I wanted to write a comment in support of the interviewer. Excellent and professional work my friend. Polite and intelligent. In general, good work. I also wish victory to our brother Islam Makhachev.
Yes, he is an amazing interviewer.
Yeah not your typical robotic interviewer
Hi Khabib.
I’m the same. Hats off to him
He called football soccer mkr
Honestly I love his calm demeanour. Maybe others prefer a loud brash guy, but to me this is a breath of fresh air. Can't wait for this fight, may the best man win.
Weirdos rather praise Strickland and hate on Islam smh
May Islam win we just want Islam to win to shut the haters specialy McGregor chicken 😂
I agree. I hate Russia but I cannot help but like this guy. This is the fight of two very respectful fighters.
Totally agree
@@JWolf-nh9uw dude if u wanna go back like 80 years ago russia may have killed most of his ancestors
That deep breath Islam took when asked about Abdulmanap says it all.
Legend 🙌
Dude! I had to rewind immediately. What a moment. RIP..
💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💪🏾👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Who Fook is that guy??? As Olivera smashed this guy
He was remembering losing his virginity. It gets lonely in the barren hills of Dagestan.
@@stephendaedalus6192 yall just collecting bad karma at this point.
DUDE!! his English improved a lot. just wow mad props to him.
That's why I respect Islam more than Charles. Dude spent 12 years in UFC still we need a Goat translator to express the feeling of the champion.
@@luminousdreams8405 that’s tough😅
props to islam for putting in time and effort to communicate with English speaking fans better. however I respect Charles all the same regardless of a language barrier. They're mixed martial artists at the end of the day, what does speaking a certain language have to do with fighting ?
@@luminousdreams8405 no one cares about ur respect
@@limhan3209 more communication with fans and more money
These guys are the only guys who actually reveal their fight plan and still get it done
Alex periera too
Gynosanya too
It's the only way they know who to fight sit and lie on people till they tire like homer Simpson
Because nothing escapes *the claw of the Eagle*
Abdulmanap sounds like an amazing man. May god rest his soul.
That's up to Satan.

@@stephendaedalus6192 🤡🤡
Oliveira can’t speak a lick of English and had been in US for over decade Islam speaks better English than us British and he’s been learning it for not that long. I respect that 🤝
That's why Dana hates Charles lol been telling him for years to learn english
@NEGA CHIN that's why he's fighting one of the most anticipated fights in recent times.
Am very impressed
Mad respect 👏🙌🙏
@NEGA CHIN lmao dude
It’s hard not to love this guy. It’s making it a difficult call for the win; head says Charles, heart says Islam
Don't worry. Volkanovski, Gamrot, Tsarukyan, Dariush and Fiziev all say that for them Islam probably will win. And these dudes (except Volkanovski until now) are the true elite lightweights for me.
The heart always tells the truth..is the brain who confuses people
@@cihadbedirhanayyildiz3626 so true all of those lightweights u mentioned are the real top 5, they would beat poirer gaethje chandler etc
It would be heart says Charles… head says Islam all day.
Really? Most boring dude in the UFC imo
Islam's scariest feature is his calmness , Dude is hungry !
dude so true, like playing ping pong in Embedded just crazy--- I get "send me location" vibes lol
@@aref6561 he’s Khabib 2.0 nobody expected him to outclass Do bronx everywhere on the feet in the clinch and most importantly on the ground submitting the greatest submission artist ever in history.
Islam's best interview ever
Not really
The more I watch Islam’s interviews the more I like him. Such a very polite guy !
Am very shocked islam manged to improve his english to such level in a short time.
He also has a fair point on how charles got his title shot. But western casual mma community draw the line on him.
I was leaning towards charles but seeing this guy confident. And NEW!!
Excellent interview btw.
Oliveria and Islam are truly remarkable fighters and we're very fortunate to witness this fight at their peak.
Still, truth be told, I kinda miss the odd and hilarious charisma of Khabib and Tony, when they were trying to go at each other during interviews. 😂
lol😀 Khabibier as what Tony used to call him before fathead and tiramisu Tuesday. and Khabib would make fun of Tony too. But now Charles is quiet. Islam is also quiet. Both respectable men just talking about the fights, preparations and no one doing like khabib vs Tony.. I miss those times...
@@akosim002080 hey tiramisu, hey sunglasses, lol.. 😂
@@dakwahherechannel1894 dang.. sunglasses was the last press conference that I thought they would finally fight and covid hit the world
Hey sunglasses 😎
@@akosim002080
The amount of respect he has for khabib and abdul manap is heart melting. He seems like such a pure soul, he is so calm and respectful. This is gonna be a good fight.
He is actually like a donald cerrone style extreme sports kinda guy surprisingly, ride horses and dirtbikes in the mountains. But yeah def a very soft spoken thoughtful dude
@@tamie341 and also the name of the champion
love and respect and prayer for coach Abdul Manap..... Allah may bless islam with victory!!!
khabibs father got smeshed into depths of -heII
Not a big fan of religion myself and dont have much experience but ahamdullah (that's probably spelt wrong) to all Muslims who have lost someone
@@hyywe240 alhamdulillah * nice try brother
@@hyywe240 so ur saying that ur thankful for all the muslims that have lost someone? ur thankful for their pain?
@@beaualIoevv damn, that hatred running through ur veins like poison
The calmness of the Dagestan fighters is scary lol. Can't wait for UFC280 - LFG
Watching islam talk makes me wanna sleep. He is so peaceful and calm within himself it's almost like meditation. It's infectious af.
Ikr haha he has a calm soul
Man's is also cutting a ton of weight and not a native English speaker
He talks like he is at a library
@@wael4070 but fights like he's at the cafeteria 😃
Truly lives up to his name :) His way of celebrating a world championship is by seflessly serving and feeding others. It is so inspiring to see such successful men in this day and age, living well and truly in accordance to the example of Prophet Muhammad peace be upon Him. Very few people like these Dagestani brothers. May Allah swt grant them more victory and success and make them a means of guidance to many people ameen.
Brilliant comment. Aamin
Ameen
Very well said ! May Almighty Allah bless them and grant them top notch achievements. These brothers from Gaguestan are a living examples of humility, perseverance,faith , selflessness and self confidence ! We wish them the very best of luck !
Ameen, but i realised one thing if not wrong hitting face is not allowed in Islam.
Aamiin
Very nice interview. Adam is very good, respectful and smart. Although Islam believe on his skills and excited for the fight, he is always humble and grateful on Khabib's father. Islam and Khabib are my most favorite MMA fighters. Real role models for the sport.
Wrestling Leon Edwards in his first time in the Cage speaks volume how good this guy is.
I respect charles, but I can't deny the system of Abdul Nurmagomedov.
he didn't say beat Leon but took him down.
Leon had zero wrestling at the time. He didn't "beat" him. He said he instantly shot for a double leg and took him down.
Tbh I think he can take many guys bigger than him down, cause it ain't just strength but balance and weight management
@@nia9045 Weight bully, like Kebab. Probably walks around heavier than the far taller Edwards.
Islam is so calm all the time 😂
So true , according to abdulmanap s neighbors and friends they said that Abdulmanap always find a way to fix the problem , while other people are arguing cuz they have a problem Abdulmanap will always calm them down and say stop arguing we will find a way ...
Calm and composed; that is Islam; wish u all the best Brother; Do what u do best on Saturday and Bring back the belt to where it belongs!
Respect his english skills
His English is remarkable, and how he portrayed AbdulManap… wow
Listening to all these interviews and just see the change in the talk of these dagestani guys when they are talked about khabib's father.... That man has earned so much respect from these guys...
Dude looks starving. Fighters are on another level of discipline
He's making weight so that's normal
Can we take a moment to appreciate Adam with how he did this interview 👌🏽 we need to give people like him and Dan Hardy more credit because they're amazing at what they do 🔥 can't wait for this Saturday and I hope Islam comes out victorious 💪🏼
Always Father's Plan Brother 💙
this reminds me of khabib vs conor and Dustin all over. Everyone said conor and dustin finished elite levels guys. People are going to be shocked if Islam wins
It will not be easy for both because this like khabib vs Tony in prime time for both
Right. Then why's he the favorite, then?
Facts
It's crazy. He fought the champ the first time he stepped on the cage
Islam is the fresher, younger, stronger and better overall skilled mma fighter. Islam wins this! Change my mind!
Great interview! Best look into Islams personality thus far by far! So much respect for coach, he would be proud of what these guys are doing with his legacy. ✌️ SO PUMPED!!!
The way he said " I'm so excited" yet he said it so oce cold.. he wins this one, by submission, 3rd round.
Malaysia with Islam Makachev.. insyallah new champion
InshaAllah boleh menang
Ikat tepi
Islam Makhachamp
Olivera ikat tepi 1
Mana port watch party
Appreciate Islam learning English. Now without any translator at all and even trying to trash talk Khabib saying he's 94 kgs roasting him like that in BT sport interview. He is confident now in front of camera. I wish more of interviews like this to showcase the other side of fighter's personality. So far, he brought out the personality of islam a little bit. We can see a peak of his funny side.
I've done nothing but binge everything related to this weekend's event, that's how excited I am for this card.
I'm the same to bro
SAME LOL
Same
much love for islam! so humble , love from kurdistan!
ISLAM TIME , LETS GET THAT BELT BROTHER
English and MMA skill has gotten better since Ive watched. This will be an amazing card!
Exactly,l thought the same how fast he learned English is amazing
What an epic interview - props to the interviewer for asking great questions, understanding Islam's English is not the best, using body language skills and making Islam talk a lot for the first time lol
.
If islam doesn't beat Charles,,, the conversation remains the same..
Islam is a beast , 100% future champ.
These people from such a tough and hard life in the mountains are titanium. They're so in prowess, self-confidence, stamina,will, bravery,modesty, humility and selflessness . They meritoriously deserve the title of Paragons! Habib has lived up to those very laudable qualities and thus he has proven his merits and so will Islam God willing. These brothers are literally on a different level !
Allah Bless!
Ислам Махачев станет чемпионом 22 октября!
Inshallah
@@midlymdad1293 إن شاء أللّه تبارك و تعالى
ни за что
The scary thing is khabib said there's about 10 younger guys coming through who are going be deadly. Dam these dagestanis don't play.
Not at all they are lions
At least 10% of them are top fighters level. Cause I’ve seen many dagestan fighters that don’t have success like Tagir, Zubaira, AbuBakar, Muslim Salikhov and some got potential like Said, Umar, Ankalaev
@@MohdAmirulHafiz Usman too, about to fight for the Bellator strap
Wish him all the best 🙏
Charles isn’t even promoting 😭
Let's Go Islam!!! Bring the Crowned back with his Memory from Late Father ever!!!!
He is from the school of AbdulManap Nurmagomedov… he will be okay in shaa allah
Respect to Coach Abdulmanap Allahu yarham and is team , all the best Islam Makhachev.
Khabib nurmagomedov 🐐🤝🏻
The interviewer's approach is very humble and that made a very friendly atmosphere between them... Good luck to Islam and he definitely deserved that belt...
Cant dislike Olivera or Islam..
RESPECT TO BOTH..MAY THE BEST MAN WIN !!!!
Wow!
What a man.....
Having champions quality instilled in every aspect....
Best wishes....!
Islam is so likeable. Future champion. The time has come!
Respect to all these people I remember seeing Khabib getting angry when asked about Tony mental health isssues and everyone started laughing when asked soon as he spoke and said everybody have problems in this world we should help him++ all there smiles went then from that day I became a fan humble people
islam u will win always support from India 🇮🇳
adam :whats your soccer position?
islam:everywhere😂😂😂😂
Fantastic english Islam, well done.
If he finishes Charles on the ground it will be massive! Not saying he's likely to do so but just the thought of it... Finishing Charles while he's at his peak will put him at Gods tier!
He will do just that, he's getting that strap..
STFU LOL.. OLIVEIRA AINT SOME GOD ON THE GROUND U CASUALS TRY TO MAKE HIM OUT TO BE... ISLAM CAN SUBMIT OLIVEIRA ON THE GROUND WHENEVER THE F HE PLEASES
No. It will get him second ranked win. Lay off sniffing khabibs crotch
Felder did that already
@@TrendysLolAcademy he said “while he’s at his peak” which means no he didn’t
My brothers Dagestan make dua for me
Insha Allah I pray that Islam makhachev will win 🏆
Don't think it works that way, champ.
Alhamdulillah islam won
This guy is truly the best interviewer
cant be understated how impressive his performance was. seriously a historic fight
Its Islam time!!!!!!
Islam Makhachev all day!🤑🔥
I am Islam's supporter but at this stage we can all agree that we will all be happy whoever wins the fight. Both are such phenomenal fighters and its hard not to like any of them. Good luck to both.
Good view
Tbh honest i really want islam to become the champ he truly deserves but charles is good boy after islam i will support him for sure
The CALMNESS 😳
and new lw champion.. Islam Makachev
I cant pick a winner i respect both fighters and their backgrounds
islam inchallah 🙌🏻💪🏻🇩🇿👋🏻
Dzirii 3alamyy ntaya 💪🏻
The interviewer seems genuine and a fan of Islam.
Annnd neew lightweight champ inshaAllah, let's go 🔥🔥⚔️🎊
inshaAllah
Inshallah
What a genius reporter and episode!!
Now we know who islam is
One of the best fights ever! Can not call it either way. Either man could win.
Honestly I'm very excited, this line from Islam with calm face 😄😄
Great interview. Great job Adam & Islam.
And new…so many people are underestimating this man! He will be the champion on Saturday!
Rooting for Islam , hope he will continue the legacy of Abdulmanap, But Oliveira is a monster. May the best win.
Adam Catteral is the best MMA journalist/interviewer
In sha Allah ( God willing ☝️ )
These guys from bt sport hate Islam makhachev and they want him to lose badly. Let's go Islam makhachev.shut all the haters out.
Why cuz they picked Charles ? That doesn’t mean they hate the other guy
The champ has a name and it ain’t Islam
Charles gonna send your boy to me wth khabib dad and Allah soon mashallah
@@lucastfitness7299 no man. They disrespected Islam a lot and they called him many things.islam should not have given an interview to these clowns.
@@gibgibbo5738 i'll be back son
always look forward to Islam interviews, and this interviewer never disappoints either. I remember when he didn't even bother explaining the rules of billiards to Khabib and just kept it moving like a real journalist. Great job guys, always a great watch with this TNT team.
Charles lives in USA for what 12 years and never bother to learn English. That's why I respect Islam more.
really? i thought he live in brazil and was only trained in the US like 3 months before the fight.
I thought his main residence is Brazil
Most of his camp is in the US. Out of that 13 years it's probably 7 years clean
@@missmong12 Exactly.
This interviewer is great asking really good questions
He is very humble guy. He also worked in his english a lot. Islam inshallah New Lightweight champion. 🔥🔥🔥
What a great interview. I'm glad Islam is learning the language and sharing himself with the MMA fans. Can't wait to see him in the cage on Saturday.
we need more sportsman like Islam!!! Im so hyped omg
The calm Assassin -)
Islam for the belt. All the best Islam. Great interview as always
I love this interviewer Adam great man
Props to Adam. Such a great no bullshit host to conduct interviews. 👏👏👏
Mashallah he is such a down to the earth person Mashallah Islam May Allah bless u brother always all ways.
The victory inchaAllah
Let's go Islam!! And new! Inshallah 🙏🏼
The beauty of Sports..Excellent promotion!!
Inshallah ISLAM WILL BE THE NEW LIGHTWEIGHT I ACTUALLY CANT WAIT TO SEE WHO WINS
Such a great person to interview.
ah beautiful Adam and Islam, was a good conversation
I really want this guy to win on Saturday, let’s go Islam !
This man is so handsome
OMG is that secret juice guy 🤣🤣🤣
Many people uses Khabib to belittle Islam. I think he deserves more respect. Rooting for Islam 🙏🙏🙏
Heart says both, head says both. Can’t wait for this.
