This is why I tell people that these Muslim "heroes" we have are pretty much useless. Lex Fridman is a Jewish supremacist who does flattering interviews with Benjamin Netanyahu and Jared Kushner to sell the genocide in Gaza. Lex will let Netanyahu spread his lies about Gaza unchallenged, but he'll scream in Kanye's face about how he needs to visit a Holocaust Museum for his "vile antisemitism". And now Khabib is giving him a 3 hour long interview? I've never seen Khabib give a Muslim content creator a 3 hour long interview.

Here's my conversation with Khabib Nurmagomedov (@TeamKhabib), one of the greatest fighters of all time. It was truly an honor to get to train with him, to have this deep conversation, and to get to know him over the past few months. We did this conversation entirely in Russian. It's translated and dubbed into English. Both language audio tracks and subtitles are available on YouTube. Here on X, I'm posting the English & Russian language versions as seperate videos. The translation & dubbing was a huge amount of work (which I deeply care about) with humans & AI collaborating. Thanks to the amazing team at @ElevenLabs for their help. Good luck to Islam Makhachev, Khabib & team this weekend at UFC 330! And as I've said in the video, I'm truly grateful for all of you, for your support all these years. I love you all ❤️ Timestamps: 0:00 - Introduction 1:35 - Why Dagestan produces so many great fighters 11:41 - History of Dagestan warrior culture 21:02 - Hard training in the mountains of Dagestan 24:53 - The trap of fame, money, and power 35:34 - The key to Khabib's dominance 46:47 - Discipline and hard work 59:15 - Street fights in Dagestan 1:12:56 - Khabib's top pressure 1:18:40 - Khabib vs Conor McGregor 1:31:25 - Khabib's toughest fight 1:39:12 - Greatest MMA fighters of all time 1:56:57 - Coaching 2:02:30 - Daniel Cormier 2:06:48 - Islam Makhachev 2:16:46 - Dana White 2:20:16 - Joe Rogan 2:22:31 - Ali Abdelaziz 2:25:08 - Football 2:32:23 - Messi vs Ronaldo 2:50:23 - Dubai 2:54:14 - God 3:01:57 - Advice for young people
