    Thank you so much for telling the truth about real Muslims like Khabib and yes Islam teaches us like that and more . Alhmdulillah 🙏🏼
  • How coach Javier didn't get an award for coach of the year last year and earlier than that is very lame. Gotta appreciate him for always giving us the best fighters to watch :-)
  • A coach giving props to his students 🙏🙏🙏🙏 Javier Mandez the Father of all fathers

    Shamil is the lion of Dagestan, shamil is a legend and one of Abdulmanaph Nurmagomedov's first pupils, Shamil even once feed baby Khabib in his arms and stopped him from crying and Shamil was the one who first taught him his first submission before being taught by father. One time in the mountains village us kids would swim in the flood gates, very dangerous for swimming little Khabib wanting to be like big brother shamil almost drowned but Shamil saved him Even though Khabib is UFC champion Shamil will always be the real champion in the eyes of the eagle 🦅
  • @mmayan
    It is amazing how every conversation becomes about Khabib and I am loving it.
  • @violetrose7956
    The legacy of abdulmanap nurmagomedov that's what motivated islam makachev
  • @jf1341
    Khabib in the cover was clickbait but it worked 😁👌
  • @azarias26
    Javier is such a cool coach to have. But the hosts were very cool themselves. Nothing sour about this podcast. Very well made 👌
  • @boxing4life410

  • @silence7113
    You know he's a real one when he said we all know this is ENTERTAINMENT 1st and SPORT 2nd...wow.#BigFacts
  • @lhavnghak5085
    Islam Makhachev, Jiří Procházka, Khamzat Chimaev; we need new guys like these. All the best, coach.
  • @awaisjamil9956
    I have major respect for coach Javier, he dosnt even include himself in the discussion for greatest coach although he clearly has major achievements in coaching champions in the UFC. Really humble and honest throughout the entire discussion, makes sense why coach Javier and Khabib work together and why the Dagestani guys have a lot of respect for coach Javier.

    The schmo persona brings such a level of high energy that works with that style of interview but it’s super nice to see Dave get some of that spotlight. Both him and Helen are killing the podcast game 🔥
