Look at GSP being a total class act. True sportsmanship.
He never disappoints in that respect.
I wonder why people still gravitate towards a degenerate like Conor
GSP is the goat inside and outside of the cage
Doesn’t matter what you think of khabib that was an amazing performance.
@@buckodonnghaile4309 It's refreshing to say the least.
"I was impressed by his performance"
-GSP
Out of everything he said....
Finally 😂😂
Lmao i was thinkin that right when ariel asked him that question. Bispings Imitation of GSP is classic 🤣
Took him long enough
was scrolling down for this :D
Khabib has always said that GSP is his idol.
You know you've made it when your idol praises you for 20 straight minutes.
I wouldn’t use the word idol, perhaps inspiration is more fitting
@@Moath1277 Agreed, "inspiration" is better fitting.
Why not idol?
@@orangeflamesushi5231 The term "idol" is often attributed to someone or something that transcends all forms of criticism thus demands absolute loyaly.
Although I used the term more leniently, the term "inspiration" seems to be more appropriate given the situation.
Peace
@@orangeflamesushi5231 idol is more soft to describe someone like khabib. He is fighter not someone from dancing,singing, acting or artist
“I would never do that to khabib because of the circumstances behind his retirement”. That right there is the class act gsp. The sport needs more champs like khabib and gsp
100% the best role model in all of mixed martial arts. Might be 1A and 1B between GSP and Khabib. These are two people who have elevated the sport to new limits through not only excellence in the octagon, but excellence of character.
@hhhk20 lol and why tf did you think id care about what you have to say?😂 feel better now “big” guy
@C Rizzy who was talkîng about his father,religion,wife
@@rrvd689 right, not a great example like GSP is!
@C Rizzy don’t forget the video that was leaked of Khabib disrespecting a homeless person!
So many of his fans have tried to explain it away but the truth is he was having fun at someone else’s expense plain and simple!
Khabib: I'm retiring
Lightweights: Alhumdulilah
You cracked me 🤣
Perfect 👌🏻
😀🤣🤣
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
after khabib...there only champion among the losers left...😂😂😂😂
Khabib: 29-0 against humans, 1-0 against bears, 0-1 against his father after he jumped out of the cage. Respect. Enjoy retirement, GOAT.
I was cutting onions when I read this comment.
Correction. He is 0-2 as he was schooled by Vladimir Putin too.
0 1 to the great Abdulmanap Nourmagomedov may he Rest In Power.
Perfect
He’s prob put 10 bears to sleep in his childhood.

It's pretty wild because there's a ufc 209 embedded video where GSP sees khabib and wishes him luck. Khabib looked star struck and now GSP saying these amazing compliments about him. The world works in amazing ways.
Khabib's fearlessness to walk down & even chase down Gaethje standing up was unbelievable to watch.
Definitely... Plus he stood toe to toe with conor and dustin.
It's f*cking crazy how the last crop of top guys all ended up in that position seated against the cage while Khabib ties their legs up..
He is soooooo gooood...pressure brotha
Seriously. Especially after seeing what he did to Furguson
@@olbaprabocse9940 but they didn't look the same cos of the fear of takedowns. They looked hesitant and then realise its hard to strike when ur being pressured alot. Plus khabib striking is very decent with a defence so never gonna take a big shot as he doesn't over commit.
"I pay a room for you at a quiet place but don't drink alcohol"
Hahahaha Khabib to GSP - Respect
Massive respect to GSP, very humble and honest, speaks his heart.
GOAT recognises GOAT
Absolutely
Absolutely... both are legends
That's not how the word GOAT works
@@bork3592 Oof. Did he say khabib is better than him?
@@bork3592 I don't honestly. Just want to see them both retired and happy
The legend famous for saying “I’m not impressed by your performance” just said “I was impressed by his performance”. That says a lot...
He was still throwing subtle shade at Anderson Silva, but he was right overall in that you have to realize when its time to retire.
@Naoki Yoshida_ Fan I'm sure Khabib would be more than happy to come out of retirement for 2 seconds to knock you out.
And lets be completely honest. GSP was also talking about himself. Why come out of retirement just to get knocked out? Of course he is not going to push for a Khabib fight. It has nothing to do with "class". He sees how Silva is getting beat now, and Silva was always better than GSP, so he doesn't want the same to happen to him.
@Naoki Yoshida_ Fan cmon man don’t be salty; it’s Khabib’s retirement.
That was trash talk for GSP
Back in the day
And of course he apologised, as soon as he heard it correctly
ONE of the VERY BEST HUMANS to grace the MMA game
GSP: "He's a perfect role model for the community".
The most humble and the most high.. G.O.A.T
Yes, khabib is the Goat
@@pacotocino6034 both
Can you guys just imagine the press conference
Gsp: ya I think khabib may be the greatest, ya know all he’s done over the years and how dominantt he was.
Khabib: no no stop gsp the greatest don’t listen to this guy, to humble this guy here.
I can totally imagine that happening lmao.
They are both looks so wholesome XD
@@tuahsakato17 hugs in between rounds as well
seriously, right? It would be total bonkers. I mean the PC for Khabib and Holloway was great and respectful enough BUT PC for Khabib and GSP? Both are exceptional humble AND respectful champions, non-trash talkers with MASSIVE worldwide followers, I could see the main difference already compared with other fights PC.
Other PC: I am so good, see my past accomplishments, see all my opponents bad stuffs. Im gonna win.
Khabib/GSP PC;
Khabib: I know i am good with unbeaten 29-0 winning streak and #1 P4P BUT pls respect my opponent, he is soo good and amazing. He is a 2 division champion and retired as a champion, he is the greatest and my idol.
GSP: No no brother, i know i am very good, a two division champion, but Khabib is the most dominant and scariest fighter ever, totally unbeaten in 11 years with 29-0 record. Its crazy ad you grew up wrestling bears. I watched all your fights where you totally bullied all UFC best fighters. You made me want to learn more and more about fighting.
Total bromance.
@@eazyeddy4899 Wrestling / jiu jitsu hugs during rounds, smiles in between 🤣🤣🤣
When Justin said he was gonna put Khabib fans in tears, he was not lying lol
Lol forreal
true 😭😭😭
he never said that
He never said that...
You got them jokes!!!! Lol
Really sucks Khabib's final fight had to happen in a empty arena. No one deserved a huge ovation more than him. At the same time it was more emotional hearing his sighs/deep breaths so clear.
Man that's tough. 😔
Cant agree more Im so overwhelmed 😣
it's bittersweet. what you say is true but part of me is happy he was able to hush the arena down to have that moment of silence after the fight where he got down on his knees and just let everything go. such a raw moment that might not have been possible with thousands of screaming fans present
@Mike '2blac' Perry are you dumb?
It’s lonely and quiet at the top 🦅🦅
There is a lightyear of difference between the GOAT GSP and that roidhead Jon jones

You're clearly forgetting about the "king", and double champ... 😂😁
@@Matt-by3yd why not

This is why GSP is so respected, a legend that has alot of class,and style, and has a funny side also. 😎👍
What a nice guy St-Pierre is actually. He clearly didn't eat too many shots in his head.
Smartest champ in the history of the ufc BY FAR. Thats what partially made him such a menace as well, his ability to adapt; to make a new fightplan during the fight, to analyze and react, but in general in his way of approaching his fights as well.
see his interviews of seeing aliens dude, he has some issues in the head as well he see things sometimes, hopefully they are resolved now.
@@pakhtun7639 lol, I see them too on lsd/shrooms. It has to be freaky to see them while clean 🤪
Khabib's speech after the fight, translation:
"And now for my fans, and it would not be quite right to say "to my fans from Russia", so let's say "to all Russian-speakers", thank you so much, when I started all of this in 2008, and when I signed for UFC and had the first fight in 2012, many didn't believe in me, many thought it would be impossible. I'm a simple guy from a regular village in the mountains of Dagestan, who came over here. Just yesterday my brother told me: "According to Google you are the most discussed person on the planet". I simply couldn't believe it, because if you can imagine, I never had any of this on my mind, it was just my father and I dreaming of becoming the champion one day. I could have never imagined so much could happen to me. If you have parents, be close to them, and that's it. I have only one parent left, my mother. I would like to dedicate more time to her".
Thank you friend
Awesome translation man 👍btw where is your youtube banner image from? 🔥
Bro..thanks for this. Everytime he gave a post fight comment in russian i always thought it'd be more or less the same. this was so much more.
Thanks for the translation man I was wondering what he said in Russian.
He really is an honourable man and it's a fact that we all should cherish our parents firstly.
Mad props! Follow ur heart
He retired and thanked Gaejthe for his help in preparation for one of his earlier fights. Khabib was like a breath of fresh air in UFC !
Yes, he would.
Gaethje*
Class Act
Indeed...Khabib changed my perspective I had since he jumped into the crowd. I now respect Khabib alot more. Good job Sir.
Bro I know Khabib has grown up this year but he had a reputation of being a bully to other fighters with his guys before, how people forget facts people are prisoners of the moment
Both GSP and Khabib are incredible role models in MMA. I’m almost glad they didn’t fight. Different eras
Let them bask in that glory! They both deserve to live with their own victories in their own time. Agreed.
I'm glad you not going to ref their fight if they do fight.
George is an absolute class act - always humble. This is the stuff legends are made of...
"I would never dare to do that, b/c of the circumstances." Wow, what class.
For anyone who's asking what Martial Arts is. That Quote is exactly it; character, respect, humility.
this is what you call class vs no class
it's really beautiful to see
@@peterorosz9278 where is the no class? This is just about gsp and khabib being good sportmans, what are you on about?

Not just in MMA but in life in general too he has bright practical outlook and perspective.
He does French commentary for the UFC!
Motivational speaker!!!!
@@trailsandtribulations7137 really? i had no idea. I mean it makes sense that UFC has commentary in all popular languages. But i didn't even know he worked with the UFC at all. Would you say he's equivalent to what Cormier's doing?
GSP grows in your eye every time he speaks so passionately about other MMA fighters of his caliber.
This man has something that Connor will never have ..it’s called class .
“What we do is the sport, the sport doesn’t go beyond human side” --GSP such a legend
Huh? I don't get it
Yeah I don’t get it. Maybe I’m confused because I’m expecting it to be more profound than it actually sounds 🤷🏻♂️

@@lorenzo399 fair enough. But I'm sitting here thinking 154 people get it and I don't hahahah

Dam the most underrated comment
@Alexander_Caustic_ Nox thank god
True that, they're all like, Thank you🙂
I've only seen this same comment 3 times since yesterday
GSP is so effortlessly cool. His humility and personality traits show that he has been raised by a good family. Cheers to you champ..
Couldn't agree anymore 👌
Not just GSP but also Gaethje
I dont care what his critics have to say, in my eyes Gaethje his still a true warrior, at least he didn't make excuses like McGregor and tell the world He won 2nd or 3rd round against Khabib.
This Gaethje guy on the other hand, took it like a man, in a humble way, He still made a positive out of his defeat, showed true sportsmanship and respect and even congratulated khabib and the fight for his father. His clearly a decent wonderful human being, and since Khabib has retired, I have now my own favourite fighter and that's Gaethje. I hope He now goes onto become the New light weight champion of the World in the next year or so to come.
@@muhammedPies Gaethje seems like a good human being, but no way he is as good a fighter as GSP or Khabib. He has to work a long way up and prove himself before he can be named among the GOATs..
Lol I know, he's just a super likable guy and a class act
My favorite UFC star beside Khabib. Watched so many of GSP's fights with friends, screaming our heads off as he was dismantling his opponents. I have equal respect for both GSP and Khabib; there are many similarities between them, not only in their winning performances and domination, but also between their personal values, legacies, and how they impacted and improved the sport.
I firmly believe that GSP was one of the dominant forces for USADA rules to come through. Khabib was a voice behind bringing back respect within the sport.
Both were INSTRUMENTAL as UFC ambassadors.
I think Khabib vs GSP may take place at 165 LBS., but obviously outside of UFC, and likely as a charity event.
Loving the comments section here, massive respect to all the great comments and to the great man himself GSP and of course to Khabib
That's the happiest I've ever seen GSP :) The degree of his respect for Khabib (the man) and Khabib's accomplishments just radiates.
"I am impressed by your performance" - Georges St-Pierre

He’s finally impressed by His performance
Justin : im a D1 wrestler
Khabib: you ever wrestle a bear
It was Khabib's striking that won him this fight. He did struggle to get a take down in the first round which has never happened to him before.
@@zeaferjones1404 didn’t even try to get one lol
@@zeaferjones1404 Have you seen Khabib’s fight vs Tibau? Lol
@@zeaferjones1404 he didn't struggle, it's just that Justin wouldn't stop walking back, but the second he stopped khabib got him
Zeafer Jones yea, watch again... he tried twice and got the second one. Keep in mind that a lot of times he shoots for a takedown but also to close distance for close boxing, then reshoot. The entire point of him the first round was to wear Justin down... khabib said he would wear him down, and when he did shoot and make full contact he absolutely dominated Justin, took him down, passed and mounted easily. Second round he was kicked, shot as he was going down, got a leg and dominated again. I'm shocked how easy he made it look on the ground
I just imagine Khabib watching this and hearing Georges telling him to enjoy life and to stay close with his family... then one of his kids walks in the room and asks Khabib to go play with them. Khabib smiles, looks at the screen and closes the TV. End of the legacy. Amazing.
You are a good story teller
If they make a movie of Khabib, you should join the team
That's GOAT imagination
You are a good story teller 😂
Great visual you should write more
The boss has approved it. Khabib is the GOAT of this time along with GSP.
Khabib and GSP are the standard bearers of this sport. Perfect models of what values must a person embody to get to be a champ. Tremendous respect for both these guys.
I felt so heartbroken watching Khabib fall to his knees and cry for his father, I'm glad he retired on top after his mother told him that without his father he shouldn't be fighting anymore. If that doesn't touch your soul you might as well be a zombie. Respect to Khabib.. The best to ever do it!

I agree GSP and Khabib are best ambassadors this sport has seen. Jones and Silva have done great things too but each have records that are somewhat blemished. I would not argue with anyone who says GSP is the GOAT, nor would I argue with anyone who says Khabib is the GOAT.
I'm very impressed by GSP's humility.
Jep thats what make him the GOAT
very kind hearted man, as it s obvious from the light of his face, great to listen to you GSP!!
A fighter who respects and a fan of another fighter genuinely! Priceless. The sports needs this
Georges sounded impressed by his performance
Or working as a salesman for their fight
@bob ali hahahaha I was saying it kind of joking
🗣🗣😆🤣🤣
I'm so relieved Georges was impressed with his performance.
I think the real question everyone wants answered is, “Is David Choi impressed with Khabib’s performance?”
It’s a shame that people see this comment and scroll without knowing the meaning of it 😂😂
matt hughes be like👁👄👁
this is such an underrated comment
I was looking for this comment 😎
The respect under these fighters is the best of it. I love this so much! If Khabib watch this interview his heart will heal for sure. Thanks Georges 🙏
GPS what an amazing guy, great to see an athlete that is so intelligent, humble and respectful.
khabib: RETIRES
lightweight strikers: ALHAMDOULILLAH
😅😂🤣
hahahahhahah
😂😂😂😂😂
😂😂👍👍👍
You choked me out bruh 😆😆
Imagine a GSP vs Khabib press conference
Throwing complements at each other
“He’s nice guy but I still smesh him”
It will be so much better than all the other loud mouths...
That'd be fresh.
I can imagine khabib has him on the ground just saying I like your style while smashing him
@@someonesomewhere7684 lmfao
GSP is so nice... Thank you guys for this interview!!
Gsp was impressed by his performance
I was sad after Khabib announced his retirement but listening to GSP made me feel better about it.
yeah, he's very considerate and positive. Class act.
Agreed 100%
@@themememan361 and who cares ? Lol nerds
Shut up
GSP eases the pain.
Plot twist: his father knew he would retire, and that was his 30th victory.
Beating himself, and choosing family over career.
Deep. I like it.
Beautifully said
Wow - beautiful word sir 👏
Wow! 30-0
You win the Internet today
khabib nurmagomedov is on whole nother level
What a great man!
Georges looks so happy. He looks like he's in a great place mentally. Happy for him.
When GSP calls Khabib career and final fight “perfect” multiple times, that’s close to having his late father being super proud of Khabib
this is a very poetic
GSP is one of the GOAT's and has inspired Khabib but he's not his father and to compare what he said to Khabib's late fasthers pride, is a bit of a stretch and does massive disservice to both.
@@QlockworkOrange That's not what the OP meant...I think!
Khabib's father would be proud to ear GSP say what he said about his son.
I might be wrong....pas fort fort mon Anglais! ;)
What a guy. A true sportmanship, salute and big respect for GSP. Very humble, the positive character of champion. All the best for you GSP.
