[ENG SUBS] Imamshafi Aliev on Usman in school and being Khabib Nurmagomedov's wrestling partner 

His just such a happy guy with such a pleasant demeanor... it's really refreshing to see russians portrayed in this way 🙏🏽

It’s good to hear him talking about Usman, and then laughing.

He's authentic , innocent grown up man .

Never fails to amaze me the praise and respect khabib's circle have for him. Hard to imagine how much they miss his father too. This team is real family, and a family full of killas

Happiest one in the family it seems.

Guy is a bear on the outside but a teddy bear on the inside. ☺

MashaAllah how much love, respect they have for each other, they love each others success and don't get jealous..true momins.. ❤️❤️

I love Shafi, he seems so sweet but deadly in the cage. I was dying at the Usman fighting story. I can imagine it all playing out.

This guy really seems nice 👍👍👍 but equally dangerous inside Octagon....

This guy look like a beast in a good way

This guy must be the nicest guy in Dagestan

The whole Dagestan are warriors! May their rein last long

imam shafi, mashaallah what a name ;)

Another relative of Nurmagomedov...Imamshafi Aliev

Imam Aliev..next champion

I love this team!!!

MA SHA ALLAH Love from your second homeland Pakistan

Great questions! Thanks for translation

This guy is another great person from the Dagestani team but very scary in the cage too.

Man I really appreciate your efforts to translate this very interesting interviews with future champions and great human beings.

cant stop laughing everytime he laughs

I love these stories about them. Especially the stories about their street fight. I want to hear all the stories of their street fight. Espcially Manap, I remember Islam telling a story about a school vs school. Need a detail on that. Imamshafi always looks so cheerful, the vidoes of him postd by his mates are always of him smiling or cracking jokes and laughing.

I love how knowledgeable the russian interviewer was....his fight knowledge...kept the focus on the fight side..not thrash talking or baiting for gossip..pure MMA..props!

humble person

I am having feeling Khabib wont''stop submitting his cousins in practices until they become champions.

Wonderful personality with a very lovely name. Thanks for the translation!

He takes you to deep waters😅

Superb interview guys, a really fun watch. Wasn't just the usual generic questions asked by most MMA interviewers. 👍 But i guess part of the credit also goes to Imamshafi (lovely name btw☺) for being an easy guy to interview.

Subhanallah. I love their stories

usman looks so innocent

Great video 👍🏼💪

keep posting #MMA behind teh story.. these mountain fighters have lot of stories to tell

he was always underneath khabib, but now 3 - 4 times he managed to get off ..precisely like khabib said what he going to do once retired "let other win off positions", unlike when he was still active, nobody could get the better of him. Still a beast that Khabib, and that what makes his team better

Another beast is on his way

maşşallah

all of them / team Khabib will be the champions in future, train with coach Javier Mendez and Khabib, had a sparing or wresting with 3 champions and the best fighter in the world ( Khabib, Islam and Usman)

I love how Russians use the word hooligan for troublemaker

Alhamdulillah 29-0 alhamdulillah inshallah islam makhachev will keep winning inshallah he will beat volkanovski alhamdulillah inshallah and still inshallah alhamdulillah Alhamdulillah

Are we sure Dagestan is not Sparta in ancient time?

😂😂😂❤

This guy must be some sort of rindaman in high school.

What??...another khabib clan??...I thought khabib Islam Usman Umar Abu bakar is already enough... scary

I find those guys from Dagestan very polite and humble like khabib, Islam, Usman… ! But khamzat is a such a rude and impolite and truly bad human being. Yes khamzat is not from Dagestan, but it doesn’t matter where he is from ! Too much steroids ruin the mind of some fighters specially Winstrol, Anavar, sarms they make people out of their minds! The USADA and the WADA have to run the drug test (anti doping test) properly, the way they are doing it, also in Sweden, they help unintentionally people to go away with it.
