Great job by Chael Sonnen leading this sit down. Great questions, timing and letting everybody speak. Great job uncle Chael. Henry, Usman and Khabib. Champions.
Couldn’t have said it better!!!
very humble of uncle Chael, the undefeated, undisputed, all time pound for pound GOAT, to defer to his guests
he’s a really good moderator, makes shit comfortable and no silent awkwardness aloud 💯

Exactly what I thought! Hoping nothing, but the best for efc!

I literally don't think anyone can do an interview like Chael.I wish all these men the best with Eagle FC.
Bisping and Chael are both great in their interviews you know
Yeah honestly hes got a serious talent
Chael is the mvp for Eagle Fc, if i were Khabib i would give Chael company's share and let him do the all the promotional work and i would care about scouting the talented fighters
Uncle Chael’s endorsement has immediately made Eagle FC the number one promotion in MMA.
@@onurhayr1937 100% agree. He knows a thing or two about promotion. He's so intelligent.

Hell yeah Khabib! He’s already 100X the MMA analyst that Dana White is. Hopefully Eagle FC will pressure Dana White into paying his fighters more. Khabib will try and take care of his fighters for sure. Eagle FC just needs to get some momentum in America.
it's true that khabib is the absolute best when it comes to pure mma. his style is perfect to win mma fights. someone like that running a mma promotion is going to be entertaining. EFC needs to grow bigger quick
This makes me feel like MMA is officially an accepted mainstream sport. Professional and entertaining.
@Leo Feenix It might have been but it didn’t MAKE ME FEEL like it was professional…not compared to this for one reason or another.
What would make it feel more professional? lol.. You mean professional like Boxing where everything is corrupted and most fights are rigged?
It's not accepted in Islam, but Khabib is a fake Muslim so I'm not surprised.
@@FriendlyHomie As a muslim, I have to say that out of all so-called "muslim" personalities in the media, sports etc. Khabib is one of, if not the most honest and humble example of how a muslim should act, without losing your grip to your Faith especially in all that fame and money. That being said, Khabib is not perfect. Yes, punching the face is not permitted in Islam, but that does not make him less of a muslim, because everybody has bad sides. But the most importnat thing, muslim or not, is to make the good outweigh the bad

Now I understand what kind of Legacy Khabib wanted to build for his father.
And people said his record stopped at 29-0, now hes aiming to beat the whole of UFC with Eagle FC

@Become Ungovernable what like Dana getting paid to propagate covid? He even said he doesn't care if things shut down
they are def some sort of partners, Kamaru alone being here should say that, UFC is like Disney protecting their interests, they would not let them promote a "competitor" sooo
@@markivan5324 Dana wont clash with Khabib. Khabib has people behind him that scare Dana.
Just 3 random dudes and the Undefeated & Undisputed GOAT of MMA Chael Sonnen
Alhamdulillah.. Eagle FC, here we go!!
This panel is so good. Even ufc couldn't put that kind of panel together but Khabib did that.
Ali did that.
@fax what?
Habib invented panels bratha 🦅🦅🦅☝🏻☝🏻☝🏻☝🏻☝🏻☝🏻☝🏻☝🏻
Yeah but how is the panel younger than all the fighters. Bunch of old guys fighting. Best of luck though
And that panel would whoop some butt. They've got like 1.5 defeats between the whole panel (as Chael is of course undefeated). Any one of them could hold a championship belt in the UFC right now if they wanted (as Chael is of course undefeatable).

There are amazing fighters there and this is going to be a hell of a place to watch fights. Congrats Khabib and Eagle FC
Seriously he’s gonna have some killers in there just pulling from that Dagestan/Russian pipeline.
Chael does such an outstanding job of facilitating and leading the panel. Great questions and so smooth to involve all the guests and bring in something personal to them in regard to the question and the fighter they are talking about.
was thinking the same thing
Chael was an ace pick. Very smart whomever decided this!
Damm chael good!
The GOAT
He is a bell end
I’m so happy for Khabib + what a beautiful production this was 🙌🏼
Signing chael was definitely a smart move by eagle fc, this panel is just awesome. I hope they have a good start in the US, and panels like this will continue in the future.

Just four of the greatest to ever do it all hanging out talking bout fights
Chael could legit turn this promotion into something huge. Khabib was so smart in hiring him. Chael is the best promoter in the game and knows how to talk on camera. Khabib has the money and passion for mma, he should give Chael every opportunity to promote every card.
Can't say how proud of Khabib I am! Someone who really understands the blood sweat and tears that these fighters give to compete at a high level. And I'm confident that Khabib will finally pay fighters what they're worth. So we'll finally have a organization to respect the work that fighters put in and we can enjoy the actual fights, instead of being distracted by pay disputes.
Even if the pay is not same but allow them to be sponsored and help educate them about finances would go a long way. Khabib is actual proof of how someone can create and expand their own brand with the right guidance.
Why do all these fanboys always talk like they know these people. Yall don't know these guys or what they do out side of the internet or cameras. Sometimes I think yall just like to hold nuts for the sake of holding nuts.
Idk if Eagle will ever be as big as the UFC. That's not a diss or that he's incapable of overtaking the UFC but once it does get big and the UFC sees it as a threat, they'll do anything to discredit or buy out eagle FC as they have always done.
But Khabib doesn’t bleed
Yes yes run with honor like father taught, inshalletsauce
Chael Sonnen never ceases to impress. The guy is just good at everything. If the aliens landed and said give us some of your finest human specimens, Chael would be one of those. Super excited to see Khabib's organization take off. He's off to a great start. He needs to get DC on here too.
