Khamzat Chimaev UFC 279 Interview: Fighting Nate Diaz and reaction to Edwards vs. Usman | ESPN MMA 

💯

@@hmsp7799 i've been on this video for only a minute and i've seen you complain about the line in several comments. give it a rest.

@@TyFRFX lmfao

He’s married we’ll never see his wife

McGregor did recently say the same thing when Usman lost an his daughter was crying in the crowd lol nothing new

It's a money fight for Chimaev.🙄

I hope Diaz wins

@@Bojan-tg2vk he is making less than Diaz

It's going to be a great one

@@tylerj3088 Still going to make more than he has in previous fights by a substantial amount. Mcgregor was a money fight for diaz he still made alot more than previous fights while earning alot less than mcgregor. It's kinda the making of a star from what we have seen :)

With him it’s more arrogant than competitiveness.

There nothing competitive about that stupid statement

@@hoptoit5910 🙄always one of you bruh😂can’t just respect someone

@@hoptoit5910 It’s more cute than anything 😍

@@hoptoit5910 arrogance would be inflating one’s own abilities or achievements. Khamzat hasn’t said anything that he hasn’t already done or would do, so it is confidence by definition

One is a warrior other a drug addict

Why didnt u respect him before this interview?

@@vincentkennedymcmahon50 khamzat does drugs?

@@vincentkennedymcmahon50 just weed lmao

@@silverking6970 I am very sure Khamzat does not. Will see on fight night who takes weed.

if they tell u to put a mask on, u do it.. if they ask u to inject whatever x3 .. u do it... thats his mentality aswell.

immigrant mentality

It's the mentality of a man but I don't blame you because being a man now days seems like this superhero warrior type of thing. Trial and error, it's the foundation of human development.

@@kislayberi immigrant mentality is a real thing too. When you have no safety net, no family down the road or anyone to rely on but yourself. Creates a different type of person.

@@kislayberi if you don't have that in your mind, little challenge, depression kill

Brett is the worst interview

Number one contender. Willing to get the UIC belt from Helwani.

Ikr? That’s ARIEL’s job

@@bidenistrash6574 brett is one of the better interviewers

@@AliKhan-sy9jy Ari is a Hew, not a company man like Brett... Brett is Ari's replacement, no joke.

Noble savages from the past didn’t stand behind 10 guys calling another man a p*ssy

He sounds like Bane from Batman 🤣

You’re just a young ignorant bandwagon fan he isn’t anything special and def not a special breed

They were all horrible, nasty, sociopathic, evil, individuals who had the history books rewritten to make themselves look better

He have a North Viking mentality

hahaha same xD slap slap slap

that ish had me dying

Same😂

Yeah at 9:50 into the video, that was Halarrious.

Well said brother

Absolutely true. You can see He's slowed down a bit, but he still takes on the Absolutely hardest guys. Ngl I am a little concerned about the damage He's about to take

Agreed. I think if anyone can do it, it's Nate. I think Nate could beat Gilbert and Gilbert almost beat Khamzat. Either way I'm a Diaz fan for life, and I really like Khamzat too. Gonna be a banger for sure.

Diaz got his cheeks busted by Josh Thomson, RDA, clay guida, masvidal, Edwards, the list goes on and on. this time will be even worse.

@@jakethesnake4971 ikkjmk

Look at dude lips you can tell he sucks 😂

I saw him daily irl, seems cocky af nowadays. Hope someone humbles him 😴

@@nolifedmyaway what did he do?

@@nolifedmyaway Real question is: what did u do about it?

He is more humble than the dagestani fighters

*Finally a big meal for the wolf* 👍🏻

He’s overrated hype job he’s not impressive at all

I point that too 😂

The point is if he do that , all his cardio is going to be out😂

New world record

@@DDJReacts yeah because a ref will let Nate eat 50-100 unanswered strikes

to get the record hahaha 💯

😂😂😂😂

Nate doesn’t understand Nate.

and he's not far off himself

Nate has had the longest career in UFC history. Maybe more people should take the time to understand Nate.

Gonna be over quick

@@youngpullup6797 I hope not. I wanna see him pick Nate up and drag him around for a few rounds. Send Nate out speechless.

do you know what humble means lol fames already gone to his head

Can you please do humanity a favor and go watch a dictionnary for the first time of your life and go check the word "Humble" ?

@@jameswalsh2454 Khamzat is very humble. Stop confusing humbleness with confidence.

Ofc.. especially when English is one of most complex language to learn

English is really not a tough language to learn

Darren Till will get there one day

Just cuz someone doesn’t speak English doesn’t mean they’re not smart.

@@fasting14_ English is one of the easiest languages when it comes to phonation.

if only Masvidal wansn't such a sore loser and did that stupid thing, we would be seeing that fight right now...

It’s likely, considering Edwards vs Usman 3 will probably happen first.

Both are my favorite but would love to see him against masvidal

That be amazing 👏

@@adityarawat1245 nah he would get way more credit if he beat Colby

Humble? 🤨

Humble lmaoooo

It’s amazing that he was poor, homeless, and worked his way up so fast. That’s champion material.

@@ryanb8736 he learnt it all from McGregor's story. McGregor totally made the sport top tier ❤️

@@poatan6304 you’re boutta get some haters soon for saying that

@@poatan6304 McGregor wasn’t poor. That was a fake made up sob story to sell to fools like u who believed it. Both of McGregor’s parents had decent jobs and they lived in a middle class household. He wasn’t a millionaire but he was far from poor. Khamzat on the other hand truly was and didn’t need a fake made up story like McGregor.

@@gregtavarez3322 "I am not afraid of the Internet!"- Dana White

Ultimate Slapping Champion

I wish we see a slap contest I wish khamzat takes him down and starts to slap him 💀💀

it’s the scary part he enjoys it

he got trippled vaxxed and wore a mask .... thats the type of GUY he is

Look at how Khamzat helps homeless people. He often helps in food kitchens. He knows how it is, because he was homeless and didn’t have money for food.

The more i see of him, the more I think he’s probably a good dude. Especially when the schtick is off. Despite what he says, he speaks fantastic English.

@@TheErikrust he doesn’t have a shtick he really feels like that

@@SeanLivesTrue. I was referring more to the screaming “kill everybody” thing. I’m sure he feels like he can whoop anyone, but it’s nice to see his more human/humble side.

Calm down bro

That was so funny man💀💀

😂😂😂

haha funniest part

Lol when I read this before watching the video I thought he was talking about the voice in his head shouting those things, maybe it is!

bro just a human being fr

They don’t hate khamzat, they hate his fan base. Khamzat is legit and more than likely going to be champion, but the fans act like he’s beaten the best of the best and has been champ for years.

He’s just another mark.

@@Squirt69 he beat number 2 did not wrestle stood toe too toe and traded

Totally agree watched Diaz since wec till now and will continue but yeah at the same time got love Khamzat

@@davidbosnia4141 Who told you he was number 2? - diaz

exactly.

Yeah because Nate wants another dogfight type of exchange. Didnt favor kamzat against Burns

The burns fight was a bit confusing for khamzat because he wanted to finish him but the coaches were screaming for him to stick to the game plan and just jab

@@craik7 imagine trying to ko Nate.. even worse

@@craik7 i love how fanboys always find an excuse

Make sure to site your quote...-Cumshot Chimaev

4 fights gtfoh

@@ThatFoolJoe209 24-0 in just his pro wrestling career and 11-0 in mma. 35-0 mixed pro fights. Don’t forget Khamzat third fright was up against the legendary combat Sambo warrior named Ikram Aliskerov. Aliskerov was undefeated and his only loss is to Khamzat. Khamzat knocked him out cold. It was such a precise knockout. To this day, Aliskerov only loss is to Khamzat. He’s also 185. Let that sink in. He’s also phenomenal! I honestly did not think Khamzat would beat someone of that caliber. Aliskerov is one of Khabibs friends. Nobody seen Khamzat gonna win that fight. That’s why Khabib said he was gonna be hardest guy to beat once he gets to UFC. He’s never seen anyone do that to Aliskerov. So I understand you are just a casual watcher, so I figured I would school you in on some hard cold facts. When you say 4 fights, you sound uneducated, because you are so far off with reality. You are a Nate fan boy because you smoke. Your name says it all. Hopefully you can read everything I wrote and understand it.

@@ryanb8736 Totally agree with you some people don't understand khamzat is a very top level fighter great in all aspects of mixed martial arts. His fight with Aliskerov was as good as advertised and that upper cut knockout was one of the cleanest knockout i've ever seen so precise and technically placed. All respect to Nate diaz he's a legend in this sport but Khamzat's gonna eat him

@@mmacrash7741 Exactly! I’m glad you seen what I see. I watch Brave fights too, to see what other talent is out there. I knew Aliskerov was Khabibs close friend and was watching him. I actually had no idea who Khamzat even was at time of watching that fight. He was a complete nobody. He only had three mma fights under his belt. I said the whole time, Khamzat will never take down Aliskerov to wrestle on the ground. Then all of a sudden Khamzat throws a well executed strike and it lands so dead on. I was is total shock. When they announced he was coming to UFC shortly after that, I said all my money is on him. Khabib even said that Khamzat is gonna be huge trouble for UFC fighters. Khamzat beat Khabibs friend. Total domination. Aliskerov is thinking about coming to UFC at 185. He’s gonna be very dominant too. A rematch with Khamzat will be in the works.

Lets goo 🇸🇪 he will definitely win

@@recko800 He is chechen to the bone, not swedisj even if he has double citizienship, please stop 😃🤚🏻

@@mrpopo-sf3ke He is born in chechnya yea, but proud to be Swedish aswell, he is pretty much raised in Sweden and started his career there.

@@mrpopo-sf3ke He's ethnically Chechen, but he lives in Sweden, and he fully embraced it. His Caucasus war mentality with old Viking is a good mixture, tho Sweden largely modernized to carry on that Viking tradition..

@@mrpopo-sf3ke why do you have to be like this?

while wearing a paddy pimfflet bib 🥘paddy what ? pradddy pripmllit

Cold breakfast then. Lovely

No kidding man. I'm not some tough guy but most fighters don't really scare me. If I ever came across khamzat I'd be quite intimidated. Even as a fan I'd be hesitant to approach him for a picture. Dude is ice cold and likes hurting people

@@nope5326 even though he had the slug fest with burns I still feel he’s got that unbeatable heart to him. Can’t wait for the fight vs Diaz

I think when you train that hard, for 4-8 hours a day, every day, you’re generally gonna be pretty chill in your downtime. lol. I love Khamzat

@@Wanker527 I do too. He's not a hype train like people say. Dude is a savage

@boss sauce lol name one boring fight

First he convince usda he's good to fight after being hurt by masival apparently lol

Colby already been ducking Leon and Burns for years he is good at fighting washedup fighters

I think they will wait and let colby fight him when he gets the belt

Hahaha Colby retired , Nate’s winning this fight

@@john-ch3en he fought Lawler, usman, Woodley and then usman again. Those are all hard nights out

Coming from the guy who claims to be a gangster while stealing Nate Diaz mentality dudes a clown

@@SonOftheBattleCry Your comment literally makes no sense. Much like Diaz when he speaks.

Bro burns almost beat him. Dont get too excited, cos there's harder fights than burns waiting for him.

Why are you khamzat bandwagon fans so delusional he hasn’t shown anything impressive or even championship qualities he got almost finished by burns lmao

Just wait and see......

he is also a coward who was afraid of a cold and wore a mask everywhere and got tripled jabbed... cant have it both ways

💯

Terrible match up. & Nate Diaz doesn’t do Promos

They don't want to spend a ton of money on build up on the off chance Nate might stand them up on fight night

It's impossible to build anything up for this fight. Nate Diaz hasn't won a fight in years, is 37 years old, it's his last fight in the UFC, Khamzat is a straight killer, young and hungry. This makes no sense, it's shameful for the UFC to even make this fight.

Nah it hasn’t people just don’t care abt this fight

@@sw0re0 but everyone is gonna still tune in

He owns BRABUS G-WAGON. He wears Gucci, Versace. He likes fancy things. You can tell more about people by their actions not words.

I'm not saying he's not helping people, but he definitely owns fancy things 👊

@@spiffyspiff9707 well of course he’s going to have a few nice things. He’s still going to help others around him, as he should

@@markd9580 "I love how he doesn't want a big house or fancy cars" you said that

@@shabbaranks7968 nothing gets by you does it…

did you watch the video or not. he said he respect all fighters.

Nearly all fighters respect all fighters... You have to in order to train, the moment you stop respecting them you get caught in training. He's a lifelong wrestler he isn't a street fighter. He knows what grinding feels like.

He actually said warriors respect warriors

He has said many times he loves and respects all fighters. But he says inside the cage he doesn’t respect anybody that’s where the war begins. But outside of the cage he respects all his opponents.

Gilbert showed khamzat he’s still human

Thus guy is right, who dosent love a good Cumshot

@boss sauce what are you doing on this interview then

@boss sauce wrong sport for you i guess, try golf they are not that controversial

@boss sauce you seem like you are a miserable person. Go watch tennis. A sport your pace.

@boss sauce So he can’t read but you can’t even understand clear English 😂

so u like the fact he folded like a beach chair , wore a mask and got tripled jabbed? cool.

Thanks for telling us about how u feel. Who cares?

I just hope he doesn't paint his fingernails and keeps that grit unlike somebody else that's a champ.

That’s what happens when you grow up with nothing in a war country.

@Boosi Boosi Khamzat won. Keep crying.

He looks like a crazy golum with a torn lip

What do ppl mean when they reference a fighters stock?

@@fasting14_ that he will become a bigger draw, he will have a bigger fanbase

@@alexvat1995 shot g

@@fasting14_ Basically more people talking about him.

Good point. That will remind him of his mortality if he’s not careful.

@@boztos6025 Was it the "Wake up call"?

Yea Gilbert Bruns is tuff man

No that was the reality that he ain’t as good as he was made to believe

@@jakedalton6236 Burns

its a widely known & accepted fact

Compared to other ESPN employees, Brett is David Frost

Did he also say "You already beat the number 1 guy"? Referring to Gilbert burns who is ranked like 3 or 4 lolol

The full question is "will any part of you feel bad"

his interviews were always terrible. His questions used to be long-winded, three - four questions in one with a rhetorical question thrown in also. Just boring

He was never a pro wrestler, that would be WWE, he is an amateur freestyle wrestler.

I personally thought he lost to Burns, but they didn't want to interrupt his hype train.

I don’t think anybody beats him in a wrestling match. Best of this era now

@@Jaystub nahhh hard cap

@@oscarbuglass4746 I'll wait and see if he can handle Covington.

Ye

Khabib never had a loss . Actually lost one round in 29 matches and we all know how great a fighter he is . Some fighters are made diffrent.

Usman was dominating though. Then caught with a kick it can happen anyone can get kod by one good punch / kick. You can come back from that. What is harder to come back is taking a beating in a fight or a beating and then a ko

@@drhazy2232 Khabib retired too early. I am not discrediting his resume as it was fantastic but everyone loses at some point. Even all these undefeated professionals lost as amateurs. Everyone can beat on any given day. I think he would have lost at some stage.

God bless you both love Is more powerful than money. For money is the root of all evil. Jesus Christ is coming soon prepare

Which wars?

@@Ocidad World War ||

He was born during the First Chechen War

The dude has been in Sweden for over a decade; enough with this war talk. It's easily the most overblown hype of Khamzat.

@@VitoFranchesko Thought my math was right. Thanks for the additional information

No you wouldn’t

$200

brett okamatos would be paraplegic after the match

Brett is so annoying, I agree.

Its not expensive, you have internet you dont need too pay, u just gotta know where to look, Contact me if you want and ill tell u where too look.

he wont slap him, he will choke him out best case scenario

Stockholm🤣😂😂

Stockholm slap, awesome😂

I can tell you are new to the sport.

@@andrewtodd9103 I can tell you're a deluded Diaz fan who lives on wishful thinking

he beats usman - and yes i been saying that before Leon got that top 5 crazy finish of all time - but Usman will win his belt back - but i hope he does not get it back and just move to 205

@@TheWorldStageGeopolitics oh I agree especially now after usman just lost. Khamzat is a huge 70’r. I would love to see khamzat vs Izzy cuz Izzy is so hard to take down but I think with khamzats size and wrestling background he could get him down!

No that's a professional career in MMA. He has Sambo fights. He has more amateur fights than you can shake a stick at.

He’s been in fighting all his life…

He learned it from my mom

My guy I bet my life this fight never happens for whatever reason. Just wait and see

@@svengali5862 😂😂😂😂 ok who's pulling out?

@@svengali5862 😂😂😂😂 ok who's pulling out?

@@Mikey-gp5xc Don't know , probably Nate so he can screw the UFC out of their money as EVERYONE wants to see this fight, it will be his way of sticking it to them

@@svengali5862 Nate will get sued. Breach of contract.

Don’t know how a fight fan could hate him. He’s an elite fighter so early in his career. His wrestling is spectacular and probably best in UFC. He’s got a lot of respect for others and has a big heart. Look at all the good he does for homeless people.

@@ryanb8736 oh my brother don't get the comment wrong I love Khamzat like he's my guy man

Well my friend, I commented earlier bout this, I respect all these guys but this is a fight not a war, if he was born for war he would be in military somewhere not octagon, but the sad thing is, they make more money than the military that go to war for real

@@jasongray5330 like American military that go to invade countries and shoot the kids? They don’t deserve anything

@Bonbony Cema absolutely I agree with you, hopefully no one gets seriously hurt her, but it’s still not “war”, I lost close friends in “real war” with real bullets.. y’all have a great night and be safe, gonna be a great card

@Bonbony Cema exactly, but war is not a fair assumption in this instance

I think we all know he means a war for our minds to bow towards mecca on the hour If he wins I will do it

he aint smart at all.. no one who wore a mask all day and got the jungle juice injected is SMART

@@thefourfourfour9512 did someone ask you SHITFACE

He didn't seem that smart in the last fight. But eventhough I think he will win.

His wrestling is too much on Nate.
