A real coach, lifts everyone else around him, never himself. That's a Coach!
Coach Javier deserves to be in the Hall of Fame as one of the greatest coach of all time in MMA. He's a blessing to the Dagestanis.
They haven’t done shit only 1 champ
@@arjenrobbed1294 it’ll stay one too because Charles gonna butcher Islam
@@Childofbhaal why are people rushing tomorrow night we will see how is the champion
@@arjenrobbed1294 ya you dont need 12 champion student to be a good coach you just need one who is a goat
@@arjenrobbed1294 what have you done!? internet rambos always only parlare bullshit
No wonder coach Javier is the Best Coach, not only in good technic, but he also good in personality, how he respcet Khabib' s Father, know well his student etc, high respect
Give this man the coach of the decade award
100% agree man
Coach Javier REALLY is the Head Coach ☑️☑️☑️☑️☑️
No, he`s not
He was the Boss right now. Khabib and DC make they job as coach as well.
He said it all, The fight went as he thought
I love this guy; he has a great soul and I am happy that he is the coach for the best fighters in the world
you gotta love how honest & straightforward Xavier is!
Javier is the best UFC coach. The person is very respectful towards late Abdulmanap, Khabib's father. And Abdulmanap himself was very respectful towards Javier. Amazing mutual respects. 💜
man, havier is so humble, he is also too lucky to have these dagestani guys around him bcse these guys respect elders so much and treat them like their father,amazing
Coach Javier is such a humble gentleman
love the way he calls Abdul Manap father
It's all respect that west don't understand mat3
@@abdulrahmanothman5675 bro stop being obsessed with bashing the west. I am muslim myself and I admit that the west has different values and beliefs. But it is cringy seeing muslims bashing the west at every chance they get.
@@reflectingsoul6704 I'm not obsessed my brother it's just the reality sadly for exam 2 best friends Like khabib and islam loving like brotherhood pple from the west will say oh they're gay it's just stupid the way thy think bro I'll say this west don't have morals period
@@reflectingsoul6704 You clearly don't live in the West, and if you do then you're probably a Boris Johnson fan.
And khabib’s dad always called Javier the head coach. Mutual respect between two humble people.
Velasquez, DC, Rockhold, Nurmagomedov.. and now Makhachev. Javier made monsters since the begining
Next Usman in bellator
Koschek, thomson, shamrock, bj penn, fitch, even leon edwards once trained there.
@@jaywalker6464 dont forget about Tuivasa getting better after trained there. He was in losing strike
Ain’t ending soon more on the way…………hater gotta accept it.
Javier confidence is infectious because the results he has yielded as a coach and mentor. Definitely HOFer as mentioned in previous comments.
Short of complete surprises for instance like Leon and Usman.. he's correct. If you're talking about hust skills and toughness.. Islam all day. That's not yo say Olivera can't pull it off, and the reason being is because his mind is set. He has the experience and confidence. So it's going to come down to who's more ready and who doesn't make a mistake.
Like tonight!!
He said It and his new Champion just delivered exactly what he said. The NEW Champion HAS A NAME! Has anyone else accepted a fight from a different weight class champ immediately after winning the belt like this?
Coach Javier always spitting facts 👋
Basically its all opinions but ok
@@jeffreykock2294 not true he’s the coach so he knows his fighters. You and me have opinion but not coaches 👌🏻
Coach Javier didn’t hype someone like he is doing with Islam, even khabib wasn’t hyped like that, that show the level of confidence on Islam
Not confidence but the entire camp just being over cocky recently
@@sharvenravendran8809
Only few hours remaining to see
@@sharvenravendran8809 confidence seems cocky to the weak minded folks.
@@sharvenravendran8809 Cocky and confidence are 2 different aspects that you need to differentiate. Cocky is like Conor, talking nonsense when hes drunk while coach Javier and Khabib being realistic base on statistic or their research of the oppenent, that they are able to beat Charles on certain ways.
It's called arrogance lol
It's emotional to hear Javier address late Abdulmanap as 'father', as if he was his own dad. Humility is the hallmark of this man, never elevates himself although, guiding and carrying so many beasts in his academy to success. One of the greatest of coaches of all time in MMA. Muchos respect, coach.
Javier is all time legend.. he is actually persone who have higher level coaching.. he is great human being..
What I like about Coach Javier, he treats his fighters opponents like estimate and one half notch higher
So he always telling and training his fighter to fight the best version of their opponents, and to ready for long rounds
At least that's what I see from him !
One thing is he doesn’t celebrate until the fight is finish
This aged perfectly.
thank you, finally some good questions. i want to applaud the work done here. i am tired of ridiculous questions during the ufc press conference
Just commented something similar on another video. It must be SO annoying for fighters to constantly be asked the same questions over & over & over. Every interview is the exact same conversation, just a different host. They should start letting fans submit questions or something…bc it gets ridiculous!
Bro I totally agree. Always asking stupid questions that pander to an audience that loves to hate on Coach Javier and Coach Khabibs Team. It’s interesting to me that when Oliveras team talks about how they will beat Islam in round 1 its considered confidence but when these guys express the same confidence in Islam they are talking a lot of shit!? So tired of these dumb narratives that float around when we should be enjoying the fact that two of the best are about to go to war and we get to witness some closure to the question of is bjj > sambo or sambo > bjj!?
He has a good heart. Some people you can just tell.
I rarely see Javier that confident.
Or this stupid. He just said they didn’t have to prepare much. 🤯 so foolish
He always is dude. lol
Yes hes usually humble
He said the same thing about DC we all know what happened with that
@@stefannasser6839 he said that about khabib. Turn out pretty good
he's the best.. today there is 5 UFC champion from his gym
Congratulations to Coach Javier Mendez, Coach Khabib Nurmagomedov and new UFC Lightweight World Champion Islam Makhachev!!
💯% what happens..he said all the truth,no joke
Javier Mendez so humble. Always give credit to late Abdulmanap.
Father *
What i notice about Islam's hater, they will cry that Islam's camp is arrogant for believing his skill, but when charles believes he could KO Islam in round 1, they will be in awe of him. These fans 🤦🏻♂️
Haters always find excuses🤷♂️
I realy love Javier , it’s amazing that he is the coach for evry body included Habib but still say it clear that Habib is going to be the best coach! This man is the best ever been in this business
He was DAMN RIGHT!!
You got a new champ coach. Great coaching.
inshAllah Islam will win the match
Yes m Pakistani Muslim and I proud to be a great fighters khabib and team.. this sins thy are rock Allah jannat Mai jgga day khabib k dad ko ager pessa hota to zaroor milta khabib say aik dafa
@@shahzaibali6743 go Islam!
Go olivera . The powers of jesus
@@shahzaibali6743 he’s getting knocked out
@@shawnr590 dagestanis taking over ufc. And they only have a population of 2 million while USA has population over 300 million. Lmao how many Americans champs are there, sterling reps Jamaica, hahahaha. Losers.
I’m a big fan of yours.
Love to see you on TED Talk and other big platforms.
Javier you are the best in the business!! All doubters got shut after that shocking striking from Islam
He definitely did. His striking was really good & it's credit to your work too Mendes 👏
I respect so mush this great man
Coach Havier is damn confident
I've never known Javier to bullshit about any of his fighters. He says it as he sees it and tonight he was proven right, again!
Javier On Point
Nice coach, very humble 👍👍
Genius coach...
Elevates everybody around him...
The best coaches were always named Javier
I know charles is really a respectful and humble human. He deserves to be a champion but man I want Islam to win just for the sake of his late coach and the dream he had for Islam, and for the sake of khabib’s effort to make that dream come true.
I shed a tear after Islam won and he talked about his coach and Khabib and their faith in him through all these years.
@@redlizerad8268 Bro, i Literally cried tears of joy when khabib picked him up.
Great interview. Win for Islam and the entire team
I love that you are humble and you are a very good trainer
" Hes that good " indeed 🙌🙌
Greatest coach of decade
Coach Javier, 100% accurate, no need to brag nor shout. Respect coach 👏
Coach Javier, Whitman and Firas Zahabi are the leading MMA coaches. Head and shoulders above the rest
Honestly coach Javier diserve the Golden belt and hall fame medaille, more then 10 years head coach of this guy's Cain Velasquez, DC, Lucke Rockhold, Khabib Nurmagomedov, Islam Makhachev all this champions AKA, So give coach Javier golden medaille he made the level of UFC famous. Comon be fair with coach Javier and give him golden medaille
Javier always talks facts.
... And he did just as the description said. AND NEW!!!
Coach Javier n Khabib always tell the truth.....
Best coach ever!!! Train the best fighter in the world
Charles O and I Makhachev, both are champion human beings in my eyes. Allah bless them both
Javier Coach is the Goat
Good questions!
We will see today!!
Best coach
Wow this will be the best fight of the year
And yes, coach Xavier was absolutely right. Islam won in an extraordinary fashion
Best coach ever.
Islam is going to bring the belt home with him! 🙌
Islam said no one can beat khabib in the octagon , not even me !!
He beat him in the training room tho
@@PoopythePlumber he don't, he only won round against khabib
Tqsvvm Coach Javi....
All fact. 🐐 Coach.
This aged REALLY well !
Humble humble man and a coach. It would be pleasure to meet him in person 🙏🏻
5 ufc champions under this man:
Cain
Dc
Rockhold
Khabib
Islam
ken shamrock?,
@@dnotorious7582
Shamrock should be on the top of the list.
so accurate with prediction
So what if he gets a money fight ???? I hope all the goodness and blessing from the Almighty for these guys. And big respect and much love to coach Xavier👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👍🏼👍🏼💪🏽
The best coach
I knew Islam will win, but wow im so surprised on how dominant he was. I hope Islam hater wont call Charles another tomato can.
last time he got hit he got KO'd. Clearly learnt his lesson :) But nobody is unbeatable.
khabib is
Charles knows all about losses more than anyone.
Islam horse has a name.. its name Charles Oliveira.. super easy win for Islam
@NMC Daydream lmao the words of a casual fan🤡
@@uh3331 against cans
Islam Makhachev, CHAMPION!🏆
Javier calling Abdulmanap father is so great
Coach was right..
This man is training warriors
Yall don't forget these fights is early!
Coach is right!
Fuck I didn’t imagine Islam to be this good .. I mean I’ve watched all his fights I knew he was damn good but holy shit his defense is so good now
When Javier speaks, I believe him.
Khabib - Mendes have a brilliant concept. We measured the distance between makhachev-oliveira only 2 rounds and olievera KO
They spent 7 figures to this training camp and here Javier is saying we don’t really need to do much in terms of preparation.
Yea they underexaggerate a lot of what they do to make themselves seem more amazing
They have a big team around 30 people, they have been in adu dhabi for more than a month, just the room rental alone for that many people would be off the charts, renting the academy for training for over a month is not cheap, especially in Dubai..
@@landoncube769 coz they are amazing....u allrite, dude?
I love how they didn’t even bring in someone with jiu jitsu skills, that’s just how much confidence they had in Islam’s grappling, and they were clearly right.
Is gonna humble them was a better prediction. That was a total domination on stand up and on the ground.
Team Dagestan… those guys are different.
End of
Man this fight elevates anxiety of fans. I am rooting for Islam but I was watching Charles vs Lee he was relentless tangling Lee's legs and arms up.
Only coach with 5 (DC double champ) soon to be 6+ UFC championship.
Aged extremely well. Only time I remember Islam getting hit was from the up-kick. Well done coach.
Coach can you tell us about your fighters padded records. For example why did khabib fight someone who was 0-0 when he was 14-0. What is a tomato can?
He still beat your Mom's lover, Mcpussy
Your father is a tomato can.
Because nobody wants to fight khabib. People always pull out until he become champions
So how padded is Islam's record?? I going to have to agree with you because that win over Oliveira was so easy it's like padding. Islam made it look as easy as his other 10 wins, maybe easier. So why is the UFC padding the top 5??
@@TheDomLouis pretty padded Charles fought the top 4 consecutively in short time . How about I work 10 hours and you work 100 hours and then see who is more tired . If islam fought the top 4 and then travelled to brazil he would most likely lose. All of this has to be in a short time like Charles did. Even if islam beat all 4 which he might. The damage and fatigue would add up.
He had been saying it, but casuals thought he was delusional and underestimated Oliveira. No, people. This is a real MMA Coach who understands his students' skills so well, so he said it best. Islam silenced Oliveira's camp and the world who doubted him before.
yeah Javier have been saying that Islam is a very unique specimen. People haven't noticed because he wasn't truly tested because his fights haven't been close. But man, if he unleashes everything he got, he's like a super beast
@@whatchasayin9363 I agree
he absolutely did
Tatars for Islam Makhachev!🔥
He is right
His confidence on islam is different, you can feel Islam is the best fighter he ever had
Javier 🦁
good questions you've asked here...
👍👍
