@James Young yes James excellent I too think his only way to win is by going "head first".... into a headbutt that could cut khabib and get medical stoppage.. only way justin wins
Pretty sure the reason Khabib goes for low singles with his head out the outside when in the open is to avoid anything coming up the middle: uppercut, knees etc. Conor almost landed a knee when Khabib shot, but Khabib shot so low that it just missed.
@@jackhughman9450 boring? Please don’t share another wrong opinion. I’m not even the biggest Khabib fan but you cannot tell me him vs Conor, Dustin, and even Barboza was a boring fight
It's funny how the inevitability of getting taken down when backed up against the fence has overshadowed Khabibs prowess of taking people down in the open. It's just that, against the fence, the takedown is inevitable, but doesn't necessarily mean in the open one wouldn't get taken down. The man became a two-times World Sambo combat Champion without needing the fence to get the takedowns. But it's so damn right that the first priority is not to get backed up against the fence, while it's totally wrong to assume none will get taken down in the middle of the ring. One of the reasons for Khabib pushing opponents to the fence is that after getting the takedown, the fence restricts movement by a huge margin which prevents the opponents from scrambling out which eventually renders them helpless. If Justin Keeps things in the middle it's going to be really interesting. Can't wait for this fight.
Lol true. But after watching the fight we saw that 1: khabib out- striker Gaethji 2: Justin’s ‘wrestling’ was all cap 3: only truth if Gaethji was his leg kicks
Chael, Love the commentary and transparency and absolute dissection of this fight. 2 questions. 1- everyone is always talking about the defensive wrestling of Justin and how great it is. My question to you is, what about Khabib a defensive striking? 2- Do you see Khabib pulling guard against Justin in the open if he can’t back him up against the cage? Thanks!
CHAEL you forgot the spider Silva who was great at defending takedowns, until the day came he succumbed to your AAA legendary wrestling skills and tapped to a perfectly executed RNC.
This applies to anything. "Wrestling is like any other tool. If you are not keeping it sharp it goes dull and then it goes away. If you keep that in the drawer long enough thinking you're going to bring it out just for that moment, it's not the way that it works."
When Sonnen talks about wrestling you should listen. He along with Randy Couture are among the most knowledeable about the wrestling community throughout the years. They know information about the past and present wrestlers that very few in the MMA community know. Chael was also an Olympic alternate in Greco Roman wrestling even though his blast doubles were his best tool in MMA IMO.
I agree with Chael!!! Justin uses his wrestling a lot its just he doesn't go for top control like most wrestlers do. Tony is similar to Justin in that way. They both use their wrestling in their striking like grabbing under hooks, pushing people against the cage, snap downs and giving their legs to their opponents knowing they won't get taken down.
Not commonly known about Uncle Chael, because of his other athletic achievements like his undefeated mma record, but he also was a professional baseball player who had the chance to set the home record, but wanted to do other things
I hope so, justin style has change alot through out his career, i still can't believe that he was a non-striker who only used wrestling back to his amatuer time but now he is a great striker who doesn't like wrestling, that's crazy
This is the only time im going for Khabib, last couple of his fights i was like nah this is the one that he loses but no the guy is indestructable can't bet against Khabib.
I don’t doubt Khabib’s abilities, but this fight is interesting to me just for the sheer fight intelligence Whitman brings to the table and the coachability of Gaethje. I’m still betting Khabib takes it, but I would love to see Justin make it difficult for him.
I like the idea of gaethje being on the offensive with the wrestling against khabib, but khabib definetely has the edge on the ground fight (bjj). Gaethje already said that his game plan is to chop khabib leg so khabib cant shoot
Justin was put on his back. Justin didn't show if he knew how to defend on his back. Justin in round 2 was taken down and he gave back. He needs to work on bjj. His division one wrestling didn't help him.
That's a bias in favor of Khabib for sure especially after Khabib did not made weight and the covered up. I guess they will find something on his drug tests if he wins... Totally corrupt system
@@lucianoDoni1 The Emirates isn't las Vegas were drunken louts get all hysterical when their favourite fighter looses. Justin will receive the same respect as a champion
Chael is talking about the offensive wrestling. There have been plenty of footage of Justin training defensive wrestling for this camp....aka multiple people try to hold him against the wall, etc... I would be surprised if Justin blasts a double on Khabib and pulls a Khabib on Khabib....
@@kinginblack3321 Yeah...thats what Chael was walking about- if Justin tries....I'm pretty sure he'll get slept before the 2nd. Justin needs to scramble and make this a dirty fight very quick from the start. If he can cut Khabib's eye enough...fight may be stopped by Doctor... Pretty sure Khabib will be 29-0 tho...
Hidden might not mean kept on a shelf. Some guys talk about weapons Khabib only uses in camp at AKA that never make it in the octagon too. We may actually see some explosive takedowns in the center and some ugly scrambles before the nights over. If Justin can make the juice not worth the squeeze against the cage for a couple rounds and chop that leg down, this might turn into a dog fight front and center.
Khabib is so vulnerable when he goes backwards it's unbelievable everyone is so scared to chase him they do nothing if you want to hit khabib you better haul some ass because he gets out of the way of punches only way is to get there before he gets out.
What I fear the most with these kind of fight is that it doesn't live up to the hype. We can all speculate on what would happen but if the fighters don't deliver...
I already mentioned WHY Khabib wrestles the way he does and that is because to wrestle like GSP you have to stand in the pocket to be able level change for an easy TD.Khabib tends to run at you and overhwhelm you with his size and momentum. "what do do?"imo only one choice,keep an arm out as a "control" arm that is ready to control the head of Khabib.
I was just talking about this the other day, everyone that fights khabib goes backwards, khabib is willing to take a shit to drive you backwards or into the fence. Harder said then done but unless Gaethje fights forward at all cost the match is over. You can not fight khabib doing anything other then going forward.
Whoever wins this fight. Surely Izzy has to give the next shot to Weidman...... the world wants and needs this fight next. It’s just one of those things that won’t go away
Thats the second time uncle chael said justin took 5th. Justin took 7th as a junior. Then came back as a senior at 17-8 and went 1-2 at nationals. In other words he did not place his senior year
🤔 hmmm good point That makes a lot of sense why you say Khabib goes for first second third baseAnd George just explodes but they ultimately end up doing the same thing I can’t wait for the fight
I'm Canadian, I love GSP, but once he became champ (the 2nd time), his fights got more and more boring. I love a fighter like Gaethje who will earn the win with a TKO rather than winning the strike/takedown battle.
Everyone please look up on RUclips right now- Justin vs Cobb ... Justin got full mounted by this man for a whole round and couldn’t get the man off and was ground and pounding him the whole time. Think I’m lieing look it up right now^^^ now stop saying Justin has never been taken control of on the ground. Bc he has, and I’m sorry by bums to compared to what he is facing tomorrow night... Let’s go Justin tho! USA! USA! USA!
There is a chance we could be heading for another Usman vs Covington... which I’m really hoping for, but if Gaethje’s wrestling is competitive then it’s going to look just like the Ferguson fight. Or it’s business as usual for khabib.

😂😂😂😂

His mooooyeee tye is outstanding 😅
Better still than Max kellerman's "beep"
if Uncle Chael says Kebeep. Its Kebeep. Capeesh?

Pretty sure the reason Khabib goes for low singles with his head out the outside when in the open is to avoid anything coming up the middle: uppercut, knees etc. Conor almost landed a knee when Khabib shot, but Khabib shot so low that it just missed.
The low single means he can use it as a dummy too and throw the overhand
Ok great but where does the Ridge Wallet fit in all this?
In your front pocket...

Imagine Justin goes out there, takes Khabib down and tkos him with ground and pound lol.
Interested to see how this ages
imagine khabib knockout
justin out cold lmfao
Imagine Khabib KOs Gaethje with a spinning back kick
Imagine you had 3 more inches on your bean pole
I think there's a great probability of that happening.
Ive watched so many videos of mma analyst explaining what Gaethje need to do not lose, but they never mention what he needs to do in order to win!
I love when Chael only offers me something
Okay, great.
Well where are the people who said Justin could wrestle with Khabib. The champ put him to sleep ! Khabib wrestling is on another level.
When we talk about wrestling. I just can't help but remember when The Undertaker threw Man Kind Off the cage onto the broadcasting table. 😂😂😂
Chael is the uncle we all need
Imagine this, first round gonna be a fast pace with take downs and at the scramble to get up justin throws a wicked uppercut and lights out.
Naaah

"...in the middle of the cage*". There are no rings there. Everything else was spot on bro. Very well explained. Cheers. #KhabibTimeBaby.
Looking back after the fight. Looks like we still have not seen Justin's wrestling
Yeah, some people still believe your wrestling credentials mean elite mma grappling.
We saw it. It just doesn't translate well to MMA. Justin needs to spend some time with John Danaher.
Anyone else buzzing it's on early for a change in the UK?
Perks of the fight being in middle east. For once I don't have to wait till 4/5 in the morning

2 questions.

2- Do you see Khabib pulling guard against Justin in the open if he can’t back him up against the cage?

Uncle Chael - ok great
This is the only time im going for Khabib, last couple of his fights i was like nah this is the one that he loses but no the guy is indestructable can't bet against Khabib.
Same... i don't doubt him anymore, khabibs going to maul him just like Poirier
I don’t doubt Khabib’s abilities, but this fight is interesting to me just for the sheer fight intelligence Whitman brings to the table and the coachability of Gaethje. I’m still betting Khabib takes it, but I would love to see Justin make it difficult for him.
This fight will be harder for khabib than Conor or DP.
Khabib will have to outpunch Justin and negate his wild ass punching style. I root for Justin but I’m sure Khabib will retain
Everyone forgets tony cut weight twice or justin probably isn't here
