you don't want to fight anymore no i train every day i train every day like i used to like all my life you know i cannot stop training this is give me good energy every day you know if i'm not training and i think like i have to do something you know uh about competition yeah i'm done you know we all miss you right everybody misses you thank you so much yeah is it was it hard for you khabib to say goodbye to the sport of mixed martial arts or you've been doing he's been doing this since he was a kid mike wrestling bears too he retired in his prime i think i think this is it was like my hardest hardest decision in my life you know to stop doing this and uh you know like when i remember i like i find myself on the mats you know and all my life i was training i was preparation for something like since when i was kid and now when i finish like half year ago like every every day i go to the training and i do something because i know i have competition when i was kid i beginning like in freestyle wrestling then i moved to judo combat [ __ ] mma i doing like almost 13 years last 13 years professional and all my life i was doing something like preparing for somebody for some immature fights amateur wrestling or professional mma you know i was like but right now is like it's a little bit hard for me you know like without competition but you know it's like when you finish you finish you know yeah but i don't think you think i think you chose to be finished i don't think you're not finished because someone can beat you you finish because um you lost interest in the sport right now i think between between my retirement and your my retirement i think this is too big difference i think tell me why when you when you retire i think like almost four years almost four years mike's still fighting i'm still fighting no no no i'm talking about high level 17 17 years ago i talked about high level 17 i'm getting more money than the champions though it is high level right like mike's a businessman could be he's a businessman okay tell us a little bit about your your your childhood could be you know obviously growing up in the mountains of dagestan i mean obviously i've been there before you've been there too mike you know everywhere like in the southern caucus of of russia you know in mahashikala uh dagestan chechnya that whole area man they're just you guys are bred into being champions man you guys have a a great system man what was it like growing up as a kid as as as a dagestania kid in uh in that time during that time i think this is because of very hard life like first of all it's very hard life and second i think people in that area like they just love competition they this is like inside their blood you know like all like like thousands we got to do falcons too huh not too much not too much i want the candlesticks no falcons no they they do they do like with falcons but we hunt with our like hands you know yeah no falcons you know and i think like because of this area like like thousands years you know they competition with someone because of uh like because of this place like where this place right now like because of geography like everything i think this is our in inside our blood and uh like uh and very hard life if you wanna if you wanna become on some levels you have to you have to become success somewhere you know if you talk about like business this is very hard and that area because become like a success businessman this is very hard like about sport why not so so growing up khabib was your was your dad was your dad always because obviously your dad was your dad your dad was your coach your dad was your friend did your dad play all those roles with you like you know it was like my dad he was like completely different person but then everybody i know like like you know it's like he tried to put me like on fire all the time like always you know like like yesterday when you come when you come when it went check this out check this out like yesterday he come to check our training we just finished with zubaira and uh and uh you know i was like and i say like before zubair are talking about i can't beat henderson who don't wrestling much and i i was like okay henry you're here and i say survivor you have to check this guy you know i i make them wrestling you know like all the time when me and my father like we go somewhere like doesn't matter like somewhere house like friend's house or somebody come to our house if i see someone like almost my my my size and i look at him like to my enemy you know because i know my father gonna make me wrestling with him you know it was like all my life so then part of what check this out uh mike so i went over there because i brought some barbers and friends that they're a big fans of uh khabib and i brought them all there's like no these dudes flew down because then you were having a podcast you know what i mean to me khabib so then i i saw zubara in the bottom i said hey man where you guys at like you know i want i got some friends and i get up there and could be like oh yeah you want a picture for your friends he's like then you have to wrestle zubaira so i'm in like dress clothes and i just gotten smoking two blunts you know a beard you know what i'm saying mike really good and i'm feeling good i'm just like you know next you know i'm in the underwears like freaking wrestling this dude in front of everybody but i i saw a little bit of what you're talking about with your dad i can only picture your dad being that so you didn't mention it we're older because he got on me he's like no you want a picture you're gonna wrestle i'm like these dudes flew out i'm like i have to you know what i'm saying like there's no other there's no other way it's a great experience though yeah look looking back at your childhood now could be do you feel like that's what's made you to the person that you are today uh like i think everything about discipline everything about discipline and every day and every day every day like you know train sleep eat repeat it's like i think like you guys understand me like you especially you mike you guys like one of the greatest athletes of all time you gotta breathe it live it yeah be the champ before you become the champ we have the lifestyle yes it's have to become your lifestyle and everything here in mental you know everything about mentally you know it's like like people ask me like uh when you become champion what you feel like and i said no in my mind i was always champion in my mind all the time when i see someone compete like in my weight classes and i think okay like since when i like you when ufc signed me it was like 2012 2013 14 like that time i will think about i'm gonna beat these guys i'm gonna i can beat all of them you know like everything about mental so like what you said mike you have to be it before you come before you become it did you knew at one time in your life could be that you'd be like literally you'd be the top of the world not only ensemble but in the ufc you know it's like this is not i'm not about i knew or no this is like uh do you have a vision that's what i have vision i have vision like uh all the time i think about like if not injures of if nothing happen like if i'm gonna fight like for example with this champion i can beat him like always like my mind think about like i just oh man i just need to compete with this guy i really want to compete with him you know like i remember when uh anthony petty's fight with gilbert melendez it was like in vegas i was there like i do my rehab and for my knee and i and i was very close to cage you know and they fight for the lightweight title and i think like when fight finish i would think like these guys these guys people call them like best in the world and i think i can beat these guys yeah and my focus was like crazy you know and after that rafael dos sonias after like three months beat anthony pettis and i was thinking like hey one year ago i'm rafael dusanas and i'm here without build and all these chickens they fight for the my title you know i was like and but that time i was injured you know and i was like okay i'm gonna do everything what i have to do and i'm gonna come back and i'm gonna maul all of them and when i come back like 2016 14 i have injured 16 i come back and uh it was like two different khabib you know it's like when i watch when i fight dosanos and all these fights before you before i get injured and after that i change completely because of focus what do you what do you think was causing all those injuries because you've been in the ufc since what year were you in the usc how long have you been in usc for uh since 2012. it's 2012. i know you were injured for the two years yeah you're really just for a minute what do you think it was could be it was very hard time for me you know i was like because i cannot compete and all guys who i beat they they beat someone and rafael dosan has become light to a champion you know it's like and i think okay i just have to stay focused you know improve my game and come back and smash all of them yeah hey mike did you see they launched a rocket ship to go to space in 10 minutes yeah we're gonna be living on another planet soon i wonder if it's like feel zero gravity it's amazing

who's the one that inspired you the man to start fighting you or do you think it was something that your dad kind of set forth and this is this is what it is hey like biggest inspiration for me it was my dad you know it was my father yeah all my life you know it's like uh [Music] i'm doing all these things only because of him only because of him you know he's like i remember when i fight was like some fights in ufc i just i call him after fight right away i call him like and i try to get from him like some good words you know and he says like and he beginning talk about my mistakes what i make inside the fight and i'm listening to him listen like two minutes and uh and i said okay you don't want to say nothing to me he said it was good job just come back we have to keep training you know it's like he was like for me is like biggest motivation you know he gave me good energy he gave me good advice you know and with him we knew like what we need what we want you know like exactly and like since when i was like maybe like since 2005 2004 when i beginning training combat symbol with father like we have their goal you know like become unc fighter we have the goal but that time nobody compete from russia and ufc and it was very hard to sign like when i signed end of the 2011 it was almost impossible sign with the ufc like someone from russia yeah it was like first athlete and you know it was like not many people believe us but uh when i see how father believe me how really want this this is giving me like crazy energy yeah did you have did you have an inspiration like that mike i know you always bring out roberto duran you know imam ali muhammad ali yeah muhammad number one oh yeah yeah how cool was that for you mike to have muhammad ali as your you know obviously he was there when you won your first world title yeah it was just um i met him in the olympics when i was 18 years old i met him then but um my manager was close friends and i signed up to meet him and talk to him on the phone and he just inspired me i wanted to be like him yeah the charisma yeah yeah what do you what do you think made ali so special with the with the public what was it about muhammad ali that made him so special he loved them more than they loved him that's the only difference isn't that something he loved them more than they loved him yeah that's a trip man just uh uh his spirit was just like a glow right yeah there's some people have that man you know what i mean i can i don't i've i regret mike not getting a chance to like meet ali i was oh he loves you he loves you yeah he uh did you i know you find a lot of inspiration muhammad ali i think this guy this guy inspired not only like fighters like athletes i think millions people around the world yeah businessmen everything yeah he was like i think bigger than just sport you know it's my it's like you know one of the famous like human being of all time like i think it's like yeah like someone said like 1980 he was uh number one famous human in the world yeah yeah he's like and i remember like when you fight it was uh i remember 23rd february 2003 2003 like 18 years ago you supposed to fight with clifford etienne and i was like like week before the fight like all russia media show this fight or mike tyson uh gonna fight with clifford attend and remember it it's supposed to fight like five morning in uh moscow time and i told my father please can you make me wake up i really want to watch this fight and me and my father you watch your fight but you make me a little bit upset because you knock him out in first round i was waiting for this i was waiting for it to go you know it's like all this walk out to the ring like he come you come like you know it's like you got a party that yes i see my family gotta go it's like just fight begin again you put them on slaves like i prayed with a lot thank you and i was like and uh i remember that time i don't know with my father i watch live you know how was your how was your first interaction when you first met mike i met him in my house oh yeah yeah yeah you're showing the you showed that i even said i don't think you remember me you remember mommy you're right yeah i get i give him my hand oh yeah you remember this yeah it's like honestly it was like before my fight i think like barboza or someone i that's before you were a champion yes before i became champion actually and mike i gave him like uh i was honestly i was nervous little bit because because one of the biggest my childhood dream it was like meet muhammad ali mike tyson ronaldo like old ronaldo from from brazil you know it's like all this athlete when i watch i watch all the time you guys like in tv and when internet come in internet like you know it's

kevin lee or barbosa when you had called conor mcgregor at chicken it was in new york it was a new york johnson michael johnson i'm sorry and i remember that's when like you know the crowd was like dude like you know there's it was the majority of the crowd was all irish he had called out conor mcgregor which conor mcgregor was fighting for a second that was the initiation of the rivalry and obviously you go out and uh you know prior to the fight with uh with you're supposed to fight holloway for your fight he ends up backing out and you said no bring out the next and then they ended up bringing out uh they brought somebody else i think who was it uh ella quinta after quinta petis uh holloway felder and tony ferguson nobody show up you know yeah but i remember like after when i make wait and they don't have opponent they every like five minutes they ask for me oh can you fight with him can you fight with him and i was like i don't sleep all night because of i was making weight and i said please i off my phone i tell ali please don't ask me about opponent just find me someone i'm gonna go sleep when i wake up i need upon it you know and i remember like i woke up i said hey do you have to buy for him form who's my opponent you know mike how gangsters as like bring something let me wake up in the morning i want to have an opponent that's a winner man you know what i'm saying you ain't you ain't trying to shortcut nothing i respect you for that you know it's like like i don't understand people when they talk about oh this is like one day before the fight i was preparing preparation preparing for different type of style you know i cannot i need time to prepare like i don't understand this you know if you want to be best you can you have to be best you can you know you know it's like you can beat like anybody in the world this is fight for the title it's like the olympics tonight you want to become world champion doesn't i think that's what makes it so unique is the fact that you're the best of you has to come out at that time in order for you to say you're the best you got to be the best at any time you know fighting running and fighting if everyone else is thinking the same thing yeah and you know it's like was you mentioning about michael johnson fight that night it that night i was very emotional because this fight have big history you know yeah they send me they send me contract fight versus alvarez fight for the title first of all they sent me fight in canada i signed a contract then they said they sent me fight with him in i think madison square garden i signed contract and i was what's going on i don't understand why these guys send me like two different countries okay this contract was absolutely uh to fight who fight eddie alvarez fight for the title okay and and then the then i signed contrary and i see in media like conor gonna fight with uh alvarez and i i was like hey i supposed to fight with him my son already contract so you think they're using they're using you as a pilot i think they play game yeah i think they play game you know it's like they play game and i and i send then then a message hey i understand everything okay if you guys if you guys give him like this fight i understand you know like this guy is like big name that time i don't have big name yeah you just use my name to force them sign contract i understand everything okay just give me someone i want to fight same night just give me someone you get be big organization just find him someone they say okay it was like one month before the fight they say you just be ready we're gonna find you this is this is this is how confident he is mike is khabib literally be in the corner talking to dana white as he's punishing his opponents we fast forward man obviously right before getting ready to fight for the title that whole incident with uh with conor mcgregor happens you remember that mike right which uh that made headlines man were refunded at that time when that whole thing happened because the whole story was i know it was it happened with arts because artem was saying something in russian to you guys i don't know what he had said but you ended up i don't know who's i don't know if you slapped him or whatever but that led conor mcgregor to come in obviously you know throw a dog through the bus i would think like a lot of friends come today when when i see a lot of people outside i think wow like fans come here like they want to take pictures with someone you know it's like uh you know when you go to the when you go to the like likes real party i talk about party like fighting party you know yeah why you bring camera with you yeah you're going to worry you don't need camera you know this is show like it was lara [Music] what's your name security security there like lara but they they try to just show you know when i go to do something i slept or i slept all his team okay you know like when you go to the war you have goal you have to do something you have to take your goal when you take your goal you become winner they just come here to show up like you know like promote the fight like everything drama it was it was like we were going to weigh in and a lot of media there i don't understand a house like uh like 20 camera there no it's like a lot of security like like of course nobody gonna let you fight there this is 100 you know yeah damn i know what's like that what what what's your take on that mikey what did you take on mcgregor doing that i'm pretty drastic yeah it's too much yeah phone can get hurt real bad yeah well two i think two people were hospitalized uh yesterday because the glass kind of went in their eyes there's just like something how many years is that kissing one woman rose rose actually three and then the other dude uh yeah ray boris yeah yeah obviously you go wild you beat ella quinta for the title man now now now you're the champion at the light heavyweight division and then that's pretty much actually that was the start of of the mcgregor fuel lightweight and i'm like heavyweight uh light yeah lightweight lightweight and that's what i have now i look like heavyweight but i competition you know it's like next day after this fight i jumped to the training camp really because i knew we're gonna fight we're gonna fight and i i just was waiting for contract date just next day i beginning training i don't stop yeah because i know it's like when fight fight time come you know it's like uh someone someone have to show like spirit heart you know but when time come you know like i was preparing so hard when time come and inside the cage when he said this to me is like i was talk with him like crazy and he give back to me like hey it's only business you know it's like it sounds like you know like when when my father go crazy with me i try to make him stop you know yeah and i like try to found some excuse hey you know like it sounds like same same same thing you know like and i was what i was preparing for these things yeah you know i was like i was preparing for war and when i come here i don't fight opponent you know like this is make me empty and why i did this after the fight why i jump everything like i don't think like people gonna understand this because like it was so emotional so you time for me i can probably i can probably elaborate there for you because the first time i fought demetrius johnson he knocked me out and and two minutes and 36 seconds to the body which is the worst my knees and i didn't feel as a man that i shook his hand that i gave him a fair fight i think that ate me for you you putting a beat down at mcgregor did you feel the exact same thing like he didn't give you the hand like he should have ah you know you know you know what i'm saying it was a little bit different it was a little bit different you know like it wasn't like i was expecting more yeah i was expecting more and you know it's like when i go like i talk with him he give me this executes oh this is like just only business everything like okay when i catch his neck and i choke him like he hit up you know like and i think hey you bring like thousands people from ireland here on different part of world and you tap in front and like and you talk about like about warrior or something like this how you can tap go sleep go sleep like and he tap and i was like okay it's not enough i need something and i was like and i see like some his corners like talk with me like and i think oh i have to bite his heart you know and i jump to like you know like catch something of course i know like a lot of people but nobody wanna talk with me i don't understand everybody everybody wanna talk with me in press conference in twitter you know inside the cage like damn here it goes the ego so you went after you went after dylan dennis right is that how you were trying to hit or were you just trying to hit somebody you're just still playing i just tried to bite his heart you know that time i thought i really want to bite his heart you know i don't under i don't know maybe not like uncle mike dude [Laughter] everybody you guys are all everybody wanted to get a piece of them why because he disrespected your family he disrespected your faith he disrespects your father your mother i mean he disrespected everybody okay i have a question if there is no police what's going to happen you tell me there is no no no no no referee no police no referee kill him he even sacrificed live remember you remember this fight mike yeah this is this is real things the real thing is not with bus you know when 200 security around like camera everything this is real thing you know i was like i was like i would think i was preparing for real world you know when i come there i don't find nobody you know this is make me like put me like in emotional you know make me emotional because i don't find nothing yeah i was expecting more you know did you take a lot of uh for for mike man you could obviously you've seen mike's face man mike you've had a couple rides back in the day in the ring remember that last uh the last holyfield fight can you talk about this a little bit because first fight like he he he hit you with the head i think like couple times what do you think about this do you ever bite someone no no but i could i could feel the frustration man like you know what i'm saying like you you understand his emotional life yes yes yeah but i've been head-butted man so i know what that thing feels like it pisses you off because there's some people that are really sneaky with it would you say mike people that really have a hard head really slide that thing in what happened after now you guys cool good yeah what happened was here [Laughter] gone yeah crazy would you would you would you think mike obviously mike has made he has reconciled with holyfield man and obviously i saw the comments too that uh that conor mcgregor uh that conor mcgregor just recently said about and i don't want to bring it up we don't got to talk about it either it could be because there's i think he's really going overboard he's going to hit me with that one too so i'm dabbing straight but do you talk about you talking about last tweet yeah the last tweet man you know it's like to come inside my mind you know like like this is very hard for me people can say whatever they think you know did you hear about that mike what did you hear about the last tweet mcgregor did with uh khabib no yeah because khabib had mentioned and i've if you don't mind me talking about it yeah it's okay yeah khabib had mentioned it's like it's it's it's good over evil when he was fighting porya when when mcgregor fought pourier and he says uh good will always prevail and then uh you know conor connor's crazy ass he he rose like yeah man it's good versus evil and then he says something about along the lines that kind of covet kind of took your dad in that sense like going below the belt you know what i'm saying like completely but something that i will say about that your dad has always said that at one time at one point he would invite conor mcgregor to a barbecue man no it's like my my dad was like different level about like this situation he always like his heart was like so like clean you know and uh you know it's like like when he talked about this uh you know only evil can talk about your father like wife kids religion like if you're normal like humanly you're never gonna talk about this stuff you know like for me it's like show i think he posts this tweet like drunk too much or do something yeah and the next day i think and he always delayed his tweet and i think when he become a normal life and he said oh what i did like and he delete this is my opinion what he do like all the time yeah how would you take that mic how would you take that if uh you know obviously we got to sell the fight but there's a limit man there's a hey man you know hey listen um you can't be talking about people's dads and listen to perishing i just know um in this business everything goes you know everything goes come on the fight everything goes no i agree when you if you want to promote the fight yeah but you know it's like when when someone is not with us you know he's not even alive i don't think this is like this is show you what you have inside this is show your like how dirty you are like this is show like when you come when you when one of the best in the world and you and you come and you punch someone like 77 years like old girl like old man this is show your heart this is show who you are inside how dirty you are you know and you know it's like uh when you have parents and when you have kids how you can show yourself like this i don't understand why his clothes people don't tell him hey what's going on yeah can i give you and that's what i know from your perspective obviously there's something about mike that i will say that he's you've reconciled with everybody mike yeah they're from lennox lewis no because i'm not gonna let that stuff kill me yeah having a girl you're not liking somebody that takes a lot of energy i don't have the energy everybody my kids grandparents and wife cousins that's so much people that love to waste their energy on it look away from the [ __ ] scumbag that's just not what i want to do a couple years they would have got me on that i'd be in jail and [ __ ] not today yeah so you heard what he said could be mike doesn't hold grudges it's too much painful for him to hold grudges are you are you at that grudge a stage with mcgregor it's okay man we're all human dude it's okay to feel a little animosity towards somebody but you think you'll ever let it go uh you know i think i think uh i think like one of the biggest reason why i become champion i think this is about my mental part how i can control my emotional you know i i think i can control anything anything happen with me in the world i can control this i can handle this you know and i know it's like a lot of people like i remember when i when i was supposed to fight with him like like coach tell me hey you you have to focus you know it's like and i was like coach hey i'm focused you say oh you call home you call friends i said no i'm good this is normal for me you suppose i after like 30 minutes your biggest fight in your life biggest fight in ufc history become you call your friends on phone like i said coach please don't worry everything is good i'm good i'm relaxed and when time comes i'm gonna show you what do you what do you think what do you think conor mcgregor is missing in his life what do you what do you think it is man uh if you haven't said there's if you had to pinpoint one thing when you become rich when you become famous uh some people they lose real real people around him they lose them because uh because real people who love you they're gonna tell you true but fake people they always say oh you're good you're good you're good you know it's like they never say not say to you nothing because they don't want to upset you because they know they're gonna lose this comfortable but but you know it's like but real people they don't care about this they was they was with you before you become famous and rich and they don't care about your money they don't care about your fame they just love you and they when they say to you true you don't like this because of your ego you know and i think he lose a lot of people around him yeah it's just my opinion i don't think he have like people who was with him be before when he become champion and uh everybody needs someone who remind you hey you're doing this this is a bad this is good this is bad this is life like you don't need yes man you don't need people to just to just buy obviously you've been there mike yeah what's your take on what he just said mike i hate to know how people are man they're like monkeys the height we get the more we show our ass say that again i say we like monkey yeah the higher we get the more we show our ass it is true man it's really true most of the people like this i agree with them or most of the people like this yes no not everybody but most most most of the people i have like i'm i'm very lucky on this life honestly i think i think uh like all people who around me they was like when i beginning when i was like nobody they was with me like right now they stay with me you know i'm very happy about this yeah your brotherhood max i know these guys like that you talk about our brotherhood i learned a lot of that from ali man like you know like the dude they're just like brothers man like you know talk about a little bit about your your your support system and all your yes like like if you talk about ali like i i met him like 2014 before i become injured like after that we had like very very hard two years like injure injury injure surgery like uh you know it's like but we're still together you know when we have hard time work together when we have good time with together like same thing with all my brothers like islam like everybody like islam i know more than 20 years you know all these guys and uh you know it's like sometime sometimes i'm gonna be honest sometime like like when when you best in the world you don't like when people say to you hey you have to do this you know but you have to be clear with your heart yeah if you clear with your heart and you know these guys say true you have to say yes okay i agree with you so we have a lot of debates me and you uh kirby every time we see each other it's just we like to compare stats you know he's 29 and no he retired powerful pounder defeated i'm a two division champion defending both my belt olympic champion every time we see chicks i respect him i respect the crap out of just so you know that man uh you know i have good numbers too but honestly i'm i'm gonna say this i feel you a little bit higher than me like in sport like levels you know why yeah because of uh olympic gold medal yeah this is like different level yeah like this is like dream for anybody everyone who become like training like this is them like boxers wrestlers doesn't matter for everybody olympic gold medal i don't know about my opinion this is just well what like about olympic gold medal this is highest level in sports yeah yeah mike knows the amateurs i wish i had one yeah me too we talked about time like even in professionals even mike says that that a three three minute fight in amateurs against the best in the world you don't know who you're going to fight it's the purest confidence 15 minute amateur fight a professional fight yeah but you as olympic champion junior an olympic champion right doing anything i think yeah but you know it's like i'm gonna put you like a little bit higher than me but i still believe we like like same level same chair no sure and that's and now we'll say this about khabib he is the most dominant fighter in ufc history he's also the most humble fighter i wish i was as humble as am i what is he i hate his guys yeah yeah beautiful person now you go off obviously you you beat conor mcgregor you know you become an instant star man like you because you're the best fighter in the world i still believe i'm the best i do too i still believe i can cap it with anyone like even right now i i i finished almost one year ago but i still believe every day i train i'm in the gym you know i love this you know it's like nobody's debating you you're the best yes i i still believe yeah so so you go off you win your title obviously you you knock out conor mcgregor you tap them out uh connor mctapper as we call them [Laughter] you go off and obviously you defeat dustin poirier where people thought he had a potential i never thought it i didn't think any of these could honestly beat you but you ended up defeating him you ended up going through justin gaichi with the broken foot and then you go you win the fight you win the world title man and obviously your dad had just passed away man and i resonated so much with you crying i knew there was something like deeper than you just winning a world title man you decide to hang up the gloves man is that the most emotional feeling you've ever felt in your in your fighting career yeah i think so like 24 october that night it was like most emotional moment for me in my life you know it's like because uh because you know it's like that time my dream become true but without my father you know my dream become true it's like uh not about defend my title you know i truly believe at that time i was on top of mma community like all like i was the best in the world like harmful pound yeah i was the best that time next day i don't talk about next day like 23rd october or 25th i talk about 24 october when i finish just engaging i was the best in the world i don't talk about right now right now i really believe like other guys like i think like kamal usman but my my my dream was like become on top and that's it and finish you know and uh it was very emotional because like it was not only my dream yeah it was my father dream true you know we're doing this all life together and that time it was like without father that's why it was very emotional a little bit the fact that i know you could be obviously you're crying and you're weeping i i you really honestly i don't remember this i want to be honest like i don't remember like but but those are true feelings khabib i remember when i retired from russia and i lost at the olympic trials i remember you know typically unwrestling what they do they take off their shoes and they put them on the man i don't do that in boxing no but i remember just feeling like the sport that gave me everything right if i talk about it mine and everybody tells you you're the best everybody knows you're gonna win and you've got the big head and you're losing so where am i gonna go from here god that was your that was i don't know about this feeling no i do i know adversity yeah this is i think the difference between like mike and us is bike went through there is a lot of like this one i want to ask you one question about you really underestimate him or he was out shape oh douglas i really uh underestimated estimated you you almost finished him like they they gave me a long count yes it's like and what about your shape you was good shape yeah okay okay yeah 50 to 50 to one underdog you know what the crazy thing about that story ben there's a whole back story about buster douglas is his mother had recently died and obviously nobody believed that he could be mike you know this was back in 92. i think he was on same situation like i i was in exactly now so there's a there's that energy man that you had there's that presence that you don't believe that i believe they set me up to lose because they were betting against me look at that look how big of those odds what yeah but you're i'll be honest with you mike i feel like you're more of a cruiserweight that's why i was so impressed by you because in heavyweight you're probably considered a short heavyweight or a small heavyweight yeah and your body and you're beating all these dudes that were 50 pounds heavier than you yeah you know but listen on us what must you call that again um statistic scale yeah it doesn't show how much heart you got it doesn't show how much will desire you have yeah but he shows how big you are yeah yeah knows like why i say he was in same situation like i am because i remember my emotional when i fight with justin gaicher last fight it was like when i go to the cage you know the this guy he he hit like truck you know like nobody hit harder meal harder than just engaging his kick his punch his left hook right hook right uppercut you know i was like but i get i make him hit me you know you have like when i go to the cage and i was like okay i'm gonna go i'm gonna bring him to the deep ocean yeah deep ocean is like i'm game i'm gonna make him tired on stand up and i'm gonna bring him on ground and finish him there you know first of all what i have to do because he have very good wrestling base he is very good wrestlers and like beginning of fight i knew like this guy don't let me wrestling and i go through on his punch kicks and he knows like everything what happened with father like i i was think like nothing to lose nothing to lose i'm gonna go like and my coach tell me hey listen to game plan listen to a game plan be careful you talk about your father your father's father's plan that they talk about yes like take him down you know it's like but i don't listen everything what coach said but because i was very emotional and i remember that fight too khabib and i'm like and that's why i know it's like i always think like the the best legends in the sport are the ones that that are better competitors and they are fighters and i remember watching that fight with you and justin gaichi and you pressed him yeah and nobody has ever done that because when you pressed him you took away that that leg kick that he does he's so famous for and then you ended up you know bringing it down to the ground and then you ended up finishing it but i do remember this this is he's a killer but he's got a kind soul to him i remember when i remember you didn't want to hurt justin gates so you decided to get on top of him and uh do the triangle choke because obviously you knew that his mother and his father were in attendance yeah you know like i met his parents like before they fight like it was three days before the fight and i knew his parents gonna be there yeah you know and uh i know this guy very tough and he never give up and i go to the like amber i understand maybe this guy is non-top and i'm gonna broke his arm you know in front his parents and i was like and i transitioned to the triangle choke you know like when you choke people see what you want to break even if you don't tap you sleep you know this is much better than you if you broke your opponent after the fight man obviously you're emotional we just talked about it you know you're uh you know you're in cloud9 obviously you're a weepy man if you don't remember go back and watch it i think i thought it was special i thought it was really cool but then dana white had offered you and this is this is this is true mike and check this out he had offered khabib 100 million dollars to fight floyd mayweather and khabib said no i'm done because i don't want to make boxing community upset with me you know [Laughter] yeah no no desire man because from what i take it uh could be because obviously for me bro like the only way that i'll come back to the sport is for money or legacy because i to me in my eyes i know and maybe but that's the only thing that's going to motivate me and i'm satisfied and i'm full for you the money doesn't matter a hundred million dollars mike i know what mike would do not dig right [Laughter] there's people that had 20 million dollar billion dollars and we're broke you know the art and taking care of money he hit me billions of dollars i ain't listening to you on the way back sleeping in um motel 6. imagine having that billion dollars you know he's back in multiple six yeah it was like about money if we talked like of course money makes sense too you know but not not for but i'm never i never fight for money money knows like help people effort yeah it's like money is good money is money is good like uh but most of the time they bet you know i think like they bring they the money bring you to the situation you never been you know and you don't know how to act when you have so much money you know it's like a little bit dangerous so but i think like in this business i i don't come to make money you know i come here to legacy you know yeah and then when like end of the like coupled like a month ago he sent dennis and message ali say hey why happy don't even ask me how much money i'm gonna give him and i was like i'm not interesting about how much money you're gonna give him i already say i'm retired and that's it you know this is make sense more than money of course i have a lot of business because of i want to make money you know but this business like fighting business for me is not for making money maybe like most of the fighters they're gonna say oh this is like good words i don't believe him but this is the decision but i truly like believe like and i know like i'm not here i was not here to make money you know on this business yeah i just want to become best in the world and obviously not only were you offered a hundred million dollars to fight floyd but also it was one thing that your dad always wanted for you to fight george st pierre man to make it 30 and zero honestly george empire fight was my father's dream fight yeah because like not my like i'm okay with this fight like like when i borrow like when i grow up like fighter like 2007 six eight nine that time it was like your simple prime time and me and father will always watch fights and we always learn from george imperial you know that's why like he was my my father's favorite fighter you know like but right now i don't think this is like good fights like even for me and for him i'm 32 he's 40 you know it's like two big difference first of all and second i'm finished he finished two you know like so no desire for floyd no desire for george shane pierre i i sense it from you because i think we're on the same boat i would come back if the money's right but i think for you men i feel like there's peace in you and i feel like people need to really accept the fact that when you say i'm finished i'm finished you've been you've been wrestling bears yeah freestyle wrestlers [ __ ] i get you bro people don't get it 12 years professional mma 12 you know it's almost like you want to expand and obviously you're with the royal family i mean obviously entrepreneurship it's time for entrepreneurship that's where he's at now mike businessman that's where he's at business is much better than faiz you agree i don't know you just don't have to go to the hospital afterward but i love fighting yeah how would that fight with you and george st pierre if that legacy fight was to happen how would that turn out happy i think i'm like you know like george was very good he was great and i'm i i just think we was competing in two different uh eras eras like he was 10 years ago he was the best right now it's my time and i think like i'm i don't know like same thing worry about like if mike tyson fight with muhammad ali same thing you know but right now you guys could fight that would make a ton of money but yeah but i i want a prediction man i want to know from habib himself man how would that end up if i fight with him yes i think i don't change nothing just same thing pressure pressure i don't think he's he's racing better than my wrestling no there's a fight but he's a little bit bigger than me yeah more powerful i think i think i think you would fill in i think if you decide to make a comeback 170 pounds i think that weight class would be perfect sometimes you know why we lose love of the sport khabib because it's because we cut too much weight too much yeah you know what i'm saying that this is the reason why i retired from wrestling it's not the reason why i retired from fighting but you know what i'm saying like this part hardest part yes yes i just was cutting weight all night with my three guys like this is like hardest but the everybody talking about oh this is my last hackathon this is my and i was like and i see like when i was talking like this like seven ten years ago like everybody say when they're cutting weight this is like my last last time when i do these things you know it's like this is very hard i don't think mike understand us you're right you can you cut your you find did you cut within the amateurs mike not really i i just lost 110 pounds right now yes but when you professional athlete and you don't have nothing to cut you know it's like when you cut 30 pounds like i always come with like either like in between fights i get real fat i think right now i can cut 30 pounds like one week you know like yeah yeah i got a lot of cups yeah you saw you saw that twisted steel yesterday yeah i think a lot of people talk about you know they talk about your fighting they talk about your father talk about your legs you talk about dagestan but rarely do people ever talk about your mother man you know obviously the desire for her she doesn't want you to fight man and so neither does my mom you know she's happy that i'm retired i just want to get your perspective on your mother and your mother's love yeah it's like uh my mother when she grew up she had she's big brother he was wrestler and then she got married with my father and she have a husband like wrestler then we grew up we both like me and my brother she have like she was a wrestler no no no no no she's brother oh her brother his wrestlers you know and she understands sport yeah but she don't like when people punch like each other face yeah she like like uh like when kids doing some sports but she don't like like punch face you know like hurt people so now the fact that obviously your dad's no longer that leader in your life the person that takes it that you have to respect the most out of anybody in the world this is your mother his mother so if your mother was his son even when my father was alive i always tell him hey i love mother more than you knows like and he say this is this is your choice because i remember like when my mother and father was alive i was love my mother more more than father too i remember get off my wife get away from my wife it's my mother this is my wife you hear me get your own wife get away nothing like mother in the world like you knows like uh but if she was to grant you he's like hey your dad's last wish you know if she you know for so for whatever reason they know it's in her heart to tell you hey could be uh khabib come back man grant your father's last wish would you would you be willing would you no for my mother my mother wouldn't say that right no never said but but i'm gonna do everything what my mother say you know it's like anything for my mother like i remember when i was kid like like uh like five six like seven whatever no when i fight in street and come back she asked me like she never asked me why you fight like my father asked me all the time hey stop fighting you know it's like because he knows like i have i have skills i have knowledge how hurt people because i was training and my mother always asked me you lose or win i say i win this is good you know because straight is different rules you know she all the time saying never come home if you lose you know yeah like my mother have she have good but she don't like her people but she knows like street is street you have to show your heart when you go to the street because like they don't have rules they don't have rules they don't have referee they don't have security like you have to protect yourself all the time you know i was like did you have a lot of did you have a lot of street fights yes yeah like three a day damn this is back in brownsville no i know you know one time but i never tried three times every day though every day not like three times i had three fights that didn't have another fight like a month up to where's every day did you ever did you ever get beat up mike yeah i got beat up yeah did you know that you know mike you know mike was bullied somebody killed this pigeon when he was uh in his early teens that forced him to fight he discovered the dream of him being a yeah a great boxer and then he was like in the sport of boxing about bully i think like everywhere around the world they have bullies like just you have to be ready never give up it's okay if someone big and strong stronger than you if he can beat you it's okay like couple couple guys of course they can beat one guy this is not news you know but what about your heart if you give up you know right whatever you're coming back until i win yeah i'm never giving up yeah did those bullies get uh those those bull the guys used to bully you mike once you started beating them up did they treat you different were they just every time they see would they run no um they want to be my friend yeah they just befriend you but if you can't they wanted to be my friend and teach me how to rob and steal and stuff yeah and i was like like in my my village like big guys yeah when they see like small guys like like same age same size they say you're gonna fight with him they ask you know like and all the time when they ask me i say hey i'm gonna fight if he accept but first i don't wanna go because like because i was training all my life and i know like even when i was like seven eight i was like well rounded you know i was like i can wrestle i can grapple you know another one they don't say yo shorty i got 20 bucks you punched that kid in the heck and they betting on us yeah okay bang punch right in the face you're my friend split the money the philanthropy now uh could be with everything that you're doing now obviously i know you've i think you've gone to africa and have done a lot of things like that uh but you've also you're you're starting your own promotion now which yesterday you did a good job with me and zubaira you made us yeah hey i wanna wrestle dude oh delusional mike but he instigated it and i was like dude i took all my stuff i was like no we're going then but now he has like street fight like 30 minutes but now talk about the eagle promotions yeah i have promotion like uh [Music] like uh we beginning like three years ago yeah i was uh like a couple guys were there their owner and last year i buy everything like i'm owner there and i'm doing my by myself you know i control now everything i'm owner and uh i think we have great future you know it's like from here like uh august 3rd we have big show in kyrgyzstan i'm gonna fly from here direct to kyrgyzstan august 3rd i got august 3rd august after like five five six days you know wow and uh and uh we have in moscow couple show august we have two show september we have three show october like every month we have couple show and i was like we're doing very good job like what will motivate me to doing this work with this uh promotion like i think i can i give people good platform yeah you know to show that give give for young generation good opportunity yeah you know when i beginning it was like 2010 in eastern europe because you guys are so good man people don't know that side of the world they they they they we have like a lot of young like lions you know they just need opportunity you know so you want to give back and uh and from me they they can get opportune like they if they fight any eagle fc like donna white or big promoters they can see them you know because of me because i get attention and guys have big opportunity you know this has given me good motivation big motivation to doing this like maybe not everyone gonna become great champions but but you're happy that because you struggled back in the day to get fights no i get it man i think that's uh the people who don't become great champions in the ring become great champions in life yeah they don't or they do the ones that necessarily do become successful in the ring they become successful in life because the same tools you need in the ring you need a life to survive yeah like for example muhammad ali he was a great champion but more than champion he was like great human being you know absolutely yeah and i was like the great like we have like a lot of great boxers mixed martial artists a lot of them are great people yeah yeah can we uh can we bring our lia de laziz you want to come over here come here ellie come here man i wanna i wanna i wanna get i wanna get your two cents man with everything and how have you seen uh khabib could be mature it's okay okay it's okay it's okay say it's it just talk with us you've seen this man since the beginning and i think weren't you staying with wasn't he staying with you for a minute ali you know uh to be honest um i i met habib um you know through my brother rizwan who's here today and uh and when i meet him i think he have a acl you know acl surgery and he come we meet we go to california and his english was zero like back there like he was talking to me you know like he's like now my english teacher uh and after that like he have ecl for two years he's kept again injured in knee surgeries rib surgeries back surgeries and uh and very much at one point he said you know i think you know i'm gonna finish you know but i think his father was such a great influence in his life you know he was he was a motivation in his life he's the one always pushing him inspiring right a father right now is if alive 100 percent happy with fighting george you agree i think so yes yeah and um no choice and and i think you know and i and i i being around him and make me a better person make me a better person i was living my american dream doing crazy things like doing stuff i'm not supposed to do it i don't start hanging out with habib everybody it makes me become a better person but back then when we met i didn't have much money i didn't have nice car i didn't have anything and he didn't have much too you know and i feel like we can arrive together we we we kind of grew together you know this guy he make a lot of millionaires you know um and after that you know man so do you ali i know you met a lot of millionaires too man no it was just uh it was just being an honor such a church being a part of his life and i want to i never told him this before i want to say thank you for having me part of your life and uh and i love you and uh and you inspire so many of us you know and i really i really mean it like everything is that man and every time i see this guy i'm happy now he's not fighting you know albus from chetnia albert right here he's with random sometimes chatting and red hair yeah i know him that's so crazy i think habib he don't inspire like he inspired 1.7 billion muslim around the world you know a lot of our kids a lot of like who muslim kids growing up even not muslim you know inspire everybody did business different in mma he did his own way you know he never changed i know this guy when you have 10 dollar i don't know how much money you have now he's the same you know and uh and uh and i very much i believe he's the greatest of all the time not only inside the cage only outside the cage and i know he's going to smash me after this because he said i don't want to talk about me promote me but this is the truth you know and uh he changed a lot of us all of us and uh and we're here today talking to my opinion i think you're wrong i love muhammad ali and i said this before but mike tyson is one of the greatest athlete the most famous athlete we've ever seen because muhammad ali have maybe two generations right mike tyson 19 years old no my tyson 30 years old four years old seven years old and i think mike tyson is different because seven different generations know mike tyson yeah and uh and it's just mike has become like a phenomenon it's not just that i'm just happy to be here with henry you know yeah he's working this show all right well bye you feel the same way though but if you asks my he'll always give gratitude to muhammad ali you know what i'm saying because you are you are very humble my people are you know a great man you know i like mike tyson but i think muhammad yes i agree with you what do you think i'll leave the camera punch any closing thoughts here mike what advice would you give to uh to could be the time that we did have with them well no this is wonderful you're sitting down talking to him and you know he's not fighting no more he's not thinking about fighting so just be an entrepreneur help him out make him help make a lot of money and give it away if he doesn't really think much of it and stuff that's what i do okay give a lot of my stuff away yeah a lot of people that need it eating some animal so yeah so even so this is this is business advice for him because you feel like typically when you do give advice mike it's always like you know well this is the business advice and for family he should prepare for that yeah you know but um think he's my kids are cool and happy and there's other kids that need to be cool and happy too yeah what about you ali anything any uh words for for for khabib leading to the future now that he's retired i think habib has he's finished his sports legacy but i think now continue a different legacy a business venture and one of the things he's here his corner and guys making ten thousand dollars a fight you know like stay away from his family two months uh take care of everybody he's just doing it he's he's continuing the legacy of his father you know yeah and his father put this in him and now this is all his father stood in zubaira islam umar usman and now he's continuing he keeping the legacy alive the nurmagomedov family legacy alive and uh and a lot of people run now they just want to go anayakt and spend millions of dollars and stuff like that no they will help you spend your millions of dollars they don't go in the yard and spend their money you're gonna help you spend your money no yeah he's he's here like cornering guys in bellator this weekend and guys they don't make much money he's just here for the love of what he does and this is his father you know this is his father and he's continuing the legacy of his father i think that's what it is and that's a violent thing to do yeah i wish i had a legacy for my father to live yeah i think for me khabib is like obviously we're about the same age i'm a couple years older than you you know coming from freestyle wrestling and uh i know i know a lot of what you've gone through even even retired now your upbringing you know which you know your father was always on you you know from from everything from being you know from dagestan to the rivalry with chechnya and all that i know how you guys uh you know all that i just want to say man that uh leaving 29 and no man to leaving 29 and no pound for power man it's uh it's it's beautiful man to leave a top i don't think people recognize or realize that how beautiful it is to leave on your terms man and uh i just want you to close it out for the fans man there's gonna get millions of followers here whatever it is that you want to uh to give to the people i just wanna say you know it's like this this game is like not for people or you know like for mental weak people you know this game is like for very tough guys you know it's like if you want to become champion you know you have to understand like you have to sacrifice your time your family like like your like everything what you have you have to sacrifice this is about sacrifice if you're not ready to sacrifice you have to sit home this is just my advice for young guys he wanna become great champion you know and uh patience patience passion hard work sacrifice like without these things doesn't matter how talented you are this is don't not work it's gonna work when you're beginning but when you go to the true like like this is not work you know you have to sacrifice everything what you what you have you know then you can become great champion yeah awesome well there we have it man thank you for coming mike any closing thoughts were we good i just believe like he was saying um this game is not for weak men but it can make weak men strong that's right it's like you either yeah exactly man exactly that's awesome guys well man it's been a pleasure awesome day of the day ali i mean this is this is this is legendary here yeah before we end here i just want to know your thing because remember you said you got nervous you know first time you had mike how cool was his experience now she had a relationship he came to my house and chilled out at the hat too yeah how cool is his manitoba sit here and talk to mike about your history living a legend you know it was i i have like you said this before when beginning like you have dream meet with muhammad ali

Khabib responded very maturely about Conor's insult to his late father, what a classy guy.

And props to Cejudo for actually asking questions and pulling most of the weight.

Cejudo is a really good moderator

Best comment from YT :

I hope this encourages Khabib to start a podcast with DC called “Let’s Talk Now”

[u/O_Methodical]

"I came here for War and I found nobody" - Khabib about fighting Conor

"I wanted to eat his heart"

Jesus Christ.

Such a waste with Tyson so smacked up

[u/sorenwasamuslim]

If Mike is always this stoned for every episode then this shit should be called Cejudo and co.

[u/Bapu_Ji]

Very insightful. I feel like I could listen to another hour of this.

Khabib needs to do more interviews/go on more podcasts. It's so interesting listening to his childhood stories and his thoughts about his career and post retirement life. And his general philosophy and outlook on day to day life.

Doing Joe Rogan would do crazy numbers or start one with DC like someone else pointed out.

[u/Exotic_Pickle_1415]

It felt like Mike wasn't even there mentally because he was so stoned. Khabib on JRE would be much more interesting imo

This is my first time watching Hotboxin, and God damn are the plugs fucking hilarious. CCC and Tyson both sound like fucking robots lmao
