Javier is like honey man. Dude just flows. Criminally under rated for what he’s done for the sport.

[@andygirone7442]

"Javier is like honey man" he leaves you sticky

[@drduandada4218]

FACTS !

Crazy Bob Cook 2

[@slapfighting]

He actually sells honey, if you follow his Instagram 😂😂

Goat coach Javier

[@rocknrolljoe7528]

I missed Coach Jav! Can't wait to listen! Thanks guys.

[@SunFlowerBabyyy]

This was such an amazing interview!!!!! Javy is soooo badass! So damn humble. Great job guys!

[@brucewayne-bv4ok]

*AKA is one of the best gyms out there which has Zero drama and steroid cheaters*

[@drunkenmmamaster419]

Schmo really brings out the best in everyone he interviews keep it up

[@zakaria8085]

But this is not the schmo

[@TheFireStarter1215]

Big respect for Javier repping his old, and one of his greatest, students honor in Frank Shamrock. I had a feeling he'd back him once Schmo finished his question. As a Mexican, this meant a lot to me to see in MMA. Straight honor.

[@Onlybadtakes2589]

Him and Ariel are the only ones giving Frank the love

[@jtsnow8440]

Amazing interview. Coach Jav is always so positive and complimentary without ever coming off as contrived or insincere. Completely agree with the way he looks at Cejudo

[@elsuperguapo971]

We love Coach Javier in México. 🇲🇽

[@bishalsiwakoti1152]

wow...javier again...wasnt exPECTING IT..love it to the t

[@ImranKhan-gs2hy]

Tony vs Khabib in TUF! 🔥💣🔫🔪💰

[@violetrose7956]

Awesome coach

[@basexii7932]

You've been on youtube for years now supporting Khabib lol. Not stalking or anything but yeah. 😉

[@keithkunik3229]

Thunder!!! Thunder!! Thunder Javier hooooooooo

[@katana_3558]

Great interview ...coach is always humble

[@SubJudoWrestle]

New lesson to fighters: Bring your own scale

[@ynilupac]

Schmo your chemistry and flow with javier is the best. GOAT

[@Cornell90]

Always respected this guy and he's vibe. So respectful and humble it seems, that goes along way in every aspect of life.

[@anissahuseinbaraf322]

I will watch that Ultimate fighter season if Khabib and Tony are the coaches

[@sidfara6362]

awesome podcast, always for jav

[@whiskythrottle8421]

Can’t believe they didn’t bring up ole Rockhold and Costa

[@aref6561]

wow this is such a great interview thank you so much

[@mohammedanas4330]

Love you coach...

[@goby3807]

Increase the volume next time please.

[@Eugenepanels]

So weird seeing schmo off character lol.

[@ryanackert1536]

Agreed

[@ali-mk4of]

I love jav.

[@Patronusman77]

JAV!! pronouncing every fighter name wrong LOL!!! hes the man tho

[@sarfrazali8362]

Good

[@casus4781]

How hard could it be to set the mics to the same volume in 2022?

[@millertime7761]

Schmo you are to young to remember how dominant Cyborg was from 2008 to now, she only has 1 loss since then. I would like to know if John. Jones is on any of your list, he was popped

[@jpsavagery2145]

Javier's H.O.F talk is spot on... he should open up the MMA H.O.F spot, he's definitely got enough money to do it!!!

[@peaceling9826]

❤

[@bakkendrt7972]

Seattle Batman’s name is Phoenix Jones He actually is a good fighter, the police department would let him throw down with dudes in the street mostly because Washington state is a mutual combat state.

[@brandonweiss8364]

Love ya Schmo but how do you not know Phoenix Jones? Google/KZbin him. He was like the real life Kickass. His adopted brother Caros fought in the UFC and Strikeforce. They didn’t like each other and fought in WSOF in 2016. Good MMA lore from not long ago

[@ufc9ja]

Helen Yee with the Yeessh.... Jugsssss

[@bewiththetruthalways5637]

Busted for gears will leave cyborg out of GOAT discussion but can't apply to Jones. Lmao

[@shadowzeenko3653]

She lost ot Nunes.

[@rizkyarieframadhan4893]

I didn't believe coach almost got scammed

[@ronjon4206]

How in the world did you leave Kayla Harrison out of the Mt. Rush 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

[@khaldrogo4460]

They Dint talk about cain

[@bobbysmith9881]

Cyborg should be #1 on women's Mt. Rushmore!💯

[@merkog7444]

AKA should move to dagestan

[@myownlilbubble]

Why? They are good just where they are.

[@ali-mk4of]

@@myownlilbubble fr, khabib's father already got a gym there

[@Onlybadtakes2589]

Javier and Ariel have very similar views in MMA and the HOF issue. Sucks that he doesnt like mma media

[@bispbingseye6693]

bruh miesha Tate should def be on that list

[@dingusbro925]

Why do athletes that are average(or slightly above average) make the best coaches?

[@MrBen580]

In manga logic, the more talented a person is, the less they will relate to a normal athlete and therefore can't explain something that comes naturally to them.

[@Fred12781]

Shannon rich had worked fights

[@sekanssekans7059]

Javier really got Nigerian Princed .... c'mon man

[@TheFireStarter1215]

Hey, are y'all high in this video? Schmo's smooth, chill vibe & Helen laughing at the 7000+ pull up record like that gave me the same energy as me and my old lady baked as cakes...

[@vaginbob5153]

I think you mean "blackman" not batman schmo

[@majidhussain3896]

Islam is the truth. Read the Qur'an

[@MT-eo6tq]

What about Christianity and Judaism tough, goofy ?

[@achillesmcc5349]

In terms of impact in the sport, Gina Carano is definitely top 5.

[@mikecarter5627]

Islam beats Khamzat

[@Saeid415]

Unfortunately Habib retired

[@loveforthe90s]

“Charles ovara”

[@jonahrice8203]

Love Jav but I feel like he's bullshitting about not knowing Sean Brady

[@zaidmohammed2909]

Cringe out please

[@theeagle2375]

I kidda enjoy henry cringe, i find it funny

[@nickpappas17]

Weili over Meisha Tate? Fucking criminal

[@matthewgilliam4712]

i haven't watched the whole vid but if ur saying it's crazy to say Weili can beat Meisha then that's crazy Only thing Meisha has over Weili is experience and her high level wrestling which Weili can still wrestle enough to scramble and have good defense on the ground I'd like to see Meisha win but Weili is so much stronger and explosive I doubt it

[@MDP673NJ1]

Charles beats Islam calls out Khabib...that would be awesome

[@khaldrogo4460]

Charles will never be champ again
