@@redoxideeternal23 Idk about smash, but he'll def give volk and max a run for their money. Remember that the greatest attribute these two have are their pace.
@@alexb2873 and his biggest weakness is his cardio . Zabit is THE MOST technical fighter at 145 and possibly in the whole UFC but he needs to work on conditioning A LOT .

Reminds me of conor somewhat , it's most likely genetics , fast twitch muscle fibers ..
@@jerdna4718 He has a rare disease where he gets diaphragm spasms. This affects his breathing immensely in the later rounds when his muscles require more oxygen to continue to produce at the speed that brings him success.
He might never come back. He had surgery because he had a disease. And the surgery itself can be a career ender. So... pray that we will see him fight again
@@ngolobelgrade8806 He suffered with diaphragm spasms cause of which he was exhausted quickly in fights. He was treated with surgery I think last year but i don't know if it was helpful in solving his gassing out issue or other problems.
he said he wouldn’t fight anybody from Dagestan. thats not character. That’s respect for your country an people. He respects people he doesn’t even know. like every Dagestani is a good person. there must be one you’d like to kill. come on. Its like me having respect for everyone in England.

@@cahassassin2222 English society has had more war than any country in the entire world. Remember that. And over history. England invaded 90 percent of the worlds countries. You can’t talk like its soft place to be. people here fight anyone, people there don’t even fight each other. How do you even become a mma fighter in dagestan with a mentality like that ?
@@dmagz0121 I know England's history very well my friend, I am from Germany, and it's fair to say English and German society have went through the same development after WWII.

You cant compare what our countries are TODAY to what Dagestan or Chechnya look like today
This guy was my favorite MMA fighter along with Jon Jones before I got to know Hamzat. We'll see what the future holds for each of them. I'd still like to see Zabit in the top, he's so laid back and chill... And his style looks like water. I'm an absolute fan
He wont ever be a champion now or even a real contender. Amazing talent but the sport evolves rapidly, you cant just be not fighting for like 4 years and come back at the same level especially with his questionable gas tank.
@@kidusgebretensay7228 Indeed man... I mean, this is a sport in which either you sacrifice everything to be the best or you're just not going to get to the top, which is fine, of course. He said in this interview 4 years ago that he doesn't particularly dream to become a UFC champion, so he doesn't deserve it either. I hope the guy is doing great and has some time to play around in the gym hahah
Zabit Muhammedsharif has an amazing skillset. He's an honest man, due to his height and reach he's much more of a kick-boxer, Tae Kwondo, Wushu and aother asian martial artist than a mere wrestler. The best wrestlers has a body like Khabib, wide shoulders, heavy stance, strong hips. Like a tank.
@@pathan6038 The higher the dude is, the easier it will be to pull and drop him, as his point of gravity will be higher above the floor compared to the shorter guy. So the one with advantage is the heavier and slightly shorter guy in the stand up and take downs. But on the ground things can change, longer arms and reach will make things easier to go for locks and submission, than shorter reach. But it doesn't give as huge advantage in the submission, just some. As the shorter guy can move quicker and pull things out easier too. Best height for wrestling is around 5'8 to 5'10 i believe. So average height.
NOt sure if its possible, seems like his condition allows him to fight 3 rounds only. He already became a doctor so, he has a bright future no matter what he does.
This is becoming my favorite MMA channel.I like all the dagestani fighters and Hamza. This channel is providing me with so much content. Great work man.

Do you know that he was studying at martial arts school? not a regular school, they have a very strict discipline. I might release a video about it. Amazing
Guys is super technical. But we will see about his heart in 5 rounds. He always looks to slow down by the end of 2nd round. But then again, in 5 rounds, he should manage stamina better. Needs to be seen.

if him and khabib fought it would be a war.

and khabib would have a hard time taking Zabit down so would
be interesting fight.
