Islam is actually low key funny at times lmao "He lose on purpose" đ
He funny af
Actually he is right something was fishy in Chandler fight
Facts lol
I swear to god as an half Russian this dude funny asf in his native tongue. Give him a decent English and he will shine âš
He said 'he fight like he come from street'đ€Łđ€Ł
Chandler losing in purpose had me dying
Ofcourse if he wins he move up the rankings and wonât be chosen by Mcgregor for red panty night. Makes sense
Cuz if he beat Chandler ppl will want Connor to retire since he is on loss streak and went downhill after Khabib fight
Jon Jones is the Goat đ. Pound for Pound no 1.
A lot of people donât know how hilarious Makhachev is

It doesnât matter what anybody thinks,this guy beat the guy with most submissions in UFC history & the pound for pound champion within a span of 4 monthsâŠRESPECT!!
Very true đ
He SUBMITTED the guy with most submissions in UFC history
He beat a smaller featherweight moving up in weight lol, and has been knocked out cold in ufc before
@@brockcharz2104 Brazilian spotted
â@@brockcharz2104 what about submitting charles
This guy beat Charles, beat P4P Volkanovskiy, and he is beating english language. He came to UFC , he learned english, and he is chempion. Big respect đ đ«Ą
quality of a champion, always learning.
he speak russian, arabic and english
Islam is NOT wrong about Chandler! đ
Chandler will also let Conor win but he will do it in spectacular fashion, because he is a company man and probably made a deal with Dana for his boy to win.
Chandler could bully Conor on the ground but he'll fight like an idiot and get koed
If Conor wins its because Conor won fair and square.
I hope he doesn't eat the money and lose the fight as a deal
the biggest question is can conor make 155 again, i think not
@@psyflora I super doubt that, I think they'll make at 170 at least
Gentleman through and through. I love that these guys commit to learning English so they can promote themselves and interact with the fans.

Hahaha! Islam just discredited chandlers entire career with that losing on purpose line.
Something about Islams delivery is so matter of fact and funny⊠he always has smile on his face even though he get lot of hate from fansâŠ
Just don't get it why people hate him...its blow my mind..islam humble funny n genuine kind.

Lol BS

Islam is an all time great, we must all appreciate this man.
Struggled against a Featherweight after padding his record. He's an elite fighter but it's a bit early to call him an all time great
âAll timeâ? He hasnât been around long enough. Let him stick around more than his mate did. He wanted P2P which he doesnât deserve at all on that performance alone. He is good, but chill, they have to be if they have such ambitions
Bruh shutup Islame is a clown
Statements like this is why it's hard for me to get behind the Dagestanis đ€·ââïž
Alex whooped him
I really don't want him to strike , strike for defence only but I want him to use his Sambo wrestling and grappling to dominated the fight .
yep, as khabib says, fathers plan
He outstruck Volk but I agree
@@thenotoriousm0e852 yes that was surprising btw
He need to mix punches when he was wrestle like khabib
@@syedahrazahmed7542 he's confused cuz he got so many skills , unlike khabib he dedicated himself as the king on the ground and beats all the skills on the ground and the king of LW division only .

Such a sweet guy, can't wait to see him fight again.
Much love from India
The Real Champion, Pound For Pound.
Islams about to be pushed down to #3 P4P, and if kamaru wins he islam will get bumped to #4 and if izzy wins islam will get bullied down to #5. His controversial decision over Volk after getting his face lumped up will be the closest he will ever get to P4P best fighter in the worldđđđ

And the real number 1 pound for pound
Only thing that got pounded was his face
Jones is pound for pound number 1 volkanovski 2
Lmao Jon Jones is #1 volk is #2 and Islam is #3
â@bLaCk be deliberate while choosing your words Conor fanboy.
@bLaCk Jones is P4P king against his wife not MMA. In MMA he is a cheat and a junky Human garbage. But the UFC plot set him up to fight a 3rd best in heavyweight and get the title.
She is a great interviewer! Great stuff.

The real P4P king.
Yes.. He is the LW king.. And still!!!
It takes more than one defence from someone in a lighter division to be king lol

He's not fighting so it's understandable.. he's just enjoying himself. And as he says always learning

Yes he even looked at her smiling .â€
Yeo Islamâs input on why Chandler fought wreckless is actually eye opening
Mf really lost all his fights so he could get a red panty night đ€Łđ đ
wow. Humble and honest, love it
This guy is growing on me
After watching coach Jav's youtube vids of Islam, it made me a big fan. Islam is a genuine dude and super hard worker
King Makhachev â€
We all know that it was 4-1 Islam. But 2 of 3 judges gave him 3 rounds only. He beat Volk in his own game, in his own backyard and not even in his best physical condition. Volk was eying for that physical weakness in Islam but his mentality was so strong that it was enough to crush Volk's win-streak and his dream of being a double champ. Moral victory and huge respect to Volk though. And nothing else indeed.
self inflicted physical weakness, Islam dropped 35 pounds to fight Volk lol. The dude walks around 185-190, Khabib is over 200 nowadays. Still a beast though
â@@speedfreak2105 185 outside of camp is normal for a lightweight. Dariush Oliveira Dober etv
@@boris2967 Oh! weight up, he will. Just have patience and watch him kill the other champs. Patience is the virtue. First, let him kill Volk one more time, and convincingly this time.
Cant really be P4P if there is an argument for the condition that if Volk was a natural 155, he would of won. The whole point of P4P is if everyone can be magically adjusted to be in the same weight, who is the best fighter? What we saw was Islam struggling against a small natural 145er. So even though he may had won, he is not the P4P because it is not clear if he can still beat Volk if he did not have a size advantage.
Another way of putting it is Volk can make 155 and give Islam a tough challenge. Islam can't make 145 and even if he did, he would be to drained to stop Volk in the later rounds.
@@Newbtuber Bruhh, learn physics. If volk was the same height and weight, islam would've taken him down more easily than if he is shorter đ„Č
Always smiling... The real fighter đđđ Makachev
Regards from Mumbai India đ
Awesome interview too đđ
Islam beats the 2 longest winning streaks of oliviera and volk within the space of 4 months. Islam has to be P4P without any doubts!

@BayAreaDawah786 lol volk made islam look like the weakest champion in the UFC. Dude got his face busted up and couldnât do anything to a guy from a smaller weight class and got a controversial decision. P4P dont lie
The Magnificent Makachaev:
1. Beat the best submitter in the game.
2. Beat the P4P no 1.
All that in under 4 months.
masha allah
Submitted the best submitter in UFC*đȘ
Islam is so humble and active. Goat
The champ â€has spoken
love that the champ took the time to get his english on point
Bro he has a big chance as a comedian for real and he shy about his English level

Gotta love Islam's attitude, he's not talking about taking any break, says he'll be ready for whoever, whenever UFC calls him and goes "Dana, call me and I'll be ready!"
He also wants Dariush to beat Oliveira so he gets a new tough opponent (instead of wanting an easier win against someone he already dominated). He isn't looking for the easy path!
Pound for pound king đđ

Salute to everyone who wrote positive comments . The interview was cool and funny and the comments were too. It was a whole heartedly experience.
The world certainly feels different when we treat others with love and respect.
Amazing. Absolutely class by this guy.
i love Makachev has different personality than Khabib, when Khabib quote serious this guy seems more chill xD
Khabib is the true son of his father but Islam is the true son of his mother.
Khabib seems to be more focused on victory, he doesn't care if people won't be entertained by the way he won the fight. I think that the only thing where Khabib is better than Islam is IQ which is very important part of the game.
â@@e.a.poecrnimacak354IQ and pressure. Khabib went in to dominate people. Islam just wants the win.
@@haldir3120 Who is the grappler that Khabib dominate and who is the grappler he fought in his UFC career except Tibau who in many people's eyes beat him? How dominant someone is is the least significant thing to me.
@@haldir3120 Khabib start ground and pound the second the opponent is down while Islam seems like he doesn't know what to do once the opponent is down. He rely on the opponent getting up to counter position and tire the opponent..
Khabib can go in top gear from the moment the fight starts till the end while Islam can't..
Right on Islam! Solid guy
He looks mentally handicap in the thumbnail

His english is very good compared to 5 years back.
I really give him a lot of respect when he said he wants to strike more because the fans love it, he can always choose the easier route which is wrestling but he wants to entertain us.
The real reason is Islam Makhachev always love striking but Khabib never allowed it but now Khabib stoped coaching so Islam can finally do striking
That's the problem for him, that could be his downfall. If he is gonna do that against Dariush he is gonna get knocked out.

I can see that Islam seems more happy since becoming champ, and definitely showing more humour in his interviews.
what a great interviewer. Her energy was awesome. She was completely present the whole time.
His English is very good. The guy is likeable and his skill set is insane. This guy will eclipse what Khabib did.
Only because Khabib chose to
Bro's face's already funny even if he hasn't spokenđđđ
his english improved
Well I hope he can use his brain more during fight regardless if itâs striking wrestling or grappling đ didnât realise the absence of Khabib would have a material effect⊠Islam is such a likeable guy and I really hope he can create his own legacy
Without Khabib was like taking off the training wheels.
In fairness he went into that fight 2kg less than his normal fighting weight thanks to bullshit 24 hour recovery time. Even Alex was licking his lips when he mentioned this, confident he was going to beat a weaker-than-normal Islam. He failed. This alone justifies p4p#1 for Islam.

ISLAM such a humble and fun going person so much class.
Legend
He looked at her everytime after he finished the answer, some people don't like staring at somebody while talking especially while giving an interview. Also there were fights going on in the back on a tv. In my culture in Europe its weird to stare at someone while talking, while here in America its weird to not stare at somebody while talking.
good reporter. Proper all round questions. Proper fight talk. Thumbs up!
He wants a real challenge and sounds like he is not afraid to fight anybody unlike jon jones who chose the easiest heavyweight matchup with someone with no wrestling. Also I think islam took it easy on volk in the first 2 rounds to get a hard match and show his stand up. It was a great experience for islam and he is beating volk easier next time if they ever fight again.
Gane is suddenly an easy matchup with no wrestling. That wasn't the case before the fight. He didn't choose it, UFC booked them against each other. I agree about Islam's performance with Volk but seems to me that he still didn't learn that was a mistake. That' could be a problem, if he is gonna do that with guys like Dariush or Arman (Fiziev too) he is gonna get knocked out.
I canât understand why some people hate this guyâŠ
very good questions by the journalist and very professional
4:05 lmao - love Islam
This man is turning out to be some kind of star ainât heâŠ
For people wondering why he is not making eye contact with the interviewer, It's because in Islam we believe that eyes sin
that's why he was doing it
Respect to Islam for representing Islam as it is
After becoming champion many duck hard dangerous opponent but Islam is different not scared of anybody. Definition of a true champion
Champion like Islam is very rare he was honest about Dariush much respect to Islam
