@@davidkosiba624 Islam ain't got much on his clock either.

The problem is, nobody wants to fight outside the cage-but come on, Georgians? The last thing we’re afraid of is a fight outside. We’re born to fight-wherever, whenever, and against whoever. Merab doesn’t care who it is; he’s ready to go. Fighting is in our blood. Why is that so hard to understand? He said all true and he will prove lots of people wrong in January 👊
When is Islam n Umar coming to this show. You need ur connection with coach to get this one down for ur fans. Awesome work. Most hard working guy from down under.
Good luck coach; mma fans around the world eyeing on you guys for January. Hope everything goes well; as it’s tough sport and anything can happen on given day. Best wishes
I think to face Topuria requires a fighter who is clever and agile in using his feet or kicks, both to maintain distance and weapons to destroy Topuria, namely with hard and continuous "calf kicks" and occasionally to the chest and head, besides that he must also be good at boxing and fighting on the ground... And fighters who have the skills and abilities and fighting style are like "Usman Nurmagomedov" the LightWeight champion from Bellator or maybe "Umar Nurmagomedov" the No.1 contender in the bantamweight class 💪💪💪👍👍👍
I remember coach saying Islam is best all round fighter in the UFC and he also said perhaps ever in UFC and he got a ton of shit and mockery from fans. But now we all agree and sing his song now about Islam.
@@Born2winalways Bro, I'm sorry the education system in the UK failed you. If you can't tell by looking at Islam and Ilia which is clearly bigger on fight-night, then there's not much helping you.
When I see fighters state their walk around weights, it just makes me think. For Islam I think he doesn’t blow up so much because he has a hard cut. Ilia probably isn’t as disciplined in the off-season and has an easier weight cut since he’s young. So he gets balloons up.
Islam wins against arman and Oliveira again. Then moves up, wins 170 belt and defends it two times. 31-1 record 19 ufc win streak 9 ufc championship wins Two division defending champ That makes him undoubtedly the Goat and its not even close.
Merab just fought..and you're asking why it took so long for him to accept the fight...he fought 3 months ago and he just saw what happened to his buddy Aljo...give the guy a break...why did it take so long..he just fought in Sept...unreal..lmfao..some of these questions are unreal..asking who they wanna fight 2 people down the line....just airspace ...
Javier and Islam know what gonna happen if Topuria fights Islam. The best boxer in the UFC who claims his grappling and wrestling are better than boxing. Jeeees.
Javier's a great coach , but calling him a genius and not understanding that Mehrab sees Umar as a great threat and was reluctant to face him cause he wants to hold onto his title is crazy
I didn’t like the last 30 secs. It is typical very busy father working hard and providing for his family but the time his the family is wasted away! Hope he gets to make up and have a good time with his family
No Javier Merab is not intelligent. He literally wins his fights by spamming takedowns and failing most of them. He wins by cardio. Outside the ring he keeps saying and doing dumb things.
Cutting weight is a part of Sambo...Islam's use to cutting from near 200 lbs Makhachev, aged 31, also faced a daunting task of significant weight loss. Starting his training camp at 191 pounds (or 13 stone 6 pounds), the talented fighter was confronted with the challenge of shedding nearly two and a half stone to meet the 155-pound limit (or 11 stone). His coach, Javier Mendez, shared insights into the arduous process, emphasizing that Makhachev's typical weight two weeks before a fight hovered around the low 80-kilogram range, equivalent to approximately 185 to 184 pounds. “At his top form, when he's in great, great shape getting ready for a fight two weeks out, Islam is in the low 80s, 185, 184 or somewhere around that range,” he said. “But when he comes to training camp, he's like 191.”
om the official weight of the ufc Topuria is the #6 fighter out of 170 fighters that gain more weight 20% he enters the cage weighting as a welterweight, that definitely makes a difference that's why he looks so powerful, but he is a legit weight bully, I highly doubt he does it without PEDs. I hope Charles humble him
"Walk around" weight is such a silly, irrelevant term when it comes to assessing an athlete's size. All it refers to is how much bodyfat one adds when not competing.
Yeah for a second. That doesn’t mean anything if you can’t control them on the ground and score with strikes and advances to dominant positions. Anyone can anyone down in mma, there’s a lot to watch out for. You can catch someone by surprise, it’s what you do with the takedown that matters. Illia subbed Bryce, who is an excellent grappler.
He said in his doc that if he take him down on the last minute of the round he will rest on the ground the rest of the round cause it wasnt in danger. That was part of the strategy. (All said before the fight)
Javier Mendes never mentions Cain Velasquez anymore he forgot about him when the Russian's came to the gym Cain was the first UFC chanpion at aka show respect to the person that put your gym on the map.
@ bro Jalen turner is just taller. He does not have more muscle mass than Islam. Do you have eyes? And Charles is not the same size as Islam. Islam is clearly more dense than Charles , look at islams fucking back & just his stature in general. Charles is way more lean than Islam. Charles also used to make 145. Islam could never make 145 in his life. He shouldn’t even be at 155.
@NickisZexuhJr are you insane??? What makes you think this?? Islam has never missed weight a single time in the UFC and Charles has missed weight against Gaetchje.
He said in camp. Walk around inbetween camps is obviously grazing 200. Paddy pimblett blows up to 205lbs+ a few weeks after making 156 for his fights. Gaethje, BSD, Jalin Turner etc walk around 195ish so why is it such a damn big deal that islam does and he looks no bigger in the cage than the LWs he's fought over his career.

Javi does not look under control anymore. He speaks like he is not well informed probably due to his absence from islam and umer’s camp He is much more focussed on usman in the UAE

Islam needs a personality transplant and then he'll become a complete fighter.
You do know your stuff godang it.
Not sure if javier has even spoken to team khabib in at least a year, he just does these grifter interviews
Why do you say that?
This host is so biased against Merab and before with Ilia 😂 until he shut him up. Maybe he hates Georgian fighters 🇬🇪
Insiders and professionals like coach Javier k ow Merab is not scared and something else is going on. Merab went through the hardest path to the belt, cleared out whole division. 4 champs.
Yet common fans still dont fully understabd or appreciate his skillset. They think he is just a takedown mashine 😂 If you k ew the fight game you would know that Umar is actually and underdog in this fight
Merab dumb not to fight Aljo. He could of been champ years ago. Umar wins he gets to be champ after few fights. Smart af.
