@bane8305 this might be the most important thing and no one's talking about it, probably because they dont want to admit modern martial arts is more of a show than real fighting.

And outside a ring the UFC fighter wouldn't stand a chance.

I train BJJ in Russia, Vladivostok and Moscow, and I noticed a pattern. In every gym I had ever been too there were Chechens and Dagestanis. But unlike the Russians, who varied in age and skill, the Muslims were always adults and competitive purple belts or above. I had only run into maybe one chechen white belt my entire time there (after 6 years). So I think the answer is training from a young age. They either start from early adolescents and continue into adulthood or not train at all.

Correct!! Habib lived, literally, lived in the training camp when he was 10. Cook, eat, do own laundry, and train. Sometimes he won a fight twice in the octagon. He catches his opponents with arm triangle and tells them tap (tep his pronunciation) but if they dont, he does not increase the pressure and break their arms. Let them go and catch them again. So, not only he protected himself, he was also careful not to hurt his opponents badly. Never bled and rarely made small cuts on the fighters. In other words, we never saw completely unleashed Habib. He just displayed a bit of what he was capable of with a 30-0

Actually I take it back, Zubair wasn’t really good, but others had a lot of potential, the problem is that because of the regions Warlord Ramzan Kadyrov, many have problems with fighting in UFC. For example, Adlan was a winning spree, and they tried to reach out to him, and offer him fighting under their name (Akhmat), however he refused, so they told him that if they ever see him fight again, in any promotion, they’ll threaten his family, hence why he quit, but told the media that it’s for religious purposes. Now others have another kind of problem, like Taisumov and Khamzat, they become Ramzans fighters, and then they are not able to fight anywhere except for Abu Dhabi, because US bans them (neither Khamzat, nor Taisumov are able to get the visa). Edilov is on another level of being spoiled by Ramzan. After he won in UFC, Ramzan basically took him back to the Republic, and gave him a job in the government, and made him his kids babysitter (something we see happening to Khamzat as well, since Edilov was executed half a year ago). Basically, most of the problems are coming from the Republics leader. I know that they banned Zubair from coming home for a while, because he didn’t support them in Khabib vs Kadyrov argument about Imam Shamil (despite the fact that he just stayed silent). You are either playing in their team, and by their rules, or you don’t play at all., that’s how it is for the Chechens in UFC

I would assume Dagestanis would have been top tier MMA since the beginning of MMA if it was due to their training/genetics. Fedor was considered in the debate for the best heavyweight in the world back in the pioneer days, there was always plenty of Russian representation. However, there isn't anyone truly outstanding from Russia until the Dagestanis hit the scene and how are ALL of them better stat-wise than even the "best heavyweight of all time?" Yes training has a HUGE part in it and that is most of the formula for success, but I honestly think they are highly sophisticated dopers at the top level gyms. Especially being associated with Russia, they did government sanctioned doping in the Olympics. I mean there are plenty of fighters who have trained their whole lives, I don't think that is what makes them different. Back in the day before USADA, everyone including their momma was doping so no one really had much advantage over anyone (besides Bisping) It would make sense to me at a political level for Russia to be involved because if they get caught they can just denounce the "backwards cheating mountain people" (my guess on how they would try to word/frame it, not saying it myself lol). If they don't get caught, well they just have the best fighters in the world.

Strikers who had decent grappling but nothing on the level from Dagestan. Khabib never took the brave decision to move up a weight class and face real grapplers and better strikers.

Gaetje is a wrestler, and you saw how khabib pressure melted him, now you going to make the same argument for Islam and he's beat Tsaryukyan a good wrestler and Oliveira a good grappler

Wrestling is a strong tradition with these people. I watched documentaries stating Islam and wrestling go hand in hand together. They start teaching boys at a very young age. It reminds of Canada where everyone plays Hockey from the age of 5 till we drop dead.

@@Belusarius-insights boxing is not encouraged in islam, hitting the head is against the prophets teachings. that's why wrestling became an alternative I'm guessing

They seem so much more explosive then the rest.

It has nothing to do with being Muslim, The Dagestani fighters are good cos of their culture and genetics which is pretty unique. Georgia is another caucuses nation which has many great fighters despite being a small nation and is orthodox christian.

I actually originally had a bit in the vid talking about extrapolating the same sentiments to other regions such as south caucus and Georgia. Religion in general is a factor whether it be Christianity or islam, but I think the none drinking is a big thing.

​@Kiercho Muhammad pbuh used to wrestle, medieval Islamic scholars literally wrote treatises on wrestling it's something that predated the modern world and the Ufc commercialisation of this spiritual dcipline in islam that existed in other civilizations

They weight bully and rehydrate a lot. They also rarely fight other wrestlers/grapplers.

Thank you bro 🫡

The biggest thing is they stick to what they are best at. Many wrestlers get 1 ko and then fall in love and forget what brought them success.

They don’t go up against highly decorated American Wrestlers though, the matchmakers have avoided this. Khabib’s run was very short. He barely beat Iaquinta and that roided out bald guy. Islam hasn’t defended against anyone good other than a BJJ guy. Khamzat hasn’t fought anyone in his weight class that good, and gets gassed. They are relatively new with short careers and haven’t had legendary bouts with current stars. Not on Jon Jones DC GSP level.

"Elite" MMA fighters in ONE are nothing but can crushers.

I’ll Save ya 11 minutes: Russian Muslims are dominant because the UFC is expanding its business eastward and wants them to be dominant so it’s new fan base has something to care about. We have seen Khamzat lose two fights but be given the decision, Islam lose a fight but be given the decision, Ankalaev commit a blatant DQ foul but be given a draw, and Khabib beat 25+ no name fighters but get labeled a GOAT. If you don’t see the marketing hype machine, I don’t know what to tell ya.

The Muslim fan base that the UFC created from this business move is the worst in all history. These guys barely started watching UFC during UFC 229 in 2018 and don’t even know any ranked fighters

I never thought of that from a business point of view but makes sense. It’s kinda scripted in the sense of business manipulation or management. Kinda like ninja warrior. There are ppl who can but they need to find someone who looks like they can and not actually do it. And for the story. If your story is uninteresting no money.
