂😂😂
Arman already lose to charles. I don't think he have a chance againt makhachev.
Imagine arman try to submit islam 😂😂😂
He beat Charles by split decision wtf are you talking about?
@@MilesP777 he almost tap
@@MalcomRightalmost is almost 99 % of the fighters would tap Arman is different and he will beat Islam you will see it, Islam Change his name after this fight
@@Krisso889 we will see. Be ready for the new excuse after that. 😁
@@MalcomRight ne excuses Arman will be champ and Islam will be Christian after this fight
Eddie gave lot of insight. Very articulate and well versed.
EA was extremely confident about beating Conor too 😅😅😅
Arman is young and likely will be champion weather its soon or later. Dude is crazy skilled
Nook think just because arman can wrestle n strike means he’ll beat Islam
It’s all about fight IQ Islam fight IQ is way better than arman no disrespect
its okay brother .. everyone have his confident before cage close
Journey of a fan from Oliveira to tsarkuyan via Poirier and volkonoski 😂
A lot of ppl dont realize that Islam already beat Arman in a unanimous decision.. Arman is great, but he is a step behind when it comes to Islam...
Also, Khabib is easily best lightweight fighter of all time. Not throwing shade on any others, he was just on an entire different level.
Arman cant strike with islam. Islam has grown more than arman has since they last fought. Watching arman struggle with everyone, what makes this guy think arman wins? These guys so desperately want to see islam lose. They are so jealous of people who are better than them
Arman is more hungry and he will beat Islam you will see it
@@Krisso889 🤣🤣
@@1.21Gigawatts_ Islam after this fight he will be Christian 🗿 we Armenians are different Arman don’t need money he is already richer than 95% of the fighters in the ufc. He fights because he wants to be the best and Islam is no longer hungry, his performance in this fight was bad
@@Krisso889 take your medication
I'm with You Alvarez🙏🏿
Eddie is an excellent MMA analyst, is able to see those granular level details which others don't. His conclusions are well educated.
Old Man HATER lost to Conor and Dustin, now turning to Arman 🤣
It's going to different than first fight for sure..more like Usman vs Colby fight... Islam is better in striking...he just out struck Dustin by 147-104 and hurt Charles before submitting him,ko volk and has 7 finish in last 8...arman can't take Islam take down and hold him there for submission or ground and pound... gamrot out grapple arman and won while gamrot isn't such good striker...arman was also hurt badly and wobble by short notice jaoquim Silva...let's see what happens.
Man,I'd love to learn martial arts from Eddie Alvarez,so knows so well....and by martial arts I mean the striking part mostly😊
Khabib was right when he left the sport, you beat one the other one comes, you beat another one, another will come, and this never ends. If you are not smart enough they will push you like Tony Ferguson, I am courious how he will end up when he will be old person, I think his health will be in very bad condition frmo the head traumas he has had in the recent years. I wish him all the best but respect your limits, stop when you feel you can not do more do not let others play you like a small child.
And I must apologize as well because he HAS been a champion and his opinion DESERVES to be heard especially begite mine. Even if I think his championship revolves around circumstance, he still capitalized and still deserves recognition so… yeah. His insight is knowledgeable and I should not have reacted out of emotion due to me thinking he was disrespectful of an amazing athlete in Islam. Uncalled for on my part . Period 💯
Alvarez didn’t know that Islam and Arman already fought and Arman got beaten.
Areal didn’t do his job coz he didn’t tell Alvarez the guy got beaten by Islam.
And he got beaten again by Gamrot.
Eddie Alvarez, my brother, is a legend. I miss him
Eddies analysis was great and his advice for Dustin to not beat himself up was also great. Dont know why the video title is so edgy when the thing itself was interesting
Teenagers were into mma when I was in HS. I wasn’t the only one but maybe that was just my circle
Islam has defended his belt against 1 divisional lightweight. Although he's an exceptional fighter, Islam needs to defend the belt a few more times.
Some people is shocked to know Eddie Alvarez has kids in Hs and one graduating this year lol.
Bring back Eddie A. To breakdown fights. He's outstanding!!!!!!!
I don’t stand by most of what Eddie is saying but the stuff about Islam vs khabib is incredibly on point. He does take more risks and he has been hurt and cut because of it but I turn you have a more complete standing martial artist so it will be exciting to see the rest of his career
Eddie Alvarez is incredible in breaking down fights!!!!!
Everyone does not have to pick your fighter to win. Can we say many of yall were Poirier haters? Maybe so
Armans abnormal flexibility will be a major factor for sure
Does eddie even know Islam already beat Arman or is Helwani just hiding that💀, why are they both acting like Islam hasn’t fought Arman before
Eddie understands fighting extremely well
crazy ngl, 1 thing to say it's close another to say he confidently beats the PFP #1. I need to see it to believe, let's hope it happens in MSG like Islam said!
Eddie analysis is spot on
Does Eddie even know Islam has fought Arman? Of course Ariel doesnt bring that up
It's either dustin had a really good performance or islam isn't as good as everyone thinks... khabib ran thru dustin while islam struggled. Islam struggled against volk to in the first meeting. Arman and dustin are teammates, I do believe they can put a game plan together to beat islam
Alvarez vs McGregor BKFC LETS GO
Im sorry but Arman has no chance of beating Islam , Arman biggest weapon is wrestling and Islam is better than him also Islam is better at submission way better the only things Arman has against Islam is cardio and that's it
It s funny to hear that from someone avoiding the wrestler like Khabib and being busted by Conor and Poirier.
When you didnt feel the pain you cant compare.
IMO i think Arman have better freestyle wrestling now but only to guy who dont have takedown defense. He has no grappling transition his wrestling is only to maintain on the ground and win rounds like Oliveira said. And a little ground and pound.
Otherwise he makes mistake and leave holes.
I think the best wrestler in LW now is Gamrot for what he brings to Poirier in his camp. But like Arman he has good defense on scrambling and takedown but zero finish.
The only way for Arman to win is the point. He ll never submit Islam for sure
Anyway we ll see soon enough.
I dont think Eddie is hating on Islam in any Way but Its a weird take on Arman. Islam already fought 2 great grapplers in Oliviera and Volk and beat both. And he outboxed Dustin. Where would Arman win? Does he have better wrestling? No. Better bbj? No. Better striking? Hell No. So how would he beat Islam?
Eddie got it totally wrong. Once conor loses this fight with chandler its a great opportunity for dustin and conor to run it back since both are coming off huge losses.
Nah 4 times is too much
Everyone can beat Islam makhachev but but somehow when cage door closes its night night 🌙
I just wanna see 155 Max fight Islam. That would be a war!
Lol 😂 haters can switch teams Islam Kos Arman
Charles was a great wrestler, JuJitsu etc and he was no match for Islam, Maybe Arram is that guy to beat Islam but it’s going be very tough no doubt about it .
If alvarez can put his house on arman i will consider his opinion rather it is hate against makhahev
Great guy never met em
It will be a great fight. All I know is I am watching. Islam will be favored. If odds are too high for Islam probably a good time to bet Arman.
