Khabib pieced him up on the feet. He said he didn't feel threatened against Al and wanted to just try some of his boxing. God Damn

"...and that's how I nearly won a round" - Al "the blueprint" iaquinta

What most people don't understand is that Khabib also had a 1 day notice against Al. Al's also got a solid wrestling background and is tough as they come. Even if it went all 5 rounds, Khabib was really just playing with and testing his striking skills like he was sparing (in a title fight!), and still won 50-43 in all the judges scorecards. *Dominant* 5 rounds.

Al iaquinta blocked all nurmagmedove jabs by his nose man. Real gangster 😂

Iaquinta is the type of guy, whichs career highlight is a loss

losing 50-43 isnt really much of a blueprint is it ?

So are they talking about a blueprint to lose all five rounds? What sane person would want to use this blueprint?

Khabib played with iaquinta, could have finished him in any moment, look how he went in beast mode against poirier in round 1

I hope Al doesn’t get Cocky for going 5 rounds. Khabib chose to stand with him most of the fight. No doubt Al is a beast tho.

People Forget Khabib had his opponent changed 3 times in a week before he fought Al

Didnt these guys hear khabib's coach sayin "I was laughing in my head" when Ariel asked about guillotine..

Iaquinta is an excellent fighter. The praise he's getting for loosing to Khabib surpasses by miles the praise he received for all his wins combined. Conclusion: Khabib is P4P #1

Never try to out wrestle Khabib or he’ll get mad and you will get choked out for real. Man, people never learn.

Khabib is the GOAT

Iaquinta showed the blueprint? LOOOOOOOOOOL. He lost to 50-43 50-44 50-43. Khabib just played with him. Khabib had also zero time to prepare for Iaquinta and he outboxed him on the feet and mauled him on the ground too while he was speaking to Serra and Longo at the same time.

Khabib “I practice jabs and kick in a title fight against AL” Numagomedov

Als face was bloodied and bruised after that fight wtf is he on about

I honestly think that Khabib could've got out of the choke immediately but he choose to let Dustin burn his arm out because he's that much confidant in his submission defense, he did that against RDA in 2014 as well, anything is possible in mma, but I honestly think that people would have a much much better chance to KO Khabib than getting that stubborn to submit.

Can we stop saying al showed the blue print to beat khabib when he got absolutely dominated.

Khabib didn't even go for a takedown after 3rd round he was just practicing his striking on al laquinta, khabib was testing his abilities because he knew he has won the fight.

Al gave the blueprint for how to lose 50-43 lol.

I think it was clear that khabib was just getting in mat time and could have finished al whenever he wanted to

I think Khabib was fooling us all by saying it was close. Coach Javier said he was laughing as Khabib always came out easily from guillotine many times before. He knows the trick by moving his hips to ease out.

AL Iaquinta is so humble. Love for him ❤️

When you interview one of the students who survived a bus accident.

Khabib is so damn good conor , Al , poirier all gonna argue who got the worst from the champ

Matt Serra is a Goat, is still in UFC bcz he is nonpartisan , unbiased and lively. Unlike , khabib hating chael sonnen and Ariel helwani. Those guys just want to see khabib lose and I love to see mud on their faces after every fight. They are the guys saying hating shit in loving way. Love you Matt. God bless you. Livelong livestrong. "Al is the real Brooklyn gangster" ~ Khabib. Shoutout to Jim Norton.

We all know khabib take it easy on al. Khabib can finish al in 1st round if he wanted to.

Tony Freguson the type of guy to introducing Bruce Buffer before the fight

Khabib: "Al Iaquinta is real Brooklyn gangster "

I love Al. He is very honest and real. Khabib likes him so much and always respect him for that quality

Tony is the type of guy to do a spinning back fist to turn off the light switch

Khabib chose to stand with Al and he won 50-44, 50-43, 50-43. Why do they keep talking like Al almost won the fight?

Al is one of my favorite fighters hands down!!! Love the guys character...🤩

The commentary near the beginning had me confused. I thought I missed something. I began frantically looking for videos of this guy beating Khabib. Blueprint? Yes. On how to not not not win.

Tony Ferguson the type of guy to congratulate Al on his loss.

I think dustin did better than al against khabib, at least he landed a punch and a choke, al got shitted on both stand up and on the ground for 5 rounds

Man, I don't understand why they keep putting Al on a pedestal where he doesn't deserve to be. Khabib simply didn't want to end the fight. If you see the fight, Khabib decided to stand up much more and when he knocked Al down, he left him in very dangerous positions, much more dangerous than Dustin was for example.

Super underrated fighter, Al did actually give khabib the best fight he’s had on short notice, but I won’t hold my breath for UFC recognition. Keep your head up Al, you’re a beast

Al talking some real shit! Good analysis my friend💪🏼

Nobody can discuss khabib i said it 10 years ago he s the law n we ve got to respect the law that s it

It's khabib time.

Maaaad respect for Al 💪🏻 I'm a Khabib SUPERfan and I really really like Al

Al is a stand up guy, he's so honest .

Laquinta is real Brooklyn Gangsta 😂🦅

Real Brooklyn gangster

Khabib is the type of the guy that practice his boxing skill in the title match.

Iaquinta’s wrestling is incredible. There were times where he challenging Khabib with his wrestling. Iaquinta is a true beast.

Al is terrible lol. Getting beat up for 5 rounds because Khabib wanted to doesn’t make you a world beater 😂.

Go back and watch their fight… Al could have been choked out at least three different times that I saw but for some reason Khabib didn’t go for it.

Thnx guys. Respect

al did exceptionally well, going the distance with khabib , is an a+, and rare.

Lol I thought al was wearing a shirt with his name and rank written on it

He wanted it to go 5 rounds ...Al’s eyes were almost both shut.

Khabib’s head pressure and stamina are still not talked about enough. He wears people out and does what he wants. If khabib got hurt he sure didn’t show it. He looked fresh as a daisy after the fight. Big props to Al and he deserves a rematch way more than Connor.

I love Al IaQquinta . He is very humble..

Matt Serra needs to tell al iquinta to use foot work and to not get hit by uppercuts and teap kicks and to straight hit

Just cut the crap! Khabib is just 2 gud

Lots of respect to that kid! Mat Serra too. Great fighters good human being

Khabib Nurmagomedov. A name you’ll never forget. You’ll either have thoughts of uplifting inspiration and joy, or pure reoccurring nightmares.

"No shit, that's what he does." I'm from LI and I can tell you that's such a typical LI comment.

Matt Serra sounds like Eddie bravo with an jersey accent

So many discussion, everywhere discussions, so much of the discussions, one man that everyone wants to be beaten by someone. The mighty Khabib still the undefeated king of the business. Khabib indeed the Legend of the UFC history ever. My salute to this great Champ!

Al is a likeable person. Honest and straight up

Khabib is dominant in every fight. Totally on a different level from his opponents, and is respectful to his opponents (except that 1 guy). It's unlikely that he will be beaten. He's so good.... I don't get excited for his fights anymore, it's more like a formality than a challenge. Tyson and Mayweather (Boxing),Hamilton and Schumacher (F1 Racing), Valentino Rossi (MotoGP) Demitrious, GSP, Silva... after a while you just expect them to dominate every single time. As a fan, I'd love to see Khabib challenged by something new. Like moving up in weight and challenging bigger/other guys. He wants to add to his legacy... challenging himself will do that. Fight GSP at 170. Not 155. Guys dropping weight later in their careers/getting up in age usually don't do as well as they used to do in their actual weightclass. Beating a depleted and smaller GSP at 155 isn't a true legacy achievement In my opinion. (Hyperbolic) example: Cejudo would beat Stipe at 125. Because Stipe wouldn't survive the weightcut, if he somehow does, he will be weak. But first... Tony.

Al only showed the blueprint of how to survive a 5 round mauling against Khabib

respect to AL for keeping it real

Matt and Al - two of my favorite dudes in the MMA world. I love Jimmy, too.

Khabib was just playing around with AL Iaquinta watch the fight gave Al planty of chance to nock him out i think

Al iaquinta without preparation gone whole 5 round khabib couldn't finish him that's real gansta

Much respect for Al

Dustin was waiting on the level Change and reacting to khabib before he even went from it.khabib instills fear crazy just watching it unfold

Anyone found that Conor vs Khabib has been removed by UFC 🙋🏼‍♂️

"Khabib played with Al" **Only lands jabs for three rounds** 😂

Al laquinta had Matt Serra on his corner and Al listened ...that was the game changer .

would love for a regular ufc podcast with fighters

Well, Al's done the best so far id say. That is until Khabib fights Tony. Tony is a puzzle that Khabib and Tony himself cant solve.

Al fought to survive against Khabib, Conor and Dustin fought to win. Big difference in my opinion

Very humble and talented guy

So lasting full rounds with khabib makes u unbelievable

Matt Serra joining rumble at heavyweight I see

the stephen thompson fighting stephen thompson commerical is hilarious to me. dillashaw lowkey sad :(

It's a testament to how good Khabib is that this guy has had multiple long interviews about managing to only receive a non-humiliating beating.

This was a good show!!

👊Khabib Beat the Devil out of Poirier and Iaquinta

tony is the type of guy who got knocked down and asks "are u okay?" to his opponent

respect to matt serra for being very cautious about interrupting al , unlike these other podcasters . Funny how hes the type of guy ud expect to interrupt others constantly

Nothing, but respect for Al Iaquinta!

Yaquinta is real brooklyn gangster 😎

😎Henry cejudo Tony Ferguson Brian Ortega Tito Ortiz Cain Velasquez Gilbert Melendez Dominick Cruz Kelvin Gastelum yair Rodriguez Mexico baby

AL vs corrone was the best......al took somuch to his head and still stood till end.....that was a brutal fight.

Al is still a beast. Dude took the fight in super short notice. Not prepared for a grappler and still held strong for 5 rounds . So mad respect.... But there was no blueprint.

It's not like khabib trained for Al tho lol

Al making a name of himself by losing and getting used as target practice by khabib. So overrated his only credible win is against a 155 masvidal and kevin lee 2x depending on if you think lee is trash or not and honestly masvidal loses alot so even that win is average

Khabib has become a mythical creature, a living legend of sorts.

Ya Quinta real Brooklyn gangster, Very good fighter 👍 Bright future 👍

🍔 I'm the chosen one

They making deal out of this guy. He sucks khabib played with him. The dude also got punked my cowboy. Wish wish wish you had no chance against khabib

Love Al's insight into fighting Khabib. Pat Healy also has some interesting things to say about fighting Khabib. Hearing Tony say that he wants to take the ground fight to Khabib is not a good sign. His team should be focusing on stearing clear of the cage, counters, and bear mace.

AL KEEP FIGHTING!!! you are better than you think
