Khabib Nurmagomedov Grappling Breakdown

[@ricorida9374]

Fighting with Khabib must feel like drowning

[@slyfer5321]

Drowning must feel like Khabib

[@R08R]

Pretty amazing khabib is lethal in every fase of his mount. Great Breakdown!!

[@SonnyBrown]

Thank you for the support !

[@R08R]

Thanks you!for making me more aware.Watched the Edson fight and made me focus more during the mount.There is top level and then you have Khabib on top of that.

[@chadelliottfahlman]

It's interesting that Khabib's guard is more old-school vale tudo.

[@ufcboxing4434]

Khabib knows how to grapple that’s for sure and his striking is getting better too

[@SonnyBrown]

Yep getting better for sure !

[@DanTheWolfman]

Very Nice, if anyone wants to learn these techniques...double knee ride, top mounted crucifix, turtle riding, s-mount etc I have tons of videos on them all

[@SonnyBrown]

Thanks Dan! Appreciate it !

[@Random-xy5vf]

Do u still have those videos? I would like to see them

[@violetrose1178]

He's very smart ma Shaa Allah

[@kierenkd]

As non fighter (aside from some kickboxing & jujitsu as a teen 20 years ago) I found these videos really interesting. The planning and skill is just amazing

[@SonnyBrown]

Thank you! Glad I could help ! 🙏

[@2triggered2comment55]

My favorite thing that he does and does so well, that is somewhat unique is his leg ride/ wrist ride combo with punches. I'm not 100% what you call this because it's more of a system then 1 technique. But what I mean is when he triangles your left leg reaches around for your right arm dropping your shoulder to the mat every time you post and punches you with his left. If his opponent grabs his left instead of covering up then he just throws the elbow. He is also constantly driving you with his right leg as he rakes your right arm. Which pretty much nullifies anything you can do and you are stuck there until he wants to stop basically or until you completely give your back up but even then you kind of can't roll to your back in this position especially Against the Cage which is the only place I've seen him use this. His ground game is just so high level it's unbelievable. I've never seen anything like it. I've done BJJ for 7 years and wrestled in when i was youmger and I've been a fan of the sport for a very long time and I have really never seen anything like khabib.

[@SonnyBrown]

Thank you 🙏🙏🙏 That is covered in my video on leg mount and I just uploaded a seminar with that exact section in it. Such an amazing move.

[@2triggered2comment55]

Sonny Brown Oh nice man. I came to your breakdown because another random friend on a comment thread suggested I do so and I didn't look through all of your videos which I'm about to do now lol. I'm glad that you decided to break down the leg mount. I dont know that he would beat a vinny or a geo in a pure bjj contest, but one gets the feeling that Khabib's attack is a rubber guard player's nightmare in an mma fight. This may just be my opinion, but from what ive seen I think he is a really bad matchup for Tony Ferguson. I wish we could find out.

[@zpetar]

Its because he learned from true master. I know most people see Khabibs video of him playing with bear cub as a joke. i would recommend to watch it more closely. Khabib at age that young already was showing some skills. But than again take closer look at beers technique. Like this kzbin.info/www/bejne/o5vJgJiChqxsY68 and than this kzbin.info/www/bejne/o5vJgJiChqxsY68 No coaches, no years of training... This bear cub has mastery of martial arts at cellular level. Of course this bear training is just a joke, But than imagine yourself being trained from age this young. Playing with this bear cub like this... For Khabib it all became his 2nd nature. Almost like walking.

[@PennyGeist]

@@zpetar not sure if it was a joke. Khabib constantly reached for double and single leg and bears are just perfectly shaped to defand against these.

[@GaveMeStyle7]

Bratha come to ATT. I smash you and show you real grappling. This isn't about arms only brathar when you learn to use legs in every position no one can stop you. alhamdullilah

[@8sourceenergy895]

Your eye for details is AMAZING. I'm a major fan of your channel. And I thank you, kindly, for sharing your knowledge. Please, continue to keep up the good work/videos. Thanks.

[@SonnyBrown]

8Source Energy8 thanks mate! It take a lot of time to put the videos together so I love the comment as it lets me know they are appreciated.

[@davidv4018]

Some people like fighters that depend on one hook to win the fight, and then the same people say that Khabib is boring and onedimentional.

[@bluejeans4558]

you sir speaks the truth

[@alexvasquez9806]

Awesome videos. Please do more of these takedown / grappling videos.

[@SonnyBrown]

Thank you for the support! I plan to keep on making them !

[@johnw6328]

He also tripods over his opponents guard like Damian Maia and He utilizes the "Side smash" position a lot.

[@fruitypicks6903]

fantastic breakdown and great choice of music

[@SonnyBrown]

Thanks mate! Glad you enjoyed the music as it takes a while to find a song that fits.

[@kingyagami2129]

khabib is a genius of ground games ....evrey fights analysts try to stady him but its always a new things ...between barboza and mj he dont use any technique 2 times and for tony that will be a new things to avoid triangles and D'arcs

[@2triggered2comment55]

King Yagami my opinion is that Khabib's attack is any rubber guard player's nightmare. I feel that Khabib is a bad mismatch for Tony that everyone is over looking. I hope we get to find out.

[@teamgitusome]

khabib looking for perfect position is like watching a wild animal masterfully approaching and securing the kill in its back yard

[@David-999x]

Awesome job dude!!!❤🔥

[@Thambu]

phenomenal....

[@SonnyBrown]

Thank you very much !

[@Bravo6goindark]

Can you make an updated version of this video ?

[@FadliAmir]

u r amazing. i love both of khabib and conormc gregor. i Loke to find someone who has these two kind of skill as striker and grapling combine in 1 person. that person is going to be a perfect fighter of this world.. absolute.!!

[@SonnyBrown]

Thanks for the kind words ! 🙏

[@maryamkim1281]

Great explanations. Thank you.

[@TheInevitableTruth-i2k]

Great commentary... and groovy music!

[@theunknownguy265]

[@ashemleibakngambamoirangch5416]

Khabib is without a doubt an elite grappler.

[@Nick-it2ne]

We need to see Khabib vs Gaethje, elite TDD and Khabib has not been tested against a strong TDD artist since Tibau

[@kaprtyn]

Khabib slept him with traingle

[@manojmuralidharan1339]

love your video..thanks brother

[@SonnyBrown]

manoj muralidharan thanks for the support !

[@ronnybach7881]

Nice Video

[@MoeMoe-rn5xx]

Duuuuude this is mint. Do you do any bjj? How do you know it all?

[@SonnyBrown]

Thank you! I received my BJJ black belt a few weeks ago, been training for 10 years but I do not know it all as we never stop learning!

[@MoeMoe-rn5xx]

Sonny Brown very nice, keep it up mate

[@BenCampbellMMA]

fucking awesome. next can you breakdown his fight against Barboza?

[@SonnyBrown]

haha well after this video I thought I was done with Khabib videos for a while, but after that performance, I might be tempted to do a post-fight analysis.

[@Ace_of_DiscaL]

Very enlightening video into this hero's work, with a rocking soundtrack to match! Track name please?

[@SonnyBrown]

🙏 Thanks for the support, here is the track : Arsenal - Bolero (soviet prog / psych jazz-funk, 1979, Russia, USSR): kzbin.info/www/bejne/a4TJlWmGiNx4d7c

[@Brucelee-pv6uf]

Khabib is my heart my love 😥my life my everything😫😫😫😫 My only dream that keeps me alive everyday to and training so hard is to become Ufc champion 😑❤

[@khan_senpai]

Omfg this guy is an animal... very impressive

[@SonnyBrown]

Cheers for the support!

[@alcottdevalte7440]

This is great, tnx

[@SonnyBrown]

No problems. I appreciate the support!

[@DissFunkShunIll]

Just discovered your channel. Good stuff. Ever considered doing stuff on Alexey Olinek and the Ezekial grip he uses that's almost like wing chun style hand movement only in grappling?

[@SonnyBrown]

Thanks, mate. He is a very interesting grappler, his scarf hold submissions and Ezekiel are fantastic, and I remember him going for what looked like a half stocks in his fight against Travis Browne. I would have to look at more of his matches, but I'm not sure I have the expertise to pick out wing Chun hand movements.

[@DissFunkShunIll]

Thanks for the reply. I just used wing chun as an example for that sheering kind of way that Ezekial chokes are applies as well as how you strip grips not saying that they came from wing chun but that method of gripping that I call Fibonacci and Fulcrum that's also how you use blocks in "philly shell/ crab style boxing. Sorry I don't know many proper terms. I only have 6 months of bjj and 5 months of catch wrestling under my belt.

[@SonnyBrown]

I goet what you saying. It would be very interesting to take a look at , he has a crazy amount of ezekiel chokes too. Ill keep it ini mind.

[@DissFunkShunIll]

Thank you

[@gabrielmchugh6394]

Great work man

[@SonnyBrown]

#Khabib100TakeDowns

[@shrenik]

People always compare all wrestler with GSP.... While not everyday know that GSP was initially a black belt karate guy, than he mastered the art of ground game and now everybody thinks he is just a wrestler..... Genius

[@SonnyBrown]

GSP is awesome! 🙏

[@reeseyreese7954]

Hes known for being one of the best all around fighters of all time

[@DedicatedSpartan]

I'd Love to see Khabib or Askren vs GSP

[@SonnyBrown]

Dream match! Although you have to hope it would turn into a kickboxing match.

[@DedicatedSpartan]

Sonny Brown I'd be satisfied to watch Askren wrestle GSP, since I grapple I won't complain and say they are doing "nothing" on the mat.

[@malva9092]

i heard Khabib said he wants to fight GSP

[@fedotgogolev4064]

I think Tatiana Suarez needs to watch this video ASAP to become Full Khabib mode:D

[@SonnyBrown]

Her performance on the weekend was very impressive, I will have to go and watch some more of her fights.

[@conormcgregorofficial57]

Nice

[@SonnyBrown]

Cheers mate!

[@MrVaDelux]

Missed on of the most efficient tactics he uses in the ground. He traps the opponents arm with his knee making it 10x harder to defend and transition

[@SonnyBrown]

You mean the crucifix ?

[@heath6809]

Fire Montana You mean that technique at 2:40 that he didn't miss at all?

[@VoIPPortland]

RIP Connor. Your trash talking and personality will be sorely missed.

[@SonnyBrown]

Time will tell 🙏

[@ryugo7713]

VOIP Portland who?

[@moses2626]

I'd hate to have to fight this guy. I'd just hire security.

[@Datruthhurts-z4n]

Khabib would drown water

[@jothugs]

WOW

[@SonnyBrown]

Thanks for the support!

[@frenstcht]

Okay, I'm pretty naive, but it looks like the top crucifix and the s-mount are both dangerously susceptible to a vigorous bridge and roll. The first essentially the same as rolling someone over their head when they have you in side mount; the second at an angle described by, say, a line from their near hip to the opposite shoulder, push out against anything you can grab, and then dive in to take their back. Again, I'm naive on this. I'm not claiming to be correct.

[@SonnyBrown]

Well it actually takes the hips out of play from a bridge, So you can bridge fully with your hips but all the weight is on the shoulders. Although hat doesn't mean its not possible if someone is off balance.

[@frenstcht]

@@SonnyBrown Thanks!

[@shah_danial]

It's look seems like safe to get grap by Pyhton than by Khabib 😂

[@SonnyBrown]

He must have a tremendous squeeze! 🙏

[@benbeveridge4228]

the "double wrist lock"? at 2:20, you mean the kimura? wtf

[@SonnyBrown]

Double wrist lick is the original name for it in wrestling and as Khabib does Sambo and not BJJ it was more appropriate.

[@davidv4018]

They called it Kimura after a japanese judo guy called Kimura broke a bjj Gracie's arm with the technique. They didn't know the name of the technique, so they called it Kimura.

[@terrywilson1813]

How about when he traps his opponents arms with his legs and pounds on them while they are completely defenseless...dude is scary on the ground

[@SonnyBrown]

I have a breakdown on that technique here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fHLdpIminNl1iZo

[@Gokrix]

I think my big brother is Khabib Nurmagomedov

[@mysticnal690]

Hi Conor!

[@ryugo7713]

M Ayicenna who?

[@КароматуллоДустиев]

💪💪🔥🔥🔥🦅🦅👍☝️

[@SonnyBrown]

My word!

[@shiishani3302]

His grappling didn't evolve over the last 2 fights. He is focused on his striking a lot more since years.

[@mfp5585]

I see a lot of judo ne waza moves here.

[@PATEL.072]

👌👌

[@SonnyBrown]

Ya got me :)

[@baharuddinanwar1869]

be careful that connor will use oil that is applied to the hands and feet before fighting the khabib

[@ryugo7713]

Baharuddin Anwar who?

[@0MachineElves0]

Think you know it all mate?!

[@SonnyBrown]

Not at all. There is too much to know so its just a process of constant learning.

[@0MachineElves0]

Pretty amateurish sounding actually.

[@SonnyBrown]

PH I understand this as you can take many different levels of analysis on any given topic and you may be used to something more in depth. That is reasonable. I appreciate the feedback.

[@borisyeltsin6293]

lol wtf? where's your breakdown?

[@ashmit8225]

Rip McGregor

[@ryugo7713]

Ashmit Bhatta who?

[@jakep8678]

Dumb people - "Khabib can wrestle but he can't swing", Tell that to Conor's chin.

[@mikecook6164]

Guy... Why is that intro so loud...

[@SonnyBrown]

Mike Cook I'm new to video editing but will fix it for the next one.

[@mikecook6164]

Greatly appreciated.

[@SamirSamir-yb6my]

Why are you all whining so much? Not a single fighter in the UFC can beat Habib.

Islam breakdown?

Thumbs down for the intro music

No problems Regan, I have learned to change the music around for future videos!

[@bharathu5354]

What's wrong with his eyes? He looks like he lives in constant fear of someone or something! At the same time the way he looks there is a missing shine. Is it just my observation or Majority of Khabib fans seem to be propagandist because they belong to the same religion. They seem more driven to be fans because of their religious aliegence than actually the game. That's an undeniable fact!

[@SonnyBrown]

With his eyes ? Not sure !

[@normanosborn3319]

Why are you overthinking? Is it a research study for RSS?
