Khabib and gsp are the living proofs that you don't have to make a clown of yourself to be a goat and a superstar
Totally agree
Yes⚡
@@raghav4690 Khabib was already the champ when he fought Conor, but ok nothing wrong about being a
casual
Mcnugget is gay but kabitch got famous for being provoked by an internet troll. Congratulations
you hit the nail right on the head .... brovo ... i was never a huge khabib fan, he just gave me the wrong impression... but listening to this and some other interviews ... i have gained new respect for this guy ...
GSP and Khabib the only true kings of UFC. Respect
Silva
Khabib would slaughter him
Lucius umm not really
*jon jones, silva , gsp, and khabib are the only kings of UFC
They Are two humble champion and role modelz
GSP on fighting khabib in 155: No way!
Khabib on fighting GSP in 170: No way!
Respect to both.
Gsp is saying that bc he physically can't make 155. He's too big.
@@frosty2.010 he would turn into a complete twig lol
first off it will be a tough fight to call at 155 ... but you have to remember once they both make weight GSP has the advantage cuz his weight will go back up to his natural weight (what ever that is) but i know it's more than 160 ... they are both amazing fighters and both very humble and speak the truth ... no bullshit
@@user-of5xb8bp6m yup you’re right … hard to predict… but we’ll never know …
Its not like that, cutting weight is unnatural... Even khabib struggled.... He wanted to be in his natural state
GOAT recognize GOAT.
@RAMZAN KADYROV am coming to chechnya
@RAMZAN KADYROV GOATs recognize GOATs then
There can only be one „Greatest of all time“
@@nirash8018 ok whats about muhhamad ali huh? If you think GSP is great what about the real legend/goat/father of all sports
@@Silver_Z he is the greatest boxer of all time not a MMA. Fabulous GSP is Goat in MMA
Khabib: gsp at 170? Nah I’m good 😂 love both of these guys!
He is clever enough to know that he can't beat GSP at that weight
@@roobindebbarma2957 agreed, he is the king at that weight, but at the same time I highly doubt GSP can compete with Khabib at LW
@@hanson2331 Especially since Gsp would have to cut a leg off to get to 155 and it would be pretty hard to beat Khabib while missing a leg
@@alexmcdonald649 LMAO. I mean GSP had a lot of issues even moving up a weight class, including colitis. I can't imagine what he'd have to go through cutting weight.
@@roobindebbarma2957 He's a LW. GSP is a WW. More chance of GSP winning at 170. Also, maybe he said it cz he won the LW belt and wanted to defend that against GSP
He said “gsp at 170, oh no”
Alan Rodrigue khabib knows hes good but he aint stupid 😂😂😂. He knows whats up
I think he even knows Georges at 155 will be tough. I think GSP beats him if he can make the weight and be healthy
@@VeritasAtlatic respectfully disagree khabib is 28-0
GSP is 28-2
I think it will go like this the fight will go for 5 rounds and winner will be unanimously
I think khabib or GSP could win bought
Kha líl nice that despite disagreeing you keep it respectful
@@darrendapborwahlang484 m sure it's 28-2 look it up
Imagine the trash talking at that conference... The media would have to do it all!
I don’t think there would be any, they have so much respect for eachother, they seem like friends
@@imjusttoogoodlmao8281 That's what he said understand sarcasm mate.
They will try to outpolite each other.
lol it would go on maybe like this :
khabib : gsp i'm not sure if i will win. you are the best. you are my idol.
gsp (in thick french quebecois) : you are completely wrong and i respect you so much but you are the best and...
khabib : no you are the best you...
gsp : no khabib my friend you are the best.
khabib : ok maybe i'm the best but you are the GOAT
gsp : hahaha you are the goat i lost two fight...
and so on... they would probably be the only two people left in the conference room still congratulating each other XD
@@IstanaAnginWorldwide lmao😂
Just listen to the man talk. So humble. The way he just puts GSP over as the greatest, even if you don't agree with Khabib's opinion you just know that the man is so humble. A class act. Yeah I know, I know he did let his emotions get the better of him after the Mccoke fight, but he's human after all.
man you are a nice human being .
Mccoke....lol
Mccoke has a big mouth yes
This humble called (islam) 🙂 search about 👍
And now GSP did the same for him.
Khabib class act
GSP proved him self and Khabib proved him self , Both of these men are Legends in their own time and both of them did it with Humility, a true strength among men.
Well said. “In their own time” if you ask me GSP fought legends in the fight game and dominated them.
He didn't only compliment him, but recognized that GSP had done everything. That's exactly what khabib did when he retired. GSP is the goat and khabib is 2nd.
And McGregor is the Ultimate goat.
My 2 favorites
One word describe khabib "RESPECT"
It takes a legend to know a legend. Two fighters that are in my book the greatest MMA fighters of all time.
How do you not love him for this.. so much respect
Easily my 2 favorite fighters in the UFC. Both have shown us that you can become headliners without making an ass out of yourself. They both achieved greatness in their respective weight classes and retired on top. Nothing but respect to both of them.
Mine too, & from the very start of their careers. I feel like the Goat having picked both..
what a humble and self aware champion!! Can't imagine a more respectful answer to a very difficult question. Two great HOF fighters that are two class acts.
Khabib 100 percent keeping it real. Exactly why would or should he come back? Acknowledge it’s a dream fight, acknowledge the respect, and pretty much called the man the goat. Wanting that over conor for his legacy. But at the same time happy to not have it at all. Real recognises real
Exactly, both GSP and Khabib are Top 3 anyways. Respect!🙏🏾
The dreamfight of abdulmanap.
I hope the fight will happen to honour khabibs father
I love how he says GSP has nothing to prove, he's the greatest of all time and GSP says the exact same thing about Khabib
Humble dude
Both these guys are true fighters, they dont need to trash talk other fighters to intimidate their opponents.... they both show their dominance by their skills ,not words..major respect to both of them
Eventhough Khabib show so much respect in this video towards GSP. These brainless haters in the comment always has something nasty to say about Khabib.
I haven't seen any bad comments so far, but if there are, who cares, just haters hating.
Khabib's thoughts on this stuff is always gold. Always.
"170 with George Nah Nah" , Khabib knew it would be a big mistake to fight him at welterweight division he can get hi ass whooped
Absolute class. GSP is also class. Both, proper pros.
Nicely done, Khabib. Respect for you,. You can tell he's being sincere, forthright, and genuine. The kind of guy I'd like to know as a friend and as a neighbor.
For money..its McGregor..
For legacy it's George St. Pierre..thankyou khabib I could not think of a better synopsis on this issue⚡🇨🇦
Te he way he talks about GSP, class act this guy!
Subhanallah khabib is always very very respectful to others.... Subhanallah
GSP v/s Khabib.... That's gonna be Clash of legends.... A grand feast for the fans
this is number one Champion
The two humble legends
THIS WILL HAPPEN NEAR FUTURE. i hope im still alive watching this both warriors. both respectful and very humble
You can't call someone out for a fight and expect them to come down to fight you. You go up.
colegate15 he’s the champ
@@BboyZoinks and gsp is the greatest with nothing left to prove.
Hotline 4401 yes I agree but Khabib in his own right can call GSP out for his belt too due to his record and what he’s accomplished. It’s a GOAT being called out by a future GOAT
Ya but I think the whole point in gsp fighting khabib would be to be champion of three weight classes which is why khabib said that
@Mail Fraud don't discredit khabib mate. If he beats gaethje, tony and Charles then he's surely one of the GOAT. Perhaps the most dominant too.
Khabib and gsp respects each other
Khabib is the best man ever.
I love both guys, but GSP is a big dude to get to 155. Dude weighs like 190, maybe more.
Almost 200 pounds.
He'd have to drop 20kg to fight Khabib.
This would be the fight of a lifetime.
Though I don't see it happening.
Yeah, I thought I was being conservative. And yeah, it would be awesome, but GSP would be a raisin.
You're not aware that Khabib walks around at 200?
Neil Haran that's a myth khabib isn't fat off camp... he's at 170-180 at best
Well he's almost there now.
These two legends dont need to prove anything against each other. Khabib should invite him to dagestan and they would have a cup of tea on some mountain and talk about their lives, and that would be perfect.
GSP Khabib would be the best selling UFC of all time
I doubt that, it would certainly be the most anticipated, but it probably wouldn't sell the most. I don't like McGregor, but his name recognition drives non-MMA fant to want to buy the ppv. But non-MMA fans don't know who GSP is and they only know Khabib as the guy who wrecked Conor.
That's what respect sounds like
Respect
GSP is my all time favourite athlete. Khabib and him has a mutual respect for one another. Should they fought, I would buy tickets and fly anywhere to be honest
Both are monsters with the take down and being humble, and when pushed they both will perform. That's what MMA should be and not this cutting up and getting personal.
Amazing by kahbib
Legends recognize legends.
Alhamdulillah. KHABIB TIME
They should meet somewhere between 160-165
I love their attitude. GSP,Khabib, Randy Couture. Great champions and classy guys.
This has to be one of my favorite UFC/MMA videos of All-Time lol
Wish we could've seen that match...
Real recognize real
Thank kha b make sense
Great thing is the respect both fighters have for each other, there humble and seem very down to earth. It would be a great fight at a catch weight but I think unfortunately GSP is a little to old. They are just simply the GOAT’S of there time period.
This humble of khabib called islam 🙂👍❤
He's English makes more sense than any ufc fighter. Well articulated.
Greatest recognized greatest. Gsp praised him and khabib praised gsp. It's nothing just mutual respect for each other. Seems like ali and Tyson.
Both kings
Game recognizes Game
Imagine the ground and pound action!
Dragon of the west and dragon of the east
That’s respect bro. They don’t need to fight and I don’t want them to lol
I love khabib and his outtake on life
I have absolutely No idea how this fight would happen. KN is so good, but GSP is so awesome with timing
Khabib and gsp. 💟💟💟💟💟💟💟💟💟💟💟💟💟💟💟💟💟💟💟💟💟💟💟💟💟💟
after this video im now a khabib fan still love my boy george but khabib is active lol and a fight between GSP vs Khabib would make connors fight money a drop in the bucket
Khabib and GSP are GOAT!! Et tellement superieurs a l’autre Connard …
Lmao he know he will get his ass beat at 170😂😂smart guy not gonna lie
He'll get his ass beat at 155 to don't play. Gsp will tear that ass up
@@RyanEllis216 don't think so. GSP is 39 and never fought in the Lightweight division. Khabib will maul him. Will be a bad move by GSP if he wants to comeback for this fight
@@trentarnold2670 casual here. What difference does ur weight while ur fighting make? The man's stay the same human being lol
@@Hayanomie The lightweight division is filled with the most skilled fighters in the UFC in my opinion. Toughest division in the UFC, and it's not even close.
@@trentarnold2670 Simple at 170 GSP wins at 155 Khabib wins but I do believe if GSP was younger he could beat Khabib at 155
Khabib vs GSP should happen
Brother Khabib blocked half of EA sports UFC 3 Advert like a boss with his Body and Hat on the table. Respect.
He basically said, GSP at 170? I’ll get wrecked! That’s the only undefeated fighter in ufc history saying that! That’s respect
Theres like four fighters undefeated on the roster atm lol....shut up
@@Panda-dw1he but do they have the same record of winning streak and round wins? I guess not.
@@puskarthapa9014 so im right? Thank you
Paul Ashurst and they all called out gsp? Wtf is your point? Lol
@@BboyZoinks my point is he isnt the only undefeated fighter in ufc history....that was pretty clear...wow
Khabib knows GSP would whoop his ass at 170, cause thats Gsp's division and he is king there.
i think that fight would open a blackhole
As good khabib is he wouldn’t have a chance at 170 against GSP
Khabib is stand up as f@ck
Gods children grace the earth, presence of the holy spirit.
This fight will happen no doubt in my mind!! Win or lose, catch weight or what have you. Khabib will want to make his late fathers passing dream fight come true
khabib you forgot your 👑
Dana's mistake to not make it happen at the right time Dana could have made the fight happened in 2018 itself Khabib Vs GSP is still a hope
I absolutely don't know what would happen. IF ANYONE could take the Goat, maybe GSP
Honestly Could GSP stuff KN?
GSP said himself that khabib is bigger than him in normal weight...why is khabib not considering 170 i dunno
morning star size advantage
Really kabib bigger than him in normal weight??
@@shanmukhsagi9166 Yes bro
Khabib and tony ( probably poirier) both walks heavier than GSP
Good luck Khabib for your next fight
He was spot on here bigger fight for fame and money is conor but legacy its GSP
mannnnnn, gsp vs khabib would have been good for LEGACY and for MONEY for khabib, such a shame it didnt happen
Love how he says GSP is already greatest athlete in the UFC, likely saying he's the GOAT of his division. The respect GSP and Khabib have for each other is amazing. Both are in a class of their own. GOATs respecting GOATs makes me happy.
At 170 even now GSP would still more than likely win. Idk that he can go down to 155 and win at this point in his life though.
Why not meet in the middle ish at like 160-165
KhaBib, please go to 145 and get that belt too.
Do you want him to die while cutting weight?
October - Justin
April - GSP
We wish😭
Nobody wants to go to the ground with GSP.
but khabib want
@@dnotorious7582 it's not a good idea for khabib. Gsp is not like another.
If you say Tony khabib will win.
Bro watch some fights of gsp the. You will know who is the real goat
@@anazcm7489 Conor mcgregor is garbage pig toxic mosquito like u
@@dnotorious7582 what are you talking about shit head. Fuck McGregor. I'm a khabib fan. But gsp is not like everybody he fought. He is kinda diffrent. So I'm hoping he will not fight gsp. If he does maybe he will win. But maybe gsp. So it would destroy his legacy. I want his record to be 30. 0.
@@MickSkitz yea gsp have amazing takedown defence. So it would be a tough fight
So gsp vs khabib it never gonna happen?
If this fight is going to happen then khabib has to get to 170. It's not fair to ask gsp to get to 155 because he is almost 40 years
We need a fight between them at 163
The awareness on Khabib that he wants no part of GSP at 170, lots of respect
GSP few UFC fighters that makes ground fighting exiting.
"Why he need to come back? For what?"
At this point, I would just pay to watch them spar.
Habib knows GSP WOULD kick his ass at 170, so Khabib wants GSP at minus 10 pounds muscle IOW 25 pounds lighter than GSP"s natural weight at 8% bodyfat!
Basically, if Khabib fights GSP at 170, GSP wins. If the fight happens at 155, Khabib wins. Khabib needs to gain some more weight and GSP has to cut some weight, otherwise it is damn near impossible to make it a near equal match
Only if GSP is a few years younger, he is almost 40.
Khabib and GSP are world class fighters. Not like all the wannabes
Conner
Tony
Donald
pls do it :D
