His mom being happy is a strong reason. Retiring to let another man shine in your place is not a good reason at all. DC and Cain Velasquez are very close and they handled that the best way. DC dropped down a weight class and they both ended up becoming champions.
Khabib is my goat. Always will be. For me, being a dominant champion means a lot, but when you pair that with being a good person outside of your sport, it means everything. RIP Abdulmanap. You raised real men
What Dana said is true from a business aspect. Khabib has more than enough money than he could ever wanted and Dana knows he can't leverage him to come back. Khabib's father passing away zapped any motivation from him being a fighter.
It was never about money and Dana just trying to look good. Poor guy. Answering questions about Khabib's retirement for so many years. It's never been money and it was the reasons inside the family, which we has nothing but respect. Dad passed away (ufc was his own dream, not Khabib's one) and mother committed the last fight. So Dana looks very studio for me, when he lie about wealth that Khabib got in Russia - cause Khabib refused to it. But poor old bold man didn't mention that , like a rat. No everyone loves money, as you do, Dana Greed.
his still going to gym and training... he taking charge the role of his dad...managing their crew especially his cousins Umar, Usman and his dad favourite student, Islam..
Yeah but he is talking about connor fight and he did fight twice after that against dustin and Justin...the catalyst was his father passing away and so he made the promise to his mom if his father was alive he wouldn't have retired that early..as there was no indication for that
Materialistic people who value money over their loved ones will find it hard to believe that khabib retired for reasons that had nothing to do with money.
@@ATrueFightersFighter doing business is materialistic? Look whether you like khabib or not, im not trynna be mean but just based on on your comment i think you need to rethink a lot of stuff in life, genuinely, forget about khabib for a moment and take this as an advice, doing business and making money is definitely not materialistic, it's not against Muslim not Christian standards to make money and grow in business, as long as you're not worshipping that money, long as that money doesn't control you and the way you look at life, long as it's not turning you away from God, long as you're not doing it by harming people and stealing their money aka gmblng, khabib was offered 40 million just to return, 40 million is khabib's net worth today, yet he could've made double that amount and more 5 years ago, so he could've made way more money, but khabib chose not to do something he no longer wants to do even if there's way more money in it and instead he chose something decent and something that keeps him sane and keeps his loved ones close to him. Dana can't understand that, he can't understand that family and decency are way more valuable than money, he thinks the only reason you would reject money is more money, see the difference? That's the difference between a materialistic and non materialistic person.
very true, I like Khabib but unfortunately he supports Sharia law which says it's ok to marry a 6 year old and many other bad things... But some people are cool with that.
@@LeonardoSilveti khabib is not cocky and controls his temper extremely well but has had moments where his emotions took over, he is still human. And slapped fighters?? The only "slap" he apparently did was on mcgregor's mate and please fact check before sperading bs because there was no slap at all.
In my humble opinion. Khabib had been the legitimate champion since 2014, after he beat DosAnjos. Technically, he wasn't, but in reason, he was. He left the UFC for 2 yeara after beating DosAnjos, and most people forget that. And in 2015, DosAnjos became the Champion! So he beat the champion before the champion became a champion, exactly one year earlier.
the right time for conor vs khabib was after conor beat alvarez because khabib was the one supposed to face alvarez and got side stepped by ufc for conor. Khabib was so pissed and went off about bullshit contracts and how conor is easiest fight in 155. the steel was hot then and both were younger, the fight would been better in my opinion then the one sided beatdown we saw where khabib was smeshing conor, or maybe conor was just blocking khabibs shots with his face. As well people forget how many fighters simply tried to avoid khabib completely because of his dominate style of fighting. they know the plan yet cannot stop it. Thats why khabib is the Goat in 155
He did not, it was the comission. However Dana wanted to suspend Islam he did not know the potential Islam had but Khabib threatened him with retirement before the Dustin and Justin fight so Dana stopped.
When Khabib cited his mother's request as the reason for his early retirement. It was hard for many people to accept that and try to come up with a more plausible reason. Everyone will measure in their own shoes. It is a fact that today many people cannot afford to sacrifice money and popularity for their own mother.
"You want to talk about one of the greatest coaches in the history of the sport thats never talked about, Khabib Nurmagomedov dad" Proceeds to not mention his name haha 0:27
This honestly pissed me off how Dana unintentionally or intentionally (gotta assume the best) didn't mention the Khabib mother thing and it is more about money even though Khabib was offered 100 million to return. (around 10x his entire UFC career) I mean when it's dana white, everyone and everything is money to you.
Khabib mentioned how after he kept Dana that he was retired, Dana asked him why he wouldn't at least name a price. I think that's just how Dana lives his life, he genuinely can't understand a motivator other than money
Well I think it’s more about that even if his dad died if khabib didn’t have the money he would have to still fight cause he would still have bills to pay. But with him having this money he doesn’t have to work
@@tsunax1400 Exactly, Dana thinks that he can buy anyone and it's just a matter of price. Classic American. He'll never understand why Khabib retired and why Fedor had never fought in UFC.
Fun fact - Khabib gave back those gifts to Putin and he also sent back Kadyrov gift which was a Mercedes G Wagon and Rolls Royce Ghost shortly after his father's passing. Basically Khabib did not sign his name on the properties when the time for personal reasons and also over the fact that Putin was bombing Syria in support of the brutal dictator Bashar Al Assad. He fell out and snubbed Ramzan Kadyrov after the Chechen dictator turned up to his father's funeral with an entire TV crew for publicity and a photo opportunity for himself which Khabib took great offence to and that later on escalated when Kadyrov slandered and insulted the founding father of Dagestan Imam Shamil of whom Khabib is a direct descendant. Khabib replied by sending back all his gifts and cutting him off completely and indirectly humiliated Kadyrov by highlighting greatness of Imam Shamil and how funny it is that even his enemies had praise for Imam Shamil and how the only ones speaking ill today are traitors and cowards who are only fierce against women and children. The women and children reference was definitely taking a jab at Kadyrov since Kadyrov sent goons and brutally attacked Fedor Emilianenko's teenage daughter after he criticised Kadyrov's childrens fighting organisation. The traitor reference was 1000% about his father Akhmad Kadyrov betraying Chechnya overnight for money and power and stabbing his countrymen in the back in the process which later cost him his life when he got sent flying to the moon like Team Rocket while he was in attending a concert at a stadium and their happened to be 3 artillery shells strapped to the bottom of his seat. So that's how Kadyrov courted Khamzat Chimaev and tried to use him against Khabib by buying him a G Wagon and property in Chechnya which failed miserably in the end because Khabib made it clear that Khamzat is his brother in faith and kinship. Overall Khabib is a boss that's stands on business even against the harshest of opponents and he does it in restrained fashion in order to protect his friends and family.
It's interesting how you support the Sunni Islamists and you're sorry because the black flag of Daesh didn't fly over Damascus. That says enough about you because you're sorry that the Islamists didn't kill all those who are not of the same faith as them.
So what Dana is really trying to say is, "We purposely pay fighters the least amount of money possible; so that fighters want to keep fighting for the rest of their lives."
Dana's statement maybe true for Conor but Khabib is the same guy who did not even change his car or lifestyle after becoming a superstar and a champ. So money is not an issue or cannot be a reason for him to stop doing what he loves. So, Dana that's your point of view because you value the money so much. Khabib did it for his family. Remember what he said: "No way I'm coming into the octagon without my father!".
what is he saying khabib's next 3 fights would have easily made him another 100$ million so his retirement was never about money or relaxation coz he still trains everyday . it was his promise to his mom that made him to retire from mma.
I do not agree with you, uncle Dana Coz. Not only the Islamic world loves and respect Khabib , but respectable people know that he belongs to them, whatever their religion, race, or nationality.
We would never have seen Charles Olivera with the belt had Khabib not retired early. He would have not retired until Islam was up there. The belt would have gone from Khabib to Islam.
He defended his belt 3 times, solidifying his legacy as the goat of the ufc and world. Who cares if DJ and Bones combined for like 25, legacy is doing what mommy wants.
It's a shame that money is the only thing that Dana cares about in this fight game. Habib could've done 30-0 and accomplished his father's dream but he promised his mother to retire. Every mother 0:07 wants a son who keeps his words like habib does. Very rare these day, Habib has inspired me to become a good person! Dana will never understand because he never had a father like Habib , because Dana never grew up in poor life like habib.
Of course, if you get money the least thing you want to do is getting fights to be punched in the face... except Khabib. He got money and never got pinched in the face. So he could easily come back though that guy is a man of his word.
Dana is a businessman, and what he said is a business man's approach. However, khabib is a great role model and fighter that money is not his highest priority. Dana needs to understand that.
Such a simple point, most of us didn’t think of it…once you get to that point you’re not getting punched in the face anymore. But don’t expect to be called the greatest of all time then
if it was about the money, Khabib would've easily made much more if he kept fighting, but money wasn't the most important thing for him, family is, n I know that to a lot of people including Dana, that is something unfathomable!
Dana basically ranting for not being able to squeeze more momey from Khabib 😂 Khabib being able to save enough money to retire while still healthy is possibly the best endgoal for any sportsman
Dana cant think beyond money, Khabib was in for legacy, he left because of his promise to his mother. But of course these concepts of respect and love parents hardly exist for these folks.
Dana’s cheap shot after 35 seconds suggesting that Khabib’s money reduced his motivation and trying to draw a parallel with Conor is ridiculous. Come on Dana! You’re just butt-hurt that he didn’t stick around to make more money for the UFC. This also explains Dana’s over eagerness in declaring Jones the clear GOAT.
@@andrewpierce1588khabob cried and never gave a rematch to conor, he knew Conor wouId put him in the grave. Conor made his career before he was an unknown-bum.
When I spoke with khabib he confirmed that he gave up fighting when his dad died as his mother and wife told him to retire because fighting is not permissible in our religion. (It’s forbidden to hit another person especially on the face). Hence why he will never fight again. He only fought to make his dad happy and to make his dream come true. What a legend.
Habibs still training day in and day out in his native Russia just not getting filmed doing it. Of course no denying that he isn't fighting or cornering or making weight ... but training he is. Connor does little gets more film and publicity on it. Also Connor fought Khabib and lost 2 of 3 post that. Habib defended twice successfully finishing his opponents and then took the gloves off when he was at top at that particular time. Connor is for pseudo fan following and ppv points. Khabibs all for legacy and principals. Big difference. He is as close as it gets to being the best representative of the sport and of his religion.
The amount of money he made bro he had absolutely no reason to do anything. The dude fought his entire life and now his father passed and it's time for him to fill that role
khabib left bcz he knew the end of his prime might just be around the corner. He wanted to go out with the undefeated title 29-0 also he didn't want to end up like tony ferguson
Yeah, but Khabib doesn't live like Conor. He's not attached to the money either way. He still lives relatively simple and spends his fortune building others. It was not about money for Khabib either way.
Khabib is not a type of guy to care about money or fame … He retired because he promised his mother & Because he had already reached at the Top … So others can get a chance…
If you keep fighting eventually someones going to knock off your pedestal. Volkanovski has list his last 2 fights. Im MMA you dont get to go out on a retirement tour in your latter years like in team sports.
McGregor fans once said : y'all know UFC because Conor McGregor.. Me : No kid, i know UFC since Brock Lesnar came to UFC.. And even the other know since Gracie.

Khabib retired to let islam shine and to make his mom happy. Those are 2 strong reasons that have nothing to do with money.
And neither would have been possible unless Khabib was well off and had already left his mark on MMA. Money was a factor but not the only factor.
His mom being happy is a strong reason. Retiring to let another man shine in your place is not a good reason at all. DC and Cain Velasquez are very close and they handled that the best way. DC dropped down a weight class and they both ended up becoming champions.

Khabib is the greatest UFC contestant of all time. we wont see another
mcgregor ran like a coward
Khabib 🫡❤️
I thought you tired of podcasts
AND THAT LAST SENTENCE SAID IT ALL
Such a simple point, most of us didn’t think of it…once you get to that point you’re not getting punched in the face anymore. But don’t expect to be called the greatest of all time then
if it was about the money, Khabib would've easily made much more if he kept fighting, but money wasn't the most important thing for him, family is, n I know that to a lot of people including Dana, that is something unfathomable!
Khabib retired undefeated... It's good that he retired so he doesn't ruin his record.
I thought Dana White said he is done with podcasts?
It's interesting how awarding islam can be for its servants
Dana basically ranting for not being able to squeeze more momey from Khabib 😂
Khabib being able to save enough money to retire while still healthy is possibly the best endgoal for any sportsman
Dana cant think beyond money, Khabib was in for legacy, he left because of his promise to his mother.
But of course these concepts of respect and love parents hardly exist for these folks.
connor lives in a yacht at wherever is warmest place is at that time
connor is living the life 😮
Thought Dana didn't do podcasts anymore... Poor Howie
The GOAT
It’s hard to get punched in the face when you’re sleeping in silk pajamas, I’ll tell you that much
Dana’s cheap shot after 35 seconds suggesting that Khabib’s money reduced his motivation and trying to draw a parallel with Conor is ridiculous.
Come on Dana! You’re just butt-hurt that he didn’t stick around to make more money for the UFC.
This also explains Dana’s over eagerness in declaring Jones the clear GOAT.
He smashed all his boys. Dana never promoted Khabib like he did Connor.
@@andrewpierce1588khabob cried and never gave a rematch to conor, he knew Conor wouId put him in the grave. Conor made his career before he was an unknown-bum.
@@beaualoevvI'm guessing you're still recovering from that loss when Khabib dismantled your guy. It's okay man it will get better over time.
Conor got dog walked by Khabib,,, how much COPEIUM are you on to think he'd even ever have a chance lol bloody casual.@@beaualoevv
@@nebleb6733 agree that Jones is the GOAT, but Khabib is definitely in the conversation and cannot be dismissed as easily as Dana makes it seem.
When I spoke with khabib he confirmed that he gave up fighting when his dad died as his mother and wife told him to retire because fighting is not permissible in our religion. (It’s forbidden to hit another person especially on the face). Hence why he will never fight again. He only fought to make his dad happy and to make his dream come true. What a legend.
But he can be a trainer, and I'd be curious to see how good he would be in that life...
AND THEY BOTH DESERVE ALL OF IT, THEY FIGHT SO THE REST OF US DON'T HAVE TO AND THEY FOUGHT WELL. I BELIEVE CONNOR WOULD HAVE FIGURED KAHBIB OUT !!!
never compare conor to khabib
it's like you're comparing poop to chocolate
And that's the reason why Dana will never pay his fighters boxing type of money, they'll have no drive to get beaten up every 6 months.
Habibs still training day in and day out in his native Russia just not getting filmed doing it.
Of course no denying that he isn't fighting or cornering or making weight ... but training he is.
Connor does little gets more film and publicity on it.
Also Connor fought Khabib and lost 2 of 3 post that.
Habib defended twice successfully finishing his opponents and then took the gloves off when he was at top at that particular time.
Connor is for pseudo fan following and ppv points. Khabibs all for legacy and principals.
Big difference.
He is as close as it gets to being the best representative of the sport and of his religion.
I think this was a very fair take by Dana
The amount of money he made bro he had absolutely no reason to do anything. The dude fought his entire life and now his father passed and it's time for him to fill that role
khabib left bcz he knew the end of his prime might just be around the corner. He wanted to go out with the undefeated title 29-0 also he didn't want to end up like tony ferguson
Yeah, but Khabib doesn't live like Conor. He's not attached to the money either way. He still lives relatively simple and spends his fortune building others.
It was not about money for Khabib either way.
Khabib the eagle 🦅 and Islam the king 👑
Both are Goat 🐐 Al hamdulillah Allahu Akbar ☝🏻
Khabib is not a type of guy to care about money or fame … He retired because he promised his mother & Because he had already reached at the Top … So others can get a chance…
Fight to get out situation your in, why Conor needs to fall back.
Dana deep inside would love to make Khabib loose bye threw everything at him. He still beat everyone against all odds
He said he wouldn't do any podcasts! 🤔🤔
khabib getting free properties is just lies... gifts like cars and watches he did get...
If you keep fighting eventually someones going to knock off your pedestal. Volkanovski has list his last 2 fights. Im MMA you dont get to go out on a retirement tour in your latter years like in team sports.
40 million I'd retire to.
Imagine khabib coming back to take the belt from islam chakamev.
Dana is great. he's more smart than most people will know. but he doesn't get Khabib. he just doesn't understand.
McGregor fans once said : y'all know UFC because Conor McGregor..
Me : No kid, i know UFC since Brock Lesnar came to UFC.. And even the other know since Gracie.
This is Dana being Dana saying whatever comes to his mouth. The man told you why he is retiring but this guy wants to put his own twist on it lol
He took the magic from Conor
Khabib didn't retire coz he got to "that level" of money. That's Conor.
And that's exactly why you keep them good and broke, Dana. Guys make money and don't wanna fight anymore.
nothing to do with money
To suggest khabib retired for monetary reasons is pretty disrespectful actually.
Khabib: I come for legacy! You came for Money.
Khabib goes with legacy and Money. Connor is wasted after that fight.
Thanks 👍 mashallah khabib 🇷🇺❤️🩹🇵🇸😊
I kove when americans go from mentioning countries to specific cities in a country to just a city because they dont know the country
