People in Dagestan have a rich social life too. They love spending time in nature, swimming, and enjoying various sports. The most important thing is that they prioritise family, which is something I really respect. One of the guys in the interview mentioned that they don't have wives, which isn’t true. A lot of people, especially in the West, assume that Dagestanis don’t live like everyone else, but in reality, they are incredibly happy and content. Just because they don’t go clubbing, drinking, or smoking doesn't mean they don’t enjoy life. They find joy in different things. I think it's important to get a deeper understanding before making assumptions about other cultures.
Peaceful life alhamdulillah may ALLAH guide you and me
I caught that too, he probably thought that they train too much to the point that they don't have a romantic life. Which is ignorant and untrue.
I just feel like if Bo wants that similar respect he has to earn it
Exactly. All this talk about beating khamzat just makes him seem delusional bc he hasn’t earned the credibility to compete at that level.
If he wants respect, then ĥe should talk less and do more.
@@Dana__black Dude they all need to be delusional to succeed. Khamzat is delusional, Izzy is delusional, Islam is delusional, Umar is delusonal, Jon Jones is delusional...theyre all that.
Khamzat is good but he has fought a total of 0 good wrestlers his size. One win at 185. Yeah he looked good but one win and title shot? Thats so privileged lmao
@@234i9 usman and whittaker is two fights. the usman fight was at 185 and usman is also a good wrestler so that 0 is also incorrect.
@@234i9 yeah, but they all backed it up. Khamzat, Izzy, Islam, Jones and Umar were destroying people while Bo was having trouble with Paul Craig lmao
You can tell Bo is secretly obsessed with the Dagestan team. He just knows he has to play it cool.
No he’s just obsessed with khamzat and he’s Chechen but close enough
He's a martial artist. He's also a fan of martial arts. Naturally, he would respect, admire, and strive towards excellence. Khabib is what we all thought Bruce Lee was. Even Connor, the reason Connor hates Khabib is because Khabib is everything Connor wanted to be but couldn't. Respect, treated as the goat, admired by millions for his honor and discipline, etc.
i don´t blame him, the dagestani team is full of sucess
he's a fan of mma bruh
@@naturalbornkiller361 the cover is blown
Bo is literally asking what they do in their training camp so he could use it
Bo probably like: "so DJ can you maybe film them next time?" Haha
Like every fighter does with other great fighters 😂legit anyone who trained with gsp can give you a breakdown of how he did it because you pay attention and take notes
@@Sx-xy2zi😂😂😂
All his questions are a good reflection of the bitterness felt by Americans loosing repeatedly to Russians at the Olympics
Lmao
Facts bro
Not Russians, muslims
@Wickedyswish Stop bringing religion into sports
@Wickedyswishwhere are arab Muslims at Olympic why mostly Muslims in soviet countries
Simply Khabib and his team success because of their, religion and hard working... period
Key word religion. As in they are privileged in the UFC because of the Saudi/muslim market.
No, religion has nothing to do with it.
nothing to do with religion idk wtf ur talkign about
Has a lot to do with Islam. Islam teaches discipline and hard work whilst upholding mora principles. It equips you with transferable skills and completes you as a human being.
@@yahyahali8313Paris 1985
Reputation is the side dish that comes with belts, medals and titles, Bo.
nah, they have hype for sure outside of medals and belts.
@@234i9 cry more hater
@@234i9 Yes, but that hype was built (initially) by Khabib steamrolling every opponent and it being well known that he was the most avoided fighter on the roster during his come up. Islam had the same thing (save for the one loss he had). That naturally built the hype before they ever touched a belt. Khabib in particular because he was undefeated had that aura of dominance
@234i9 The hype is a consequence of their dominance, evident by their record, titles, belts.
I live in a place with a big Dagestani population. There’s an MMA gym that they opened up in the neighborhood a couple years ago. They literally have 5 year olds that feel solid. Kids picking up other kids and slamming them. Fighting runs in their blood and there’s no way you can replicate being in a whole culture that’s like that. My kids started at 3 and 5 in the gym and they were already behind just cuz they’re not Dagestani. It’s unbelievable.
and what are you?
@ Palestinian.
@@farskygooglificationI know well wishes mean nothing, but wishing you well brother. Also ironically, even though Conor is a worm, Irish people are big supporters of palestine 😊
To only credit dagestani fighters by saying their biggest asset is their reputation makes no sense. They just work harder ever since childhood. Thats why they are good
He’s so bitter
Yeah im sure theyre all clean.
@@234i9nobody injects more steroids in their bodies than american athletes btw, they just don't get caught because they know how to make it look all legal.
I think as he's an all American wrestler they have to see Dagestanis as forever rivals even though this is MMA not wrestling
@@234i9😂😂. You’re coping under every comment. Keep hating kid 😂
They all have wives and kids. Difference is, they don't make a big deal about it. You'll never hear a Dagestani guy say "I just became a father and it gave me motivation" or something like that.
Exactly
Dont get it twisted. Their wives & kids are very important to them, as are their parents & friends. Their culture & religion places great emphasis of Family values. But sadly, there are a lot of weirdos online, racists, pervs, allsorts, so they dont post public pics of their wives & kids on social media to protect their privacy
You don't want to be a female there 😂
@HopePeace-hr5qx what family values are you talking about exactly?
Reputation is earned, good or bad.. it’s earned..
Always be humble.
Alhamdulillah!☝🏼🤲🏻
Alhamdulillah ❤
@ ❤️
Bo, nobody is denying you’re an extremely high level wrestler. This is MMA, if you want the recognition and respect the Russian fighters have been able to garner using wrestling in MMA. Go out and prove people wrong instead of whining and complaining. We have not seen you fight any high level fighters yet and when you fought Paul Craig, you were hesitant to wrestle.
Bo is a fan of these people I think😂
I think his questions sounded more like questioning why people think they are so special when they are not. He said" when people go in there with them,they are already defeated." so, he thinks that they are not that special because sBo thinks he is better.
Hes a secret hater, envious & trying to find out everything they do to help him figure out a way to try to beat them. Whereas the Dagestanis never waste time doing all this spying & obsessing on what their opponants are doing. They just focus on being the best they can be.
9:45 wrong
Almost all of them are married.
And they have several children each.
Khabib's wife was pregnant and gave birth while he was being in a fight camp
The dork with the glasses doesn’t know anything
Yup Khabib has a 10 year old kid I think and another kid
Of course, this is not just a matter for the Dagestani fighters
According to this donk, It turns out that they are just masturbating and training
They don’t show their families on social media. They are very private people.
Lol you realize he escaped the terror at home
Bo is so worried to wrestle a Dagestanie
a chechen* xD
@@AXharoth Also Ikram😂
@@AXharoth He's literally asking about the Dagestani Eagles mma team
Dagestani's biggest asset is their religious conviction.
I am waiting for the Talibans to dominate olympic wrestling and mma.
BS. Why aren't the arabs doing as well then. Religion has nothing to do with it, they're just better at fighting
Bo’s comment about fighters losing before they even fight Khabib/Islam is because both earned that mentality. There were numerous fighters, including high level wrestlers, who initially didn’t feel that way, but afterwards remarked how they were blown away by how good Khabib really was. It’s not make believe, it’s real.
As Khabib said, many fighters think they can beat him, but after first round they don't think like this anymore.
It's also Genetics and their Environment. These guys are from the Mountains. Dagestan has/had the highest elevated habitable villages in Europe. So as a result they probably have higher red blood cells. Add to that their culture, training and being Austere Muslims and you get that result
But they always seem to gas out… literally had 2 dagastani in tight fights and both gassed after the 3rd round
Dagestani neighborhood Georgia also have same blood
@@DoomerNunyaFr, even Khabib got tired against Conor, who has really bad 5 round cardio. Khabib is lucky that he never faced a Georgian lol.
It’s work ethic it’s purely that. Some Russians have certain genes and alleles than are better than most. Id bet khabib and Islam have them. But work ethic plays a role as well
They also been essentially training mma their whole lives
Bo tryna be like the Dagestanis lol
no he wants the info
Bo Nickal, we're with you all the way brother, we are truly proud to have such a true athlete and a family guy like you to represent America!
9:45 guy is off his head, he said they don't have life outside of the ring
Yeah I don’t know what the hell is he waffling about, maybe his western brain is used to life outside the ring being parties, drugs and alcohol.
Islam has like 1,000 Horses and other animals in his farm
Bo you ain't on the dagestani level bruh. They cut from a different cloth
He's better in pure wrestling
Yea, the cloth you wipe your ass with
@@ItzEra-go4ub Yea but who cares? They're better MMA fighters, Bo was afraid of taking Paul to the ground, and Paul is only good at an armbar and triangle in full guard
@@BigPoppaSufiwell you saw ankalaev was dominating Paul until the last seconds of the fight, got quickly subbed. It can happen.
@@BigPoppaSufi Paul subbed Ankalaev who supposedly is this amazing dagestani wrestler.
And Khamzat didnt dare to go to the ground with Gilbert Burns lol. A 155er.
I respect everything Bo has achieved in his career, but he doesn't have the courage to admit that Dagestani fighters are simply better than American fighters. If you look at the rankings, many Dagestani fighters are on the verge of becoming UFC champions this year, which clearly shows who is dominating the sport right now. It’s not just a fluke, they’re consistently proving themselves to be on another level. The discipline, dedication, and culture they have behind them is unmatched, and it’s making a huge impact on MMA as a whole. This also motivates a lot of the younger generation and shows a real example of how a true fighter should behave and train.
If Bo wants to know so badly just go to khabib and join
I don't think they accept just anybody. Mighty, Belal, and the AKA crew are special cases.
@@alexferdinansyah757
Just speak with Ali
Bo tryna get the scoop
so what youre saying is demeterious is not a mouse he's a rat? xD
@@AXharotha rat whose the 🐐. Not like coke tap machine
Haha @AX
We have to respect the Dagestanis but we have to give Bo the same exact respect as a WRESTLER not mma guy. Bo is elite as well!
I wonder how many times Bo rewatched this video 😂
Bo is Bitter AF.
Bo tryna get their secrets
I would too
Mighty is great
2-3 years in Dagestan and become Bo Nickalov.
Reputation part is definitely there but the question is how dID they gain that reputation. BY DOMINATING
Bo poking around for any secrets 😂
Thanks for the video, BO NICKAL
Most of the dagestani fighters do actually have wives and kids too
Bo why don't you go train in Dagestan and learn how they train. I wonder if any american fighters apart from Belal have done this?
A few did get over,Not much,with khabib etc in their gym with them they have to Allow you and get to know you
Hard work every day, train hard - fight easy
Video quality is so clean 👌🏼
0:14 DJ's background should have 12 belts😢
No he doesn't, he only has 5 belts in his house.
@@thanasballabani1026i know that.....😑
Ufc lost his remaining 6 belts
@myownlilbubble oh sorry I read it wrong. I thought you commented, "DJ has 12 belts in the background." I was high that night.
DJ is the only legend who put an end to Rodtang iron myth to an end.
Bo backhanded compliments towards the Dagestanis.
Brother Bo, send yourself 2-3 years to Dagestan and forget! You'll be an MMA / Olympic champ next year(s) 💪
Combat Sambo isn't perfect and Team Khabib aren't flawless too. It's their religiousness, hardcore discipline and self control that makes them so efficient and dominance. Rogan already said it before. It's that supreme sense of discipline.
also to do with the brotherhood and team environment. They pull each other inline no individual is more important than the next. I guarantee you, as an individual, they would not be so successful. The religious and degastani culture plays a huge roll in they way they are as a team.
O oh bo is worried so much 😂
As Americans, a lot of our best genetics are playing other sports, not wrestling or doing MMA. That's a major factor to consider.
They’re so good at keeping the personal lives private that you think they do nothing else but sleep eat and train.. but they have full lives with families kids wives parents brothers grandparents and they’re involved in everything.
Ignorant comment. Just because you dont see them socially with their family doesnt mean they dknt have a social life or family. The moment americans stop seeing the world through their uncultured eyes, the better we will be. Respectfully.
Bo the fact you’re doing a podcast instead of training is the difference.
For them, coach us like second father, you don't argue with coach, you do what he says if you want to be champion.
Mighty man Demetrious legend
Bo think Penn State got something on Khabib camp lol
Demettrious's camera set up looks like you're sitting with him in the room. Amazing! Also, Keep up the great content Bo
Bo when will you fight a ranked fighter? Khamzat was fighting ranked opponents in his 4th ufc fight. I guess he’s just a lot more confident in his skills huh?
Khamzat had more pro fights outside ufc tho.
He also fought undersized men to make his reputation. Bo just fought a former 205 contender. Lets see khamzat do that?
@@234i9Lets See bo make easy work of rob😂😂😂😂😂
@@jonasjorgensen8759 and? Bo is supposedly some wrestling phenom yet gets babied. He’s looked like garbage in all his fights.
@@234i9😂😂 you crying under every comment lmao. Coping hard. I know you cry everytime a dagi wins 😂
Please read the holy Quran in English translation insha Allah
Those fighters came from rough places that’s number one reason they are poor and they live in the mountains
1:45 amazing man 🎉🎉
Hi Bo, I like how you're doing here. Congratulations on your incredible wrestling career!
People, there's another significant difference, besides the dedication to the sport and brotherhood (the energy they accumulate around themselves. We Bulgarians call it the Way of the Warrior) is Combat Sambo. They repeat it in every interview 😅
It combines movements from a real fight. In the shortened version, Sambo is MMA(small differences). Understand that Jiu-Jitsu, Judo, Wrestling, Grappling, Boxing, Muay Thai and others. They have all this and develop it throughout their entire conscious lives. This means the guy hu have background one or to of this sports already have disadvantages.
In general, in the coming years, MMA coaches around the world will have to transform their programs if they want to cope with the unique way of the Dagestanis! IYI
This guy is the nicest humble guy man he talks like he’s not 10x champion or whatever 😂
I think there work ethic there cardio and intensity is a underrated part of there game you have to try and match them physically we all no there very skilled wrestlers in Grapplers but there's more but it's deeper than they're just very skilled wrestlers there's more to it than meets the eye idk thats just my opinion
Something you didn't mention, that is shared in all Russia,, no only Dagestan, and in all sports, is that they do a lot of "low" intensity volume training.
Ok, low intensity at their level is still intense of course, but this is really a thing in Russia... it works
If I was khabib I wanted accept anyone who is not part of the team from beginning . I wouldn't wanted someone to start letting out training info.
Bo was asking for anything different than they do than us 😂 is like asking for a key to beat them 😂💯
Y’all love to hate this dude. He’s been at the top of the hardest sport …. MMA is next. Just wait.
Cultural disparity ? Eat sleep train ? I don’t think that at all. They have lives, just not like yours and more disciplined and in tune with their culture and traditions. America lost all that in the past decade.
I think a guy as high level as Bo could benefit enormously from camping in Daguestan. Even if it’s just for getting a feel for the different edge that they might be giving to it…
islam the best p4p fighter number one in the world ☝🏻🔥✊🏻
Kinda misleading to say "a lot of them don't have wife".
Khabib have wife and 3 kids, Islam have wife and 3 kids. They all have family too but it's exactly what Khabib talk about when he says sacrifice. No one is happy spending less time with family, it's a sacrifice to them, not simply "culture".
That's why it makes perfect sense to them to retire early cause when they're in the game, they have to gave it all. Similar to what DJ said but most of the other athlete probably train closer with their family.
thank you bo
Bo being a weezle trying to get the secret sauce at khabibs camp
Sent bo nickal to dagestan 1 years training, grow beard, then hes ready vs khamzat
But until then you grind
I think Bo has so much potential. I hope to see more grappling domination in the UFC. The punches and kicks make grappling so much different in MMA. I think Bo’s gonna be a star for sure though!
We'll see
Bo is bold and say whatever he think. That beautiful, I hope he will never sugarcoat nothing.
Keep working. Time will tell.
Bo Knuckles just go and train with the Dagi Bros I'm sure you'll be welcome ❤ (no sarcasm, genuinely)
back with beard for sure..
Bo is taking notes.
Time is ticking away, Bo
Hey Bo Knuckle! I hear you say you wanna fight with Dagestan guy
Bo is a little bit indignant at the fact that the casual martial arts fan see them as these world class wrestlers even though only the ones that specialise in wrestling are world class. Which is silly because he's old enough to know that popular opinion isn't usually the most well aligned with reality opinion lol.
9:47 Correction all have arranged marriages according to Caucasusian and Islamic customs😅
Clearly the people in the comments have no clue who Bo Nickal is 😭
Bo is the best wrestler in the ufc just strictly wrestling its all Bo. But mma is different and Bo had to continue to improve but he’s a the future for sure
Dagestan rent free in bo nick mind
When is Bo gonna fight again?
Bo should just go to Dagestan and find out 😂
BO wants intel 😂😂😂
Bo is losing it mentally the whole podcast lol
Sour grapes
He’s curious cause he relates to them but has no one “like him” in UFC.. anyone who knows Bo will agree he’s a very talented grappler, the resume in wrestling speaks it self.. but he’s still young in MMA, like 1 or 2 years ?? So hes trying to see how their camps are, dominate grapplers who are doing very good in MMA and how they do wrestling drills in an MMA scenario.
Bo will make it far in the UFC, I think the only challenge will be Khamzat.
Bo is definitely bitter🤣
He hasn’t fought enough to have earned the respect that he thinks he deserve.
Send him 2-3 years dagestan and forget 😂
How do you think they got the reputation except with dominance ?
Bo is a great fighter, but his self promotion strategy is weak. He claims that the biggest challenge for Dagestanis is their reputation, which is a typical ignorant American worldview. Dagestanis, Chechens, and other Caucasus fighters have had that reputation for centuries, it's only becoming widely known now because of MMA and the UFC.
Bo should take the opportunity to train with them, like others have done, and learn as much as he can, especially considering his age. It would only benefit him in the long run.
Why is mighty mouse so cool?
Bo go link up Khabib and Islam!
What the fuck is wrong woth the ufc fighters they all wanna podcast , its getting annoying bro😅
Bo partially exposed in his last fight
7:11 Bo you seem unable to think out of the box. They are starting at 5 and Training like they're adults. Non of this namby pamby, children are fragile bullshit you get in the States and Europe. I'm not saying thats necessarily good for children, but its a DIFFERENT level of pressure and stress those Dagestani, Chechen kids are subjected to. So just from that their mental toughness is higher that 90% of "Western" kids. Now as a 5 YO you're competing with other 5 YOs who've had the same tough training and mental conditioning. I wouldn't be surprised if the coaches there still beat the kids either, even at 5YO.
Having said all that, that doesn't mean the Dagestanis etc can't be beaten, of course they can. EVERYONE is beatable (even Khabib, if he'd stayed on), BUT EVERYONE is stepping into that octagon with a disadvantage!!
DJ. Help out Bo for USA. Teach him the Dagy ways
