Shavkat Rakhmonov reveals his biggest secrets 

Thank you for Watching! Subscribe for more Interviews!

This guy is the best translator up there. I speak Russian, and he does it very accurately , doesn't add, doesn't cut. Plus he translates English to Russian and Shavkat responses in Kazakh, which in turn his translator translates to English. To give him even more credit, he is actually one of his trainers, not his interpreter. Credit where it deserves.

Man, what an aura this dude has. A silent, smiling killer of few words.

Gretings from Türkiye. Our hearts are with our Kazak brother.

I, as a guy who grew up in LA and worked in Almaty in Kazakhstan, will say that people in Kazakhstan are very kind and cleaner than anywhere else, thanks to them for everything, I hope to fly back someday 🇰🇿🇰🇿🇰🇿

She's given us more Shavkat than any other reporter by miles. Thank you, Nina.

The only person who was honest about the PowerSlap unlike everyone else trying to please Dana

Shavkat legend🐺 Salam from Azerbaijan ❤🇦🇿🇰🇿

as almaty born german kazakh I can say I am proud to see a kazakh figther doing it! ( without tatoos, without scandals) I am sure our kazakh ancestors are proud to see a warrior winning like that, best of luck to him, blessings!

Shavkat has the best translator I have ever heard. He makes the interviews go much more smoothly.

For those who don't know, an interesting fact: there are three languages ​​in this interview. The translator speaks Russian, and Shavkat speaks Kazakh, Nina speaks English, very interesting circle)

Let's go Kazakh brother hope to see you staying undefeated and getting the belt sometime soon. Qazaxstana Salamlar 🇦🇿🇰🇿

🇰🇿🇵🇭Kazakhs are nicest people ever even when they present themselves to media. GGG and Shavkat do not need to he rude to everyone to sell hype. Even they are called boring it is their skills that matters and their character.

For those who don’t know, I’ll tell you that Kazakhs don’t eat riding horses. These are specially bred horses for eating. This is the tradition of the nomads of the Eurasian steppe. By the way, the Huns are shown in the 1998 cartoon Mulan. These are the ancestors of the Kazakhs.

Wow, Shavkat is actually way less scary than i thought he was. He's a killer in the cage but he's a nice guy

Him being one of the first fighter in these interview segments to say he doesn’t like power slap made me respect him even more

Жарайсын Шавкат ✊ казакша жауап берип жатканына Оз тилинди умытпай курметтеп жатканына нагыз казак🇰🇿👍

Shavkat is a great fighter that you want to keep an eye on! Salam from Azerbaijan 🇦🇿

SHAVKAT RAHMANOV 100% DESERVES THE CHAMPIONSHIP 🏆

Look how shavkat slowly opens up ,he first kept his arm in the pocket but as the interview progresses he became comfortable ,good job nina

man, love this guy. so humble, not fake like a breath of fresh air

Shavkat's favorite movie is The Lord of the Rings, I love this guy :)

Went better than I thought Dude is always smiling, great interview

My favourite fighter, beautiful people and beautiful country of Qazaqstan. Love from Norway❤

Мне нравится каким образом он набирает популярность - без грязного трештока, без пафоса, оскорблений. Создаёт впечатление спокойного, добродушного, уверенного парня, а после того как он сказал что его любимые фильмы по вселенной Толкиена, то вообще раскрывается для меня с другой стороны, и главное, женской половине западных фанатов тоже нравится).

Шавкат Рахмонов будущий чемпион 🇰🇿🔥✊

Seems like a nice guy. Very focused on the goal. It’s different to see him smile & talk longer than a post fight interview.

Я знаю Казахов. Я с ними общался. Много общался. И много, где я был. Все материки обьездил. Не был только в Новой Зеландии и в Антарктиде. Таких людей как Казахов, честно признаюсь, я не видел нигде. Много, очень много можно о них говорить. Скажу одно: это Казахи!!!☝👍👍👍🙏🇰🇿🇰🇿🇰🇿

I am from Tajikistan myself i have met a lot of Kazakh people in my life abroad, they are one of the most hospitable and kind hearted people you can meet

I didn't know I needed Nina in the UFC but now I know I do 🙏 I love these interviews, they're so funny and bring out spontaneous smiles out of the most stoic warriors on this planet, awesome!! Cheers from Belgium

let's go kazakhs. Good luck from Uzbekistan

This dude is turning into my favorite fighter I haven’t had a favorite fighter since GSP

Nicest man, humble funny and an absolute killer ! Some strong GSP vibe here, wish him the same carrier

That was such a funny interview 😂 I believe that’s the first interviewer that made him laugh so much. Nice job 👍🏼 🇺🇸 🇰🇿 ❤

i think this interview shows why most people... will for some unknown reason love Shavkat....when everything around you is fake...you will love what is true. Go Shavkat!!! and Thank You for a great job Nina!

I like he doesn't stare nor look at her much - shows he respects himself

Thx Nina and Shavkat good boy 🇰🇿🇰🇿🇰🇿

He usually trains without music. This is “Goggins” level focus at the task at hand. He is champ by the end of 2024.

Hey Nina thanks for interview! Shavkat the best of the best warrior🇰🇿🇰🇿🇰🇿🇰🇿🇰🇿🇰🇿

We are proud of you Shavkat, greetings from Uzbekistan

This guy really is John Wick, you chat with a good guy like him and would never see your death coming.

I love that someone is taking these fighters out of their routine, and allowing them to show themselves and build a fan base. These are obviously for your own growth, but I can't imagine how impactful it is for the fighters.

Laura Sanko is punching air right now while watching this video. She's coming for you Nina 😂

This dudes aura is so present. Terrifying outside of the cage as well just because of how straightforward and calm he is but also a nice guy.

This interview was better than expected! It's nice seeing Shavkat's personality. He is a killer in the cage but seems like such a genuine cool dude.

Shout out to my Turkic Brothers & Sisters, love from Türkiye 🇹🇷 🇰🇿 💪 🐺

As a woman, I totally get where Laura was coming from lol. He's just so cute!

Greetings from Kazakhstan🇰🇿, you look pretty. Good luck for our CHAMP!

Shavkat Rakhmonov and to all our NEIGHBORING KAZAKSTAN assalamualaikum and from the brotherly people from the neighbors of UZBEKISTAN WE LOVE YOU ❤🇺🇿🇰🇿free FALASTINE🇪🇭🤲☝️🤝💪

Nina: Steven didn't choose cannibalism Shavkat: Only the strongest will make the most difficult choice Алға Қазақстан 🇰🇿🇰🇿🇰🇿

As a fellow Kazakh I'm so proud of him. Hopefully 2024 he'll become the new UFC champion and stay undefeated until he retires. Btw I have the same birthday as him 23rd of October, so I'm quite familiar with that cusp thing as well 😁😁😁

Shavkat on a flying horse is the hero the planet needs

Shavkat Rakhmonov champion in shaa Allah 🇰🇿🇰🇿🇰🇿

Seeing Shavkat smile's the whole time is really wholesome ... Like this dude to much ( No Homo ) ...😊

Nina thanks for interview with our warrior, it means a lot to us Algaaaa Kazakhstan

Наконец то казахи появились в UFC. Уважуха казахским бойцам от русских из России! Успехов вам ребята! Хороший парень, без сегодняшних идиотских понтов в боях без правил. Приятно было посмотреть интервью.

Машаллах красава, рад за казахов, молодец Шавкат, толка в перед. Ташкент.

finally someone who isn't completely weirded out and goes along with the interview

This was one of the better interviews shes had. She brought more personality to a fighter that is beyond mysterious.

Yooo, Shavkat actually got a funny personality lmaoo Someone tell his manager he needs to do more podcasts

Credit to this translator. He is very good.

He read LoTR and The Hobbit, a true gentleman.

Nina's job is literally to make fighters more charismatic, without focusing so much on this MMA thing.

Кудаи каласа Шавкат оз салмагында ен улы чемпион болады!!!🇰🇿🇰🇿🇰🇿

Qazaq Eli aman bolsyn, Qazaqym kop bolsyn 🐺💪🏻

Shavkat is amazing. Say what you will, but he is a representation of a true warrior, straight from the steppe. Much love to Shavkat and Kazakhstan from Russia! ❤

Керемет 🤘сұхбат болды. Тамаша 🔥🔥🔥Шавкат Рахманов болашақ чемпион 🇰🇿💪💪💪💪🇰🇿🇰🇿🇰🇿🇰🇿

Нина красотка позитивная, Шавкат лучший в своём деле❤️‍🔥🇰🇿

Kazakhs are the descendants of ancient "saka-massagetaens" with their queen Tomiris👑! Ancient Greeks called them "the scythians". Strabo wrote in his book "Geography", that they -- "NOMADS", ride on low horses using a bow and arrows, eat mostly horse meat, drink "kumis" - horse milk, and live in the north of the rive Jaxartes (Syr Darya) . Heorodotus wrote in his book " History ", that those nomads live in the east of Caspean sea (north of the river Syr Dariya and east of the Caspean sea is modern Kazakhstan, if you look at the map), and say that scythians says " we are the sons of Targutay" . Nomad warriors... And other like Arrianus, Diodorus and e.t.c. wrote about them⚔🇰🇿🇰🇿🐎🐺🐎🔥🔥🔥🔥

This guy is like the John Wick of MMA. Quiet assassin.

Shavkhat Rakhmanov is a bulldozer in his own league 18:0 The phenomenon of 100% victories Leon Edwards does not want to fight him, even Chimaev got scared and moved to a different weight.

How could this guy be so charismatic without us understanding any word?

He is so attractive

Man, most of the time I do not find interviews entertaining if the fighters don't speak English. I dunno I just tune out for a lot of em, and feel like I can't connect to em. But not this one, your videos with this guy and Alex Pereira were captivating. Good job dude

Yes shavkat is loyal, he seldomly glances at nina, what a good husband 👏

Interesting awesome interview Alga Kazakhstan 🇰🇿 Alga Kyrgyzstan 🇰🇬

Love from Kashmir to my kazakh brother 🇰🇿🇰🇿

What's your favorite animal? Horse. What's your favorite food? Horse. Nina is literally showcasing every fighter dark side😂

Favorite movie LotR and Hobbit. No wonder this man is undefeated!

We also eat horse meat in our part of Switzerland, it actually is delicious.

I've actually watched this interview 5 times😂😅

That was unexpected... "fighting on a flying horse" 😂😂😂

There is actually 3 languages, she’s asking in English, he’s translating it in Russian and Shavkat answering in Kazakh. That’s crazy

Шавкату Салам огромный из России

Translation is a top notch! And as always tuffest guys are nicest once. Amazing interview!

Nina has so much fun vibes even Shavkat could not stop smiling

If Shavkat starts speaking some promos in English his popularity will skyrocket. Really hoping he becomes champ!

Шавқат красавчик!!! Мойындаттын Американы! Nina салем Қазақстаннан!🇰🇿🇰🇿🇰🇿🇰🇿🇰🇿🇰🇿

Translator did a great job conveying Ninas American humor into Russian sentences. Awesome interview

He’s Muslim and is comfortable around a females, he’s having so much fun, even shook her hands. Very different from Makhachev and Khabib

Never in a million year would i ever gave guessed that Shavkat Loves lord or the ring and the hobbit...

Shavkat future champion!!!!!!!!!!!!!🇰🇿🇰🇿🇰🇿

thank you for this interview, my fav fighter at the moment!!!

Ассаламу Алейкум Қазақ Елі 🖐 Nomad SHAVKAT let's go 💪🇰🇿🇰🇿🇰🇿🇰🇿🤫

Начинается эра Шавката Рахмонова. До чемпионства осталось 1,2 боя, дело времени

There is no better way to really get to know a UFC fighter than watching an interview with Nina 🤣 This was great

By far the best interviewer in the business! I love the way you help these fighters express a different side of the personality!

Went 5 days without power, heat, anything in -15 weather and this is the first video I watch when I get it back, and I couldn't have picked a better one. Loved it!

Next champ and maybe can be the best in the history in the future, 18 fights, 18 finishes❤

Shavkat is such a happy person. Def only feel positivity around this guy. And hes one hell of a fighter.
