This dude heart rate probably never changes lol jeez

"I want people to remember me as a person, as a good person"🔥 How can you not love this guy

“I don’t see no Australian’s at world class wrestling competitions, sorry but this is true “ 😂😂😂

0:17 - How has camp and Australia been since you’ve arrived? 1:02 - Why did you want to specifically fight Volk in his home country? 1:32 - Do you believe that Alex is the #1 best fighter in the world? 1:56 - Can you remember another fighter other than Volk who called you out for a fight? 2:37 - Are you happy about how this fight has been promoted? 3:43 - Islam’s activeness. 5:30 - Do you love this sport or do you just consider it a job? 6:18 - Will you take a break during Ramadan? 6:40 - Did Islam spend over a million dollars on his training camp? 7:44 - Bobby Green. 8:48 - Possible welterweight opponent? 9:58 - Do you stand by your comments that Australians don’t have any wrestling? 10:23 - Do you believe that you could compete with Volk on your feet? 11:10 - How does Islam want to be remembered? 11:56 - More on Islam possibly moving up to Welterweight. 12:52 - What was the conversation with Khabib like when discussing his interest in moving up to WW? 13:47 - 19:58 (Russian) 19:59 - On being recognized everywhere he goes around the world.

Bobby Green: "Islam is a cheater" Also Bobby Green: *Suspended by USADA*

His answer the Australians don’t have wrestling question had me dead 💀 he’s too honest 😂😂😂

For everybody who didn't understand the Russian part, about Volk, he answered questions about how Volk could give him trouble, how he prepared mentally for this and what training methods he used in order to be ready for Volk. He also answered a question about Dana mispronouncing his surname and why he doesn't care about it, and then goes on to answer on how involved Khabib is in this fight and the training camp with instructions over the phone, just like Abdulmanap was. The last part is just about the magnitude of this fight, what it means to have a Number 1 vs Number 2 P4P, his reaction to Khabib's hall of fame induction at the covington fight and his thoughts on Power Slap.

He said as soon as I stop getting better I’m going to stop fighting. That is pretty awesome

The man who is very calm and confident is the most dangerous.

His English has really improved 😀 even just a few years ago he would've struggled without a translator. This is gonna be an awesome fight.

Islam is so calm, relaxed, and confident . He's so calculating and has no self doubt what so ever . He had a smile that lasted a whole interview with Volk. In Islam's mind, he has no doubt hes the best in the world

"I training hard, that's why he feel the power!" 🥶

Funny how maclife didn't include the question where he roasted conor 🤣

He can afford to be so calm, because he's trained so hard in life and has all the facets of the game covered. He earned his chill.

Bro talk like a philosopher . Love this guy.

Sometimes i don't understand why people be hating on this guy

This made me respect Islam a lot more actually. Asked him what he wants to be remembered for and he responded by saying he wants to be remembered for not only being the best in the octagon but also his character outside of it. I'm glad he wants to be a role model for kids.

McCrippled fans who turned into Charles “die hard” fans a few months ago who turned into Volks “passionate” followers two weeks ago talking about rugby and 200lbs want this KING to lose so bad 😂😂

Fuck his English is so good now, 2 years ago he couldn't barely speak a lick. Amongst all his training and travelling and knocks to the head, he still has found the time to become fluent. It's insane.

Respect to this man. What a great representation of himself he gave.

It's not that am good, it's because I trained hard all my life!

The more he speaks, the more I like him.

BRO Islam is so chill! He’s that friend that always sits quietly and is always polite and says please and thank you even tho you’ve been friends for years lmao

Goin to be a great fight I love both these guys were just truly blessed to witness this war

Bobby Green is just mad that he got smoked my Islam

"Striking, wrestling, grappling i'm the best fighter i think" with other words "I'm the most complete fighter in the world" 🥶💯

This guy is Rated as a fighter and a person 👌💯

It's MMA Anything Can Happen🤝 Good Luck Both Of You 🤝🔥

The Mac life should invest in audio tbh ASAP

this man is dangerously calm.

13:45 *Russian Translation* Q: They say in your fights your opponents feel your power and are surprised about how strong you are. While feeling that they broke under the pressure, what is your opinion? Can Volkanovski surprise you in terms of his physical strength, will it be tougher to broke him mentally and physically? Islam: You know I am already prepared that he will be physically stronger (than other opponents) and I don’t want that to be a factor in the fight. We expect him to stand up, spinning around and move a lot, we prepared for all cases.” 14:28 Q: In one of your interviews you mentioned that if you would fight McGregor, your fans wouldn’t appreciate it, how come?. Do you not think that after the fight with Volkanovski you generate such a hype, that you need a fight like that? Islam: I don’t want to say that I do not need that fight with McGregor but currently between me and him there’s a huge gap (of skills). I don’t know, I guess people want to see real fights, real contenders who deserve on actions and not on words. But when the UFC will offer me that fight I will not decline it. As the Champion, I just wait for the call and accept every fight. 15:18 Q: When Dana White forgot your name on a press conference, Hasbiks reaction was that they try to treat you the same way they did with Ankalev. Can you calm him down and guarantee that this will not happen? Islam: He (Dana White) forgets my name because it is hard to pronounce it. It’s the same thing with DC, he still is not able to pronounce it and asks me especially in interviews whether he say it right. For them our family name are hard to spell out, there some letters in russian they can’t repeat and that’s why they can forget. There is nothing bad about it. 15:57 Q: So it will not happen? You don’t have the feeling the UFC want your defeat? Islam: how I should feel that? Of course not. 16:12 As far as I remember Abdulmanap Nurmagomedov, when he was unable to participate in your fights, he gave advises to your cornermen threw messengers. It is possible that Khabib will do the same? And all in all, how many contact is between you both? How many messages you receive from him daily? Islam: We are in a chat group with Khabib and Zuba (Tsubaira Tughunov), for example this morning he asked about our weight. He thinks Zuba is too heavy right now. Every morning he cares about us, asking about weight, training, who we spare… We are constantly in contact. Everybody is worry about him leaving the sport but that is not true. He just stopped to fly. When he would fly with us to Australia he would leave his family again for month. But he still worries about the whole team. 17:35 Q: is there any chance he corners you in the fight (like his father did) ? Islam: I don’t think so. But it’s possible. 17:42 my colleague brought recently 10 arguments that your fight with Volkanovski is the biggest fight in mma history. What do you think? Is this fight the most important for the sport? Islam: from a sports aspect and by the skill set of competitors it is the greatest fight. There was nothing similar in the past to that. There never fought #1 and #2 PFP against each other. The PFP ranking is real. People compare the fighters in a whole, not only grappling, ground game and stand up to set the list. 18:43 Q: Nobody asked you about it. There is a famous meme of yours from the Masvidal-Covington fight. What lead to your emotions? Islam: There was nothing special. We came there to join the ceremony for Khabib (Entering Hall of Fame). We waited for 7 hours so I was a bit tired of sitting there. 19:20 Currently UFC promote and push the power slap contest. In Russia was a same project. What is your opinion on that? Don’t you think the contest is quite dangerous for the health, even more than mma? Islam: I believe 100% that this is dangerous for the health. I don’t want anything to do with this and overall I think slaps humiliate the masculinity.

We may differ in some aspects like relegion and the worldview as a whole. But he and the whole Khabib Camp seem to be funny and good people. Hope Alex can do better than Charles and maybe pull it off somehow

Islam smoked him like a joint. Bobby green a clown 😂

This guy just reminds me of Ippo Makunochi from the anime Hajime No Ippo. Honest, dedicated and never cocky.

Nothing but respect. Let’s look at the Nurmagomedov legacy, the results the types of people this level of respect has brought to the light! This should be an example to all human beings and especially parents teaching the next generation of our planet the values, and dedication it takes to achieve. Hats off to Islam ✌️😇💪

Been waiting for this one

He’s seems calm and confident hopefully he wins

Father of Dagestan MMA Abdulmanap Nurmagamedov, this man's legacy will live on forever he was the beginning, many champions will come from his teachings but he is a treasure of Dagestan, a champion himself a kind heart and a physical and mental work ethic unmatched, his students are his reflection, I was not lucky enough to meet this man but i have a deep respect and love for him. May Allah swt bless him with the highest rank in Jannah. Ameen.

I think he'll knock Volkanovski out cold. He seems determined and his standup is underrated

According to Bobby Green, Drew Dober is also a cheater 👁️👄👁️

“We spent how much we need” humble human 💯

The intriguing thing about this fight is both are aiming to be the goats of this sport and the person that wins this fights might be on their way to be the GOAT

Looking forward to this weekend, backing Volk all the way, but will definitely be a tough night for both fighters.

This guy is so humble, and have such discipline that is impossible not to love him! Islam will conquer UFC. I feel so inspired, that I will leave everything behind for a chance to learn what's real life is, around these guys! That is my dream!

If he wins he’s going to be pound for pound for a few weeks then they will push Jones to 1 just watch how the brass works!

What an electrifying personality. May he be champ for years, it will be great for the sport.

“Never do something bad” lol. I’m with it tho. Think he’s saying be a good role model. Impressive to answer questions in another language.

WTF is up whith the static on the mic's.

What’s up with the audio quality. Constant buzzing sounds in my headphones

This guye is crazy.. he is a human being machine..physicly and mentaly He will brake and set much records

“Never do something bad” Flying superman punch on Dilon Danis’ face 😂😂

Oh look it's... this guy. It's him, it's the lightweight champion.

Respect fulll English!!!!❤️🔥🔥 fighters need to realize that if they want to get bigbiggggg in this business english is important

Accusing them of PEDs is a huge way to show jealousy.

2 humble guys with excellent characters going at it, I love that they are both are going to get paid very well, but it sucks that one of them is going to take an L.

Great fan of both fighters Alexander and Islam. Both are humble and well spoken. It is a pity one of them has to lose... that said, it is going to be exciting.

Aint gonna lie think we could see a giga chikadze kattar moment with the volkanovski makhachev fight ppl were believing giga would piece kattar up with them liver kick's but we all know how that ended

im not like bobby green, im not drunk, do some bad stuff 😂

The fact he mentions the weather and jet lag adaptation is pro to me, a lot of fighters, even champions don't do this and lose sometimes because of it, another mention would be altitude.

He is so passionate and exitet an fun 2 listen too he should have podcast 😩

If it’s close either way imo, I think it credits a rematch fr

Islam big love from ethiopia i named my son islam do u have entrance music....something motivated u...

Bobby on steroid cant even win fights. I fell asleep watching him tap.

Like too see him fight khamzat for welter belt

heey man seen Islan talk about been a good person when remenbered, make me like him even more, I wish volk get this but if islan make it up lets go , he is in a good way he deserv evething he wants , mashala

Islam roasting Aussie wrestling was the funniest part LMAOOO

The only way UFC would get anything close to Khabib vs McGregor 2 is if they let McGregor fight Islam if he beats Chandler

Islam you are the best, what a pure heart soul you are. May allah bless you with everything brother

I like both guys. They good men. I hope Volk can make this a competitive fight and actually push Islam

Future interpreter after his fighting career.

Finally, the journalist ask good questions,, i love it

My god this weekend is going be awesome

the audio sucks on this clip i thought my headset was going out

That’s the pound 4 pound king right there.

Respect

Islam is so chilled and relaxed always when .he speaks 😂

why the audio always so bad on these

IN SYA ALLAH 🤲

That first guy asking him how he felt about the talk online regarding promotion... Wasn't it Islam who first mentioned it?

I think I'm more excited for this fight than Khabib vs Conor.

Gotta love this guy. This is gonna be a war

Is he gonna be double champ if he wins this fight ?? So like the division of alex ??

I do like Islam and his brother not for their fighting skills but how they are as a person. Not fake or pretending to be a certain personality to get likes or so. Very disciplined, calm focused. That being said I also like Volk too, think this is gonna be a good fight and come to a decision with Islam takin it. But I also think that Volk can win too if he plays he's cards right.

"I No take Bad things... Bad thing Fed to me by Camp": Islam Makhachev

Running a 18min 5k is really impressive lol

What is fight date

We love you Islam 👊 you are the best UFC fighter! Our pound for pound king 🥳

It's gonna be a classic 👌

Yo he just said Alex don’t have much to lose on this fight do you guys not realize how cold this man is 🥶🥶

He changed that subject REAL QUICK

18:30 5k damn boy 😁🙌

❤❤❤❤❤

Anybody else had a weird cracking sound through the interview

I want him and Conor to win 3 belts make history

This guys grasp of English in a short period of time is pretty god damn impressive

That heat getting to him it's average 35 degrees Celsius

People will just believe anything green also said fiziev takes things clearly wrong

Very humble

as someone who hates islam watching him over the past week, hes grown on me dudes so humble and straight up

The charisma this guy possess sells the fight alone
