At a recent EFC event in Kazakhstan, Russian UFC Hall of Famer Khabib Nurmagomedov spoke highly of current UFC Welterweight Shavkat Rakhmonov, referring to the Kazakhstani as a "title contender". With an impressive undefeated record of 16-0, Shavkat is on a fast track to be the first fighter from Kazakhstan to fight for a UFC title.
Is Shavkat a true contender for the UFC championship currently held by Kamaru Usman? How does he stack up with other bonafide contenders in the division like Colby Covington and Khamzat Chimaev?
What do you think?
Do you think that we will see Shavkat Rakhmonov compete for a UFC title one day?

McGregor says what has khabib done for the sport? This video shows what he is doing, has done and the impact he will have for future generations
Mc Gregor destroy young generation with proper wishky
He also destroy the sport (Conor), it's only business
That and more. He's spreading MMA the correct way
mcgregor is out of question he is irrelevant
@@SolarPuddle You are real psychos if you deny that Conor single-handedly raised MMA to several levels in 3-4 years. But Khabib's contribution is also there, but it would have been more if Khabib had not left so early.
Shavkat wasn't expecting that. I'm sure he felt honored to have Khabib mention him 👏🏼 I love my brothers for the sake of Allah
Khabib's father was in Shavkat's corner in his first professional fight)
@@alish1345 I didn't know that. Thanks for thr info
@@alish1345respect honour and brotherhood is everything
khabib also use to train with shavkat. before he was in the ufc. He taught him how to fake jabs into takedowns.
For the sake of Allah? That seems forced and on behalf of rather than how you feel
Shavkat has a great chance to become a UFC champion, let's go Shavkat, let's go Kazakhstan 👍👍👍
He is a very talented young fighter!
CIA will interfere in this environment. They dont want any russian doing good in American money sponsored sport. I even think Islam going to loose his title fight with Charles not because Islam is bad but like Charles was strip off his Championship belt for their weight machine fault similar freak thing can happen to Islam.
Indeeed
Unless he improves his wrestling and ground game, good luck fighting Khamzat Chimaev
Yes he does
Shavkat seems like a humble guy and a good fighter
Exactly
Khabib has brought Respect back into this sport. While the likes of Connor etc took it to the gutter.
he said mma was a respect sport and he delivered in getting it back to where it should be
lmao whatstewpidcomments
wow what a respect he brought back to sports, he jump into gutter to attack someone outside cage, he bullshit every time against any non muslim fighter, khabib is muslim rat, most hated, and filthy people on earth is musl..im pig
@@dennisseibert9043 what respect? More stoopidcomments
@@kavishurethireswaran2748 Conor commercialized it, Khabib dignified it. Simple as.
My salutations from Algeria to my Muslim brothers in Kazakhistan.
Salamaleykum from Qazaqstan ✋🏻
Both humble fighters
"Stay Humble" - Khabib 🙏
Let's go Khabib let's go Eagle FC
A great platform for fighters indeed!
i think eagle fc will grow and compete with bellator in the future because the way khabib spoke about it he clearly have a vision for the company.the problem is the sanctions.russophobia is so bad right now
@@aniqdc6184 Yes there is a lot of unfair treatment right now :(
@@sambosays9799 its bs.they bring their liberal cancel culture into sports, education and entertainment.
@@sambosays9799Eagles FC is dead now thanks to to Sam Bankman Friedman scandal. Eagles FC relied on cryptocurrency and when that crashed so did the funding for the promotion.
Between Khabib, Islam, Umar and Usman they have 1 loss 4 Fighters. That is incredible !!! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The Nurmagomedov family must be the greatest MMA family to have ever existed
They are modern day Gracies. I’m just curious who will be the modern day Sakuraba to beat them 😂.
Now shavkat 17-0 he is really the title contender now.
khabib is such a nice guy, very humble.
Caucasus Eagle with his Kazakh Turk Wolf brothers! ❤
Commenting this a few days after Shavkat won his 17th straight fight by submitting Geoff Neal. Dude is definitely in title contention.
You mean 17 straight finishes?
definitely, give him the title shot after he beats stephen thompson. or belal vs shavkat for title contender.
Hello from just after he submitted wonderboy for wonderboy's first submission loss in his MMA career. Now 18-0 with 18 finishes
@@scoogins I got to watch that fight live from a pub in my city. Not the most exciting fight I've ever seen, but it was definitely impressive that Nomad because the first person to ever tap out Stephen Thompson.
The UFC and MMA have taken steps to get to this point of popularity around the world. Fighters like Frank shamrock , tank Abbott , Tito Ortiz , Chuck Liddell , Jon Jones , gsp , and Vitor , have made contributions to that popularity , but Connor took it to another level , and Khabib took it yet to a higher level .
Without a doubt. Really looking forward to see the title fight between Khamzat vs Shavkat!
That would be huge!
@@sambosays9799 yes, an exciting fight!
@@alimurreza exciting keyboard warrior.
@@alhassangangu4357 as exciting as your words
Aged well
If Khabib doesn’t end up a prominent politician at least for his region in time. Well I’d be surprised. He is such a leader.
what r u talking about
He needs to stop licking Khadyrovs boot first.
Aleksandr Karelin, the wrestling legend and arguably the most dominant athlete ever lived, replace his retirement with being a politician. I'm not surprised if khabib at some point, does it too
Shavkat is on the radar now!
Great fighter honourable man God bless 🙏
Indeed!
Thanks for the tranlsation.
You are welcome! :)
Shavkat vs Khamzat in the future 🏆
That would be an incredible fight!
Interesting fight don't know who wins it's so confusing cause there so good like on the same level
yes it would be, very true
Both carrying zero losses!
Khamzat win easy
I appreciate the english translation
Glad you like it!
18-0 Shavkat Rahmanov
Khabib is full of wisdom
The goat has spoken
Khabib is proud of his student.
Those people has respect for familly first and for everything else and that is what make's them way above
More unique translation like this,suscribed
There will be more for sure!
I can’t imagine how many mma monsters are coming out of Kazakhstan after seeing Shavkat rise into fame in America.
Khabib is a leader. Love from Indonesia🇮🇩
How right he was.. 👍
And Khabib was right 👊
Human beings fall into two categories: 1) You are Humble or 2) You will get Humbled
There's no doubt Shavkat is Sakuraba's illegitimate son
LOL
LMAO. The resemblance is very strong for sure.
Don't talk nonsense bro
You saw that too!?😂
That's hilarious 🤣
Goat recognize goat 🐐 🐐

Definitely in the conversation!

The three Asians with the best chance of winning the UFC title 1. Shavkat 2. Da un jung 3. Song Yadong
Ismagulov
Zhang Weili will likely win back her title.
Shavkat is not asian.
@@eduardosalamanca3398 He is.
I put zhang above all of them, her title shot is already pretty much guaranteed and esparza is a very winnable fight for her. Also merab is close to the title and sterling said hed rather vacate than fight his friend
Khabib reconizes these things as GOATS do. Shavkat has skills and is one of my favorites. He does get hit to much, hope he seals that up a bit. Colby has nothing for Shavkat, but Burns vs Shav would be sick as fuck. Might even lead towards a ko for burns
Shavkat needs to experience that early so he can improve on it later in his career to become a complete fighter
Before a title shot, he must fight at least 1-2 guys from the TOP 5: Burns, Belal, Chimaev, Colby, Usman. Maaan... Those guys are really strong beasts. It's gonna be extremely difficult against any of them.
Белал отказался биться с Шавкатом! Колби даже не будет рисковать. А Усман не станет дратся с Шавкатом потому что у него и так серия из поражении. А Хамзат поднялся в весе.
А Бернс будет дратся с Масвидалем
👍💖
:)
He is better than khmazat
Both are amazing fighters! Caucasus Eagle and Kazakh Turk Wolf ❤

En comparacion que a hecho Mc Gregor por mma. - insultar y menospreciar a sus rivales de turno.( para generar mas publicidad) - escoger sus contrincantes ( evitaba a los luchadores) - formo una pandilla que agredieron a un bus con todo tipo de objetos, hubo varios heridos. - golpeo a un anciano en un bar solo por que no acepto tomar su wuiski. - etc, etc. Gracias a todos esos escandalos Mc Gregor hizo mas conocido al deporte de mma.
Амин!
The Great Senpai Noticed you!
Does the majority of people in Kazakhstan speak Kazakh or Russian? And was khabib speaking 100% russian here? Seems like the audience and shavkat understood him. Are the languages similar?
@Asanali Eshimov so shavkat speaks both, for sure?
The languages are very different but both are widely spoken in Kazakhstan. According to Wikipedia - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Languages_of_Kazakhstan - 74% of people speak Kazakh and 89% speak Russian. So most people speak both. Khabib was speaking 100% Russian in the video.
@@1.21Gigawatts_ Yes he has spoken both in his interviews!
Kazakhs fluently speak Russian and Kazakh
not everyone speaks and understands russian in Kazakhstan we speak Kazakh
Shavkat looks like skinny brock lesnar😆
how does he resemble brock in any way lol
Artiin ngapah
Shavkat definitely descended from genghis lol
Лееее жи есть да лееее

If Khabit was a mediocre fighter, his name would be Connor Mcgregor.
What language is he speaking?
Fucking russian - language of accupants
Occupiers
Russian
He can beat you also he is new champion he is beast now 🤐
He is almost two Khabibs lol of course he would beat him.
@@tarci2994 no, Khabib very strongest. Shavkat is strong, but Khabib gonna smash him. Trust me, Khabib in another level
Shavkat didn't look like a Russian more like mongolian
He is of Kazakh descent. Most Kazakhs speak Russian.
Let’s get this right he is not Mongolian but of Turkic origin and Russian/Turkic mentality and Muslim. Dangerous mix for fighting and honor mentality. I’m Hungarian and we have ancient history with turkics and Kazakhs and there’s even a tribe in Kazakhstan called the madjar tribe similar to our language magyar with a letter g.

Thank you Mcgregor for making Khabib famous in all muslim countries and possibly the whole world. Your proper 12 made him famous!
I feel like I am watching Soviet Propoganda or an example of narcissism whenever Khabib uses platform to rant about his theories. Weird vibes.
Right, he should act like a jackass, which would sit well with you.
Don't follow him then. Go sleep. Go sleep.

I feel like throwing up whenever I see an American that uses the word "vibe".
Narcissism doesn't exist in Russia, whenever they are talk about something, they mean it.
