Ali Abdelaziz says Umar Nurmagomedov is better than Khabib and Islam Makhachev
Prominent MMA manager Ali Abdelaziz has five clients fighting on UFC 300 -- Justin Gaethje, Cody Garbrandt, Kayla Harrison, Marina Rodriguez and Jessica Andrade -- and we discuss each of them and their fights.
Abdelaziz, though, drops a bombshell when he says another client, Umar Nurmagomedov, is better than Khabib Nurmagomedov and Islam Makhachev. He reveals that it's a done deal for Umar to fight Cory Sandhagen, though he said the UFC doesn't have a date yet.
We also discussed the settlement in the antitrust lawsuit against the UFC, the outlook for the PFL with Bellator now included, Cody Garbrandt's rejuvenation and much, much more.

No one even comes close to Ali as being the best manager in UFC he controls all the legendary fighters
Not only the best manager but he's one of the best humans on the planet. He has a great heart and always puts others first.
Ali is the best manger whom promoting his fighters, respect to him 👋 .
More ali please.
Great Interview Kevin!! Keep up the good work..
Khabib is in his own league and another level. Literally makes the gameplans for his teammates. People should just stop mentioning him with the others. They don't have his invincibility factor and should rather be compared with each other than him...
Solid questions about the contracts and interesting to hear Ali explain it from his point of view. No one has said anything about it except him
Always Love your interviews...
Ali is the man..
Good interesting interview Kevin 👍
If you hate ali who cares
nobody cares if you dont hate him either
They are jealous of him
@@user-dc9yv4rf1f LOL
The real rat like an actual rat you out to the 5-0
YOU DO ALI
Best manager in MMA hands down !
Ali is the GOAT when it comes to managing fighters. The love and respect he has for his fighters is undeniable. There's a reason why Khabib chose Ali to give the intro in his hall of fame speech.
Starting off with hard questions. Mma fans should not miss this channel. That's real journalism
“Khabib beat people like they owned him money.” 😂👏👍
Khabib GOAT
Only Allah is capable of controlling our destinies.
Since khabib retirement, umar is one of the fw fighters to exhibit gnp
Is this guy the new John Morgan lol
9:30 he is talking about One
Kevin iole is glad he is Dana friend because he sucks at this. Hence, the subscribers
He pretty good actually.
28:42 ali didnt like islam vs dustin
He knows won't be competitive
Khabib Nurmagomedov is the only true G.O.A.T of the sport.
This Guy crazy if he think Justin deserves a title shot over Charles. Charles is the face of the lightweight division that’s active
i don't know what's crazy about that? right now he definitely deserves it more than charles, what did charles do? beat beniel? good he got the shot then he pulled out while justin koed dustin and has two wins charles has only one.
Last year 2023 Oliveira said 3 times he didn't want to fight the current champion the p4p king 👑 Islam makhachev
Charles doesnt want to fight Islam again. His coach said if Charles wins he wants to fight Conor. Charles miraculously got cut 10 days out of 294. Charles knows the rematch won't go any different.
"Charles is the face of the lightweight division that’s active." What do you mean by "active" ? The guy fought once in 18 months. TF are you talkin' about ? "The champ has a name !" NO ! The champ has the belt ! "Oliveira is active." NO ! He's pulled out of the rematch at UFC 294 and turned down another rematch with Makhachev earlier last year. "Oliveira is chasing Makhachev." NO ! His coach said in an interview that he wants to fight McGregor later this year. You guys need to stop with these false narratives. It's getting annoying.
@shadowzeenko3653 all facts bro. Oliveria fans always making up B S and not even listening to the Charles.
So.. According to ali, umar usman and islam are all better than khabib. 🙄
It hurts my brain listening to this dude
Kinda stupid forcing yourself listening to him then telling people your stupidity.
@@moorez0007I like Kevin interviews you dummy lol
@@HasleyMareli-xk6gq an interview is an engagement between two individuals though. Lol
then go f with nina or helen yee, this is the true journalism channel
ALI HEAD SHAPED LIKE A GOOMBA
Let's see your perfect shaped head then?
@@nme_mma ALI IS THAT YOU?
@@nme_mma Awww did he offend your touch butt buddy?
@@CassieStone-wr4bg HE CANT REPLY BECAUSE HE HAS ALIS MEAT LODGED IN HIS THROAT AS I TYPE
@@CassieStone-wr4bgNAH but he did lose track of Noah
Says Ollie- Abdulla-sleaze, ufc's BIGGEST DIRTBAG right next to Masvidal!
Kindly explain why he is a dirtbag?
The two worst people in ufc making a video lol
And you are the worst person to still watch it
Just ask Ali if he knows any of the first 21 opponents of Khabib. He will never be the GOAT. Case closed.
His head is shaped like a construction cone
