After minute 55:00, that’s the reason why we love Khabib and his crew.
You d man
Thanks for mentioning!
Thank you
Thank you so much for telling the truth about real Muslims like Khabib and yes Islam teaches us like that and more . Alhmdulillah 🙏🏼
Its amazing. I grew up in Denmark Europe, among peers from different Muslim countries while Somali myself. Even though we come from humble backgrounds we have the Islamic cameradery, respect, and love. When it’s among each other, we just know it’s like that always. Pray for our ummah ♥️
@@MohamedAhmed-rz9sw ameen...muslims are brothers and sisters through and through
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 :-)
Coach Javier is great, but Wittman does have 2 champs and a #1 contender to be fair
Biased Colby won 1 345 rounds against Usman
@@xinsanedefeatx Lol. 20+ of Javier's fighter's won fights the last year and went undefeated... Whittman only trains 3 fighters. I thought Weili won against Rose, and Usman had a close fight against Colby. Gaethje is on a 1 fight winning streak... It's like Floyd said "both my dad and my uncle Roger trained me (50-0), and neither one of them won a coach of the year award ever"... Too much politics...
@@alcottdevalte7440 and it's been proven time and time again it's harder to become and stay champ than it is to remain undefeated outside of the rankings and lower in top 15. Quality beats quantity in this, rather have 1 champ than 5 undefeated prospects. Prospects aren't proven, they're prospective champ/top fighter. A champ is a champ By that logic a coach at ATT or Sanford MMA probably has the most high level prospects in the ufc
also, to be fair, Khabib, although held up the division for a while, did not fight last year.....and Islam just broke into the top 5.........
A coach giving props to his students 🙏🙏🙏🙏 Javier Mandez the Father of all fathers
Coach Javier is a gangster. We love him. Greetings from México 🇲🇽 Señor Schmo.
Real Mexican Gangster
Saludos
Coach so much love from Saudi Arabia 🇸🇦❤️ #teamAKA
It is amazing how every conversation becomes about Khabib and I am loving it.
Lol . Marketing the whole brand brilliant strategy why not 😎✌🏾
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 🦅
Are you from Dagestan?
@@Algojo No, i just remember asking Khabib at AKA after training back in 2012 who was his idol growing up in Dagestan. Shamil is a Legend in dagestan and is master of sports and has street name after him in local villager Sildi. Same childhood village as Khabib who also has street name in Sildi village. Shamil remember Khabib and Islam first steps in the gym.
@@callywetini6794thx for this bro
You said "in village us kids swim in flood gates", that implies you were there too "us kids". Maybe english isnt your first language
The legacy of abdulmanap nurmagomedov that's what motivated islam makachev
@aloevv𖤐 you again, still making fun of a someone's dead father huh!?. .
@aloevv𖤐 you didnt reply last time you got roasted for talking from your keyboard 😂 will be here waiting to see you say these things to these fighters in person, theyre very accessible at their gyms
@@dorito7480 Some people don't come back to comments, I rarely do so waiting around for a randomer to answer you is just odd.
@@NicolaMaxwell he just replied to the previous comment mentioning him but okay? Lol
@@NicolaMaxwell i dont expect you to reply either tho, youre defending someone who is making fun of someone’s dead father
Khabib in the cover was clickbait but it worked 😁👌
I love the dynamic between Dave and the schmo
Best trio right here love these three together for interviews Javier real Mexican gangster
Javier is such a cool coach to have. But the hosts were very cool themselves. Nothing sour about this podcast. Very well made 👌
Are you sour about every other podcast though ?
Javier and khabib crew is a true family ♥️
You know he's a real one when he said we all know this is ENTERTAINMENT 1st and SPORT 2nd...wow.#BigFacts
This hour went by fast! Thanks Great talk
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 🔥
An hour with Coach Jav? Awesome!!!
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.
coach Jav is the best
Dagestani holland is a mythical fighter
Great show thank you, guys.👍
Love love love coach. Love you so much. Such a lovely human being
Thanks Schmo. This was AWESOME!
I like how Helen burst laughing randomly thru out the whole pod
Schmo podcast is most underrated podcast of all podcasts known.
MMA ROASTED HAS IT BEAT BY MILES. ADAM, DON FRYE, SEAN MCCORKLE AND ON AVG 600 VIEWS . THAT DISGUSTS ME MORE THAN BRENDAS SHHHWOBS COMEDY AND PERSONALITY
Fantastic podcast. Great stuff
Islam Makhachev, Jiří Procházka, Khamzat Chimaev; we need new guys like these. All the best, coach.
cirlyn gane tooo....he lost against fransis Ngannu....but still he is the one....
@@Bwin20 Jon jones > Cyril gane.
@@C0d0ps srylistically yes..
@@Bwin20 Idk what you wrote but yes.
@C0d0ps yes I agreed...stylistically Jon Jones is better than Cyril gane...
Man I love coach Javier the passion an love he has for his student an I can’t imagine the amount of knowledge that he has I hope to meet him one day an just sit an listen to this guy coach ☝️💯 one of the goats 🐐
Brilliant questions were asked in this podcast
Damn! Helen is so soft spoken . I can listen to her all day long.
And beautiful and knows the game
What a cool guy. Very nice interview
George against Khabib in a grappling match would be amazing. Chael sonnen offered gsp a match against Kamaru Usman. Usman excepted according to chael GSP has not
Why! What's the point..
@@chadmcclain3462 why not?
Get that podcast cracking coach !
Love Helen's point of view
Great vid
Sick intro 🤙🏼
This was a great episode
colby bashed him during nerdbash 2021
@@thecount1 bashed who?
Javier gives me Joey Diaz vibes and I mean that in the best way possible 💯
No even.. no comparison not even a smudge 🤷🏿🤦🏿 jmo ✌🏾😎
@@chadmcclain3462 I can respect your opinion
Likewise
Actually the facts is..The Great Late Mr Abdul Manap is the person that responsible for the Beast he makes all Dagestani fighters... and without doubt a better human being.. Period
BIG ole FAQs 💯
Respect & honor - THE SPARTEN CODE
Coach Javier has a lot of affection for his students. And his students reciprocate that with respect to him in the highest manner possible.
would love to see this on Spotify one day
Schmo, hire me as an intern. I'll be your Jamie. Meeting random MMA personalities is all the pay I'd need. Lol
Coach Jav is just an incredible human being.
the must humble coach
Best coach in the business right here
Lots of people watch bcz of he can talk about khabib.... Khabib is like brand
@31:00 Javier is talking about Gunnar Nelson. And he is icelandic just like the actor who played "The Mountain" from Game of Thrones.
Lol, i paused it a second before they figured it out x)
Hahaha it drove me nuts that they didn't know who the mountain was like damn
Are there any coaches in the UFC hall of fame yet? Coach Javier definitely belongs in the HOF
Not sure. But if there isnt one, they should make it. Em hall of famers became hall of famers coz of coaches.
55:08 Coach Jav let us down. Its not coca cola and BURGERS. Its BOORGER coach. Common!
May God bless our uncle Javier “el águila” Mendez
Bobby only has 4 days left to become an ascended Saiyan. I hope his training is going well in the time chamber.
Time chamber ain't gonna help. He gotta fuse with GSP
FINALLY A LEGIT GUEST
A supportive little brother is every bit as important as supportive big brother in many ways.
That was a smooth transition the Schmo made from bathroom stories to BKFC. Respect
Helen can talk, listen, joke, be interested, switch topics, entertain #bestinthegame
I'm kind of worried that coach Mendez might have a gambling problem🤓
Lol
He did choose to leave the table over reaching in for more cash.
@@duramaxdad lol true
Khabib prevented coach jav from gambling by changing location before sending this is good thing
legend coach!! AKAJAV champion coach
Hell yea
I think I'd like to see Usuman vs Khabib in a grappling match even more than GSP. Would definitely watch either of those though
You should do a podcast in character sometime Dave! Episode 100 maybe?
Ok, the bathroom stories seriously had me 🤣🤣
Yooo coach jav 💯
Coach Javier real Mexican gangster 👊💪 Much love from Palestine 🇵🇸
Brother are you alive?😢
@arifxyz8355 yes brother we are alive. And we always be 🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸
Alhamdulillah stay safe.
@arifxyz8355 thank you Allah bless you and your family
Good Interview homie Schmo,tell Coach Jav to name his Podcast Coach Jav rolling with CAIN Podcast
LEVELS in coaching
Javier: “I love to coach. Everyday I’m there by 8 and I’m going to be late I call someone to tell them I’m going to be late.” Me: “🤔 I do that same exact thing… Revelation - I love driving a concrete truck!
Alhamdulillah 🤲🏼 Allohumma Sholli 'alaa Sayyidina Muhammad
This is the first time I've heard the schmo speak normally and it is highly normal
It’s all about gimmick in this world of sport Entertainment. Without it you won’t be recognized . Sad but true
This is Dave. The Schmo has glasses. 2 diff pipo.
love how the schmo says islam not izlam like the rest of the americans
Izlam izlam izlam sorry not everyone knows how to properly pronounce names like you
@@ronmancini9992 Karen is that you
@@duramaxdad ha sick fuckin name brutha
@@ronmancini9992 I mean pretty easy to pronounce after hearing it correctly once
@@Ahmed-qc1xs I’m not saying it should be said as izlam but I feel a lot of people pronounce it that way without knowing
Its the first time I see the Shmo out of character. He does sound like a likeable guy!
‘ Their my family ‘ that’s strong
i love mandez,,, from southestasia
Mendez best coach in the world
less go
It’s funny he is so use to talking to foreigners he sounds like one when he is explaining something😂
Javier loooves Helen
Great - best wishes to cain
Nobody says it but Coach Jav has the most UFC belts as the head coach.
🤨"Uhhhh... What level are you trying to take this?!?!" 🤣🤣🤣
him and trevor witman crazy
Hello guys! Good morning.
Damn! Even coach Mendez is underestimating Beniel. Him saying Bobby Greene is a tougher fight is bizarre. Makes me even more interested in Islam vs Beniel.
Coach Cain 👊💥
And the rest is history.
Why is coach Javier's mic pixelated
Cain & javier show
Show name: "Sea level Cain and the Gangsta Gambler"
The Mendez & Velazquez Show
Coach, Hasbulla is Islam's neighbour lol
Javier is just such a great guy and an amazing coach.
podcast name: A.QUÉ.A.
Ya'll two are so cute together dude.
Mexican best gangster coatch💫💥
How did we go from greatest combat athletes to poop in the bathroom stories 😂
even if I'm french living in france, with a rusted english, latin flavor is cool, latin is just a little bit spicy... but not too much, with three tongs in every latin mouthes, it's cool, but at the begining, you'd rather use in addition, your names, which are more famous (even in France), close to your new 'brand'. To me EXPERIENCE MMA'S LATIN FLAVOR By Cain 'n Javier (french) Essayez la saveur latine du mma avec Cain et Javier would be nice
Blumaan is another level 💈, congrats man
audio too low :(
Mr Javier even if if french the " latino schow... debate but latino" is cool
Khabib is the best
