"Less is more" thank you Chael, I've been trying to convince my wife of this for years.
Lol dude.
😂😂😂
The pic makes the comment better
😭😭😂😂
This deserves more likes well played 👏🏻
Khabib's wrestling is like that Bruce Lee quote: "I fear not the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks once, but I fear the man who has practiced one kick 10,000 times." Indeed Uncle Chael, less is more.
Until you blocked or can block that kick…lol. The jack of all trades quote comes to mind in response to his. The full quote I mean lol. Or how about deontay wilder ? Didn’t work so well for him 😑😑 lol chael has been talking a lot of nonsense lately
@@gupstaa didn't work out so well for Wilder? Did you look at his professional record? I'd say he's come pretty far in his career for a one trick pony.
@@JUNAID187 and failed or got saved against top opposition 😑😑😑…he was matched very carefully
Khabib didn't miss weight twice he only missed once at it was against ebal tajilo by half a pound.
Because he broke his ribs In that training camp and couldn't cut the weight properly.
True that….
I don’t understand how people say he had real struggle with Al. Khabib looked like he had fun in there. He doesn’t really committed with the takedowns Al had a wrestling stand the entire fight and it opens up his striking practice. Literally practicing his jab
it looked like Khabib didn't want to hurt him and was trying new things
lol he was calling out to DC when he landed his jabs. It was like he wasn't even taking it seriously lol
@@1armedwolf2003 yes. but for years people kept mentioning the fight as if it was close fight or tough one. it wasn't... it looked like a tough training session for khabib
I felt that Al was kind of letting or being okay with being constantly jabbed in the face because it meant Khabib was content standing where he had some chance of winning.
I think khabib go easy on AI because he did get full camp.. its a gesture of mercy by khabib i guess..
Conor has nightmares where Khabib doesn’t stop after the tap.
Khabib true colors is showing.
Imagine if it was just the two of them. His chicken jaw would have been crushed.
Khabob has turned into a Twitter Karen.
If there wasnt a ref khabib forfeits half his strengths
@@Paul-ts5qw check his twitter he has like 2 recent tweets lmao
Does he not realize how this reflects on him self? "I got beaten up and submitted to a fighter who wasn't even great".
Its not about how it reflects on him, its about the truth.
@@Matt10264 suuuuuure
Dude makes a good point and all y’all can say is “that doesn’t look good on you”, bruh so what it doesn’t make his argument any less valid lmao.
@@Matt10264 and the truth is anyone capable of dominating Justin Gaethje, Dustin Poirier, and Conor Mcgregor is obviously great. Conor is probably the only fighter delusional enough to not admit that.
@@Matt10264 about the truth? They guy is saying Khabib isn't a great fighter even though Khabib dominated him and also dominated a guy he just lost too twice. If you call that fact then it must also be fact that Conor is a completely useless fighter right??
Conor’s mental gymnastics is by far his best quality 😂
Conor "Someone Biles" McGregor!
Conor "I only count KO's" McNuggets: *Tries to submit a BJJ Black belt in his last fight*
LMAOOO
Imagine if his takedown defense was that good
Khabib was the most skilled fighter the UFC had ever seen. Jon Jones barely won against Reyes, meaning they had similar skill. However, nobody was even close to Khabib skillwise.
@@greengoblin9567 your on drugs
I can’t take McGregor seriously anymore. He’s the guy who said “I only count knockouts”. Are you a boxer or a mixed martial artist? LOL
He also went for the takedown after saying that tkdowns don't count lmao
Boxing is a martial art.
@@matthewthompson2440 boxing isn't a mixed martial art
Bro, out of all the shit he's talked, that's the part that gets you?
@@shinmmm6870 look it up.
People just focus on Khabib's grappling, but don't forget this too: In Khabib's whole career, he was never dropped a single time. And he fought some damn good strikers -- Conor, Barboza, Poirier, Gaethje, etc. He dropped Conor, who was considered at the time the best striker in the sport by myself and many. That was totally unexpected, but showed the completeness of his game. I put the most dominant fighter ever as either Khabib or Mighty Mouse.
This is a good point. Round 3 against Connor he was just standing in front of Connor and trading full blows. Against Justin he was able to eat all those leg kicks and keep the pressure on. I think somebody like Islam who has the same level of wrestling as Khabib would lack the grit and ruggedness that Khabib had in those fights and get dropped.
Jesus Christ, by the time Conor fought Khabib he was a drunk, too much Irish whisky in his stomach, and also he was very defensive overly concern with the take down, due to this he was not counter offensive like he used to. Conor had self doubt at that point, the hungry Conor will beat Khabib for sure. This is not to say Khabib is not great, it's just striking beats grappling . Anyone who knows Conor from day 1 knows how heavy his foot was, no tip toeing, no concentration like he used to, this is due to the fact that he was too pre-occupied with the take down, i will say over plan, if he had just got in trying to make a name for himself and let himself go, he would do just fine, i say this because he could knock down Diaz.
I call Khabib a size bully kinda like a weight bully but not exactly it lol, he is not in the right weight, why didn't he moved up? while Conor moved up and won? Khabib is a strange fellow, he is naturally bigger and stronger for the lightweight and yet if he moves up he became smaller lol. Most of his dominance comes not so much from superior skill but from superior power and strength, also due to his discipline and training, i am not hating Khabib nor am i Conor fan, but that is the truth. If Khabib moves up weight and cannot do the things he used to do that means it is not a skill but rather a power, because skill works even on stronger guys, that's why it's skill. Khabib never fought in lightweight because it was a weight and an era full of strikers, if Khabib meet his match in terms of size and strength i don't think he will be able to do what he called mauling.
@@jugg9140Conor was clearly a weight bully in all the fights he won in feather weight , and striking doesn't beat wrestling don't know what drunk logic you used to justify that
Conor was a weight bully to u ?then what is max dustin ... a lot many are taller n biggr than conor at featherweight.....conor was never a bully he went up two weight divisions(though he is undefeatedat featherweight) but khabib? That guy was scared to face usman jorge colby leon... guy was also scared to face charles..... he also didn't gave rematchto mcgregor... he is a coward😂😂@@ibadrizvi5740
Everybody knew exactly what Khabib was gonna do, but he was so good at it you couldn’t stop him. One of the few best to ever do it
True bro, like Messi, everybody know he's gonna cut to the left, still works everytime lmao they do what they do so well, its another level
Can't be the best without defending more than he did. Was definitely good
He still is the best in the weight class. Don't be a casual.
@@jewishlawyer9454 for me to believe he was the best he needed more title defenses. Title defenses are against higher caliber than most of his flights. All I'm saying is he can't be the greatest without more title defenses. Title defenses do way more damage.
@@matthewklein9225 has the most at 155
Chael forgot to mention he was the first to bring us the fact Khabib has the most 10-8 rounds in combat sports.
Fucking capppppppppppppp anytime someone gets dropped in boxing it's usually a 10-8 bet nelo Floyd got hella more and many more hell might be sum ufc fighters aswell knowing chael
why are you so wrong? chael sonnen clearly has the most 10-8 rounds in all of combat sports
@@theviagradealer8992 lol floyd is another guy who beat Conor too
@@aremedyfrosty when Conor goes boxing and loses you say “but if there was grappling he’d win!”. But in mma when he loses you say “if it was striking only he’d win!” Delusion mcfraud fans.
He said that early tho
Khabib beat Justin without using the fence, and all of his fights prior to the ufc were either open mat or in a boxing ring… and he still dominated people with his wrestling and grappling. It’s a great narrative to pretend he needed the fence but it’s just not true. He used the fence because it made for easier takedowns, but that’s very different than needing the fence. And his coach said immediately after he fought Al that Khabib purposefully stopped pushing hard for takedowns in the mid to later rounds because he wanted to showcase his striking… which he did, as he pieces up Al with his jab. Khabib was a chain wrestler, so his takedowns often come from the second or third attempt, which will happen open late if they are in that position, but often happen against the fence because space is limited. And he’s not a kick-boxer, but he always threw leg kicks and kicks to the torso to mix in with his striking.
He pieced Barboza and Justin with some of those kicks, but people are blind.
Cheal is a POS. If he studied Khabib's style soooo extensively, then why didn't he use it to better his own?... I know why,, cause Chale🗑. I'm so happy he gone finally.
@@thedreadedkraken3944 after poirier lost to Khabib, you’ll notice he copied that style that beat him, and now he’s nigh unbeatable.
Gaethje has no jiu jitsu lmao
@@Zton-yn4kc Exactly! Those who can't copy/assimilate get pummeled/mauled lolz
Conor meant to say he tapped to just a good fighter not a Great one. By the way, the only time I've seen Conor shoot in for a single was when he got his bell rung and became a panicked wrestler.
"oh, you're a wrestler now" 🤣
He was tired. Dude had the fat body
He tapped to loser bums too. Sitenkov, Joe Duffy 😂 fkin Even Nate Diaz is kind of a bum
@@mikalbippin5410 usman tapped to a bum, shit happens
@@Cts_99 and is Undefeated eversince. Conor tapped to a bum, then tapped to another one in Duffy, then to another one in Diaz
Are we all pretending Conor didn’t call himself the goat last year (tied with Anderson Silva) and explicitly stating he’s better than GSP and Jon Jones 🤥🤥🤥
Eh a lot of fighters do that, you've got to believe you're better than everyone else while you're still competing, if you wanna get anywhere
@@prestonrutherford873 a lot of fighters say they are the GOAT? 99% of them don’t say that.. Conor is delusional. He thinks he won the “war” but got choked out and tapped

@@jjboss7896 A lot of fighters, whilst they're competing, believe they are the best, yes - Because they have to. Saying it aloud can help many try their 'darnedest to turn that into a reality, or at least help motivate them.
Just because they don't use the 'GOAT' acronym, doesn't mean that idea isn't something they express openly. Not a crazy concept 🤷♂️
Conor is the perfect example of someone living rent free in your head. The man must think about Khabib daily. he is desperate to discredit him, it actually discredits itself!
Ya khabib is in conors head and Conor is in Ali’s lol
Reply if you're gay
@@coenh8735 nobody gives a fuck what you think. Just butt hurt McGregor fans trying to defend there boy. It's straight cringe. No matter what you clowns will be talking about popularity and money like that's what guys like Khabib fight for.
And that's the difference. People who do it for money and fame will never be the best. Fighting is about passion and conquest. People like Conor just wanted to make money and get famous. Wrong sport for that.
@@coenh8735 It's not a popularity contest. It's a fight. And your boy is obviously better at being popular than he is at fighting.
Most of Khabib's haters are like that lmao. There's an account specifically naming itself as an insult towards Khabib and his late-father. How pathetic are these haters. Imagine hating a stranger so much that you see no problem insulting his family members. Not only do you have him 24/7 in your obsessive head, you then deemed it an ultimate sign of disrespect to name yourself after that same person but the only thing it does is expose yourself as an obsessive-weirdo🤣
Conners still Salty about a bout that happened so long ago. He legit got outstriked in the fight.
Khabib shot for the legs 15 seconds in. Stop
@@Cts_99 so, you think McGregor outstruck Khabib? 🤦
@@Cts_99 thats what Conor did to Poirier first shot like a dusty Bitch, then trashing submission dnt count and jumped on guillotine and then went out on a stretcher
idk why people keep saying khabib need the fence for a takedown, he literally takedown justin gaethje WITHOUT the fence in round 2.
Came here go say this. Gaethje: Ok, great
khabib's first fight in a cage was in the UFC. The big commentary in his debut is how the cage would be a disadvantage for him! Go re-watch his debut.
I remember when people trying to hate on Khabib said, "he is only good because he has the cage there" not knowing his history. Then those same people will complain they wasn't in a cage so they shouldn't count 😂
I watched his first fight in the UFC and from that knew he was going to be champion. His first fight was against a legit fighter on the rise at that stage. He dominated him
The thing is there are no written sets of rules or criteria for the GOAT status. It’s like individual opinion each has their own points. If you need more title defences, more fights, more than one division then he’s not on your goat list. People that consider he’s one of the GOAT because of the dominant how he made top fighters like they forgot how to fight and from the look of all his fights he would’ve done the same thing to everyone if he continues to fight or moves up to 170 except maybe Usman. Poirier also a big lightweight controlled him no problem. But that’s just my opinion
Plenty of welterweights would give him problems. He's never faced a wrestler his own size. Colby beats him.
Tysons method is numbers… he refers on one of his podcasts that Mayweather is the goat of boxing because he was 50-0, he repeatedly says it over and over because even to him it’s mind boggling that Floyd never lost a fight in his professional career
Now I’m not really the smartest of men but going off Mikes formula I guess that puts Khabib up there 🤷♂️
If ya disagree with that formula please don’t shoot the messenger, go and take it up with Mike, in person 😏👍🏻
Grapling is the key.May be best grappler Khamzat can bleed Khabib thé first time.but Leon is breakfast,Burns Lunch, cocolby dinner för Khabib,when Dustin moves 170 up next year,we can compare colby,Leon, Burns with Khabib
@@truecrimejungle I'd say he'll take Colby and Burns, it won't be easy but they're not a big WW, it's 60/40 for me. Leon would be the easiest without high level grappling. Khamzat would be the hardest considering high level grappling and the guy's huge. Remember when Gaethje said no one below 170 is beating Khabib and he just had training camp with Usman. I'm not saying he beats Usman but i believe even against Usman it's 50/50. Khabib ain't gonna have a knockdown on Usman but could definitely sub him and that's exactly how Usman had his first L.
@@truecrimejungle khamzat got more chance than usman. Others I don’t think so. We’ll never got the chance to see that but we might get to see khamzat take on top wrestlers in 170. If khamzat can do it, i think khabib can do it too. Can’t wait to see that guy fight
I love how this entire debate is ravaging the MMA world whilst Khabib is chilling watching Formula 1 in Saudi😂
The secret to beat Khabib is known to everybody, but has been executed by none. If the best fighters in the world know your strategy and how to stop it, but everyone failed to stop you, you must be the GOAT.
It's just a shame he retired so early, if he had continued it most probably would have retired unquestionably the GOAT but as of now he isn't even in the conversation.
@@mattj1829 hes the best fighter of all time but not the greatest key word best not greatest

@@majesticgroundwork3162 Anyone who uses the term casual is immediately disqualified from any reasonable discussion or 15 years old.
Khabib is not the best fighter of all time as Jon Jones or prime Fedor, DC etc would literally demolish him.
He's also not the greatest fighter if all time because he didn't do it long enough, some champs have more title defenses than Khabib had UFC fights. Get out of here and go play with your toys
I thought Chael would quote the following quote from Bruce Lee to prove his point. I fear not the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks once, but I fear the man who has practiced one kick 10,000 times.
That would describe Superfoot Bill Wallace. Undefeated, multi disciplined in martial arts but fought with only one kicking style every time. Never lost.
If I recall correctly. I think he used it before
Chael doesn't like Bruce Lee
He did not because less is more.
Conor's living in denial. He also refused to give Dustin his due for both times even though he clearly got his ass kicked. And the criticism about Khabib not throwing kicks is irrelevant. The goal of a fight is to win, and he did that, in dominant fashion. There's no reason for a fighter to arbitrarily change his style if his bread and butter works. Khabib's opponents weren't able to stop his offense even though they knew exactly what he wanted to do. Being "dynamic" isn't a prerequisite for being a great fighter.
True, that's just a stupid point to brought up to pad their argument. Just an arbitrary reason to downplay someone's achievement. If your goal is to use every limb at your arsenal atleast once, then you're NOT fighting, you're training. If a fighter could win a fight with only a headbutt, either he's a great fighter or his opponents sucked. So either Khabib is a GREAT fighter or Conor sucked ass.
The ufc is the showboat’s dream
Khabib dominated everyone he faced (literally) , yet never came out with even a black eye. McGregor just being petty especially since he has like what? one win out of his last five?
He faced 24 tomato cans and 5 good fighters, imagine if Khabib went up and beat Usman the level of respect he would get? That would be very similar to what Conor did when he beat Aldo. People are quick to forget.
@@hacker7017 I see your point about McGregor, but Khabib literally dog walked him.
Tibau stuffed all 13 of Khabibs takedowns, took him down, and outstruck him. Soo....
@@aladdin3241 Khabib is a good fighter who deserves respect, but his legacy is nowhere near GOAT, one of the many reasons is he didn't give Conor or ANYONE a rematch to solidify he is better, Conor sparked Dustin in 1st round and then Dustin won twice in a row, also the fight wasn't easy for Khabib against Conor, who knows what the rematch would be ? Nobody knows because someone retired very soon

Couple of points: ( been watching channel most videos for 3 years)
1. I'd like you to bring back some of the more interesting "on location" videos; in the arena, in car, coffee shop etc back to the show,
2. Faster coverage of events after they happen, especially after big news ( specifically after big ufc shows)
3. More interviews with UFC stars!!

"Al Iaquinta was the toughest fight Khabib had"..... and it was still 50-43... thats how good he was 😎
Man thet porier fight with kabib was a good one for sure
If kabib says al was his hardest fight then he it was. But damn he looked in trouble with porier
Honestly the Al fight was a last minute sparring match where Khabib wanted to go 5 rounds to experience it.
Kabab fought one guy ranked in the top 10 when they fought his entire career! That’s why he’s known as the padded goat
@@joeylansing6199 I'm a fan of Khabib but Dustin is the only fighter I've seen make Khabib put his skates on from one side of the octogan all the way to the other.
Thanks, I went and rewatched Khabib vs Conor. If Khabib is only good, then Conor is real bad.
Khabib wanted to stand with Al he said that and not that that was his hardest fight broo come on
Khabib's submission game is on point too. Khabib was really hard to trap, or impossible as he's never been trapped and submitted. He literally gets on top of you, never worries about your BJJ, and beats you senseless or submits you as he's done later in his career. His cardio and pressure, no one weaponized pressure more than Khabib. His finish rate increased with time, unlike Conor. He obliterated Rafael DS, Dustin, Barboza, Conor, Justin and AI without breaking a sweat. He is so good, you can never bet against him. If I had my life on the line and Khabib was put against Usman or GSP I would bet on Khabib. The man is so smart, so contained, so collected, so calm, so disciplined, I do not know what better material you can have in order to get a greater MMA fighter.
Usman would maul khabib same with gsp
@@jasonanderson1730Usman would get destroyed by Khabib. GSP would beat Khabib though.
I've heard nothing but facts. Maybe khabib was not the best ever but definitely in the top 5. Mcgregor doesn't understand that he just said that he got smashed and tapped to a "not great" fighter. Khabib is clearly living rent free in his head.
Like Itachi said "You don't become the GOAT to be acknowledged by everyone. The one who is acknowledged by everyone becomes the GOAT." Even Khabib never said that he's the greatest.he's one of the greatest

It's like what Bruce Lee stated. "Don't fear the man that practiced 1000 kicks but fear the man that practiced one kick 1000 times." Or something like that.
Lol wrong again Unc... There are pleny videos of Khabib's takedowns. In no way did he HAVE to get you against the fence - just simply not true. Many many of his takedowns were not against the fence.... But I agree with your major point in that you can be dominant in one aspect - especially if it's grappling/wrestling
Yeah to me it seems like getting someone against the fence was just a bonus for when they’ve been taken down by restricting their movement. But who am I to question lord chael
I believe theres a difference between best and greatest. In my opinion Khabib cant be considered the greatest due to length of reign. However i do believe he’s the best we have seen due to the sheer dominance he displayed. Never lost never dropped probably only ever lost 1 round which was against gaethje and gaethje was saved by the bell in that round. The man never even bled and this was all during a time and weight class that was probably the deepest any weight class has ever been.
Never lost on paper.....but everyone knows he lost against Tibau.
Not against gaethje, he lost a round against conor
@@danurban9591 he was juiced to the gills
" probably the deepest any weight class has ever been"
in strikers, sure... That's my only real issue with the Khabib question. He's a damn good ground fighter, no one can argue against that. The real question is, do you have to be the best at it, in order to beat people with very little skill in that department ? I don't think it's much of a coincidence he and Islam both, targeted that division. While, at least in Khabib's case, killing himself to be there. Would he have faired as well, in a more grappling heavy division like 170? Especially now with guys like Khamzat in the picture? Not to mention Colby, Burns and ofc Usman...

How come nobody sees or acknowledges the work that goes into the greats. Take for instance Khabib. People think it's so easy. And yet his performances ( on the few occasions he had them, on the handful ) cannot even compare or hold a candle to the output, i.e. the time, the training and the preparation it took for him to prepare for as good as he performed... it's real easy to dismiss that as your so easily willing to dismiss someone you think isn't great. Never seeing the work behind it.
In fact if you were to take both Conor and Khabib's level of training on the whole, the entire output. And I'm talking about everything from the point that they began this road as a calling.
With confidence, I can say that Conor's ( and I would even say many others ) would fall incredibly short.
Conor is confusing dazzling futility with greatness
Absolutely, and it applies to all disciplines. Liver punch right leg kick with different beginnings and or different endings works very well when mastered
This is one of my favorite videos you've done in a while. That "don't get hit" dance was beautiful lol. 😆 As usual your points are great as well.
I would have liked to see Khabib at WW. Because we would see him in the clinch mixing up, strike defense. I still he would have been very good, but we will never know. I Imagine like Kamuru b4 he learned to box,but Khabib is a Hard worker. He is not a weight bully but like other greats he always wanted every advantage to be at his peak ( Like Floyd and Jon) He never liked short notice fights.
Khabib, will tell you that Iaquinta was a very careful fight for him even too careful. Prior to fight with Justin he said "they use it know as my weak point, but it wasn't". He tried to get that belt and don't get caught. He literally used Iaquinta as training session for his jab that he landed in a minute like 20 times. His coach basically begged him to take him down. Cause he knew he could and he knew he wanted to play more.
Can we just say his style was great for the art overall, because no one could stop him doing what he wants to do in there or defeat him.... Khabib is probably the greatest because he did what he wanted to do, no flaws on the record in the ufc is a feat in itself, although prime Tony would've been that weird test his style needed to see......and when you lose the man you love that brought you to where you are with the timings of all what occurred, you do exactly what Khabib did, and in turn now his father's legacy is as strong as his...... No flaws.... Simplified...
Prime Tony wouldn't have done much to Khabib. He almost got beaten by Pettis. Khabib's pressure and strenght is too much for Tony and Tony is also very sloppy. It would have been interesting, but very one sided.
I have that "Call a Name " song on a CD now. I listen to that every morning before work. Thank you Chael!
Khabib should've tweeted - he doesn't wrestle. He doesn't wrestle at all.
"oh so you're a wrestler Now!" - Nate Diaz
Lets be realistic, conor has flashbacks from the mauling khabib gave him
It was more painful then snapping his leg 🦵
😂😂😂😂
Eh, 50% chance he was blackout drunk for that one
Has theres ever been a fight so hyped that was so one-sided? Nope.
lol yall act like ground and pound scaring anybody. he's taken more damage is stand up fights
Chael didnt address Khabib never moving up in weight and challenging himself, despite the fact that he missed weight multiple times. And also pulled out from couple fights, which reflects largely as he on had 29.
Yup I wrestled a long time and when I started getting good was when I focused on having a couple really good moves to combo together vs working on a bunch of super technical stuff.
“I fear not the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks once, but I fear the man who has practiced one kick 10,000 times.” - Lee
I can't understand how a knockout is meant to be better that submitting. Anyone can get a lucky punch, happens all the time. No-one gets a lucky sub, you have to be technically better.
Khabib was great, never lost a round, dominanted everyone he went against, won all his fights. He doesn't have to go up weight classes, why should he? 155 Goat for sure. He mauled Conored, played with him so by Conor's logic he must be dog shit then if that was only good.
Conor fought most of his career at 145, then went up 2 weight classes. Who does that?! He walked around at that time at 170, when other guys in the 170 walk around at 200+. Khabib never took a ride to move up
this was something that i struggled with through my brown belt in BJJ. i knew too much and I had to work on simplifying and going back to the basics.
Khabib is the greatest LW ever, if you think otherwise I'm sorry but you're just wrong
U failed to mention Connor did not defend a title once.
great advice for any life. "Less is More!" Thank you Uncle Chael!
Awsome as always. Right on point
I get the less is more argument, and I know Jon is a POS, but he's arguably the greatest fighter we've seen and he beats people in all kinds of different ways. Hell, ask his wife.
😂🤣
Not only did Conor get beat by Kahbib, he got beat twice in a row by a guy Kahbib beat. Lolz.
i think your missing point of the video....but thats ok...enjoy your evening
"Less is more" is the smartest thing that I had ever heard from Chael.
I could not agree more. That statement stays true to other areas in our life & not just in combat sport.
Where do you figure the more dominant strikers (stylebender, Anderson etc.) fit into the equation when discussing less is more?
KHABIB 🦅 🦅 🦅 MMA KING FOR EVER I DON'T THINK SOME ONE COME LIKE HIM IN SPORT FOR YEARS
Yeah too bad he’s a quitter
@@AzureSky_Music quitter? No. Winner. Most dominant. Accomplished. You’re delusional. Always someone trying to cut down greats. Always the guy.
Chael is quite possibly THE BEST instigator i have ever seen, he is stirring the pot behind the scenes and i love it
The music playing during that ad plug was epic
As much as I would like to talk shit about Conor. He had a good run at 145 albeit many of his wins were against fighters who had not reaxhed or were past their prime. Since he has been at 155 he had mixed results. Wrestlers were to powerful for him and his power was lacking.
I agree whole heartedly. I wouldn’t even call his time at 155 mixed results. He is 1-3 in LW lol.
Yup he shined in 145... outside it he´s struggling bad
He Didn't have mixed results. He is a failure at 155. The only reason he won the belt because eddie can't take shittalks.
Wrestlers n strikers both are too much for conor lmao in lw
@@radialomer5705 wtf? Did you see his fight against Eddie
He dominated him him effortlessly
Didn’t Khabib take Justin down away from the fence in round 2?
Chael, this was brilliant 👏 👏
Well as the ancient Greek philosophers used to say: Quality cannot be derived from quantity. It's true that after spending many years studying one principle, everyone comes to the same philosophical truths.
One of the 🐐s and arguably the best LW of all time. Wish we could have got to see more. 🦅
Definitely the greatest LW of all time. No one else compares. Not Penn, Henderson, etc.
Prime penn beats khabib
@@anon2427 😂
@@anon2427 lmao.
I think the way Khabib confirms he is the GOAT is if comes back and beats Usman, but I doubt we’ll ever see that
It would add to it but putting a stamp to greatness is really showing that you beat everyone in your weight class and protected your throne many times. DJ, Jon Jones, Aldo , GSP
Khabib doesn't care about you thinking he is the GOAT. If you listen to his opinion on it he doesn't think anyone is the GOAT. He thinks there are many he is just one of them. He says it's impossible for it to be one person. This is what people don't get about Khabib. He done what he set out and wanted to do, he doesn't give a fuck what you think now, just like he didn't care when you hated on him through his career.
@@lukemurray4950 Bruh you’re cursing at someone for giving their opinion lmfao, I don’t think Khabib if you’re in here choking on his bawls
@@lukemurray4950 why are you upset lol he just stated his opinion and the discussions of what he thinks would put Khabib as his goat
@@lukemurray4950 great point
I came to a similar conclusion about khabib. This video just re assured what I already thought. He is still a beast. People can always study your tactics.
Fight was good ..but that hype those heartbeats during match and that crazy aftermath ..
And the hatred between those two
Press conference
Man can we see that type of rivalry again...
Conor’s saltiness blinds his basic fight biz acumen. That was a foolish statement from him. Here is a basic rule of thumb: always bring up those who beat your ass, and those you beat. Either you got beat by a beast, or beat a beast. Its both ethically and strategically sound. It strengthens your resume.
I’m a Conor fan, but I cannot support him on this one…..
We need another 20 years before GOAT talk IMO the sport is still young and something tells these new gen fighters coming in the next 10+ years are gonna be making crazy history,you gonna have some of the kids of the older fighters fighting and that new gen of kids being train in full MMA gonna be interesting
My dad coached my high school wrestling team and taught them as freshmen the head and arm throw from the opposite side everyone taught and a stand up: best freshmen team.
Then as kids progressed through the years, they mastered a few basic leg attacks, rides and escapes and were the best high school team in the area.
Less is more.
Khabib had the only knockdown in their fight. And they say connor is a great striker lol
If you think he's not a great striker then you're casual
i don’t fear the man who has practiced 10000 kicks once, but i fear the man who practiced one kick 10000 times
Yup! I agree with you! You make some really good points!
Sometimes I can’t stand Chael, sometimes I love him!
Love this video!!!
Khabib had a decent teep and would often pressure with flying knees to get people to the fence. He also had decent hands by the end of his career. Not incredibly dynamic, but he still was more dynamic than some think.
The flying kness i definitely remember, yes, quite explosive.
His submission game is on point too. Khabib was really hard to trap, or impossible as he's never been trapped and submitted. He literally gets on top of you, never worries about you BJJ, and beats you senseless or submits you as he's done later in his career. His cardio and pressure, no one weaponized pressure more than Khabib.
I don’t think khabib showed all his weapons before retiring. I think it’s likely he’s better than what we’ve seen from him
I'm more impressed by someone that does it on the feet. Because there's so many ways you can get finished in a second. Not that is actually harder or better just my imo
First video watching chael opened my eyes to this sport
Deep down, Conor downfall started when he put his hand in the Lion’s den. He should not have gone too far with Khabib! His trash talk backbited him for his rest of the life.
I genuinely laughed out loud when chael said al iaquinta a fight where khabib got 6 takedowns outta 15 attempts, I really thought he was gonna say gleison tibau the fight where khabib got none outta 13 and tibau actually took him down
First thing I thought of was Dan Henderson!
Everyone knew the right hand was coming.
They all trained to not get hit by it.
He still knocked'em all out with it.
Chael, what if, like with Rogans idea - half way through Khabib's career, they got rid of the cage and it was an 'open field' type of situation for a fight. I think Rogan said as big as a football field (and stadium seating already there, so yeah I get that), no cage wall and no artificial leverage? Think we would see a delineation in skill or a progression of adaptation? - from an SBG student.
Gsp p4p most well rounded fighter, jon jones p4p most naturally talented fighter, and khabib p4p most dominant fighter...these are facts!
