I don't think he lacked discipline, he just never believed in it in the first place.

    There's a huge difference between Muslims fighting for the sake of defending Islam, and Muslims getting in the ring and fighting for nothing other than fame and/or money. The latter has been proven haraam. And yet we still see prominent duaat saying nothing of this and often conflating the two groups. Very concerning.

  • @STiergoofball
    @STiergoofball Před rokem

    So many is maybe a wrong word because most of the biggest fighters are Christians
    In MMA there is maybe Khabib(who is overrated) who is maybe in the top 10 UFC fighters and Usman who is like top 7(and one of my favorite fighters) and could for sure be higher in the future
    And now for the new ones there is Pereira, Khamzat and Islam but we have to see how long they'll stay on top(I wish Pereira the best because I really like him)
    And in Boxing there are Ali and Tyson who are some of the biggest
    But it would be wrong to say that they are dominating the sport because they aren't really and there are right now mostly people from other religions on the top :/
    Because I could say like a bunch of fighters from other religions who are on one Level are above the guys I called right now(at least in MMA above them, Ali and Tyson are both top 5 boxers in my opinion)
    But I don't even like it when fighting becomes a religious thing
    Why do we have to talk about what religion a fighter has instead of talking about just how good a fighter is
    This only makes war again in my opinion

    It's not "y there are so many good Muslim fighters". It's "y there are so many good Russian fighters". Outside of Russia, there are no Muslim fighters that r elite, (belal Muhammad is the only 1). And outside of Muslim Russians, there's plenty of white Russian fighters that r elite, which proves that it's jus the Russian combat school n way of life that makes these fighters this good. But I def do think that the clean Muslim way of life is definitely very beneficial n is a good characteristic for an athlete to have.

Many mixed martial arts coaches who trained some of the UFCs most elite fighters like Georges St-Pierre were Muslim, but they weren't Russian. No doubt that fighters coming from Dagestan and Chechnya are some of the most hard core fighters in the world with an amazing discipline and mentality, but I'm just writing this to prove that there are also many other amazing and elite Muslim fighters from places other than Russia.
