That's why I hate them 😂

True

He needs to defend his title a few times first.

People don’t hate them, well maybe some do, but really people don’t relate to them because they’re different than any other culture in the world. They’re generally Caucasian yet because they’re devout Muslims they wear the beards so to an American who doesn’t know, they think they’re Amish or something. Then, the way they fight, it’s absolutely badass but it doesn’t look smooth and coordinated like Alex Perieria or Leon Edwards, Izzy, Jon Jones, it’s a bit more uncoordinated looking but damn it works. But, if you’re a young black man from Manhattan, or a Latino from Chicago, or a white kid from Detroit, how are you to relate to those dudes from the mountains of Dagestan. Maybe it’s fear of the unknown or unfamiliar? I train with many guys from the Middle East who’s parents came to Dearborn Michigan when the guys were little, they all root for the Dagastani’s because they practice the same religion. I also train with four or five dudes from different parts of Russia who say they relate more to Pete Yan or Fedor. So, it’s not as simple as they’re the best, because only one has left the sport being the best. Brazil has many more greats still. 10 years from now, it might be all Dagastani’s holding a belt in every class but right now, we have one, Islam, who’s defended it 2 of 3 times against a 145er, and arguably lost the first fight. So, let’s not all start saying THEY are the best because one out of EVER, named Khabib was the best.

@@jordanfortier3246watch the interview. That’s the plan

Chael is so clueless. Remember when he found out that Islam vs Arman was a 5 round main event?

Chael looks up to Islam. Watch their interview at Fat Guy vs Bad Guy.

Islam is sigma, he always looks composed

How can you type all that and not be aware you’re the exact problem. It’s not that serious or that personal and here you are writing an angry paragraph at… multiple fan bases? Yeah you’re a hypocrite

Islam fans are worse. They support a bloke who's built a career on fighting FWs in his last 4 fights (hooker, charles, volk x2) and then acts like he's beat everyone while beating not a single natural lw. Now speaks about moving up 🤡 feel free to correct me or have a come back but we all know there isn't one.

@@olliedeaney8740 I think he has a point. Two of the worst fanbases (and largest) in the sport are McGregor fans and Oliveira fans. Both fanbases have a common ground of disliking Islam, causing Islam to recieve a disproportionate amount of hate.

Now they jump on Sakuryan wagon. lol

I’m surprised he even let him get that close!

lot of thing, some hate because he's Russian, some hate because he's Muslim, some hate because he's close to Khabib, and lot more.

a lot of people dont have makachev as a fighter or person like myself, but i hate his fucking cringe ass fanbase that dickride everything about him and that spread hate to other fighters all over social media.

2 words: russian and muslim

Any body that is extremely loved will also have some hate. Dont let the sour loud 1% skew ya

I appreciate his skill and dominance he shows in his fights.

ye it was a fist

Islam was knocked out by some random guy named Martins

That's true

He actually did aswel 😂

Leon v shavkat is better in every way.

@@Know3ody yeah man, leon "the decision machine" edwards would be fun to watch. Islam is literally more entertaining in almost every way

Shavkat fight is dangerous for Islam. Hope he fights against Leon

@@ammarabu-qalbain616Leon v Shavkat is better in every way.

Islam beats both of those guys. I don't see him being challenged at 170 either. Who is really up there that can do anything to him.

Islam will fight Savkat for the welter title next year

​@ryantiarno4294 at this rate he'll be fighting him before Leon, the other champ who rarely fights

Islam said he didnt want to fight at the abu dhabi card this year, he wants to go to madison square garden to defend his title after Dustin

​@@gamer6595source?

I observed that MMA hate will come from fans wanting to see hype trains humbled. Patty pimplett is already there. I think Bo Nickel is entering it. Islam is a special case of him not defending his belt against his division. If he feels there's no challenges for him there, then he should vacate and go up. Even if he beats Dustin, he should go if he's bored there.

👀👀👀👀

"let us know how he feels"

If you are a long time follower you would recall this conversation during the khamzat episode.

That would be 🔥🔥

Yes

He is too small for 185

Maybe but there are lots of big guys over there

Islam was young at that point. All of the best lose if they're fighting the best fighters possible

Let's hope God lord let's hope

​@guilliman1990 My dream is Dustin sparks Islam, so Khabib comes back to fight Dustin again and he sparks him too Islam is gonna smash him tho

Islam hasn't lost in years. He has a pretty strong track record

So did Jesus' earliest followers consider him to be God? EHRMAN: Well, what I argue in the book is that during his lifetime, Jesus himself didn't call himself God and didn't consider himself God and that none of his disciples had any inkling at all that he was God. The way it works is that you do find Jesus calling himself God in the Gospel of John, our last Gospel. Jesus says things like: Before Abraham was, I am, and I and the father are one, and if you've seen me, you've see the father. These are all statements that you find only in the Gospel of John, and that's striking because we have earlier Gospels, and we have the writings of Paul, and in none of them is there any indication that Jesus said such things about him. I think it's completely implausible that Matthew, Mark and Luke would not mention that Jesus called himself God if that's what he was declaring about himself. That would be a rather important point to make. So this is not an unusual view among scholars. It's simply the view that the Gospel of John is providing a theological understand of Jesus that is not what was historically accurate. GROSS: Jesus was referred to as the king of the Jews. Did he call himself that, and what did that mean it is time? Do we know? Can we have any idea what that meant in its time? EHRMAN: Yeah, we do know, and actually to be a king of the Jews simply meant literally, being the king over Israel. It is a very difficult question to get to, what Jesus taught about himself because of the nature of our gospels, but one thing is relatively certain, that that the reason the Romans crucified Jesus was precisely because he was calling himself the king of Israel. Now, Jesus obviously was not the king. So what might he have meant by it? Well, what scholars have long thought is that Jesus was talking about not being put on the throne by means of some kind of political show of power, but that Jesus thought the world as he knew it was coming to an end and God was going to bring in a kingdom, a new kingdom in which there would be no more injustice or oppression or poverty or suffering of any kind. And in this kingdom, Jesus appears to have thought that he himself would be the future king. And so Jesus meant this not in the regular political sense but in a kind of apocalyptic sense, that at the end of the age, this is what was going to happen: he was going to be installed as king. GROSS: So Jesus saw himself as the messiah. What else did that mean in its time? EHRMAN: Well, a lot of Christians today have a wrong idea about what the messiah was supposed to be. The word messiah is a Hebrew word that literally means the anointed one. This was used in reference to the kings of Israel. The ancient kings of Israel, when they became king during the coronation ceremony, would have oil poured on their head as a sign of divine favor. And so the king of Israel was called God's anointed one, the messiah. There came a point at which there was no longer a king ruling Israel, and some Jewish thinkers began to maintain that there would be a future king of Israel, a future anointed one, and they called that one the messiah. And so the messiah for most Jews simply referred to the future king of Israel. And so when Jesus told his disciples that he himself was the messiah, he was saying that in the future, when God establishes the kingdom once more, I myself will be the king of that kingdom. And so it's not that the messiah was supposed to be God. The messiah was not supposed to be God. The messiah was a human being who would be the future king, and that's probably what Jesus taught his disciples that he was

Jesus Christ not God. It is clear from the verses below that he was indeed 100% man. John 17.3...jesus says to the father...that they may know you, THE ONLY TRUE GOD and Jesus whom you sent. John 20.17 Jesus says....I am ascending to my father and your father, my God and your God. Acts 2:22 “Men of Israel, listen to this: Jesus of Nazareth was a man accredited by God to you by miracles, wonders and signs, which God did among you through him, as you yourselves know. 1 Timothy 2:5 For there is one God and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus. Numbers 23:19 God is not a man, that he should lie, nor a son of man… Numbers 23:19 (NRSV) God is not a human being, that he should lie, or a mortal… Hosea 11:9 For I am God, and not man- the Holy One among you.

He said champ champ not double champ. IMO he is right they are very different things. Winning in 2 weights is double champ but simultaneously holding two belts champ champ.

😂 same size they have alot more muscle all around than most fighters, strong thights and upper body, must "bigger" fw have shoulders/pecks

@@RicardoReview yet he is the same size or even shorter. Okey he may be more muscular, so? Cope harder.

@@giacalonebuilding4443 but first he needs to get his shot at the second belt to become double champ before he can defend it and be “champ champ”. Why does Islam need to climb the 170 div when he’s the PP1 in UFC and also has the longest active win streak when others got their shot for less? It’s blatant discrimination and we know why.

@@Zold99 I never said anything about Islam. Just that double champ means winning a belt in 2 weights at any point in time and champ champ is simultaneously holding 2 belts

Usman is a MW now

Usman destroys Islam let’s be honest

Usman destroys Islam let’s be honest

Islam beats the piss out of colby, usman, leon and shavkhat are the only hard fights for him, even then id still favour islam over usman right now.

You nobodies have no say in this sport, keep quiet

@@WeAreGhuraba the irony of you saying that while flapping yo d*** s***ing lips is insans

He isn't clearing out the division, he's had the belt two years and fought a Featherweight

​​@@starwarsroo2448 that featherweight was the #1 P4P fighter at the time. When Charles pulled out, the betting odds tightened a lot because the public knew that even short-notice Volk was a bigger threat than full-camp Oliveira.

@@rajkhan9643 Fw is the goat or was, doesn't mean Mackachev shouldn't clear out some of the top guys IN Lw

Because you have Belal and Shavkat/JDM first. UFC 300 was one reason they could justify passing Belal but now that no longer works. And if Shavkat wins, he goes next

@@keyboardwarrior6591 I can tolerate that Belal gets his shot first but what I can’t tolerate is him have to climb the latter when he’s UFC’s PP1 and has the longest active win streak when other got their chance for less.

@@Zold99 I don’t think he needs to fight any contender but he needs to be willing to wait a bit. Actually in the mean time he is fighting Dustin and Arman so it should be fine

@@keyboardwarrior6591 I don’t have any objections to that and I don’t think he has either except some frustration on arman for dragging out the fight but still keep calling him out despite declining to fight him 4 times. What I do have a objection to is him throwing dirt on them by taking stabs at them with unfounded allegations that the real reason khabib quit is cuz he didn’t want to make weight and that Islam might do the same. And when he is saying that going straight to a title shot is “hard” unless a “unique opportunity presents itself which it already did”. He is deliberately discrediting both by saying they have a size advantage which they clearly don’t have being shorter than many of the LWs and he’s putting up stupid roadblocks for Islams path to a WW title when he is the most deserving of a chance at a second belt im UFC roster. It’s foul play from chael side.

Me too, only took 5 seconds

Fight once a year in 2 divisions 😂

Like leon ?

Islam is about to have his 3rd defense before the current ww champion leon edwards. Edwars has had the belt for quite a bit longer btw but i guess you just going to act blind to that just to hate on Islam.
