Thank You !
Khabib fought him while he was on the juice and younger Islam fought him while he was outta his prime and offa the juice he also probably had ring rust but still impressive that Islam did what he did
Indeed. GT was eating nothing but horse meat during his match w/Khabib.
Tibau was still way oversized when he fought Islam. He was juiced to the gills against khabib. Tibau is one of those fighters who cuts weight to have an advantage. Guy should be fighting at middleweight.
He was also juiced against Islam but several years older.
@@dyn0spectrum horse beef
You know Islam got popped by USADA too right? And they convniently swept it under the rug and didn't sanction him...
Crazy, Tibau with all those muscles couldn’t even hurt Khabib. How clean Khabib looked after that fight.
Tibau tested positive he was juiced up this fight
Khabib wasn’t anywhere near as good as when he was champ this fight too 28-30 yr old khabib mauls a young juiced tibau easy
And people say khabib is big bruh hes not
That’s what you took from that fight? Lmao Khabib fans
@@truthsouls2003 he's like 200+ when not fighting gtfo
he was juiced and khabib still won, lions heart
Khabib's striking looks like if you were trying to look in to a cave then suddenly a caveman came running at you punching with combinations as he's rushing you
LMAO
This fight was before Khabib transition to AKA!💪🏻
Yea I always noticed that he has sort of barbaric/stone age type behavior as far as fighting and fighting mannerisms is concerned. And the way he moves in his earlier career in the ufc cements this theory of mine . The guy clearly has an understanding of MMA and footwork and how to fight efficiently. My thing is though I always felt like he moved sort of like wild and sloppy but looking back on it it's those barbaric tendencies I was talking about like a dominant/alpha type of mentality when he fights even how he moves . If that makes sense
😂😂
You can't help but love Islam as a person and fighter, So humble and respectful, he comes from a poor childhood and now so many people are looking up to him, big respect!
he won the title and started calling volk a little man 2 minutes later. very respectful.
@@throwdownthenhoedown9074 these guys take punches to the head for a living, he won't be offended by being called short lol
@@throwdownthenhoedown9074 Bruh you can't possibly be that sensitive. Ain't no way you're that weak minded.
Isn't that the story of anyone who has stepped into the cage? I don't know any fighter without a story of poor childhood. İf anything it's a neccessity to become a warrior fighting to get out of your situation. Is there any fighter who have come from rich background?
@@TheHorus471 Israel Adesanya came from a wealthy family, I think so did Cerrone.
UFC fans are so petty, they ignore that Tibau was clearly on steroids just because they want to see Khabib lose so badly but then all of a sudden care about drugs when it's a fighter they hate or wanna see lose like Jon Jones. These same people suck off Chael Sonnen who was also abusing steroids but again, they completely ignore it when it's a fighter they like.
you're the petty one. and stupid. everyone is cheating and you make a deal about tibau 10 years later because you want to defend khabib who clearly lost this fight. tibau didnt pop. he won, but people like you wont accept. 😪😪😪
The irony, and perhaps hypocrisy, of your statement is you fail to acknowledge that Islam also got popped by USADA for taking PEDs in 2016.
Just like Islam was juiced in 2016 when he was caught by USADA and made some lame excuse that he didn't know lol
ouch, yeah no no i think your right lmao
@@AP-zq6hv nice fantasy story.
Khabib fought him while he was on steroids and younger Islam fought him while he was out of his prime and not on steroids
Tibau's upper-body looks like a middleweight
Tibau cuts from 200lbs. Of course he is.
The size difference bro
He's very short,
@@gamespotlive3673Gleison Tibau and Khabib are both the same height 5‘8.
Tibau was clearly off the sauce when he fought Islam
Funny you say that because Islam got popped by USADA not too long after Tibau did lol.
Still doesnt matter if u use steroids for one year your muscle still retains benefits even 10 years after the last cycle
@@ysl6549 that’s absolute bullshit
@@ysl6549 no it doesn’t
@@ysl6549 true dude, I once ate a bunch of eggs, I've never needed to eat protein ever again.
Remember Khabib vs Tibau + juice
Also not 40 tibau
Man Islam has that punch not gonna lie
Islam's hands are fast and precise
@@mommasboy34 yeppppp
@@mommasboy34 One week ago people would’ve been attacking you for that comment now they are in hush mode they are still in shock
@@thanosbustedinyourmum I feel like Islam's plan is to take all the things people said Khabib didn't do and put them in hush mood. Like moving to welterweight and so on. (Even though we all know no one was beating the guy, just going to silence them anyway)
1:05 look at Tibau's body, he looks more ripped than a body builder that's juiced to the gills, I wouldn't be surprised if he's +190lbs in the cage, I mean the meme for this fight is '300lbs Tibau'.
yeh well khabib didnt reach his final form then and he still did enough to win, islam is a better striker and he proved it vs olivera. there is even more room for islam to improve.
How did he do enough to win? Khabib was officially 0-13, while Tibau was credited with one takedown, which occurred in round three. Tibau won the head strike battle 15-13 and the body strike battle 13-7. You can see how shocked the commentators were with that robbery
Tibau looks juiced asf when he fought Khabib, not saying he was though…😉😉
Dude totally was, look at those muscles compared to extremely strong Khabib.
Just like how Islam was juiced too when he got caught by USADA in 2016. Funny how the fans like to pick and choose...
@@rustyshackleford8473 his doctor recommended it after he had heart surgery. After an investigation by usada they didn’t suspend or fine Islam and even relaxed the guideline for the certain drug found in islams body. Seeing as how you commented this so many times I’m just curious.. how mad were you when olivera tapped?
@@bangbang6317 you are on his ass💪🏽
@@rustyshackleford8473 rip
Nice timing uploading this video, for algorithms baby! Islam, you're absolutely monster!
juiced up Tibau was the original Paulo Costa
Kahabib striking hilarious. Yeti incoming.
It is🤣
it is.. lmao.. but he is getting better and better..
@@beerz6393 💯
That punch was similar to the one thrown at Oliveira before submitting him
Not at all, that was more of a straight push into left hook, this was more of an overhead left
Nah its different
Thank you for the video I didn't know about all this stuff great fight indeed
very smart start with the kick he then wanted to show his kick... right into the overhand play your own game
Nothing to take away from Islam, but Khabib fought a Tibau who was juiced to the gills, huge, and who I think was at his best/peak here.
I know he Gleason was already falling down, but I still love the way Islam secures his knee otw down
I remember, most people thought Tibau should've been given the W after that fight.
Khabib was training with K-Dojo out of New Jersey at the time. AKA made him a much better fighter. And interestingly, a better wrestler.
What a great video!
Islam is a better boxer than Khabib, no doubt about that. Both are excellent wrestlers and just wonderful to see. I am so grateful for the Machachev vs Volkanovski fight and we deserve to see a rematch because it would be so entertaining.
If Olivera wilr not be careful, he will sleep early like that in his rematch with Islam!
Tibau probably lucky going out that quickly tbh
I like how Khabib still won every round of his toughest fight 🦅🇷🇺
Never bled too.... Whole career. Not a drop or scratch, literally, like what? Hows that possible???
He never though. Gleison won that fight. Whether or not he was juiced he got robbed
@@EraserTraceur khabib only bleed and bruise of his training. In real fight, he's prepared
You’re on drugs if you think he won every round
@@jonpictogramjones4045 and what makes you think that you are not on drugs?
I mean no matter what Tibua was on the his takedown defence was expressive
He really was T-ibau back in the day
Tibau was juiced to the gills 😱😱
Khbib is a king at thai game man 🙏👌👁
dude is so juiced up that Khabib looks like a Bantamweight next to this guy
This is how juice addicts all perform when they come off. 🤣🤣
Khabib get destroyed by that guy! that fighter is amazing!!respect! the eagle khabib is just lucky.
Makhachev and Khabib are very good fighters. But Makhachev had bit of a luck as well.
Charles looked like he can't believe Islam is that much better like he felt like he can't be that much better and it wasn't his night and the way his been dismantling people on that 11 winstreak run if I was him I wouldn't believe it too
Islam is better then olivera everywhere this time someone had a good enough ground game to finish him after they dropped him
Islam is brave and smart. He pictures his plan then execute it. Hi whole being work in harmony toward the target. Then of course God helps him as we think he is a good and humble person.
Why are all these Khabib fans trying to discredit Islam's win to make khabib look good...they should be happy for Islam like Khabib is...people don't wanna come to terms with the fact that Islam is the better fighter
Islam does have power in his left hand
Khabib no.1 MMA GOAT, Islam will follow
Looks like lightweight + middleweight fight tbh 🤣🤣🤣
And they say that big muscles doesn't help
It does if you also have skills
it's not the muscles, it's the weight. if the short guy is full of muscles but his opponent is a tall average built guy the same weight as him, the fight will be equal.
@@oblivion5390 weight plus strength and density of the muscles.
Glison Tibau and Adriano Martin are fathers to Dagestan
Tibau got knocked tf out by Islam.
Well damn i had no idea the eagle almost lost this fight.
@The Hard Stuff exactly lol well said
@The Hard Stuff let's see the stats: Nurmagomedov was officially 0-13, while Tibau was credited with one takedown, which occurred in round three. Tibau won the head strike battle 15-13 and the body strike battle 13-7. Tibau was robbed get over it
@The Hard Stuff did you even watch the fight? Where was the 'lay and pray'? Truth is Gleison outclassed Khabib in that fight. landed the cleaner,harder shots and stuffed all takedowns whilst getting one of his own. People just seem to forget about this fight and lick the guys ass hole so much they'll turn a blind eye to it because it's not what they want to see. There's no way you can score that fight for Khabib.
@The Hard Stuff what're you talking about mate. Vera & Aldo were even on significant strikes and Aldo had more takedowns and won the fight. You're right about the point that stats don't tell the full story but that fight doesn't prove your point 🤣. Also You're saying Khabib looked better In the fight but got outstruck and outgrappled. How do you work that?
@The Hard Stuff oh I see you don't form your own opinions. Just see something on the internet and take it as the truth. Fair enough
To be fair Khabib fought him pre USADA
Khabib def had the control time and good counters, harder strikes. He was also juiced to the gills. Islam just KO’d him lol. Clearly juiced to the gills too.
Tibau looks like a heavy weight. 😂
Well no wonder khabib had problems taking down a man 30pounds heavier. That's also the same reason Khabib had so much success at lightweight being heavier than most of his opponents
Khabib didn’t learn how to cage wrestle til he joined aka
Got a taste of his own medicine. Dagestani weight bullies
Dustin weighed more than khabib but keep ok crying 😂
And the whole weight bully argument is so dumb,by your logic Charles,Dustin,chandler are also weight bully’s because they weigh more than khabib
@@mikel.5414 Chandler and Dustin are as well. Idk about Dustin weighing more than khabib tho.
this referee has a problem
Beniel dariush
Why can't people accept that khabib was having an off night. Still swept the scorecards in the judges eyes. Could have been I'll, hard weight cut whatever the case it's a win and it's old. Let it rest on Khabib's part
Yeah especially considering tibau was juiced to the gills
before AKA vs after AKA
Khabib looked like he got he got knocked out after a close decision win against a juiced up Tibau dude expected much more from himself
1:35
Islam is just a beast.. Khabib is just not that athletic.. Khabib fans out here talking about Tibau being juiced and all that, who cares..Islam is just the better fighter
Nick Diaz was a kid when he beat this dude
Nick Diaz was a welterweight in his prime fighting this tibau,khabib was a lightweight and wasn’t in his prime fighting this tibau
@@mikel.5414 he was a kid not in his prime he was 19 years old fighting savages in the UFC
@Fonfons if you younger stinger and faster and the supposed “GOAT” he should have been easy to rag doll right? Glaesion ain’t nobody special.
@Fonfons we giving dude prop for beating guys 15 years older so why not?
@@crimsonking4151 why still talk after islam has shown hes the goat after khabib?
Bro you can just tell by tibaus shoulders from khabibs to islams fight at first their enormous the. Agaisnt islam their tiny
Wow Khabib was having some difficulty early on with a cheater….he has since made up for it!
I think Islam will be a better fighter than Khabib. He is most certainly the better athlete
All the Khabib fans are trying to discredit Islam's win which is mind blowing...even Khabib himself is embarrassed with his fans 4 sho😂
Damn. Kahbib lost that shit. Never saw that. He knows it too. U can see it i. His face
I fuck with khabib but he lost that fight. Tibeau was juicing for sure though
Nope. Khabib won that fight.
Gielson Usada Tibau
Conor keeps using his Twitter fingers to try an stay relevant.
The same punch dropped olivera
No.
aint no way that he is natural at that time he isnt 155 bruh its not pound for pound is ufc corrupted?
1 punch KO
Tony destroyed Tibau
Glieson the juice king taibu
Lol that wasn’t khabibs toughest opponent khabib was just significantly worse then than when he fought his toughest opponents like mcgregor
Khabib lost though😂😂😂..Islam had to avenge him
@@Chille10 not even gonna argu but that fight was judged under a different scoring system than modern mma
@@NeoValeTudo you don't have to argue you have two eyes I'd assume so that's good enough..his friend who's more athletic and can really fight had to avenge him
@@Chille10 I’m agreeing with you why or you arguing back
@@NeoValeTudo oh shoot I thought you were arguing, my bad...it was a misunderstanding
Islam Makachev is Khabib with knockout power. Islam would have knockout Conor in UFC 229. Fully Juiced Tibau is the only fighter that able to fight Khabib competitively. Its crazy Tibau's cheek is cut by a wrestler! Yes, the Unjuiced Tibau is older but Islam striking is better, faster & stronger than Khabib.
This is like MMA math. Makhachev was stopped in his 13th fight while Khabib retired undefeated in 29. Also, Conor was Khabib's toughest opponent since he was the only fighter that Khabib lost a round to. I'm not trying to take anything away from Islam. He just doesn't compare to Khabib at this point in time.
I do believe that Charles Oliveira is a better win than Conor McGregor. I think Islam Makhachev is being set up to eventually surpass Khabib Nurmagomedov, because I think that’s what Khabib wants.
@@frewtlewps1152 nothing you said is relevant to anything that I said. There's always some guy in the comments having a conversation that no one else is having. Stop.
He lost a round to gaejthe too, which I don't agree with but it's what the judges said
now tell me who win while fighting with tibau let tibau win first although ufc announce khabib win! Bigboobcasual
Yep.Juiced.
So tibeau came back a smaller man and got the business🤔🤔🤔🤔
khabib striking not bad
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Not s fair comparison, but I do think Islam is more skilled than khabib
Islam left hand have KO Power he destroyed olivera too
Gelson win for me
And the earth is flat😂
Tibau
هذا يعني أسلام مخاشيف مقاتل متكامل افضل من حبيب

@@Sprite_525 Yeah I know
Sambo > bjj
dude was on so many steroids
That bum lost to gleeson
Khabibs striking is so bad.
He came back old and tiny without his roids. also he got caught. So you can't use this fight to prove anything. He also had Khabib training him for the guy he fought before.
Why are we celebrating this garbage. Dude was out of the octagon for 2 years. If it would have ended any other way, it would have made the Dagi’s look so stupid…
Khabib was trash at striking and getting knocked down. I don't think he won that fight, judges decision and he was getting messed up.
undefeated. lololololololol
Islam looks way bigger thn khabib
