Considering that I am the unprettiest CZcamsr ever, having two handsome girlfriends is really incredible. Yet you did not mention that at all. I am quite disappointed, dear mma
😂🤣 Khabib is not well rounded at all, he has the worst striking in mma, ......khabib can't knock out anyone he just smothers them, .....khabib almost died cutting weight and has missed weight multiple times, he is an oversized wrestler in a division full of mainly strikers, this is not impressive

It's funny when DC says "What did Canada win?" In 2010, the year Khabib is referencing, Canada won more gold medals than any other country at the Olympics.
Yeah Khabib was right.. Canada beat US in the Olympics with Sidney Crosby's golden score. I think he was referencing that Crosby was in contention to win the athlete of the year but GSP won.
As a Canadian, big respect to Khabib for understanding the gravity of GSP winning athlete of the year over Sidney Crosby. I smiled when he was unphased by Cormier's dumb jab.
GSP is great! I am happy for you that Canada has the GOAT of MMA! GSP is what Khabib said, he represents MMA in every way possible. Unlike some abusive steroid user which people regard as the GOAT. Yes, looking at you, Jon *cheater* Jones.
Gsp beat Sidney Crosby for athlete of the year in 2010 . Canada beat the USA 3-2 at the Olympic Games for gold on Sid the kids historic goal . Over 30 million Canadian’s watched the game on tv , which was 80% of the population. Khabib was correct with his analysis of the situation. Cheers 🍻

American Football (or Gridiron Football) is just more popular than soccer here in Canada and in America as well, just relax guys lmao.
Not only Khabib is great in fighting but his general knowledge of sports is good also especially when you spent all your time training..Even his late father also admire gsp and Khabib learn his ground and pound from seeing gsp fight..He was always very respectful to gsp as a fighter and as well as a human being.👍
And he’s 100% correct, in a Winter Olympics year where Canada was the host country and we set the winter Olympics record for most gold medals by country in a single games and all of our best athletes were on the world stage, GSP won Sportsnet athlete of the year for the third time in a row. He’s a God in Canada.
I love how Khabib used "Ambassador", a word that DC taught him back in the day. I guess his knowledge this is the best way to describe a great representative of something.
He literally used the word “represent” in this clip as well though. Khabib meant to use the word ambassador for what it means, to spread the sports popularity. He knows the word represent too
What Khabib is referring to is this......of course hockey is Canada's national sport, the best hockey players of all time are arguably Canadians (Wayne Gretzky, Gordi Howe, Bobby Orr, Sidney Crosby, etc.)...in 2010 we hosted the Olympic games on home soil in Vancouver Canada, and our golden boy of hockey Sydney Crosby, scored the game winning overtime goal (referred to as the Golden Goal) against the Americans to win the Gold Medal. An absolutely HUGE moment for our country. Sidney also led his team to win the Stanley Cup the year before....HOWEVER, GSP was such an amazing athlete and what he was doing on the world stage in MMA, actually earned him Canadian Athlete of the Year above Sidney Crosby......this accomplishment cannot be overstated, Khabib is very respectful and he completely understands this which I find quite fascinating about him. Very intelligent. With all that said, Khabib is great, but GSP is the GOAT in my opinion, best to ever do it thus far.
With all due respect, both Khabib and GSP will never admit to being the GOAT in each others company, that is how great they are. We should remember and enjoy their accomploshments, and not compare the two legends of the sport.
@@zachtavaris5378 I agree that they will never admit to being the GOAT....which is what I like about both fighters, they are both great and humble champions.
I belive that Khabib 's father loved GSP not only for his skill but because he was truely a respectful fighter. Respected his opponents and the marshal arts. A true champion and Khabib is similar in those aspects. The two GOATS. No trash talking required, just send location. LOL
I watched few gsp fight, hes the guy that after his loss he fix it sturdier than berlin wall. Khabib truly blessed can learn GSP aspect and follow his trail to become the peak of MMA artist
Man... Khabib really is a big time sports fan. The other day he was flipping some football knowledge around. Today, he's talking about Ice hockey, Stanley cup and GSP story on winning athlete of the year. The guy loves sports for sure.
@@clivejd ignore him and you are right. Also like rockhold also told how Khabib is an MMA nerd basically. He has watched almost every pride and UFC fight.
@@nicklance4662 No you play American Football which is actually played with hands while the rest of the world play real football, you folks know as soccer. But real football is far more popular than American football.
You can throw out all the fighter vitriol and non stop disrespecting of each other..Khabib and St.pierre have kept this sport grounded in respect ⚡🇨🇦 Thankyou Khabib for those kind words..
GSP is the closest we've seen to the "perfect" MMA fighter. He worked so hard to make sure he had no weaknesses. I know some haters will bring up his losses (which he avenged anyways) and whatnot but he is a true pioneer of the sport. Opened alot of doors for today's generation of fighters to be able to do what they do. Plus he dominated the crazy TRT era without being juiced up himself lol.
Khabib knows his stuff when he talks about GSP winning that award with how big hockey is with all its Canadian hockey players. It was a big deal when it happened. It was big for GSP, for Canada and for MMA.
Proud Canadian here! Khabib is referencing Sydney Crosby, who scored the game-winning goal in overtime of the gold medal game, beating team USA in front of a home crowd in Vancouver! That was one of the most unforgettable moments of my life
You can see how much he admires GSP and they both have respect for each other. Great athletes! khabib actually knows a lot about sports and really accurate too
I gotta say khabib gives respect when respect is due and people gotta stop saying he was running away from the sport cause we all know he would still be champion he’s just to dominate and it feels like gsp passed the torch to him . All I gotta say is both amazing fighters but amazing people first cheers from Newfoundland Canada 🇨🇦 ❤️💯
Khabib is clever. he has accomplished his goals and money is not everything to him. he knows no need for him to wait until getting brain damage to retired, also Islam Makachev is on the line.
The more I watch this man speak the more I enjoy it he’s such a gentleman I like how he doesn’t allow himself to be brought into wasteful conversation and he only speaks about things he knows about. This is a wise man brought up by a wise father and a good family. I’m very happy he went out of the sport in such class I wish he would have given us a few more fights but that’s ok he knew his limits and he understands time waits for no man.
Like usman said, Khabib is like GSP in the sense that until he gets old, any lightweight champion will have their career revolved around whether or not they could beat or compete with khabib
Amazing that khabib knows so much about George's career. We in Canada now put GSP right up there with Wayne Gretzky. Do proud of his accomplishments for our country
That's like racism Hating a whole race when literally everyone is different. It's nonsensical fantastic fantasy land drama is literally what it represents and stands for as a whole. It represents a whole country of fantastic fantasy racists.
There is no "greatest" of all time, there are simply those who are great at the times they fought. You can't compare Khabib to GSP because they fought at different time periods. Khabib has the advantage because MMA in general has adapted and evolved.
@@bestmtgdecksever5392 Naw. That’s the worst argument. Of course the sport evolves like anything else in life. But there are always those who set the bar and standards from the very beginning. Michael Jordan, Maradona, Michael Phelps, etc., GSP is the GOAT of UFC. Both mentally and skillfully.
Yes, because that takes next level determination which khabib does realise, albeit not in the Ufc. Khabib also lost in Sambo and came back to avenge that loss that's why he recognises that losing and coming back is next level thing
The interview doesn't only shows how great gsp is, it also portrays how great khabib is. Both goat in their division and all time great! Both beast in the cage and gentleman outside of the cage. They didn't need to trash talk to sell, their abilities talked for them. True champions.
the greatest thing about GSP I think his mindset and humbleness he got in to MMA because he was heavily bullied as a kid and usually people like this 90% of the time become bullies themselves when they gain the power to bully people but it just made him humble. I tell you this and it's definitely true that most of us would not be humble if we were in his place
@@Blueicyyy It's true that at some level some form of being tough on someone or even harsh can be incredibly helpful in their development. The issue is that most people when they do it are not coming from a place of helping people grow but simply to destroy people. Whether we admit it or not, there are far more people who get destroyed from bullying than those who turn out to become gsp.
What made GSP different from the rest was that he respected the people he fought no matter who they were and exhibited great humility...That for me is what sets GSP apart from the rest.. Yes he was an incredible talent in the ring but he did not trash talk or disrespect anyone and when opponents shot their mouths off at him, he absorbed it all and transmuted it back into the fight...in true martial art philosophy.
DC needs to take it easy and NOT try to patronize KHABIB's knowledge of sports. He may be having a much better insight than most of the Ufc commentators there but the English language is a clear detriment in expressing himself. KHABIB is not just an exceptional athelete but he is way smarter than the entire Ufc roster.
My thought that DC amuses how Khabib know this knowledge. He surprises everyone with his football knowledge, and then Canada came up and even I taken aback how Canada fits with greatness of GSP until Khabib explained.
Great to see this! Kahbib's opinion means alot to everyone and to hear him talk so well about George, my favorite fighter, is awesome. God Bless them both!
One of the greatest ever to complete in mma and most ruthless bashing ever given to opponents in the 155lb division and look at him talking about how great gsp was and how he and his father admired him. It's the humbleness and true honesty that people love in them.
I think you can really see Khabibs inspiration from GSP in both of their Ground and pound. The way they both drop bombs on the ground looks so similar.
Ruthless?? 😂🤣 khabib can't knock out anyone he just smothers them, khabib almost died cutting weight and has missed weight multiple times, he is an oversized wrestler in a division full of mainly strikers, this is not impressive
@@worldpeace8824 there is far more striking in mma than in boxing, I really don't think you understand mma, maybe you should stick to wwe wrestling lol
@@worldpeace8824 you must be casual if you think mma does not have alot of different striking techniques, ....go watch boxers vs kickboxers, the boxers get destroyed lol, boxing is not complete striking, if you don't realise this then you are the casual
Man this is a great homage to the welterweight goat by the lightweight goat. Fighters now and in the future may technically surpass him as future generations always will, what he was able to achieve at a time when MMA was considered a fringe sport is something nobody has done since. Yes Connor/Ronda were huge, but they stepped into a globally recognised sport. What GSP did for mma inside and outside the ring is nothing short of legendary.
GSP is still the best of the best for me and I have the highest of respect for DC and especially Khabib and his father and when they train to fight like you and now there dominating the UFC then this is the ultimate complement.
@@ScOrPiOn-B52 man are you serious, the guy became the best all round fighter in UFC history and wins 90% of greatest ever polls worldwide and that's because he retired with the two belts to Dana White's discust and beat more Hof fighters than anyone else and like Khabib Never failed a drug test.
It's always great hearing these two talk with each other. They are good friends and they both hold each other in high respects but throw friendly competitive love around.
GSP and Khabib both are such amazing ambassadors of MMA. Humble yet completely dominant. All the flashy, cocky fighters drive me nuts and l love to see them lose. GSP and Khabib deserve nothing more than the best always because their hearts and minds are just as amazing as their fighting abilities. Respect.
Khabib is a really good speaker because he’s confident despite him not knowing all the right words. He doesn’t waste time trying to find them he just keeps the explanation.
He wasn't just the first to have a well-rounded skill set. He made each component of that skill set magnify the other components. He used his striking to make his takedowns more effective and used his takedowns to make his striking more effective. That's why he could beat up superior strikers and take down superior wrestlers.
Yes he's not a known finisher unlike some explosive fighters but he elevated his game to exploit weaknesses from his opponents by completing his overall game just like khabib said. And most of all, he represents well what MMA and martial artists are supposed to embody: humility, discipline, and respect. Something that is gradually overshadowed by trashtalk and arrogance today. Lead by connor mctapper.
Khabib is so humble and really explains things well. GSP was my favorite fighter because he was classy and such an ambassador of peak physical fitness and mixed martial arts

Yes, because that takes next level determination which khabib does realise, albeit not in the Ufc. Khabib also lost in Sambo and came back to avenge that loss that's why he recognises that losing and coming back is next level thing
He talked about the revenge GSP took over them.
The interview doesn't only shows how great gsp is, it also portrays how great khabib is. Both goat in their division and all time great! Both beast in the cage and gentleman outside of the cage. They didn't need to trash talk to sell, their abilities talked for them. True champions.
Huge respect for Khabib.
Khabib has some good GK...so good Cormier couldn't believe
I assume GK means General Knowledge right?
@@jms7265 yes
Khabib is one of the most intelligent fighters ever. Straight up
@@jms7265 i thought he was a good goal keeper
Takes one to know one...👊🙏💯
Khabib is like GSP, every interview I hear then speak, I love them even more. Real gents
Two all time greats talking about THE all time great. Love the respect. 💯
the greatest thing about GSP I think his mindset and humbleness
he got in to MMA because he was heavily bullied as a kid and usually people like this 90% of the time become bullies themselves when they gain the power to bully people but it just made him humble.
I tell you this and it's definitely true that most of us would not be humble if we were in his place
bullying works as you can see
@@Blueicyyy What do you mean the guy legit said 90% of the time it will just turn a victim of a bully into a worse bully
@@MichaelBrown-rg8oi exactly and then the new bullies bully and make people not pus ees
@@Blueicyyy It's true that at some level some form of being tough on someone or even harsh can be incredibly helpful in their development. The issue is that most people when they do it are not coming from a place of helping people grow but simply to destroy people. Whether we admit it or not, there are far more people who get destroyed from bullying than those who turn out to become gsp.
Legend. Good guy and has my upmost respect. Lots of love from 🇨🇦
Khabib the genuine greatest ever to step foot in the octagon
I'm from Canada and we love GSP. Great fighter and great person as well.
What made GSP different from the rest was that he respected the people he fought no matter who they were and exhibited great humility...That for me is what sets GSP apart from the rest.. Yes he was an incredible talent in the ring but he did not trash talk or disrespect anyone and when opponents shot their mouths off at him, he absorbed it all and transmuted it back into the fight...in true martial art philosophy.
I'm so proud of Khabib going from 0 to 60 in English in only a few years.
GSP and Khabib are 2 very humble and able fighters. You don t see this much mutual respect from other fighters
The way he talks about GSP is amazing you can see the true respect in his eyes. That’s how great champions act.
Khabib won me over here
DC needs to take it easy and NOT try to patronize KHABIB's knowledge of sports. He may be having a much better insight than most of the Ufc commentators there but the English language is a clear detriment in expressing himself. KHABIB is not just an exceptional athelete but he is way smarter than the entire Ufc roster.
I think that DC was just making a lighthearted jab about Canada, I doubt ther was any disrespect intended towards Khabib
My thought that DC amuses how Khabib know this knowledge. He surprises everyone with his football knowledge, and then Canada came up and even I taken aback how Canada fits with greatness of GSP until Khabib explained.
Great to see this! Kahbib's opinion means alot to everyone and to hear him talk so well about George, my favorite fighter, is awesome. God Bless them both!
It's always striking how level-headed Khabib is whenever he gives an interview.
One of the greatest ever to complete in mma and most ruthless bashing ever given to opponents in the 155lb division and look at him talking about how great gsp was and how he and his father admired him. It's the humbleness and true honesty that people love in them.
I think you can really see Khabibs inspiration from GSP in both of their Ground and pound. The way they both drop bombs on the ground looks so similar.
Ruthless?? 😂🤣 khabib can't knock out anyone he just smothers them, khabib almost died cutting weight and has missed weight multiple times, he is an oversized wrestler in a division full of mainly strikers, this is not impressive
@@brockcharz2104 Casuals don't understand mma. Please stick to boxing.
@@worldpeace8824 there is far more striking in mma than in boxing, I really don't think you understand mma, maybe you should stick to wwe wrestling lol
@@worldpeace8824 you must be casual if you think mma does not have alot of different striking techniques, ....go watch boxers vs kickboxers, the boxers get destroyed lol, boxing is not complete striking, if you don't realise this then you are the casual
Man this is a great homage to the welterweight goat by the lightweight goat. Fighters now and in the future may technically surpass him as future generations always will, what he was able to achieve at a time when MMA was considered a fringe sport is something nobody has done since. Yes Connor/Ronda were huge, but they stepped into a globally recognised sport. What GSP did for mma inside and outside the ring is nothing short of legendary.
Canada loves khabib
He actually pays attention
It is incredible how good Khabib's ability to speak English got over time.
GSP is still the best of the best for me and I have the highest of respect for DC and especially Khabib and his father and when they train to fight like you and now there dominating the UFC then this is the ultimate complement.
Gsp start wreastling at age 18 ithink but khabib started 5 years old. Khabib is so much better and deep in wreastling
@@ScOrPiOn-B52 man are you serious, the guy became the best all round fighter in UFC history and wins 90% of greatest ever polls worldwide and that's because he retired with the two belts to Dana White's discust and beat more Hof fighters than anyone else and like Khabib Never failed a drug test.
@@ScOrPiOn-B52
You're saying that only because you are a Muslim......take out your bias religious glass and see the reality.
@@usmhaevmcgmedov5525 I mean, you can make an argument about who is the better fighter but it's clear that Khabib has better wrestling skills.
It's always great hearing these two talk with each other. They are good friends and they both hold each other in high respects but throw friendly competitive love around.
He had the best timing of any fighter ever.
Thats what I like about Khabib, he is not afraid to speak how good a fighter is, even though he is considered one of the best. He shows respect.
I think he’s talking about Sidney Crosby
He is, it was sportsnet athlete of the year where people vote for the best Canadian athlete I remember this well
@@09Ginster no hes talking about jonathan toews
this made me very emotional. Gréât respect and what GSP accomplished was mind blowing as well…. Love it all!
GSP and Khabib both are such amazing ambassadors of MMA. Humble yet completely dominant. All the flashy, cocky fighters drive me nuts and l love to see them lose. GSP and Khabib deserve nothing more than the best always because their hearts and minds are just as amazing as their fighting abilities. Respect.
Love this so much. Beautifully respectful and accurate assesment. Insightful, touching.
_I really wanna see the reaction of GSP on this video._
Hes talking about Sidney Crosby
Khabib is a really good speaker because he’s confident despite him not knowing all the right words. He doesn’t waste time trying to find them he just keeps the explanation.
Id love to see the whole interview
He wasn't just the first to have a well-rounded skill set. He made each component of that skill set magnify the other components. He used his striking to make his takedowns more effective and used his takedowns to make his striking more effective. That's why he could beat up superior strikers and take down superior wrestlers.
No wonder why GSP also admires Khabib❤❤
I could listen to these two talk fighting ALL DAY.
GSP is MMA GOAT.
In the octogon, Jones is
@@AndroidGuru13 both are
in this entire conversation Khabib was perfect in articulating his thoughts, its crazy to think he only learned to speak English recently
the IQ and memory of this man - respect Khabib. 👍
Khabib and GSP two very nice peoples and good example for kids
Yes he's not a known finisher unlike some explosive fighters but he elevated his game to exploit weaknesses from his opponents by completing his overall game just like khabib said. And most of all, he represents well what MMA and martial artists are supposed to embody: humility, discipline, and respect. Something that is gradually overshadowed by trashtalk and arrogance today. Lead by connor mctapper.
his English improved a lot.
Khabib is an absolute class act
Khabib is so humble and really explains things well. GSP was my favorite fighter because he was classy and such an ambassador of peak physical fitness and mixed martial arts
