Smart guy.
Has fame ,has money, has his health and time to enjoy it with his friends and family.
Walking away in a timely fashion is the most difficult thing to do.
Real reason of retirement - can't handle the fame
Khabib fans - he retired because his father died.
@@siddhant8430 that must be a factor bro
social media and youtube only show what they want u to show. every story has 2 sides to it. and if u wanna call yourself the best u better give other champions an opportunity to prove themselves against you
I read your comment in my head the way Khabib talks lol
Serious question: Do smart guys fall for religious dogma?
Who else in this world could go 29-0 and stay this humble??
I can’t say enough good words about this legend who oozes of wisdom!
Izzy at one point was 31 - 0
More you hear from him the more you love him…what a authentic role model in such a naff world!
Yh right if Khabib was an ordinary person you wouldn't be saying that see how fame changes you
I was never a fan but since he has retired I've been following him more and he really is a good , humble person. My respect for him now is thru the roof.
If you are becoming a fan of him, you are becoming a fan of Islam's beauty.
But:
He has nothing to do with Islam. He is the biggest pervert and sinner. If only he knew that.
I'm writing this just for you. So you might change yourselves and know why you are living.
@@Hi-rc7im how come?
@@Mobaba1995 You know it very well. But since it's normal for you to sell women and to protect those selling them as the polices, spend bet money, fighting people in the name of your nations gods,
it is normal that it feels normal to you, to display naked women, hitting people and calling it "sports", making people bet money, worshipping the devil.
As I said, you are those that were born from them already.
Abdulmanaps legacy lives forever
I highly respected this man he respects his father and his religion and he is a respectful man
Khabib is the ONLY fighter I will click on as soon as I see his headings he teaches as he talks saw him last year in Birmingham soòoo happy i took a photo with this LEGEND 🤗❤
I liked your comment

Man you don't get friends like this no more 🙏🇬🇧 god bless
That's one of the reasons I hung up my gloves... The fire died so to speak... The adrenaline is just gone and I wasn't excited like I was in my early fights... I was a father for the first time and I just couldn't focus anymore on the opponent across from me... Sometimes your passion has a way of showing you, your meant for other things. I don't regret retiring... Being a dad made me cherish every second of my choice.
Good choice, brother! 👍
Always family first!
@@Syonaga_Auron777 thank you!
This guy is always real.No arrogance or trash talking.A real champion on and off octogan
Dudes is the best out there, must humble champion you could meet. #1 in my book, God bless the eagle
God" comes from Indo-European Chodā, Goda and means "come to yourself", monotheistic religions changed that to a higher personified authority but in reality most people who believe in "God", also believe in themself in a special way, they are convinced that something is with them, specially when they succeed.
@@Larrypint gods name isn’t god. God can be make, female, multiple and used for false gods.
@@Larrypint
What’s your point?
@@Larrypint As Muslims, we believe Allah is the source of all power as He is the all-powerful. Once you have full conviction that Allah is on your side, you become unstoppable. You see this with Khabib, and you see it with Muhammad Ali the greatest of all time. Both of them had unwavering faith in Allah and that’s where they drew their confidence and strength from. I invite you to look into Islam and learn about your relationship with Allah so that you could also be the best version of yourself. If all you know about Islam is from the media, then you have an incredibly biased and skewed understanding of Islam. So brother please look into it sincerely.
Wow blown away by his relatability. This guy is a great person as well as a champion. Just being honest is a huge character feature not many people have the guts to face.
It is taught heavily in Islam to not lie so his honesty stems from that
"Khabib, I just want to be humble."
I always got the impression Khabib loved the competition aspect of MMA but he never liked physically hurting his opponents. This has not to do just with his temperment, it's also a result of his faith In God. And he never really enjoyed the fame aspect either because he knows that's not important to God at all. So it must have been very hard for him to have peace of mind while he was an MMA fighter...but I see now Khabib has much more peace of mind. People who say he retired too early don't know what they're talking about. He retired at the top of his game as Champion with no career losses and in great physical health with no serious damage...THAT'S EXACTLY THE WAY YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO RETIRE!!!
We care Khabib,we care and we love you because you are perfect example of warrior and champion ❤🇬🇧✌
Iv always respected this man. He always spoke from the heart. Never an act.
" with fame, some people lose their mind" ... Very True!
epic man !!! we don't have people like khabib walking this earth every moon!
In the moon, for sure we don't have it 😊
@@intimatespearfisher Khabib just decoded that for how long can you fight for a reason. Once you get the top belt, then what next. His motives are clear and his consciousness is awake.
@@intimatespearfisher khabib is from Dagestan
@@intimatespearfisher after an invasion
@@intimatespearfisher Khabib isn't Russian. He just happens to live somewhere which was invaded and occupied by Russians.
His behavior probably isn't alien in his own region among his ethnic group but I'd imagine it is probably just as alien to the Russians as it is to us in the west.
The people of his region are simply built differently.
Khabib is pure class, man of his word. Even after becoming the GOAT he's still standing with his feet on the ground. Humble and honest. Not many people are so strong (phisically and mentaly) to be able to do this.
Many people lose their mind.... I swear I could listen to this man for ever.... Pure as pure this man... No flashy crap no attention seeking just pure golden
if you like khabib you should watch his favourite show, its just like him "Ertugral Resurrection" on netflix and online. the best series i've ever watched.
Buy his Platinum card off me then and get personalized invites from him.
@@gerryboy3699 Had no idea Khabib watched that show too.
One night I'm half asleep at 1 am flipping through netflix looking for something to watch so I can fall asleep. I see some B movie looking picture with a guy wielding a sword.
I click on it and before I knew it I binge watched it for like 3 weeks. That show Ertugrul Ressurection is insanely good.
@@williamdavis9562 you lucky lucky man, 3 weeks in, you got the best to come. It starts off good but just gets better and better and then it becomes well , the best thing you will ever watch in your entire life. Wait till you meet the tribe that march around with all their enemies severed heads on poles. They are one nasty bunch he has to fight. Then there's the mongol scum , the templars, and just wait for the hunchback, he's the best villian ever created. Enjoy my friend
@@gerryboy3699 I was referring to the first three weeks as in I watched it every night till 3 am.
I've since finished the show. I tried watching the next version of it called Osman but it's not even half as good.
I'm a history buff as well so I couldn't for the life of me understand why they picked some Pakistani looking kid to play Osman. In real life Osman looked nothing like that.
I'd imagine it was a business decision considering what high ratings the show gets in that part of the world who knows.
I really gained for khabib here. He is not saying he is the best ever , but 2015-2021 the best. that is true statement and humble of him
He is best EVER , for now who can reach him is Borz then is abyss
@@jakubmaterek7017 borz is not same level with khabib. his eyes was BLACKED by durinho
@@jakubmaterek7017 jon jones, anderson silva, gsp, people have a short ass memory lol
a true fighter and champion doesn't need fame!
You got my full respect!
being famous is like walking around with a target on your back
Made By McGregor
@@xwolfensiriusx Destroyed McGregor*
@@BhaiAmiGamer Conor can destroy him, it would be fair, Conor come back from retirement when he had a fight with scared Kabob, now Kabob come back and have a fight with Charles who is in his prime now
@@xwolfensiriusx Lol he has his own fighting promotion efc . Why would he go to ufc now you dummy 🤣. To give away his rights ? And conor distroy who ? that drunk mctapper who cheats on his wife ? He will get slapped by old man nowdays
"If you don't feel fire, you have to Quit!" Khabib
I'm not Muslim, I'm a proud westerner. I drink but don't smoke and live a good life... but if this man was my friend, I would definitely follow this man through a brick wall! Every word that comes out of this man's mouth is Gold! What a Great person!!
Is westerner your religion
Repure.Hope you well. Inviting you to accept Islam. Khabib is like he is because of Islam
Follow him then .to Islam,😜😊😊
@@bonum_consilium4998 Well according to Islam and other religions in fact , prize fighting is sin just so you know religion should never be involved into fighting business by doing so either you don't know your own religions rules or you are just bending / breaking them so for a fighter to promote religion it's pretty hypocrite
@@armanx2 inviting you to Islam as well.
One of the most genuine guys in MMA.
what a great champion in and out the ring
bless you sir
your father is so proud of you !!!
Brother Khabib, You're the people champ,you did so much for muslim community by showing good characteristics and much more.Love you in name of Allah.
That's the spiritual being in Khabib talking - May Allah be with you through and through Champ! Aamin.
Khabib is a true champions champion. There is no one like Khabib that came before him. His focus, determination, humility, work ethic, and understanding is 2nd to none in this game. He has changed the game forever. I hope so many follow in his footsteps and the UFC changes to be more like him.
Yeah I agree, I think this rings true across all combat sports, not just mma. Khabib is; outside of the cage, just like how he was inside the cage. On another level.
Bruhhhhh.. Ali doesnt exist or something... Because Muhammad Ali was a hundred times the man khabib is and khabib will tell you that himself. How can you say there was no one like him before him. SO many greats and legends have come before him. Shame on you
@@Carlossteezyblunts Its obvious he is talking about mma.. Ali was in boxing... Also what do you mean a hundred times better than Khabib.. In which aspect? Like a fighter? Like a personality, or both? And lastly, how u assume Khabib will humiliate himself to show respect to Ali? How did u assume that and you talk like u are 100%sure about Khabibs answer, like u asked him by urself... Shame on you for taking such a positive comment about a legend negatively...
@@Carlossteezyblunts I should have specified MMA. Ali was the greatest in boxing no question. I wasn’t comparing Khabib with Ali
@@Zach_Routhier and I'm sure he has close relatives who are terrorists.
The near-impossible. A humble, honest person who has reached to top of his field.
You can not help liking and respecting this man. How many fighters come back and ruin their legacy? Khabib is clearly comfortable with himself. Few North Americans can say the same
God bless you young man I hope you find piece in life.
Khabib is a true champion. Now he’s going to change the game forever. Total respect for this guy.
u 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡
@@xwolfensiriusx I am pretty funny. But please explain…
Listen to "Christian Prince" in CZcams. Hes an arab and shows you all the evidence from your own islamic sources that islam is false. Lord Jesus is GOD.
@@uzi9625 Bro (or whatever you are) relax! I’m talking about MMA, not Islam. Not everything needs to be a fucking battle btw. You’d be wise to chill the fuck out.
@@uzi9625 if jesus is god, what is father and holy spirit?
I feel you man respect!
Pure, honest sincere great fighter! You became famous to inspire!
It appears he is sent down as a saint of our times touching hearts with humility and teaching to fight our ego be humble become champion of our own life. Stay bless
I think he nailed Connor mcgreggor perfectly on that last line about “some ppl lose their mind” when they get fame and success. Conor hasn’t been the same athlete or fight her in many years. The rust from lack of competing played some part in that but I think mostly it was his mental change. He began to believe the hype, began to party more and train less and when he started believing he was invincible he lost it when he was shown he wasn’t. He didn’t come back from those setbacks like he did earlier in his career and life. Kabib is one of my favorite fighters and interviews of all time.
Real reason of retirement - can't handle the fame
Khabib fans - he retired because his father died.
@@siddhant8430 Both? Both.
@@KingKing-ny2ew but khabib said fame is the real reason
@@siddhant8430 whats wrong with both statements? He lost the fire when his dad died. Also no one can handle fame. Good people just disappear
@obrovský mozek
Really unhealthy. It’s a weakness within us all. We can’t control the actions of others, but we can control our own inaction, action & reactions.
You are genuinely honest. You do what you say. Your hardwork paid off, God bless you good man, 🦅 The Eagle Khabib Nurmagomedov 🦅
Heart of a true champion
Simple man with healthy thoughts 😊
legend
Legend!!! The respect for family and humanity!!! And undefeated!!!!
Much respect
We all have huge respect for Khabib Nurmagomedov !!!! Mashallah
Imagine the insights we are all missing out on. Remember, English is a foreign language for Khabib. And still, you can recognize his authenticity.
Thats Correct
English foreign language to him simple and understandable
A True Genuine Fighter 💖💖💖
One of the straight forward man that you would ever listen to.. That is khabib. One of the greatest mma fighters ever period. He literally dominated everyone he fought with.. The guy is a kind hearted person.. Love here from India.. Don't let the success get into your head, the best example is this man right here.. Ie khabib..
Allah o Akbar.🖤☝💪
KHABIB is the man that he is because of how he was raised his Father and Mother did a great job!!..
The most honest, down-to-earth, level-headed, sensible, ultimate champion fighter that I've ever witnessed (and greatly admire). That's Khabib Nurmagomedov.
You just cannot dislike him, so down to earth after all the money and fame. Plus he did it all without all the drama. Respect.
We all Muslims proud of him.pure person ❤️
It is a real blessing to see people Like Khabib. A true legend in so many ways.
Khabib is like a Poem. A good one.
As a Mexican my respect to this warrior he is actually my favorite fighters. clean heart and the best that everyone of us should do more fight for what you love and your love one's. Respect for other to get respect. you earned by being kind and following our grand father's and grandmother's foot step that's work harder and good thing Will happened 💯🇲🇽👍
Khabib is one among 100
Great person, God bless him, his family, and loved ones. So happy to have such person on this earth. Praise God for him and being a role model. I whish so much that I could meet him one day in person. Maybe the Lord will bless me and could meet him and also Fedor someday.
Such a humble full down to the earth guy!! Respect!!
The man is an awesome fighter and person. U can tell how true he is as a man. A fighter. A friend n teammate. Dude is the real deal
I admire this Man.
Khabib says I'm not fight for money.. i fight for legacy and my people's ... 🔥👏☝️
Big respect to Khabib for being a real man . . . No BS just honesty !
God Bless Him
Mashallah my brother I can listen to you when you speak all day I know all that you say comes from the heart I’m jealous as your mentor was your dad he taught truth honesty and respect I’m glad I got to see you fight and hear you talk thank you my brother
Khabib is awesome... Good thinking, good values. Cheers from America
I don't know too much about him. But when I listen, I hear a very wise man.
Khabib is Total opposite to what the western materialized culture is and has become ! Listening to Khabib is like a breath of fresh air !! Respect to you and your family Khabib ! You were the greatest Lightweight ever !
True champ really always reminds us of Allah inshallah Allah spare him many more years to help many people Alhamdulillah
Love Khabib
Khabib sets the bar higher than any professional athletes could ever set his dedicated and focused but very humble
What a guy credit goes back to his Mom and Dad they raised him right
Big respect a role model to every young man growing up
Not many famous people have the same thinking...but Khabib just simply wants to be the best MMA fighter and not really into the glamorous life...Like Keanu Reeves he's one of the biggest actors that take a subway train and just trying to be a simple person and also not really like a glamorous lifestyle.
But that's life if you're famous ...they just can't get away from their fans and camera..Most of the times even famous celebrities just can't get their privacy especially in the public.
Keanu Reeves? 🤣 If you see him out in public its probably just part of his marketing strategy.
Good comparison. Most humble actor, gives a big part of his earnings to charity and only has an apartment. Never changed after getting famous and rich
Keanu reeves do that for marketing strategies, dont be fooled by hollywood
@@love187punk u clearly don’t know enough about him. He doesn’t like to be in the spotslights. Give most of his earnings to charity. Donates all his money from matrix and don’t take any script they give him just for money.
I wish i was into the ufc when this guy was around. Just heard of him like 2 weeks ago and now I wanna get into mma and I'm 27🤣 I am jealous of his simple life. He is wealthy not just in money, but in spirit and loved ones. I can't have a good life anymore, but it makes me happy knowing a man like khabib is walking this earth at the same time as me
Watch khabibs episodes on Anatomy of a Fighter. Super interesting stuff
@@hajratahir3119 yeah been watching that. It is super interesting!
@@marttram2183 IAmTheBay is great to, you get insight into how the team trains

"cant have good life", keep the hopes up and dont give up buddy
This man is a Champion whom I admire! He tells you the truth!
This guy is very philosophical.
He obviously doesn’t like fame but wanna be the best in the world.
The two are mutually exclusive brother.
The fame you have is what some people are doing to get.
But you see life more deeply than most of us.
Respect brother!
The more I watch and listen to Khabib the more I like and respect him.
He came, he saw, he fought and won. and then healthy retired in humble way.
That man is incredible
Very well said and agree 👍
Respect khabib true champion
all the best
I'm 40 yrs old i wanna become humble like this guy....
That is a very good man ! Very loyal trustworthy honest man
No he betrayed his wife and chasing an afghan 19 year old girl. Threatened her... But no one in Western media ask him about this topic.
Right on my brother ❤️
@@beebeemo look at his Instagram. There are hundred of comments from her family. She is not allowed to leave her house anymore. Is like his second wife. In this interview he also mentioned the problems with fame...
Total respect to khabib . Excellent fighter yes , but his best points , he is humble and respectful the quality of the man speaks for itself . May he be equally successful in his future ventures .
One of the most humble celebrity
Honest and powerful, may Allah bless you with all happiness and success in your life and many Allah give jannatul firdaus to your father Ameen
I would have never guessed how thoughtful and rooted this guys life was. Watching him in the ring you would have thought he was a feral animal. I wish you well sir and thank you for a an entertaining half decade. You were definitely one of the best we have ever seen.
The only example I can think would be inspirational for him now, would be the greatest sportsman of the last century Muhammad Ali and how he lived after his boxing career.
Khabib speaks truth he wears his heart on his sleeve what you see is what you get from him good guy!!
Khabib "Like" Nurmagomedov
My Respect to the champion for conquering the ring and himself. What a person.
Legend in and outside the ring, and a man of honor & wisdom. Imagine if they can be half of what he is like, the world would benefit to have a real friend, a solid fighter, a husband and a man of honor. This isn’t just a champion, he is supremely moral for today.
Thats islam teaching, Real islam Not to be mistaken as The one medias Perceive us as.
You are a wise and just man, your heart is in a good place. Peace be with you and your family.
You understand the depth , warrior within yogic spirit ..
It's not really a desire to not fight imo. As you get older, you realize a lot of things aren't what you think they are.
Would you rather be the goat or have your dad beside you? If you didn't choose your dad ... You're looking at life the wrong way.
I get the gist of what you're saying and I agree with it to an extent... However, if you have a dad that has been in any sort of way very detrimental to your own growth in life and was (for example) an abussive kind of guy or a drunk, maybe made your life a living hell etc etc you can't really say that then. You're on your own in those situations.
His dad was all about fighting and becoming goat status
@@AkuLNajicuL Yes but I'm pretty sure he/she/they were relating what they said to Khabib specifically
@@AkuLNajicuL That would be so sad😢
He makes a good point about his fights being tough. People look at it after the fact and they see him beat elite fighters and finishing tough guys one after another, and they're like, Khabib smesh, he mauls people etc. But he beats people because he works extremely hard. It's not like he's taking a walk in the park and people fall over left and right. His pace is relentless over 25 minutes, he just goes and goes and he finds answers to a variety of very dangerous skills his opponents present him with. He's beating guys that are world class - Conor, Gaethje, Poirier, etc. That's NOT easy by any stretch of the imagination. To do what Khabib did is an extremely tough job. His work ethic and heart is what made him probably the best fighter 2015-2021.
And he's 100% correct on the motivation part. This is not Tennis or something. If you don't have the hunger anymore, you'll end up getting beat up. I think Conor is the best example. His wealth and ego got the best of him, he lost his mind just like Khabib described and he's just a massively diminished fighter compared to what he used to be. Tony Ferguson too - between his mental health problems, injuries and UFCs political bullshit that left him sidelined repeatedly, I think he just lost the fire. Honestly, I think Poirier is on his way out too. Right now, Adesanya seems to be real hot, he's right in the middle of an upward trajectory.
Praise The Almighty One ☝️
Thankfully khabib has done the right thing and hope he enjoys his life with his family x
YOU R THE TRUE CHAMPION 🏆 IAM A FATHER ILL TRY TO BE THE BEST FATHER EVERY DAY AND HUSBAND AS MUCH AS I CAN THANK YOU.....🙏
I'm sure will be father . God bless you for the amazing job you are doing . 🙏
Where the hell can i find this video. I love listening to Khabib, whether its about life or fighting, this dude filled qith wisdom.
czcams.com/video/Hk3X_QNWSd8/video.html
You have always been honnesty calm pure good inside as outside and still amazing fighter anyone would have trouble to take you my son Khabib 🙏
The best ever!!
He's a well raised boy and that's rare these days! Humbleness comes from his religious values taught at home! He's all family family family! He's going to be a champ father too!
Not only is he an undisputed CHAMPION, but an undisputed human being! Thanks for the great memories!👍💪
Quality human being 🥲
I like Khabib. He's a very honest, intelligent, and humble man.
He's following in his father's foot step, taking over as a mentor and trainer. it's true for anything, if your fire goes down you don't care to do it any more as its no longer a challenge, and once you loose interest you will also loose and that will be bad thing so go out when you get the chance
