This Country Produces the DEADLIEST Fighters

[@sakibhasan9077]

Dagestan is now a MMA brand,!!!

[@TheShrouded]

For decades when USA and Russia (USSR before) dominated Olympics wrestling. Most of the Russian wrestlers were from Dagestan. They were just known as Russians

[@3lastname390]

Which is crazy, considering how small Dagestan and it's population is compare one of our top wrestling state in Pennsylvania. We have over 2x their land mass, and 4x their population. While Penn produce elite college wrestler, Dagestan is pumping out Olympic wresters

[@thinkbeforeyoutype7106]

The reason why they produced incredible fighters is because of their faith. They avoid the 5 deadly sins (drugs, alcohol, gambling, sexual immorality, and usury (interest/debt). This is what destroys individuals and society as collective. Hope that helps. Assalaamu Alaykum

Lol you clearly know nothing. Sex slaves are allowed, concubines are allowed. Afghanistan sells opium as one of its main exports.

0:45 Chine Side😂😂😂Dagestan, Chechnya, Cherkessia, Balkaria, Adygeya, Ingushetia, Ossetia, Abkhazia. This is all the Russian Caucasus. This is not the Chinese side of Russia, i.e. not the East, but the South of Russia. Beyond the Caucasus lie Georgia, Armenia and Azerbaijan, also former Russian provinces that Moscow has carved out for independent rule. Before that, Russia bordered on the Ottoman and Persian Empires. Also, this is the Turkish Iranian side of Russia.

[@nickmonadi]

Exactly

[@tarzanstrickland]

they are not turkish or iranian, Azerbaijan borders that to the south yes, but this is the Caucus. Khabib is a Caucasian Avar, Makhachev is a Caucasian Lak, indigenous Caucus people

Dagestan is the southeast Russian border, washed by the Caspian see from one side and surrounded by the northern Caucasus mountain ridge, neighbor to Chechnya, and bordering with Azerbaijan, Georgia by land and Turkmenistan, Kazakhstan and Iran by sea. Dagestan used to be one of the centers of the Silk way and fought every major empire there was, Mongols, Arabs, Persians and Alexander the Great. Finally after a 150 year old long Russian empire colonization of Caucasus and direct 35 year old war again Russian Empire became the part of it.

Bro is trying to misappropriate the history of Georgia. The "Dagestani" people were established by the leftovers of the long wars Georgia had with Persians and Turks. They are Mix of Persians, Turks and other ethnic groups. There was no such thing as "Dagestan" in early history. "The word Dagestan is of Turkish and Persian origin, directly translating to - "Land of the Mountains"

[@OopsPoops]

Name one of our national who is Turkish or Iranian, except Azerbaijanian ppl who live in south of Dagestan (with all respect for them, and they are our brothers and dagestanians as well)

[@tarzanstrickland]

@@lll-qr4yu thats not true... They are native people of the Caucuses... Khabib is an Avar, Islam is a Lak... These are indigenous Caucasian tribes... not to be mistaken for the people of other regions that go by the same name... The Avars and Laks of the Caucasus are the indigenous peoples of those regions, and THEY were invaded by foreign people who brought the Muslim religion there.

As an American mma fan, I totally agree. That region was always a hot bed for wrestling and combat sports. Brazil has a rich history of dominance in the UFC/MMA. The Caucasus Region is the new Brazil. And the Nurmagomedov are the new Gracie.

The best fighter to come is Usman who currently is the champion in the bellator. He’s the most talented fighter in the gym, he’s umars brother

[@El_turco82]

The people forget also that Islam has almost the longest win streak in UFC,he have won 14 fights in a row,only Anderson Silva have more with 16 win streak,so if he keep fighting like that maybe he can brake the record and that almost unbeatable as far as the record is concerned

[@jonnyandali]

He needs to work on his geography. Dagestan isn't the China side. 😅

[@レーキムの皮]

He probably thought it was near Kazakhstan

[@tarzanstrickland]

exactly it could be called the Ukrainian side.. The Caucus extended north to Ukraine before Russia claimed that land. They are not Central Asian, but indigenous Caucasians, Eastern European

[@aftabon]

Is this a casual channel 😅😅

[@fadhli4413]

👍

[@feirand]

I don't know why they keep referring to it as Eastern Europe. It is in Asia and bordering Europe (the caucuses that is) and Kazakhstan is smack in the middle of central Asia. The vast majority of what is Russia is in Asia. Geography seems to have skipped these guys.

[@tarzanstrickland]

The Caucasus are definitely considered Eastern Europe by most people, especially by those who are geography experts. Georgia, Armenia, Dagestan are considered European

[@ShadiQaid]

Come ooooon guys Islam is the best now , but Habib on another level, how come you said Islam better when habib beats every one in the gym including islam himself.dont be sick habib is on another level will mule anyone by his grappling

[@almurabitun]

Kazakhstan is Central Asia .Dagestan is historically Asia nestled above Iran but currently occupied by Russia but the Caucuses is culturally Asia and NOT Eastern Europe.

[@tarzanstrickland]

thats not true. They are definitely both. They have been involved in European and Asian history, thats why they are considered a border region... They can and are commonly referred to as indigenous Eastern Europeans... The Eastern Roman Empire involved that region, and many of the Emperors were of Armenian descent... Georgia and Armenia are both Christian nations, which is more European. Dagestan is literally officially a European place... Georgia and Armenia are also considered Eastern Europe by many official sources including the World Atlas

[@tarzanstrickland]

im not surprised by your profile picture that you would try to claim it is Asia... definitely no bias there 😂 Merab himself refers to Georgia and Georgian people as European.. Arman, Khabib and Islam are all comfortable referring to themselves as Russian, with Armans family moving from Georgia to Russia when he was young. They are indigenous Caucasians. Khabib is an Caucasian Avar, Makhachev is a Caucasian Lak. Armenia and Georgia both consider themselves geopolitically European. Even just looking at them it is fully realistic to say they are Eastern European people, they look much like Italians, Croats, Albanians and Greeks.

[@vajidali530]

It's not because they're 'Dagestani' it's because they have nothing else to do... If I got Birmingham for example and made every boy wrestle (hypothetically) and I find 30k boys that show a proficiency in wrestling... Let's filter out 15k that are good at it. Out of those 15k let's again filter out the top 5k that are great at wrestling.... Now out of those 5k let's focus on the ones that can be elite.... Let's get let's say 150...and out of that 150 let's focus on 4 that can be Olympic quality wrestlers and greats.. It's just a numbers game. You have to consider that for every khabib coming through there will be 100's of mediocre fighters. That whole caucasus region not just Dagestan is producing great fighters... Now we are on the cusp of a major mma war between Georgia and Dagestan 😂 merab, ilia and arman are coming for all the marbles. The real joke however is that Islam, khabib, umar usman etc ain't even the best wrestlers in Dagestan. Even though Russia was banned from the Olympics Dagestanis still won a ton of gold medals fighting for other countries. Google sudalev for example he has no intention of doing mma but makes Islam and khabib wrestling look mediocre.

[@SA0450]

The host was just a hater and trying to be sarcastic. How can u be a fan of paddy but not know the dagestani fighters? They are the top guys in ufc rn

[@majsingh2362]

China side?? The blind leading the blind. Loool

[@ars7714]

What the hell Eastern Europe, what are you talking about, you are misleading your listeners. Eastern Europe is Poland, Bulgaria, Romania, Czechia, Slovakia, former Yugoslavia, Hungary! All Warsaw Pact countries except the USSR. If you look at where the Caucasus is, it is the East, Orient, not Eastern Europe. And then, Dagestan does NOT dominate in Russia, fighters from Chechnya, Ossetia, Urals, Siberia and other regions are worthy competitors to Dagestan in wrestling and MMA, in striking martial arts they will be even better. But for some reason the UFC does not sign Russian and Chechen fighters, unless they represent other countries + Khabib made Dagestan famous.
