Kamaru Usman & Khamzat Chimaev interviewed by Chael Sonnen ahead of UFC 294 | ESPN MMA 

it was an honor to be in this interview, they actually paid Chael for his time

Its hazmat not hazmit brother

kamarma and haramza

😅

You mean Hosman and Chamaya? I haven't heard of these guys and one of them is gonna have a title shot after this fight, this is mind blowing

Cause he's dangerous. It's actually a compliment

& "Kamara" Usman lol. At least he screwed up both names in the interest of fairness.

He effs up so many different names "Blahal" Muhammad lol

I noticed that as well XD@@steveknick1978

Best one was calling Jiri “Gory Provider”

Ooze man

Chael DGAF 😅

Kamara ooze men and hazmat chilmaev

It’s KAZMAT actually.

You forgot Kamara. But respect for summing it up 👏

lol

Great comment haha😂

😂😂

Chael needs to stick to Chimaev. He can’t say Khamzat, no matter how much he tries.

I was like oh Jesus

Love how he leans into being insane lol

Yeah he winning on Saturday

he’s on the spectrum for sure

Fcking weirdo 😂😂😂😂

I agree, either with Brett or somebody else Interviewing them or the fighters doing It 1v1 Individually.

@@darkclaw1462BRETT lmao

​@@darkclaw1462you need a mediator or most fighters would just be shouting over eachother

with better wifi and mic next time

They barely even interacted 😂 I think they respect eachother too much to trash talk

This is my first time ever commenting on RU-vid, but this might be one of top favorite comments I've seen thus far

Chimaev not in the goat discussion. Many had Burns winning the fight. He just looks good against certain opponents, but didn't look so with his only elite opponent.

@@studioorigami7463he’s talking about Chael

@@studioorigami7463joke went way over your head . 😂

@@studioorigami7463go to sleep, then WAKE UP

6:22

His new beard coiffure looks like he’s auditioning to be the new ZigZag rolling papers man.

LETS GO BABY!!!!! KHAMZAT SMESH.. love ur channel alhamdulilah FEEEEEEL THE SMESH BROTHA/SISTA

😂😂

😂😂@@irreet

😂Borz gonna finish him in 1

he had too, burns fight made to focus little bit more and have that cockiness slowed down, maybe pre fight interview hype ofc thats the game

I think it’s the other way around

It’s his hardest fight to date, people forget how good usman was because of the fight with Leon but you have to understand that he was the number one pound fighter in the world at some point . Maybe moving to middleweight is his best option especially when you consider that Izzy won’t be fighting anytime soon and he is even contemplating calling it a day with his career. Because of how big usman and khamzat are to the ufc, I wouldn’t be surprised if the winner fights for the title next

I think is because he feel respect to take a short notice like that he dont feel it will be good to make trash talk even for promote

Khamzat grateful Usman took the fight

Stuff that nightmares are made off

His beard looks like a fake one Giant paint brush

Imagine seeing that guy in a dark alley.

He has a beard that would put an Amish man to shame

the way he looks at the camera 😂

they doing the same here...... they put in costa's fan base first reveal the true card.... leave the fighters in disbelief to "act" as if its a natural occurence ufc is a business that benefits both fighters, dana, and his match makers and his business.... its gladiator but everyone is blessed

khamzat makes me feel like he's carrying a knife

LETS GO BABY!!!!! KHAMZAT SMESH.. love ur channel alhamdulilah FEEEEEEL THE SMESH BROTHA/SISTA

LETS GO BABY!!!!! KHAMZAT SMESH.. love ur channel alhamdulilah

Who?

Yep he’s a legend for sure. Was the most avoided fighter ever back when he was upcoming literally NOBODY wanted to fight him until he won the belt! Absolute monster

Never heard of him

Will forever be one of my favorite fighters.

😂😂😂😂

Indeed lol

Chael giving him the full vocab and chimaev is like “😮” and then mumbles whatever he wants to

he understood the prediction question atleast and said that he doesn't do predictions cuz when its in the cage what happens is unpredictable

Lmao 😂

He ran through Leon as well lol..won their first fight and won 98% of their 2nd fight and lost a split decision in their 3rd.

He signed on to fight Nate Diaz after talking about killing everybody

I reacted to it on my YT page TRU UFC Page

Cannonier, Belal, Leon, Bo called him before.

​@@NaijaBullnah got beat at his own game in the first round. 1st takedown conceded and was controlled on the matt

He literally did nothing but juice! and cheat and hold up the division with the most rigged bouts UfC has ever seen

He’s a bit corny I think that’s probably the main reason honestly

This fight will win over a lot of people hating on him, win or lose

Idk either but I am a hardcore mma fan so I barely dislike any fighters. Usman deserves all the respect for what he has done. He had backed up all his talk and become world champ. He is a savage and I think he now wanna be 185 champ since Izzy is out. Corny sometimes but most of these ufc fighter corny don’t mean we shouldn’t respect and appreciate their elite level skills

it stems from his earlier days in the UFC, where he got a reputation for being boring ( lay and pray for decision wins) while being corny ( you know the 30% meme etc etc). But yea after becoming champ and now even more so after losing the title he has carried himself in a way that you really have no other choice than respect him. Dude took his losses like a man and then jumps on this short notice fight.

Shoddy journalist lol

@@Mcfc2Richhe does it on purpose 💀

@@jackreacher2095I don’t understand why it just makes him seem ignorant lol. I love when Ariel calls him out on it and he acts all confused

​@@plushpc5992it's hilarious lol and the fact that he's sticking to it face to face makes it even better coz the fighters know he's trolling

Kamara

He said it before that he respects Usman and he's always wanted to fight him since he was champion.

You could tell from cracks in Khamzat's voice

LETS GO BABY!!!!! KHAMZAT SMESH.. love ur channel alhamdulilah

Well Usman is a wrestler, a Muslim and recent long time champ who showed respect back. So plenty of reasons to be respectful.

​@@msmrreckoningquit spam coping it's pathetic 😂

😂

He sees the future and is making sure his 1 question ahead of anyone

😂🤣😂🤣

I can still hear a bit of scouse in khamzat's accent 😂

​@wajihbec1087 Hopefully, we won't see a sign of Till during 294

Agreed both were humble

Scared

Before Leon Edwards the old Kamaru would have said yes by KO

​@@tn5630grow up buddy

@@DearsonsUsman usually doesn’t give a prediction of how he’s going to win, except vs Masvidal 2.

Usman is going to get ragdolled

@Jake-oq2bq How can you call a dude that was lapping his division and beat a dominant champ overrated?

@Jake-oq2bqyou must’ve done some amazing things in your life to call Usman overrated after all he’s done. 😂

​@Jake-oq2bq here comes the usman hate train aka the Colby cuckold express

@Jake-oq2bq stop hating on a African man

Khamzat will smash usman 😂

​@@josephmills9205couldn't even smash Gilbert stfu 🤣

2 years ago....sure Usman wins

​@@josephmills9205why didn't he smash burns??

@@josephmills9205If Khamzat does the same as he did with Burns by not taking Usman seriously then it will be a long night for him. Usman is a total beast! And I think Usman will get the W.

Can’t say that… there were others that raised their hand to fight Khamzat.

@@chrisconnors9449but it was 🧢

​@@chrisconnors9449Not on a 12 days notice in Abu Dhabi. A whole different situation

@@carlossalamancafernandez7813 yeah you right about that.

Bo Nickal said he would’ve taken the fight but UFC didn’t want to have a cash cow vs cash cow situation lol

Easier to respect a man like Chael over Ariel

And also these guys are all pro, and have mutual respect for each other

When you come from a rough place like West Lynn you should respect the man, even guys in the favelas had a maid coming more than two times a week

Something felt off abt this interview and i think its bc they know they can't bs around ex fighters, having people like chael/dc interview is awesome

Chael "Hazmat" Chimaev ☣️☣️☣️ 😂

LETS GO BABY!!!!! KHAMZAT SMESH.. love ur channel alhamdulilah

Lool he cracks me up.

Looks like a villian.

Think that's just his weight cut mate

Usman gunna domesticate your wolf

@@dyfox3856 LMAOOO you better hope so cause if Usman lose or gets Completely Dominated you know everybody coming back to this comment to violate you right

@@dyfox3856lol they coming to violate you😂. I think these people take comments too serious

Mr psychology 😂😂😂

What a stupid comment

Did you use chatGPT to write the comment

@@uvwxyzero I mean just compare how Khamzat was in previous interviews or imagine how this would’ve been gone down if Costa was in Usman’s chair. Your satire is not funny or woke, you sound like a clown

LETS GO BABY!!!!! KHAMZAT SMESH.. love ur channel alhamdulilah FEEEEEEL THE SMESH BROTHA/SISTA

Isman took it on short notice

They get paid millions. Ill go out there in a dress and i have never fought. Respect? Lmao, fanboy dork

@@jonathankabasele985 they both did. khamzat was in camp but training for a completely different style of fighter, and usman like anyone at the top of the pile is always in shape and ready barring injuries

@@googlename3859 No, no, no. There's a big difference between being in camp vs just being in shape. It's nowhere near the same. I'm not making excuses for Usman, he was going to lose anyway - his knees are cooked.

@@iliilliliiliilliliiliillil9137 there is a difference, but again spend 2 months training for one guy and now you're fighting a completely different style not just man. so really they're both taking it on short notice, khamzat likely has a conditioning advantage right now but thats it

LETS GO BABY!!!!! KHAMZAT SMESH.. love ur channel alhamdulilah

He was always humble. He just didnt respect Costa. Usman always respected Khamzat and vice versa

He’s getting smashed! Three rounds he has no chance. Will walk through him

​@@etiennebunbury1285bet all your money on kumzat😅

Usman built different for accepting a fight everyone knows he’ll lose? 😂

yea never was a huge fan of usman but its clear hes always looking for a challenge and fighting khamzat instead of waiting for leon is very respectable ,and is easily one of the best welterweights of all time

if usman win im coming back to this comment@@pdboomin2

You don't think this was planned? Come on

@@ericbaum9286You think Olivera intentionally let someone split his eyebrow open? And Costa intentionally got a staph infection? Please take the tinfoil hat off 😂

You dont think at all do you eric?

@@ericbaum9286 you’ve had a shocker here lad.

LETS GO BABY!!!!! KHAMZAT SMESH.. love ur channel alhamdulilah

Well I think age and experience and the fact that his opponent isn't trash talking him are 3 factors.

The Gilbert Burns fight taught him that these are the top dogs for a reason

Gilbert burns break khamzat usman can finishd these guys completey

@@damienholland8103 i think his marriage too , his wife must have learned him that he needs to be humble sometime

It’s because they’re both Muslim.

If anyone calls the Usman W, "the biggest upset in UFC history" they're casuals and disrespectful

Yeah, it’s not like Usman is fighting a bigger dude. Both were legit the same division with Usman ranking much higher. The upset is if Khamzat pulls this off

​@SuperVladamere Yeah nobody will say that. Is Khamzat even the favorite?

Usman smoked burns and strickland lol no idea what's gonna happen

​@@seanmatthewkinghes a big favorite, just google the odds bro.

He carried himsef badly!! He was arogant, fake and annoying!!! He was also lying all the time…not the fan of Edwards, but I was so glad he knock him the f… out…hope Khamzat destroys him!!!

How did he get experience? He didn't fight anyone.

Really a scary lookin guy

​@@SwampOperatorhe really is

Pretty sure he said their names wrong but ok buddy lol

Really

He called Khamzat 3 different names: Hazzzmut, KamZAt, and Azmat

@@solaimanwahab5286I’m certain he does this on purpose

LETS GO BABY!!!!! KHAMZAT SMESH.. love ur channel alhamdulilah

Usman at 185 is too much for anybody I think. Khamzat needs a prayer.

Agreed, I believe he's going to win whether by submission or KO..don't see this fight going the distance..should be an entertaining fight regardless

Hamzat*

​@@fearlesslegend2073U didn't get it 😂

True, he didn’t say anything disrespectful

@BaldVolkyeah i saw the video

@@ladsd679 I can also vouch, I was Kamaru

A killer wearing a beard net, lol. WHY the fk is he wearing a beard net?

he's a weirdo

@@killakev9589most fighters are. You have to be to get punched in the face for a living. Also, cutting for the scale makes some of them act stranger than usual.

@@J13-h6y that is very true.. even fasting can change your mood and attitude

Looks like a tough guy act to me. Trying to look uninterested when we all know hes nervous for this one. Gilbert took his auta of invincibility

and yes,i liked my own comment

LETS GO BABY!!!!! KHAMZAT SMESH.. love ur channel alhamdulilah

​@@lucicaferaruno shame in that

I liked mine too😉

Usman will quit before this fight

no man , i think that he will actually try do exactly that during match, starting from the very first minute of the match

yeah, especifically in a 3 round matchup, this guys are prepared to fight 6 rounds if they have to @@ep073132

Yea Khamzat don’t waste no time dishing out punishment

you all bringing up burns is still wild. Burns even admitted when he fought Khamzat was the best time to fight him. Because, he was only going to get better given he was young and fresh to mma.@zenjigaming3342

I honestly think he will, though I agree he respects him. It’s his style, and to be fair that is hard to deal with for anyone even Usman. Will be a great fight can’t wait.

SCARY AT THE SAME TIME

​@@Polar-pencilno lmfaoo

nah he’s ready!!!

@@Polar-pencil how old are you?

4:13 as soon as you cut from usmans face .there is hazmat looking like a menace

We shall see im hype

And still getting names wrong 😭😭 lol 😂

@@jaymac7203 lol wh tf is huzmut ffs

LETS GO BABY!!!!! KHAMZAT SMESH.. love ur channel alhamdulilah

To say that Chael was the best part of this interview is total nonsense

Usman had humbled himself after the Leon defeats which is admirable. Khamzat seems to have been humbled ever since he got together with Islam and Khabib after they set him straight in private. It’s a good look all around.

Dead man
