He apologized to the UFC, Nate, and took complete responsibility and said what they need to fix so it doesn’t happen again. I guess since Khamzat wasn’t publicly flogged on the the Las Vegas Strip for missing weight there’s no accountability for some of you mma “fans”.

There are things people truly do not understand when it comes to martial arts. It's easy as a spectator to simply say that with a full camp, things would've been different. Fighters like Khamzat, Khabib etc, have been doing nothing but mastering the same thing their whole lives. Basically even if you know what khamzat is about to do, you won't be able to do anything about it. A full camp for a few months wont save you either. Same story with Khabib, everyone knew what he was going to do, but no one were able to stop him. It's a masterpiece that these fighters are able to make such a complex thing look simple and beautiful. Khamzat reminded me of clip I saw a while ago, where an anakonda that strangles and kills a crocodile.

A full camp can definitely make a difference. Khabib would’ve lost eventually if he kept fighting. Every champion does. We saw it with Leon edwards. Leon Edward beat Usman because he had a full camp. He gameplanned for that kick to land. If he didn’t have a full camp he wouldn’t have won.

Hate on every little thing? If the UFC wasn't able to shuffle the lineups the way they did then UFC 279 wouldn't have happened or would've been postponed. I would've gotten a refund along with countless others. The main event changing is one of the stipulations when getting a refund for a ticket. I wouldn't call that a little thing. There is a difference between a main event and a prelim fight. Who cares if a no name fighter misses weight by 8lbs. Easily replaced. We all come and pay money for the main event. That is the draw. Khamzat is a needle mover now, so his responsibility is much higher. They are called professionals for a reason and missing weight by that much wasn't professional. No matter what the excuses were. Either way, this is just a tiny bump in the road for Khamzat. As long as he learns and moves forward.

Would be nice if you would have put time stamps on this. It is a quite long interview.

Coach Andreas is one of the best coaches in the UFC if not the best right now. The way sticks he for Khamzat like a farther is just absolute class.

glad khamzat has a level headed smart coach behind him. the guy doesn't seem stuck up, seems the polar opposite to khamzat. the best thing for a guy like khamzat imo

I love both you Gentlemen and thank you for such an awesome informative interview. Ps. I saw Kevin Holland on his trash talking for the 1st time but easily assessed that Khamzat would take his head by some sort of choke after some ground and pound. And that's exactly what happened. I know Khamzat's skill level is ridiculous & people are seriously underestimating it time and time again. It's okay because I Like how he ragdolls or KO'S PEOPLE and then people act shocked. Silly haters they all are. Keep bringing us the baddest most awesome fighter in healthy form and nothing less. Much LOVE AND GOD BLESS. SALAAM TO YOUNG WOLF AND CONGRATULATIONS ON ANOTHER AWESOME VICTORY. FROM NORTHERN CALI, USA.

the training sessions for the kevin fight were basically sitting khamzat down and having him watch his li jing liang fight

Thanks for clearing that up the issue with him losing weight and where he got offsides is his dismissive attitude about not making weight .

Effing fantastic interview. Andreas is gold. Khamzat as GREAT as he is, is lucky to have him in his corner.

Excellent video

Great response by the coach! Khamzat reacted wrong to the miss, this is how he should’ve responded!

His coach reacted like a dumba-- too originally. Claimed people were trying to make a name off Khamzat by criticizing him for missing weight and refusing to take responsibility. Glad he realized that wasn't a good look and did damage control.

Khamzat doesn't have the personality to just get on a bended knee and beg for forgiveness, he's a lil immature and aggressive. Listen to his life story his family been trying to get him out of problems he's always been a problematic individual and talks it is what it is broski not his fault yall want him to be someone he aint.

Such an honest and great humble coach. Khamzat is lucky to have him

Fantastic conversation ✌️🤘

Smart coach. Perfectly keeps the monster Khamzat in control

Good to see Pierre Woodman transitioning into MMA

Brett is the man.. Love him for these interviews....

Again another great interview by greatest interviewer covering MMA. After this interview, I feel Khamzat is in good hands with this coach. Last week i was worried.

Thank you Coach, good sharing of values. Khamzat will reign both divisions

The mma fans ain't gonna do anything but gossip about him and contribute to his rise to fame. Even bad publicity is good publicity, and Khamzat will be given superstar opportunities if he keeps performing like that in the cage. Khamzat doesn't need anyone's forgiveness when the ball is in his court.

what a great coach who listened to the advice of the doctors and looking after his fighters. if he ended up in hospital there would be no fight and possibly end up very unwell.

Great Coaches get their fighters on the scale at the correct weight & decent shape. They fumbled the biggest bag of their life.

All right so I have a question we know how competitive he is we know how much drive he has we know that someday he wants to be a to division champion and defend those belts simultaneously. Wouldn’t it make more sense then to fight at weight classes a little bit closer to his natural weight? this way he doesn’t have to hurt himself to cut the weight something like light heavy weight 205 and middleweight 185 those are two weight classes closer to his natural weight so the weight cutting process would be a little bit easier and safer. Even though I understand the reasoning behind trying to go down to the lowest weight class possible especially if you can make the way because after you beat the scale you can put on as much weight as possible so I understand fighting at the lower weight classes as a bigger person because you get a slight physical and competitive advantage but it can be very dangerous and unhealthy and the toll that it takes on the body is a big one so I definitely think in my opinion he should move up some weight classes at least a middleweight I think about it he can easily get to 180 so fighting at 185 should be easy granted I’m not entirely sure what his natural walk around weight is let’s call it 224 230 so cutting down to Light heavyweight 205 should be easy. Also as someone that pride themselves on always being able to fight like he says he’ll take a fight anytime he’ll fight anybody anywhere you need to be more disciplined and stay closer to fighting weight this way when you get that call it’s less work that you have do. This is supposed to be your profession this is how you put food on the table don’t disrespect yourself by not being as ready as possible until you achieve all the goals that you want to achieve you should always be ready and that means being healthier and staying closer to fighting weight.

*Khamzat needs to get a full time dietician during Camp, and also he needs to stay in Welterweight until he gets the strap before moving to Middleweight. Bc these weight cut fluctuations of his, aren't working and are actually super hazardous to his health*

@Adam-xe5xm

Жыл бұрын

not during camp, full time. If he wants to commit to the lower weight class until he gets the strap he needs to control his eating habits year round, once he settles into 185 after winning the belt at 170 he can start to push is weight up so hes stronger at 185. I think hes planning to do what Connor did, win the strap at 170 and go straight for champ champ. If Izzy beats Alex its possible they give him the opportunity considering hes lapped 185 already, Izzy would probably have to fight one more fight before then for the timelines to match up.

Khabib had the same problem. He was shutting down missing weight then brought in a nutritionist and never missed weight again. Khamzat was khabib 2.0 so maybe that’s what will happen. I still like him being at ww the fights are so much more interesting then at mw.

Enabling bad behavior.

All the people who judged khamzat so quickly and immediately pointed fingers and even booed him, you should be ashamed. I've been watching mma and kickboxing fights since 1997, I've never seen someone booed so much just because a fighter didn't make the weight. As if he was the first fighter to fail the weight in the past at every event there were always at least 2-3 fighters who missed the weight, even in this event UFC 279 there were several fighters who missed the weight ,but nobody said a single word about these fighters. Just ridiculous, people like that should be ashamed to boo such a good fighter like Khamzat who just tries everything to be the best. And the media were also not uninvolved in this matter, because they brought up this topic again and again, no matter where, that's very hypocritical when you consider that at every event there are always fighters who don't make the weight.

Sounds like he needs to move up to Middleweight.

If you cant make 170 in 6 weeks, you should fight at 185

Nah anyone who understand MMA and watched that fight will understand that after Khamzat grabbed him, Holland did almost every right. Khamzat was not only stronger than him, but one step ahead of him at every point as well. It wasnt domination of a weak opponent, it was a freak of nature showing what it can do.
