Zabit Magomedsharipov Reveals He Broke His Hand in Locker Room Prior To UFC 223

[@joneskey3950]

Dagestan is smaller than the size of West Virginia and Ali has brought 30 fighters from there into UFC in the last year.

[@joneskey3950]

BJJ Fiend I agree with you sir, global conflict and war are in many parts of the world. I spoke with a guy from Ossetia in college, where some of the best wrestlers come from in Russia. He mentioned that you're dad wrestled, your uncle, your brother and your son. Also the the neighbor next door. It sounds like a cultural thing.

[@gadirhasanov9384]

mike roy it's true I come from the Caucasus and there everyone wrestles

[@alis9554]

It is more of a cultural and global conflict thing because I come from Afghanistan and people arent scared of these small things, they came up from nothing and one thing that has been emphasized in my culture is to have guts and to never be scared of anybody but God, and thats the case with Khabib and most of these Dagestani people.

[@johnnysuaveryanschannelfor696]

Dagestan is apparently a dedicated and designated training ground for martial arts.

[@abdulmunaf4374]

There is something in the water of Dagestan

[@cheezfried]

peter21 He had a staph infection, everybody gasses with staph.

[@junaidzaka2365]

he had staph man. Plus if you spin as much as he does in a fight, you are definitely going to gas out

[@socombx8326]

How TF u fight with a broken hand, these guys never cease to amaze me

[@riccardo3622]

depends of the gravity of the broke, also adrenaline

[@bbrockRailFan]

I am not impressed with any person who willingly breaks his own hand because they are upset. This shows me this individual should not be fighting. Its a sign of mental illness. Dana needs to control his fighters allot more. It obvious he is not always hiring stable people. Look at Conner McGreggor. Common when is it going to stop letting some fighters enter the ring. Its like giving a small child allot of money. Its also obvious some of these so called proffesional athletes are raging lunatics or very childish. Common Dana you need to hire adults not children. UFC is not getting better its getting worse. Dana needs to hire fighters who are mentally stable and have at the bar minimum a high school diploma and sound mind. I am seeing fighters with the mentality of a teenager. I am getting the impression some of these fighters are nothing more than criminals, thugs and immature children. I wouldnt be surprised someday Dana will hire a fighter that was in prison for murder or terrorism. Like this yahoo I dont remotely trust him.

[@kevinquartemont2313]

[@gusgrau3594]

frozenwalkway Even though he may not have felt it, due to the adrenaline how would he have been so freaking smooth. I mean, has he trained with a hand tied behind his back or something?! It’s mind-numbing how ridiculously good he was.

Ariel: Do you enjoy fighting with a guy that has that kind of reaction? Zabit: да, мне очень понравился бой. Во время боя я люблю быть очень быстрым и стараюсь не пораниться да, мне очень понравился бой. Во время боя я люблю быть очень быстрым и стараюсь не пораниться. Translator: Yes.

There is something about this Dagistani guys , that calmness man its killer thing to have same as great Fedor and khabib , you can say this is a real deal right here

[@mynamessunday4769]

Fedor isn't Dagestani he's Russian and Ukranian. Idk how some people can even consider him being Dagestani. He doesn't look Dagestani and he wore a big cross on his neck to every fight. He's actually a very religious christian

[@zaynmalikhighnotes9688]

I recommend Habib as translator for Zabit when he trash talks with Holloway it will be funny

[@ronalbertson9995]

God bless u Zabit.

[@Mistabanned]

Ali needs to hire a professional Russian translator, not have fighters translate for other fighters.

[@m3liagr33n6]

William Faulkner yes I agreed

[@arminius6506]

He has 35 fighters from Dagestan, Ali need to launch a school where they will teach Russians to speak English 😊

[@shaabacha9175]

[@Баир-ю7ф]

I'm from Russia and i'm agreed too. Many places are translated incorrectly. No main idea of the text is saved. but some thought are distorted.

Its looks like zabit that lonely guy who love watching anime and always sits alone 😂 and that makes me love him more tbh ! Future champ 👍🏼

[@andriystashko-ziabletsov7893]

You're not allowed to watch anime in Dagestan.

[@THIS---GUY]

Yair V Zabit will be an awesome fight

[@2triggered2comment55]

This Guy i think he would dominate Yair with the grqppling honestly. I could see that being really one sided. I do want that fight for Zab though. Yair was on a crazy trajectory, but he got way exposed with the first really good wrestler that he fought. Zabit has the same similar flashy striking like Yair, and theyre both definitely sick with it. Zabit also has world class Dagestani wrestling. He is also a 4x time wushu sanda champion. Its the same martial aet Jet Li does. People want to see this guy. Ive never seen anything like it. He is awesome.

[@kurt6447]

2triggered 2comment He is gassed after 3 rounds. 5 rounds against a top 5 guy will be the real test for him

[@grady187]

Nice of Ali to let him talk

[@Kev80ification]

Aaron Fink Ali seems like a good guy, very loyal to his fighters

[@grady187]

Agreed! He just loves talking as much as he loves his fighters.

[@josesoto9285]

Yeah honestly I think he’s trying too hard to hype him up, like ok bro, we already hyped up, we just wanna see what the man has to say!

[@kamildemir5791]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/nqSYaJaPgMZ2prc

[@andriystashko-ziabletsov7893]

To be fair, it didn't seem like Zabit really wanted to talk. He's very shy and humble. Maybe nor used to cameras and popularity yet?

[@samiahmed6875]

Chechnya and Dagestan border states produce 90% of Russias national fighters always winning championships. Ali just took the opportunity to bring it to us in the world.

[@sogf7940]

@Yué Lî As I heard in Dagestan they use steroids and has chicken jaws

[@emsparrow4131]

Such a humble man, mashallah, but he is so calm during fight its scary. Future champ.

[@HevyToy]

khabib is my favorite fighter, but this guy is my second favorite, can not wait to see his next fights and his rise to the championships! what a man

[@turbonbc]

These guys that don't care about society's expectations, looks, image, character, ego ect.. are always known to be geniuses in their field because the more you know, the less you care what others think. Just look at Einstein lol.. Real Talk.. Being a true fan of Bruce Lee and his way of martial arts, i never really saw any impressive fighters in the UFC that fought like i thought in my mind and the way he taught until this guy came around. I think it doesn't get better than Zabit. If Conor wants to prove himself as the *greatest fighter* he should give Zabit a crack but i honestly think Zabit will School him.

[@umorictprikolnov992]

Полностью с Вами согласен. У меня теже мысли.

[@kiko1605]

Please tell me there are also Heavyweights in Dagestan!?? That would be something!! These guys are warriors man

[@2triggered2comment55]

kiko1605 dude Sadulaev, arguably the greatest freestyle wrestler of all time and 21 or 22 yrs old. He just won gold at Rio. He has teched his way through literally the hardest wrestling comps in the world like it was nothing. He got scored on more times in one match at Russian heavyweight narionals than he had been in like the 3 or 4 previous comps, including the Olympics. An american just beat him after moving up to heavyweight but he has rolled everyone so bad up to last fall he is still looked at as the goat. If he came to mma it would be serious. He would ragdoll DC and Stipe and Cain in a pure wrestling match.. and again, he is super young.

[@kiko1605]

Thanks! He would be a great one, bring him to the UFC!! BUT there must be a 2mtr high dude somewhere in Dagastan, thats the one!!

[@2triggered2comment55]

kiko1605 I would love it if they brought him to the UFC but you have to understand that wrestling is Russia's national sport and he is one of the greatest to ever do it so he is pretty much like the Michael Jordan of their national sport over there. Hopefully after wrestling though he comes to Eagles and becomes an MMA fighter because he would totally be a shoo-in to the UFC. He is also one of Khabib's friends so that is a plus.

[@weex3210]

Heavyweight Ufc fighter from Dagestan ? we have Antigulov, Ruslan Magomedov and Shamil Abdurakimov but is hard for dagestani to come in ufc if they have not a good manager like Ali

[@micoberss5579]

There is one in Ufc, Ruslan Magomedov. There are couple more, though I don't remember their names

[@Zh4crazy]

I’m impressed by the translators math skills; when he got asked his regular weight he answered 77-78kg. The translator said 170lbs without thinking twice. I checked and he did the math pretty much perfectly.

Math is his middle name
