I genuinely don’t understand people who say his fights are boring, he had one of the most entertaining styles of all time, just relentless pressure and what he did differently than other wrestlers is that he was constantly active on the ground.
Ive taken a deep dive into watching khabib and my goodness. Ive never seen anyone utilize wrestling the way he does to render his opponents unable to do anything like that. Amazing athlete, amazing man, amazing grit. My mentality has improved since trying to think like him.
How are you thinking like him? Not being a smartass but does he have a documentary saying what his mantra is? You’re a wrestler and learning his moves? Again genuine curiosity
With all the other wrestlers in the UFC, I never understood why casuals would call Khabib boring. He is the least boring wrestler I’ve ever seen. When he’s on the ground, he’s not laying on his opponents to hold control time and stall the standup, he’s trying everything he can to kill them, constantly. He shoots takedowns relentlessly until he lands one, smashes their guard with pressure, then throws HEAVY shots as soon as he reaches a position where he can generate the force he is looking for. He is never still and he is constantly pressuring his opponents to try to break their will. His submission attempts are incredibly well timed and intelligent, and his ground and pound is SAVAGE. It’s rare to see fighters pivot so hard into punches in a dominant position on the ground without ever losing position or throwing themselves off balance. He’s not in the GOAT conversation, but he was a MONSTER. Wish we got to see more of him, because I’m sure he would be in that conversation now.
Fully agree. The only silver lining to Khabib leaving in his prime as that it opened the way for Islam - they'd never have competed against one another I'm sure. We'll never know what Khabib could have done had he not retired and I don't think it's reasonable to call him the GOAT as a result, but he was undeniably the king of the lightweight division in this era and an incredibly entertaining wrestler.

@@MrEminemUsman, Colby are good wrestlers and Maia and Burns have already proved that they are they real BJJ black belt not like dustin, RDA and Conor.
Khabib's striking wasn't that great but its better than a lot of people believe, the guy moves around so quick and his footwork here was definitely better than most fighters of this time, which is why his takedowns worked so well because he wasn't a stocky wrestler, he was pretty agile, his defense was also high level, look at the head movement in this fight and how many right hands he blocked/parried with his arm/shoulder
I think Khabib's striking actually is quite effective and brilliant. He literally outstruck Gaethje, knocked down Conor and showed a good striking defense against Dustin.
man how about Al, man he is a beast definitely says a lot about the guy against khabib and to stop his take downs so well. So much respect i think i found a new favorite fighter for the time
Classic in an MMA sense. This was only 5 years ago. MMA is much younger than other sports so we have way less to go off. Plus, most of the old fights from the Dark Days when MMA was illegal aren’t exactly “classics”. Lmao
@@johnnycheckpoint8431This isn't a classic fight if it was 20 years old. Snoozefest like pretty much every Khabib fight. He was a great champ but his fights have basically zero replay value
@@ryanb8736hahaha…. Dude, I think these people have seen more blood than some “other” countries.. but that’s just my opinion, harmless keyboard warrior over here.😂
We are witnessing in the sport of blood, We have never ever seen this Eagle with Bloody face. He was a next-level fighter in MMA history. No one can beat him in his era. Hatts off to the Eagle Khabib Nurmagomedov.
You know the one thing about this fight that always amazed me was the speed of Khabib's shots. That low single takedown was lighting fast and when he latched onto Al, there was no escape. Khabib was a different level
There will never be another Khabib. You can literally see in Alquintas eyes in the first round he already knew he couldn't win the fight. Khabib to me is the greatest. Being in the most dangerous sport in the world and just maul everyone with ease, put your will on your opponent and retire undefeated without even bleeding, that's GOAT status
Maybe because he got the call for a fight, like, 5 minutes before the card happened? Don't get me wrong, I doubt Al would beat Khabib in any kind of scenario, but no one went into this fight expecting anything less than what we got.
He was sooo dominant and had a very effective style but you can’t put him as the GOAT. He won the title against Al and only defended the title 3 times.
He retired in his prime, so it's not a fair comparison with other fighters. Fedor would look like a god if he retired in his prime. Jon Jones would also be the same If he retired as soon as he beat Chael, but he's the GOAT for fighting multiple generations.
Khabib is such an amazing champion. You see him take 2 rounds undisputed, and then he fights round 3 in Al's territory to give him a chance. He has complete control of the fight and yet he has the respect and kindness to be fair to his opponent. That is just greatness. You'll always be the greatest most humble champion in the arena Khabib ! much love.
I watching this fight back now having a better understanding of MMA because I got into it in 2017, I see now just how spectacular this performance was by Khabib even more so than I already did
Ok', and did you know'' that IS maybe khabib's worst perf'' and that Iaquinta' didn't wants to fight him'. But Al' did better than most of fighters, even both got a lot of stress'''
Big regrets are that WE Nevers Saw Iaquinta' fightin'' prime, even hé deserves title short ...like Ferguson After 12wins' in raw... Maybe it IS ''DANA' PRIVILÈGE ''😊😊
Khabib the G.O.A.T imo What a Great, Flawless Career truly he fought for his Legacy his Father the Great Abdulmanap made him and his mind Strong the Best ever just Amazing..
Khabib knew he’ll never get another trash opponent again so he was messing around with al iaquinta in this fight. UFC were so desperate to make a lightweight champion for this PPV.
Very interesting fact of this fight: Khabib was watching loads of videos of Muhammad Ali boxing while training and cutting weight for this fight that he even admitted that he went too overboard with his striking because he was so motivated from the videos. You may also notice that mid fight his brother Abubaker Nurmagomedov started getting angry with him and told him to stop messing around (With the striking stuff). But Iaquinta would credit his striking as really weird that it was hard to counter but also give credit to Iaquinta for his wrestling defence in this fight.
Damm Al really couldn't believe that he won ,I give him this he went 5 completel rounds that's for sure I could be wrong but I don't 🤔 any one else did
I will says it was amazing to have experienced khabib and his reign of power. I will never forget wish you all the best all fans khabib respect and love ❤️
Бои от Хабиба прекрасны тем, что он как торпеда кидается на тебя всей мощью и удерживает тебя всем своим весом не давая тебе сделать НИЧЕГО, абсолютная доминация и уверенность.
Khabib stand up is excellent, technique wise and defensively it’s top notch. He understands angles very well and doesn’t get hit with big shots.The single leg/leg trip takedown is phenomenal. Once he gets opponent’s foot or feet off ground it’s a guarantee takedown cuz he so adept at leg trips. Also excellent against cage, gets the back and then overpowers opponents side plane by riding his weight like an anchor breaking base preventing them from building a foundation for a reversal of position. Took foot off gas a bit but still got the better of stand up in 3rd and 4th rounds. First time going 5 so not a bad strategy at all especially when u consider al was not really a threat despite what Rogan was saying. Showed a good jab in 3rd busting up al’s nose. Also super smart switching to southpaw in 3rd targeting lower leg with kicks from a different angle. A human tornado 🌪️
yeah it's not 'top notch' by any definition. Khabib had so much success boxing his opponents because A - he had excellent footwork and B - they had to posture wide with a low guard because he was so terrifying on the ground and so good at taking you down given the slightest opening. This fight is a great example - Al was boxing nearly bent over, trying to keep a decent mid guard to protect his face while also keeping his hips low and elbows down to defend takedowns. This made Khabib the more agile fighter by far, let him see all of Al's punches coming, and let him get away with keeping his hands low which made his very snappy flicking jab highly effective. What is now a textbook case of elite wrestling opening the door for aggression and success on the feet. Opponents had no choice but to posture to defend takedowns, credit to Khabib and his team to take advantage. Also shows why Khabib always said Islam was even better than he was - Khabib is the better wrestler I think but Islam is a much better striker, while still being an elite grappler.@@iDanksgiving
27:17 I’m very surprised at Joe Rogan’s bad commentary in this fight as long as he’s been doing this. Bad night for Joe. Khabib was in control of the whole fight and knew he could rely on his superior wrestling at any point in time he felt in trouble. As I said before khabib stand up isn’t the best but can get the job done however both men would destroy Joe Rogan in the octagon with Khabib’s opponent was no walk in the park. Khabib’s opponent was well prepared for this fight. Good controlled fight and experience for Khabib.
Please say Khabib again cause i think we aint heard it enough. And his opponent has a name its Al Iaquinta and this dude is a legend hes almost at the end of his career while competing at this fight. Also you dont know Joe Rogan and how good he in the octagon is but you're not even 18 so i guess you think thats kinda "cool" to say stuff like that.
@@TVAnthologyReviews his strikes are practical not pretty nor boxing. they are sambo techniques great for hitting someone and then going for the take down with one fluid motion.
i mean it definitely gets the job done but it’s not necessarily “impressive” for a ufc fighter. the threat of his takedown and wrestling is so strong that it allows him to perform well on the feet because his opponent is always scared of Khabib shooting. Obviously that’s all apart of the game but my point is that if there was no threat of getting taken down 90% of ufc fighters are gonna smoke him in the stand up.
@@ovichggatall the if’s, in the real measurement of who is stronger man than other man there are no if’s, want real if? if knees and leg stomping would be allowed on the ground, he would’ve won easier and faster, but they want their fighters to live
Khabib was always steps ahead. The way he could sense when you were taking a break and just start pummeling you , to the second you were about to make a move and just shift his weight and position and keep you down. There’s been so many interviews with people who grappled with Khabib from training partners to former opponents who would detail how Khabib had amazing hip movement and positioning control with his lower body as much as his upper body.
Stop lying. Al laquinta easily defended khabibs take down which force the stand up in the later rounds. Khabib should have ripped Al apart but struggled to hold him down cuz he didnt have his steroid strength in this bout.khabib is a cheater
@@kiro253 Yeah you made that up all in your head little buddy because you dont understand this sport.i woulnd mindshowing you but you khabib fans are delusional.
If you want to know how good Khabib was, realize that this was one of the most dominant title fights in history, likely 50-43, and people like Rogan seems to think that Khabib’s aura of invincibility was cracking after this fight. He was dominant, completely apart from any fighter ever.
@@scottmc1855 I agree he cut his career a little short it would have been nice to see him have a few more fights, but even from what we saw it was pretty clear he was one of the greats. That was one of the most dominant runs we've ever seen. He fought 5 guys in the top 5 -- RDA, barboza, conor, justin, dustin
@@eddiehauser6661 - How can a person who has barely beat any talent with a name be one of the greats? Most dominate runs we've ever seen? That's just crazy talk. Outside of Porier and Gaethje.... his fight card is garbage. McGregor? Come on. His first 16 fights were against people paid $100 to get beat up by him. His next 10 were against nobodies and mid card talent. I just don't understand this love affair with a guy who 95% of his fight card is absolute trash. It's an insult to the REAL GOAT's out there that took on everyone.
In my eyes he is the G.O.A.T alongside with Jon Bones Jones these two Starched their Divisions like no other and Kept their records Undefeated and Khabib never got a Scratch never been Beaten his Mindset was just too good too Crazy
Khabib fought cans except for like 4 fights, got gifted a belt by fighting the 11th ranked fighter, and did massive weight cuts so he could fight smaller guys. Only 3 title defenses. Don't even put that chumps name in the same sentence as Bones, unless that sentence is "Khabib couldn't hold a candle to Jon Jones' shadow."
Khabib clearly used this as an opportunity to go the distance and test out his striking. He didn't commit to most of his takedowns later in the fight. Dominant performance regardless...
He didn’t commit because they were unsuccessful… if he were to keep shooting unsuccessful take downs it puts him at risk lmao I’ve heard it all from you casuals

@@Frogchamp-ev4ct Conor should have received point deduction for cheating. Grabbing shorts, cage, hooking glove and knee to downed opponent and Gaethje was literally running for his life until he got submitted
At 12 minutes on the video when Khabib went for the leg and didn't take him down. He decided that he wanted to punch him in the face instead, but keep him afraid of the takedown. Never seen this fight before. Good fight
Every single thing he does is so efficient. Play this at .25 speed and you will see how Khabib uses basic physics concepts instinctively. When he's on top of them? That's his body weight, his strength and gravity that the person pinned down has to fight against. And when the fighter tries to get up, he wastes a lot of energy. And on top of that, khabib can just use all that energy the opponent is spending to also get up himself (riding the opponents back) Guy is a genius

@@Baryonyx01, it's not really his fault that out of the 29 fights he had not a single opontent was a "very good wrestler" (according to you, anyway)
@@MrEminem Actually it is, he was fighting at WW before joining UFC and then he started fighting at LW despite having terrible weight cuts. The man walks around at 200.
@@MrEminem khabib was fighting at WW before he signed with UFC and then when he came i ufc he fought at LW despite weight fails. his own nutritionist said that they weight cuts were horrible. WW were full of wrestlers and grappler and khabib liked his 0 a lot which is why he fought at LW.
@@MrEminemUsman, Colby are good wrestlers and Maia and Burns have already proved that they are they real BJJ black belt not like dustin, RDA and Conor.
Even though Al lost he showed the fighting spirit and pride of NYC in his home town
Al is from Long Island, not NYC
Khabib's striking wasn't that great but its better than a lot of people believe, the guy moves around so quick and his footwork here was definitely better than most fighters of this time, which is why his takedowns worked so well because he wasn't a stocky wrestler, he was pretty agile, his defense was also high level, look at the head movement in this fight and how many right hands he blocked/parried with his arm/shoulder
I think Khabib's striking actually is quite effective and brilliant. He literally outstruck Gaethje, knocked down Conor and showed a good striking defense against Dustin.

There will never be another Khabib. You can literally see in Alquintas eyes in the first round he already knew he couldn't win the fight. Khabib to me is the greatest. Being in the most dangerous sport in the world and just maul everyone with ease, put your will on your opponent and retire undefeated without even bleeding, that's GOAT status
islam next khabib
Maybe because he got the call for a fight, like, 5 minutes before the card happened? Don't get me wrong, I doubt Al would beat Khabib in any kind of scenario, but no one went into this fight expecting anything less than what we got.

He was sooo dominant and had a very effective style but you can’t put him as the GOAT. He won the title against Al and only defended the title 3 times.

Its a skin thing. Some guys just don't get cut or bruised.
his sambo, his stamina and his game plan >>>>>
He also fought only a handful of high-level fighters, and retired.
He retired in his prime, so it's not a fair comparison with other fighters. Fedor would look like a god if he retired in his prime. Jon Jones would also be the same If he retired as soon as he beat Chael, but he's the GOAT for fighting multiple generations.
Khabib is such an amazing champion. You see him take 2 rounds undisputed, and then he fights round 3 in Al's territory to give him a chance. He has complete control of the fight and yet he has the respect and kindness to be fair to his opponent. That is just greatness. You'll always be the greatest most humble champion in the arena Khabib ! much love.
I watching this fight back now having a better understanding of MMA because I got into it in 2017, I see now just how spectacular this performance was by Khabib even more so than I already did

Real hiro kahbib
Very interesting fact of this fight: Khabib was watching loads of videos of Muhammad Ali boxing while training and cutting weight for this fight that he even admitted that he went too overboard with his striking because he was so motivated from the videos. You may also notice that mid fight his brother Abubaker Nurmagomedov started getting angry with him and told him to stop messing around (With the striking stuff). But Iaquinta would credit his striking as really weird that it was hard to counter but also give credit to Iaquinta for his wrestling defence in this fight.

Khabib is the best fighter
Khabib stand up is excellent, technique wise and defensively it’s top notch. He understands angles very well and doesn’t get hit with big shots.The single leg/leg trip takedown is phenomenal. Once he gets opponent’s foot or feet off ground it’s a guarantee takedown cuz he so adept at leg trips. Also excellent against cage, gets the back and then overpowers opponents side plane by riding his weight like an anchor breaking base preventing them from building a foundation for a reversal of position. Took foot off gas a bit but still got the better of stand up in 3rd and 4th rounds. First time going 5 so not a bad strategy at all especially when u consider al was not really a threat despite what Rogan was saying. Showed a good jab in 3rd busting up al’s nose. Also super smart switching to southpaw in 3rd targeting lower leg with kicks from a different angle. A human tornado 🌪️
joe is literally calling him "amateurish" in the 4th and 5th round his striking is so bad lol he keeps his chin way too high...
23:18 lol
yeah it's not 'top notch' by any definition. Khabib had so much success boxing his opponents because A - he had excellent footwork and B - they had to posture wide with a low guard because he was so terrifying on the ground and so good at taking you down given the slightest opening. This fight is a great example - Al was boxing nearly bent over, trying to keep a decent mid guard to protect his face while also keeping his hips low and elbows down to defend takedowns. This made Khabib the more agile fighter by far, let him see all of Al's punches coming, and let him get away with keeping his hands low which made his very snappy flicking jab highly effective.
What is now a textbook case of elite wrestling opening the door for aggression and success on the feet. Opponents had no choice but to posture to defend takedowns, credit to Khabib and his team to take advantage. Also shows why Khabib always said Islam was even better than he was - Khabib is the better wrestler I think but Islam is a much better striker, while still being an elite grappler.@@iDanksgiving
@@iDanksgiving If he's so amaturish, why did he come away from a 5 round fight with nearly 0 damage?
27:17 I’m very surprised at Joe Rogan’s bad commentary in this fight as long as he’s been doing this. Bad night for Joe. Khabib was in control of the whole fight and knew he could rely on his superior wrestling at any point in time he felt in trouble. As I said before khabib stand up isn’t the best but can get the job done however both men would destroy Joe Rogan in the octagon with Khabib’s opponent was no walk in the park. Khabib’s opponent was well prepared for this fight. Good controlled fight and experience for Khabib.
Please say Khabib again cause i think we aint heard it enough.
And his opponent has a name its Al Iaquinta and this dude is a legend hes almost at the end of his career while competing at this fight.
Also you dont know Joe Rogan and how good he in the octagon is but you're not even 18 so i guess you think thats kinda "cool" to say stuff like that.
Joe saying "his stand up is not impressive" meanwhile laquinta's face is all bloody😂😂
Khabib jabs come out of nowhere that’s why he was always connecting also he knew Allquinta face was bloody and his vision impaired.
@@TVAnthologyReviews his strikes are practical not pretty nor boxing. they are sambo techniques great for hitting someone and then going for the take down with one fluid motion.
i mean it definitely gets the job done but it’s not necessarily “impressive” for a ufc fighter. the threat of his takedown and wrestling is so strong that it allows him to perform well on the feet because his opponent is always scared of Khabib shooting. Obviously that’s all apart of the game but my point is that if there was no threat of getting taken down 90% of ufc fighters are gonna smoke him in the stand up.
I mean were they doing anything at all, al was just taking them he doesn’t care
@@ovichggatall the if’s, in the real measurement of who is stronger man than other man there are no if’s, want real if? if knees and leg stomping would be allowed on the ground, he would’ve won easier and faster, but they want their fighters to live

Khabib was always steps ahead. The way he could sense when you were taking a break and just start pummeling you , to the second you were about to make a move and just shift his weight and position and keep you down. There’s been so many interviews with people who grappled with Khabib from training partners to former opponents who would detail how Khabib had amazing hip movement and positioning control with his lower body as much as his upper body.
So why he didnt make weight multiple times is he was so ahead?

Every single thing he does is so efficient. Play this at .25 speed and you will see how Khabib uses basic physics concepts instinctively. When he's on top of them? That's his body weight, his strength and gravity that the person pinned down has to fight against.
And when the fighter tries to get up, he wastes a lot of energy. And on top of that, khabib can just use all that energy the opponent is spending to also get up himself (riding the opponents back)
