  • @OnDeenObito
    Islam Makhachev haters have officially begun their journey to become Arman Tsarukyan fans.
  • @qxqcvc
    Cejudo is so jealous of Makhachev's p4p status lmao
  • @naimahmed3720
    Henry Cejudo clearly has something against Islam, his ego is too big to give props to him. Islam out-struck Dustin in his own game, then dominated him on the ground, All whilst having Staph infection!. Poirier did improve his takedown defense since Khabib, but it still wasn't nowhere near enough.
  • @Arabicmaverick
    Who else noticed Henry was kind of low key hating on the Dagestanis?
  • @Velocity10381
    Ya'll acting like Islam didn't win both the striking exchanges and grappling.
  • @theone8878
    Lol this henry is a snake in the grass. Islam and habib should stay away from him. He is so jealous of them.
  • @Reac777
    actually you are low key jealous of khabib camp guys . islam was actually out striking him the whole fight what you mean by saying he got hit ofc he got hit but he also hited back more impressive and more in numbers
  • I’m disappointed with these two especially Henry Cejudo! It’s okay to give props to Dustin and everything he has accomplished because he definitely deserved it but to simply ignore or not recognise what Islam has done is just ridiculous and disrespectful.
  • @ZSergioZ1
    Islam destroyed Dustin’s face, nose. Islam got one cut and Henry is talking about how a pfp shouldn’t got damaged. That is to most stupid thing he could say!
  • @akhtarsafi2687
    The lil guy is a hater first for underestimating Dustin and then for not giving Islam his props for winning despite the adversities that came across him
  • @markshaw1540
    GSP has been in multiple fights where he wore it on his face and he is still considered the GOAT. 3C you disappoint us.
  • @awwa8923
    Cejudo sounds like such a casual hater this entire pod. Just because Islam had visible damage, you can't frame it like a close fight. Islam literally outclassed Porier from all fronts of the fight - Boxing, Wrestling and overall control throughout the 5 rounds. It was a masterclass on display even though the man bled. Full credit to Dustin for the battle he put up, but that was not a close fight at all.
  • @habil5725
    Islam outboxing dustin is something these hypocrites will rarely speak!
  • @puntguyrko
    Lol they never even mentioned that Islam outstruck Porier
  • @haanimi
    this was SO incredibly disrespectful to Islam. Islam had a staph infection coming into the fight and still DOMINATED the first 3 rounds while out-striking poirier. he was clearly a little gassed probably bcuz of the antiobiotics he mustve taken leading up to fight week. All stats are in Islam's favor. He didnt overlook poirier but maybe since you guys are so fixated on how well poirier did, maybe that proves YOU undermined him to be this shocked. Admittedlu poirier defended the takedowns much better than expected and yes he lasted longer but for wrestlers like you to not even acknowledge Islam's beautiful takedowns and the insane russian ankle tie followed by the submission is grossly negligent and reeks of jealousy. shocked you cant acknowledge Islam's absolute domination throughout the first 3 rounds. and then kamaru tries to get his friend gaethje in the mix again. its islam's wish to move up a weight class, lets respect that. and can i remind you iaquinta lasted 5 rounds with khabib too.
  • @Flyhighmr
    Islam is so good, that every opponent hes against and does well against him gets all the credit 😅 that right there shows me that Islam is levels above
  • @L.ay00
    Islam dominated the fight (with Staph and without throwing any kicks) idk what yall are talking about.
