Islam is actually low key funny at times lmao "He lose on purpose" 😂
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 ✨
He said 'he fight like he come from street'🤣🤣
Chandler losing in purpose had me dying
Ofcourse if he wins he move up the rankings and won’t 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 🐐. Pound for Pound no 1.
A lot of people don’t know how hilarious Makhachev is
@@tltarzan678 wrong comment subsection buddy
Pure champ no show off .. waiting for his next opponent. He admires me. I love how humble he is honestly

That’s terrible English coming from someone in the USA. Go back home.
He is a cheat.

What's Chandler going to do? Lecture Islam about bullying with a 10 minute speech...
Really 😂 😂 😂
Is it really trolling if it's the truth?🤷🏾♂️
@@blueflame3531 💀😂👏
Islam is NOT wrong about Chandler! 😅
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
Islam naturally funny🤣🤣🤣🤣
It doesn’t 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 months…RESPECT!!

This man is gonna be killing interviews soon. If he does focus on striking I could see him becoming a huge fan favorite
tbh his striking is already pretty good
@@verynice973 I mean if he focuses on winning fights through his striking, he's very well rounded
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 fans…
Just don't get it why people hate him...its blow my mind..islam humble funny n genuine kind.
They hate him because he destroys their idols 🤣🤣
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 🙏 🫡

VOLK NEVER KNOCKED ISLAM DOWN ISLAM WAS SHOOTING FOR TAKEDOWN, ISLAM IS P4P NUMBER 1
@straw Islams weak af
@bLaCk and Islam bodied Charles. Just speaks volumes itself.
Let me know ! Lightweight king
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
“All time”? He hasn’t been around long enough. Let him stick around more than his mate did. He wanted P2P which he doesn’t 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 🤷♂️
Alex whooped him
A genuine a human being and a true Champ🙏
Lol BS
XD
Islam’s smirk while he say’s “he lose on purpose” makes it that much more funnier 🤣
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 .

Yes.. He is the LW king.. And still!!!
It takes more than one defence from someone in a lighter division to be king lol
Know your UFC history
She is a great interviewer! Great stuff.
The most active champion
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
@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.
He’s in very good mood today lol..
and much more fluent
He's not fighting so it's understandable.. he's just enjoying himself. And as he says always learning
No weightcut does wonders
Yes he even looked at her smiling .❤
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 world😂😂😂

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
Always smiling... The real fighter 🌟🙂👍 Makachev
Regards from Mumbai India 🙂
Awesome interview too 👍🌟
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
@@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 🥲
Islam is so humble and active. Goat
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*💪
We see islam we click 👍
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 couldn’t do anything to a guy from a smaller weight class and got a controversial decision. P4P dont lie
Bro he has a big chance as a comedian for real and he shy about his English level
He's not shy about English he just learning

Nice to see Islam at the UFC events!
love that the champ took the time to get his english on point

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!

Rat got lucky win against volk
🐖
His english is very good compared to 5 years back.
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.
@@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..
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.
she's so good at interviewing its insane
The subtitles are gold. Aloe vera🤣🤣🤣
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.
@@e.a.poecrnimacak354 he is better striker than dariush

I can see that Islam seems more happy since becoming champ, and definitely showing more humour in his interviews.
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
Islam looked very relaxed and enjoying 😍 the conversion with Caroline Pearce - lovely interview
Well I hope he can use his brain more during fight regardless if it’s striking wrestling or grappling 😅 didn’t 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.
Keep crying volk fans😂😂😂
Why would volk fans cry? Islams about to be pushed down to #3 P4P, and if kamaru wins islam will get bumped to #4 and if izzy wins islam will get bullied down to #5.

Did she really just bust out the "Red Panty Night" line on Islam, the devout Muslim? 🤣
Yeah me too I was shocked when she said that .
What that mean?
Yes what does red panty night means as i think it was said by conor
@@deepakdubey1130 Yes, it was originally said by Conor in the press conference when he was going to fight RDA.
Finny 😂
love the interview cant wait to see him fight again!
He is now underestimated because of how well Volk did. Volk did good enough to maintain p4p, but Islam will smash anyone in lightweight except possibly Benny. If Dustin or Justin get another title shot Islam will beat them easily. If Conor gets an undeserved title shot having not won a lightweight fight since 2016 Islam will absolutely maul him. After he beats these guys easily he and Volk will get the credit they deserve. If Benny can’t beat him he will keep the belt for a decade. I really want to see him fight at welterweight. Kamaru, Colby, and Khamzat would be a real competitive challenge for him. I look forward to his future.
See
Him
Only Anderson Silva and Jon Jones could keep their blets for a decade.
The lightweight division is so stacked, it's difficult to see someone be that dominant in the next few years.
Dariush; the rematch with Oliveira; Fiziev; Gamrot; the rematch with Tsarukyan.
If Makhachev beats Dariush & Gamrot then gets 2-0 against Olives & Arman, he can retire in peace, cause no one will reach his level of dominance in the LW division.
@@shadowzeenko3653 exactly 💯 the real bmf🤴👏💪🏼
The one problem with Islam is that he is focused on entertaining fans and proving that he can strike instead of going easier way with his grappling. He can't do that against guys like Dariush or Arman if he fights them.
Here is baby legend
P4P 👑
That tells how good chandler is..
He has everything.. Every single skill and he's almost complete but he doesn't really know how to fight cleverly with IQ he's only explode gas out and lose but he was making a hell of a fights.
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
4:05 lmao - love Islam
Makha a mountain Goat, being watched over by an eagle. The war with volko is one of my favorites ever. Islam works Dariush after rnd 3, volko pieces up Yair, and they should do five more rounds
I can’t understand why some people hate this guy…
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.
Doesn’t matter about P4P now, Jones has to be 1 now.
but he at least deserved that P4P rancking behind his name until Jones won though
This is true. But only statistically does it matter. Be real here. HW is not a deep division. These guys win solely on size and power. And this is not diminishing what Jones did, but Gane is not a p4p contender or that good grappling.
If we go on strength for size snd skill, it's guys like Islam and Volk.
@@adamburling9551 if it doesn't matter about P4P.....
Then the fight in Australia was in vain for Islam?
No jusitce as Islam also said!!!
Why? Jones himself said Cyril was the most incomplete fighter he's come across.
Islam, 2kg lighter than his normal fighting against THE (former) p4p#1. Big difference there buddy.
Look at Jones with his height and reach, finally moving up to heavyweight - his natural weight class - when no wrestlers are in sight to properly challenge him. Walking through a very incompetent opponent doesn't prove much.
@@youssefkhaled9666 I agree with the incomplete thing but he still won. He’s a double weight champion and not just that LHW to HW. Has to go right to the top.
Islam is so nice and cool guy man....
