Bo had a competitive striking battle with one of the worst strikers in the division because he was terrified of his Ju Jitsu. Kevin Holland would embarrass Bo. If I was Bo, I'd push for someone with zero submission threat so I can keep my hype train going. MVP, you're up! lol
@gfaulk in khabib's village of only 2000 people they had 7 gold medalist in Olympic freestyle wrestling......

To make it simple, there is 10 in every corner of the country and khamzat trains with them every day.

Yeah even in a straight up wresling match khamzat rips him apart, people act like bo is a Olympic level wresler when in reality he was never even close to that. On the other hand there is documentary showing khamzat wrestling with Olympic champions from Dagestan and chechnya every day, plus his coach is the considered by most as the greatest wrestling coach in Russian history.... Bo's training partners and coaches are nowhere near that level, not even 2% of that level
Also mma wresling is different, that's why even gold olympic medalist like cejudo can get out wrestled by mma fighters. Robert easily stuffed many takedown from Yoel romero but khamzat still run through Robert and crushed him. Yoel level of wresling makes bo look like a joke. Don't forget even brundage took down bo lol,
You do realize the last guy Bo fought was the worst possible match up for him stylistically? Paul Craig tapped Jamil hill and ankelaev, two of the best at 205 lbs. Bo beat him easily. I wouldn’t take anything negative away from that fight for Bo. He beat a top guy at the weight class 20 lbs heavier without wrestling at all. You will all see…. Bo is legit.
@Guitarial_arts hmmm 🤔 I'm not so sure I agree man. yeah rhe dude can wrestle. But his stand up is piss poor. He did beat Paul Craig on the feet. But Paul Craig isn't known for his striking and to be honest. He looked to me like he wasn't pulling the trigger. As though Craig was scared of the takedown. And Bo was scared to death of taking Craig down because of the submission threat. Which is why the fight was lacklustre. Bo's striking basic as fuck. Sub par really. He's nowhere near being a complete fighter. Khamzat is a far better striker that Paul Craig. So, if bo does keep it on the feet, like he did with Craig, khamzat will piece him up because he's far superior in that area. Bo can wrestle, cool! Now he needs the other elements of mma to equal that wrestling. Especially to go up against someone like Khamzat. Let's not forget that on the run up to the Craig fight Bo was saying about superior wrestling and how he was gunna work Paul on the ground.... didn't do any of it in the fight
Ya a 2 time ncaa champion from the best wrestling school in the nation. Ya he's a bum for sure. Maybe look in the mirror dude and the man u see is the bum! He would destroy u
Why is Bo Nickal so upset at DC. DC is literally looking out for you and you act like you are championship material when in reality he is not. He needs to stop listening to whoever is putting all this delusion in his ear.
Bo Nickal's wrestling is so overrated. The Russian style of grappling is different than American wrestling. There's trips, throws, etc. that Khamzat could get Bo with. We've seen these Russian guys take these top college wrestlers down time and time again in mma.
@@awi9053 yeah Americans do trips and throws as well. It’s called wrestling it’s not exclusive to a specific country. And no Russian guys don’t take Americans down time and time again, in fact Americans win gold medals when they are still in college, look at Snyder look at Steveson
@@sw8053 yes but I'm talking more about college folkstyle wresting compared to the type of grappling they do in Russia which they incorporate a lot of judo etc. too. Even Henry Cejudo who was a Olympic gold medalist said he went to Dagestan and didn't win one match against any of the guys there.
Idk a lot of people rate hum fairly especially after the last 2 fights. Just look at the comments lol. Real MMA fans know he has a lot of work to be top level MW.
@@Yeshuaspupilteam mma fans think he’s overrated, can’t tell how his projection will be in the future why care let Bo worry about that. As of now he’s overrated.
Bro Bo is NOT ready! No one is ready for Khamzat! We all saw what he did to Usman and Whittaker within seconds of the first round, take their back and ragdoll city!! The only man that can beat Khamzat is himself and maybe Jon. Thats it. No one else.
Khamzat is my favourite fighter, along with Jon, but do you really think Khamzat could beat top 10 heavyweights? I know he could beat some but the size differential seems kinda insane. Especially looking at how much effort Jones himself needed to put that weight on. I could see Khamzat fighting comfortably at 210ish but he'd be so small for a heavyweight. I can easily imagine Khamzat flourishing at LHW though. He doesnt even look filled out at middleweight. He doesnt look as ghoulish as he did at welterweight but he still looks a bit thinner than Im sure he'd like to be.
There is recent videos of khamzat literally out wrestling Olympic gold medalist from chechnya......Bo isn't on that level my guy even in a straight up wresling match khamzat would still rips him apart. Khamzat wreslers every day with Olympic champion level wreslers from hus region..... Every day...... Thats why even in straight up wresling he is better than the ginger from the us.

The Gold Medalist is from a much smaller weight class than Chimaev. A 74kg wrestler is Islam Makhachev size. Any Medalist of Chimaev's size would destroy Chimaev in wrestling. For example if he wrestles Sadulaev (86 kg version), he is getting ragdolled.
Khamzat doesn't train only with razambek the 2024 gold winner, he also trains with tons of wreslers on the level of Olympic and world champions. And razambek is a lil smaller yes, he cuts weight and wresle at 74 kilos, khamzat is originally a 77k guy, so the difference of weight is considerable but not a massive difference.... And khamzat was actually winning the exchanges. And yes against sadulaev he wouldn't win, but most likely do very good still considering all his incredible physical gifts. But for Bo he already gets out wrestled by American state champions lol soo he is fare away from that level.... Every guy who razambek beat in the Olympics for 74 kilos would destroy bo,
If Khamzat is good enough to beat Bo in pure wrestling he’s in the wrong sport because he’s gonna be placing at world championships yearly if that’s the case
Khamzat’s record Gilbert Burns ( bjj world champion) Kamaru Usman ( former welterweight champion) and has the second longest winning streak in ufc history. Robert Whittaker ( former middleweight champion) Bo has a long way to catch up with Khamzat.
@@adam.axford yeah barely when it was scored by all three judges 30-28 by unanimous decision. You clearly don’t know anything about fighting but that’s not barely that’s unanimously decisive
@@sw8053 the fight was close. The strike difference is just 7, there were no takedowns or knockdowns, and Bo was a huge favourite. He barely scraped the win. Khamzat also barely scraped a win against Usman, but with that being said Usman is on a higher tier than Craig. I’m very open to a mature discussion on a topic of which (I assume) we are both big fans. Really no need to insult my intelligence, but also, I don’t care either way what you think✌🏽
I'd like to see Bo Nickal vs Ikram Aliskerov first, it seems like the more appropriate fight to make right now, both very good wrestlers, both aren't quite ready for the top 5 yet but have potential, I think that would make an interesting fight.
Bo Nickal he is crazy he just american wrestler not even participate olympics wrestling 😅 he thinking that America is the only country in the whole world... It's just like Americans thinking American football is better than rugby, while rugby is played all over the world.....😅 so funny
Americans do think that there the only country tho there country is made up from about 12 other countries people imigrating 😂😂😂 they think 150yr history is a long 😂😂😂 I have a church in my town older than that 😂😂😂 even the town I live in is older than that country 😂😂😂
One question (I think it was Lucas Tracy) on the topic that really stuck with me was: Would Khamzat hesitate to take down Paul Craig, would Islam hesitate to take down Oliveira (because of the submission threat)?
khamzat stopped shooting against burns after the first round as he realized burns had the advantage on the ground....usman also didn't try to take burns to the ground as well....not respecting an opponents skill set is a recipe for disaster....
Khamzat walks through current Bo, Bo needs a couple of years at least to handle someone like Khamzat, if you aren't willing to takedown Paul Craig you definitely aren't taking Khamzat down
To be fair craig is pretty good on the ground this is the same guy that subbed ankalaev and gave hin his only loss. Ankalaev was thinking there was nothing craig could do to him on the ground.
What an earth are you talking about? Craig has many significant wins from his back, including 3 of the current top 8 at LHW. Why play that game when you know his striking is rudimentary? Bo would 100% be looking to take Chimaev down. Whether he could is a different story.
Bo was scared to take Craig to the ground. Imagine running away from your strength due to being scared. Some fighters will try to prove a point when they strike only vs a striker or vise versa but to be scared and go to striking only knowing Paul’s striking is ass is only an excuse of being scared and nothing else
@@joemirz Khamzat is way more of a submission threat than Paul Craig (currently) plus he can strike, I think this fight would end up on the feet and Khamzat is much better there
What a dumb take … Paul is good only off his back bjj style but khamzat can submit you everywhere.. if he’s not taking Paul down he’s not even thinking against khamzat
Khamzat is the biggest star at 185 and bo is cloud chasing he is talking about him to promote himself to attach his name to the biggest star, like rousey was doing when she was claiming she could beat all the biggest name in male boxing 😂. Bo stopped talking about khamzat when khamzat wasn't fighting and kept getting sick..... Now that khamzat's came back and crushed Robert his name is more hot than ever!!! Bo is coming out the wood work to attach himself to a massive star like a big raaahh,t would do
Bo needs to stop it. He has not been truly tested and has not fault any top 5 or top 10 or even top 15 fighters yet. Chimaev is next in line for a title shot, why waste time fighting bo, and don't get me started on that last bo performance. It sucked.
DC it would be a great concept to do a round table interview with yourself, Khabib, Islam, and Umar during fight week and give the fans an insight into the growth and development from the time you have worked with them in the U.S.
If there is one person who can compare wrestling to MMA wrestling, it's DC, period. I really, really like how DC response to Bo. Granit I don't think DC needs to explain himself however I'm glad he did.
I wont even listen to this until khamzat gets a title shot. Hes been screwed around since covid. usman / khamzat were promised a title shot (winner) by dana
Key words Nickal used to start the sentence “I don’t think” is already a hesitant statement. All the top Russians get asked a question along the line of “can you beat this guy” and their answer is always “bratha I smesh dis guy” meaning there’s no way I lose which is definitive. Bo isn’t certain of himself
Dude don't take money from the bookies and other gambling sites. Ask the women and children of the men that are hooked on that stuff what it does to their lives and what they need to deal with.
Bo is doing a good job of engagement farming. Just trying to keep himself relevant after a boring fight with Paul Craig. He's saying stuff that he knows will get attention. All he has said is that he would beat chimaev in a wrestling match. BUT, if bo was actually confident he would've ask for the fight on the Saudi Arabia card. We all know he doesn't actually think he could beat chimaev in an mma fight or he would be asking for it now.
Just stop any more convo abt Khamzat and anythint else than a title fight. Lets be real. The kid is long overdue. Bo will have his time. On that note, put Bo again Cai B from the fighting nerds. Youre welcome.
"what happened?". Maybe because of his last fight a lot of people weren't impressed and called him overrated, also maybe DC saying he isn't ready for Khamzat... Maybe he doesn't like it that people are underestimating him.
Khamzat should be fighting for a belt not playing with bo
Sooooo true. If Bo believes he's that good then he will see Khamzat eventuality.
Probably he's gonna fight the winner du plessis-strickland
And then bo is gonna say "i need 5 more years to be ready for khamzat" he's a clown
You're a clown if you really think that. I'd put money down that Bo fights him immediately if UFC gave it to him.

Khamzat destroys this guy
lol Kamzat rips Bo a new one. I don’t think that fight would last 90 seconds. Bo is just another uncle Dana creation, Covington part 2.
Although I think khamzat is too much right now Covington’s pedigree and Nickal’s pedigree don’t compare lol.
It definitely lasts longer than 90 seconds but Bo has no real chance of winning. It is just a matter of time before Khamzat submits him or TKO

To be fair craig is pretty good on the ground this is the same guy that subbed ankalaev and gave hin his only loss. Ankalaev was thinking there was nothing craig could do to him on the ground.
What an earth are you talking about? Craig has many significant wins from his back, including 3 of the current top 8 at LHW. Why play that game when you know his striking is rudimentary?
Bo would 100% be looking to take Chimaev down. Whether he could is a different story.
Bo was scared to take Craig to the ground. Imagine running away from your strength due to being scared. Some fighters will try to prove a point when they strike only vs a striker or vise versa but to be scared and go to striking only knowing Paul’s striking is ass is only an excuse of being scared and nothing else
@@joemirz Khamzat is way more of a submission threat than Paul Craig (currently) plus he can strike, I think this fight would end up on the feet and Khamzat is much better there
What a dumb take … Paul is good only off his back bjj style but khamzat can submit you everywhere.. if he’s not taking Paul down he’s not even thinking against khamzat
11:50 "only gets harder" Khamzat is the top how wud it get harder?
Khamzat is the biggest star at 185 and bo is cloud chasing he is talking about him to promote himself to attach his name to the biggest star, like rousey was doing when she was claiming she could beat all the biggest name in male boxing 😂.
Bo stopped talking about khamzat when khamzat wasn't fighting and kept getting sick..... Now that khamzat's came back and crushed Robert his name is more hot than ever!!! Bo is coming out the wood work to attach himself to a massive star like a big raaahh,t would do
Yeah what am trying to say is bo is acting like a women
I worry that it's because he has a chip on his shoulder about the crowd chanting "overrated" after the Craig fight
Amazing analysis. Love listening to DC. Always a learning experience hearing him speak. A true champ and expert.
Bo Nickal has not made a dime so far
Wtf? 😂 That hype train didn't even wrestle in his last fight. And he almost lost. He can't fk with Khamzat.
When you fought Jones and Gus you were 6-7 yrs removed from being a wrestler and 34 yrs old.
Bo still wrestles everyday and he is 26
What is Bo plan? He literally said he can’t hold Khamzat down. So he’s just go single leg him to a decision?
Yes because khamzat has no cardio
DC dropping some humble wisdom.. Age and maturity of a seasoned champ 👍🏻
Let me guess after khamzat beats bo his next fight is Bryce Mitchell
pls do more interview with makhachev
Was gona comment but looks like everyone said it all!!
Honestly I don’t think it’s likely Bo makes it out of the first round with Khamzat.
Bo is biting off more than he can chew.
anyone knows what the name of the background music in the intro? im dying to find it
No, he is not ready he has to fight 4 or 5 times more than you can bring his name alongside khamzat.
The UFC has money tied up in this kid and they probably on his ass for results
Just challenge Khamzat in wrestling like Arman did. Didn't work out too good for Arman tho.
Dc content is so fire
The way Khamzat beat Whitaker then whitaker openly saying how do you stop that. The title of this video is nothing but click bait
Would like to see a wrestling grappling match between the two,otherwise, Bo would lose. Bo needs more time...
Bo needs to stop it. He has not been truly tested and has not fault any top 5 or top 10 or even top 15 fighters yet. Chimaev is next in line for a title shot, why waste time fighting bo, and don't get me started on that last bo performance. It sucked.
Toe nickel is not even a topic of discussion.... He should fight at prelims
Don't mess with the Big B wolf after his doctorate degree 😇
DC it would be a great concept to do a round table interview with yourself, Khabib, Islam, and Umar during fight week and give the fans an insight into the growth and development from the time you have worked with them in the U.S.
Is it just me - What has happend with the video quality ?
Those digital zoom effects (dont know tech terms) are not as sharp as DC Media deserves.
If there is one person who can compare wrestling to MMA wrestling, it's DC, period. I really, really like how DC response to Bo. Granit I don't think DC needs to explain himself however I'm glad he did.
I wont even listen to this until khamzat gets a title shot. Hes been screwed around since covid. usman / khamzat were promised a title shot (winner) by dana
I know a guy who knows a guy who can out-rassle Nickle in a MMA match, though.
Have Bo fight Usman which did good against khamzat, good way to expose Bo and stop that ridiculous claim that he beats khamzat
Key words Nickal used to start the sentence “I don’t think” is already a hesitant statement.
All the top Russians get asked a question along the line of “can you beat this guy” and their answer is always “bratha I smesh dis guy” meaning there’s no way I lose which is definitive.
Bo isn’t certain of himself
I just rewatched a old episode of Bully Beatdown u were in
This fight is my most anticipated
This guy is overrated.
Easy win for Khamzat.
Bobbing for Bo should be the title of this video 😂
Bo will never become a ufc chsmpion mark my words
So he saying Yoel Romero can't beat him in Wrestling?
DC is a real OG
Overrated. Give Bo a break. He is adjusting to fans don't like him.
Damn dc has his own channel?
Bo has a lot of talent, but Chimaev is a different beast. “Be careful what you ask for” may be played out in an octagon soon.
Dude don't take money from the bookies and other gambling sites. Ask the women and children of the men that are hooked on that stuff what it does to their lives and what they need to deal with.
Bo is doing a good job of engagement farming. Just trying to keep himself relevant after a boring fight with Paul Craig. He's saying stuff that he knows will get attention. All he has said is that he would beat chimaev in a wrestling match.
BUT, if bo was actually confident he would've ask for the fight on the Saudi Arabia card. We all know he doesn't actually think he could beat chimaev in an mma fight or he would be asking for it now.
The crowd yelling “OVERRATED OVERRATED OVERRATED” was crazy
Just stop any more convo abt Khamzat and anythint else than a title fight. Lets be real. The kid is long overdue. Bo will have his time. On that note, put Bo again Cai B from the fighting nerds. Youre welcome.
They should set up a exhibition grappling match tbh
"what happened?". Maybe because of his last fight a lot of people weren't impressed and called him overrated, also maybe DC saying he isn't ready for Khamzat... Maybe he doesn't like it that people are underestimating him.
Bo will never get to even fight Khamzat, he might never even become ranked.
Could you please do a collab with paddy the baddy or go on his podcast.
Whittaker was ready for Khamzat ……and what was the result????
Bo should fight ikram first. Ikram have better wrestling than khamzat. Bo is ducking Ikram 💯
