My father gave me the greatest gift on earth! "He believed in me!"
Underrated comment
Gotta be a wise person to quote that. 👍
It didn’t take long to realize how good a person his dad was just by the way Khabib speaks and how he carries himself.
Jumping the cage to kick a coach? Making homeless man do push ups for money? Come on dudie.
@@jj691 conner punched an old man at a bar saadd
Ryan Joseph You’re a buster. Straight up.
Ryan Joseph stop being fanboy its not about what khabib or conor did. Ufc is show business most of the things we saw is fake. Khabib lost his father and you gotta be respectful. Stop being childish and face the real life loser!
Why are people even bringing up Conor? He said Khabib made homeless people pushup for money while filming and laughing. Conor is a jackass yes but just because he is doesnt mean Khabib isnt?
A man dies when he is forgotten but abdulmanap is a legend for many & for the Ufc community he trained so many fighters and his influence and legacy will last forever and will not be forgotten ❣️
Abdulmanap surpassed more than just the UFC community he impacted and will forever be a legend for the MMA community
When do you think people die? When they are shot through the heart by the bullet of a pistol? No. When they are ravaged by an incurable disease? No. When they drink a soup made from a poisonous mushroom!? No! It’s when… they are forgotten.

@@thiranosaurus Great quote... From One Piece...
how will he be remembered forever when the universe is finite?
@Average Mo meaning in time not size just to clarify, one day there will be no stars to create mass in this universe and all will collapse back to the singularity
To God belongs all sovereignty and everything, and to him is our return.
💯

Without the slightest doubt.

Rest in peace
I had special bond with my dad maybe half of what Khabib had. My dad passed away 9 years ago, i have a beautiful family, wife and kids successful job but i still feel incomplete. I cant even imagine what Khabib is feeling...
A piece of you went with him, but he put a piece of of himself in your heart when he passed away.
@erikcarrillo33 thanks broda
@erikcarrillo33 It sounds like you handled things the right way man. My dad left when i was 12, im 20 now and years have passed. But things never were the same. I messed up my a important part of my life (got involved with drugs and messed up school). I have a feeling one of the reasons that happened is because i forgot he was watching me as the years went by. The regret i feel can't be put to words, but i'm slowly picking my life back up.
Thanks Ariel and Daniel for this short interview.
I’ve never been upset about the deaths of strangers, but here straight tears come to my eyes and a lump in my throat. Rest in peace, Abdulmanap. You was a great person.
So where’s the people that were badmouthing Khabib for not coming to America to fight Tony during the quarantine?
America still 40.000 cases per day now
Edit : what i see now cases per day jump to 64.000
AlmostWins I’m pretty sure that number is exaggerated by the media to govern the people through fear
@@TheLike_Button yeah that's a little too high
@@TheLike_Button The american way.. "But they are the worlds best country!! Gods own!!" Yeah right dude
@@TheLike_Button there's over 300 million people living in the states I don't think those numbers are exaggerated
If my daughter comes back with a guy who’s half the man of dc, I’ll be happy. This guy is a legend.
Better hope the guy doesn’t like to eye poke
@@Ice-tz8jd he won't eye poke, but he'll poke.
Agreed man
Wrestling with DC to help him cut weight. That’s great What a guy
DC is such a good dude. Much love, good sir.
He was the Royce gracie of Dagestan/ Russia
Khabib? Cuz when it comes to his father, he'd be more like the Helio Gracie.
Probably more like Helio Gracie
I think u guys lost ur mind. The gracies ARE mixed martial arts. Inventing a combat art still used 2day is historic compared 2 being a great coach or fighter.
@@eshai27 are you brain dead??? you comparing a man who invented a sport with a man who was a great coach... but not HELIO GRACIE....
more like the cus d'amato
I still have a heavy heart having heard of this great man's passing, very sad.
khabib was gonna retire soon but his dad told him not to, ik he ain’t losing not one of his next fights
Alll i know is conor better not pop up again, khabib aint in no fkn moood for bullshiet from here on out
@@helpoj yeah, think he fights Tony next. Also crazy he never apologized for accusing khabib of lying (all because of his cousin? Lame asl) meanwhile he prolly was fr trying to take care of his pops
TONY
Roy Nelson I feel like you are the first person that has it all right. I agree with everything you said here. I also truly believe Gaethje is a completely different beast now. Is in enough to sure fire beat Khabib? I don’t think so but he can catch him. I feel like this Gaethje vs Porier now would play out differently.
@tha Dude there still is a good chance Gaethje smacks Khabib like he did to Tony.
Abdulmanap was an amazing man, always nice, humble and polite. Watch his and Khabib's awesome story and life in the episodes of Dagestan Chronicles on Anatomy of a Fighter channel...
DC is a genuine human being. That is also the reason why Khabib became such good friends with him.
So much respect Cormier speaking from his heart
Ufc should tribute him. I am sorry but i feel like they dont give him the credit he deserves (Khabib is the only one who talked about him), this man helped and changed the life of a lot of people who were nothing (Khabib, Islam, Zabit, Usman, Umar, etc etc etc) and changed the game
Ufc care about money. They even don't care about fighters leave their coaches or family.
Not zabit, he was not his trainer if I'm right
Wht.z he grew up with them so I guess he trained with the rest for some time until he found a new trainer.
@@abdoul8115 he used to train with Mr Abdulmanap before. There was a vid showing him training at the mountain together with the rest of Mr Abdulmanap's students.
@@annabravo4337 I just watched the video posted by RT sport, "special épisode of 'dagestan,...' where abdulmanap praise other russian fighters which he didn't train i guess and he talk about zabit. (it's at the end 15:30~)
Such nice words to say about his friend and his dad. Classy dude!
It's very poignant that the first UFC event to take place following the passing of Abdulmanap will be in Abu Dhabi where he cornered Khabib last September, the only UFC event he ever attended with his son.
He has actually been at other ufc events just by cornering other fighters
Cause usa didnt allow him come to his fights.
He cornered islam once at ufc 207/8 I think
I had the honour to be there live
@@dantdt4693
As noted literally 35 seconds in to this video....
May god have mercy upon him and forgive his sinsالله يرحمه ويسكنه فسيح جناته
Yeah DC should be father figure to Kabib.Get his career through unbeaten 🕊️
Respect to you guys for doing this! This shows real love and dedication for the Nurmagomedovs and MMA
Man. That’s tough. God bless them man. It’s tough to lose a family member.
Gotta love Dc REAL DEAL EVER THING THAT IS 100 that he says what he means
This is why kids need their fathers.
Peace upon his soul
Daggestan will miss him dearly
Thanks to brother DC, for the tribute to khabib's dad
My heart goes for habib , his family and all his friends.
Brother habib, God is great, and we are all destined to leave Earth and start the real journey.
Love you brother,
DC... Great dude supporting his friend.
DC is such a good human and for sure an amazing friend!
Ufc need to introduce Abdul manap on hall of famer
Come on. Im all for honoring people, but he’s not a UFC hall of famer.
Sal Vulcano based on?
Dena Wojt coaching khabib ALONE to be where he is now is enough to deserve hall of fame, let alone all of the other fighters in the dagestani region
srmh Still not changing my mind. As Ariel said, if there was a MMA hall of fame, he would be there. But not UFC hall of fame.
Those who put dislikes under this video - what's wrong with you?
REST IN PEACE MR NURMAGOMEDOV
Every time this dude (DC) talks, he lets you feel his class. Really a great guy.
Innah lillahi wa innah ilayhi ra,ajihoon peace be with you and your family khabib
Watch the video of Khabib being frustrated by reporters asking him the same questions over and again and then his face lighting up after he decided to just spend the rest of his time talking about his dad with them. He was like a little boy proudly talking about his superhero with the greatest joy.
May his soul rest in the perfect peace. Greatest father and son relationship
khabib's father did not only left lasting impressions on people he met, but also on people who watched his videos, who watched him on internet.....i cried when i heard that he died.....i felt like someone near and dear to me, a relative, died.........he is in jannah now....and i will meet him there
I hope this makes him even more stronger cuz we all know how much his father means to him. It can affect him really bad but, hope that won’t be the case!
Dc is such a real person that I love
Great words from a true friend DC
When I heard the news for the first time man it hit me hard.
Sounds like he was a great human being.
I feel so bad for Khabib because he was never shy about talking about the love and respect he has for his father.
What a blessed men and fathers to be remembered like this. I feel only respect and admiration for him.
He is a legend of mma sport
I'm so crushed for Khabib
Abdulmanap shoukd be an mma hall of famer
A father and a good family are the pillars of life itself
dc is a gem too. love dc xavier habib and all his family. habib and dagestani are honourable people.
Your a good man, DC.
My father is the most important person in my life. Knowing how I'd feel if I lost my dad, I can't even fathom what Khabib is enduring.
AKA look like a family this one of the best reason..respect👏
DC is pure class.
Heart warming, thx for sharing D.C.
What an extraordinary man DC is, what a respectful and great Champ he is, a true legend!
DC is the man. Watch over your Brother DC. I feel for Khabib. God Bless him and his family.
Beautifully said DC
DC is great man i love him
Abdul Manaf is a friend, father, and also the best trainer ever to the village and the Khabib team hopefully gets the best for all
Great man DC , you are very polite and humble.
Thank you DC
Dc, you’re a good man. I wish you all the best.
massive respect to DC...hes like khabib elder brother
DC always good big brother to Khabib
Big an sad sad loss to the mma community 😢 true example of a humble , loyal , respectful man
Two shining lights in the sport and two examples of championship caliber men in MMA DC and Khabib!
MMA Hall of fame Abdulmanap ♥️
You can tell DC has learned so much from Khabib and vice versa. So much respect in the sport brought by them it’s amazing and refreshing to see today.
He good people
This is the first time I agree with Ariel Helwani!
Man..I have got to stop cutting onions.
DC is the peoples champ man. What a legend and a nice guy
"one day we will all meet again"
DC big respect ✊ god bless all your family 🙏 Khabib My hart with you stay strong Brot
Dc is such a wonderful brother and role model ❤️ i hope him great luck and happiness 🤞
Дядя Абдулманап лучший! России его будет не хватать!
Can someone translate this please?
@@TonyHamiltonCk I said that Uncle Abdulmanap is the best. Russia will miss him.
Man the level of friendship between DC and Khabib amazes me every time. But this time I think it’ll be to a whole new level. Khabib’s dad wasn’t just a father and a coach to him, his whole world revolves around his dad and now he may lose the one thing he loved outside of his family, MMA. I think with DC having gone through the same thing earlier this year, their bond might just be what saves Khabib’s motivation towards MMA.
I'm sorry but there's absolutely no stopping Khabib now.
DC! I being a Khabib fan...I have huge respect for you and AKA coach. Love you man
I think they should make a tribute for Abdulmanap in the next event
Love all what you said DC understand it all respect it what a beautiful words!!!!!!!! By great legendary guy champion man.
I didn’t know DC your that good man that you stand by khabib N. Love love love you Dc your the real deal man I thank you on behalf of khabib N and his family
The Legend of Abdulmanap lives on
We love you D you the best friend anybody could have in times like this
Love DC. He's such a good dude.
I like this Ariel Helwani. Let's see more of it. Big ups to DC and Helwani for taking the time out to pay tribute to not only someone who helped shape the sport, but a great, great father.
"my champion, our champion, aka champion..."
Hespect
I really really respect and admire both of them..
My condolences to khabib, his family and the entire Dagestan region. May he rest in peace
DC..... you’re Khabib’s father figure now bc we all saw how much he loves you too!
DC is a REAL dude ... Just as Khabib is.
Love the pic of Jeff Reardon in the Expo's uniform behind Ariel...man that team caused me tremendous heartache growing up!
Dc and khabib are brothers from different mother
Subhanallah, just this morning a man who looks almost exactly like Khabib's father, albeit a bit thinner, walked past me
Respect for Daniel cormier
Atleast he got to see Khabib defend his title. Would have been a bummer if he never got to see his son fight live.
Wow Dc is a gentleman 👍🏻✊
The good ones die young
I respect Americans cause they pay respect when it is due. They recognize and acknowledge things.
A legendary person ...
انا لله وانا اليه راجعون رحمة الله عليك يا ابا حبيب
DC is such a class act,
