2. don’t fuck with people. First it’s morally wrong and illegal. Plus they carry conceal blades and or pistol/revolver. Their company may have ccw too. I don’t want holes in my body. Especially here in Arizona and Texas.

3. very primitive… Muslims…

4. Islam looks like AI is talking

5. Он говорит
   Если бы брат проиграл , то полез бы в драку.

   А перед этим что они один на один.

6. the title is missleading it should be the difference between MMA and Wrestling

7. His father must have been a badass.

8. why does it feel like ai ?

9. The dubbed version doesn't feel very natural and there's no emotion in it.

10. I just can't listen to this AI crap. Just let me have subtitles. Wtf is this bs. And I can't find the option to turn it off on mobile. Who thought this is a good idea? Who wants to listen to this unnatural voice dafuq. I'm out

11. Avoid combat and conflict at all costs in the street. You have no idea who you are going up against. Could be a cold blooded killer.

12. Lex is a great interviewer; lets guest speak

13. I could be wrong but, I get the feeling Khabib jumped everyone he ever had to fight outside the ring

14. Lex, Trump bootlicker. You owe the United States an apology for your support of Trump.

15. Don't forget to check the 710 gauge 😂

16. People still watch Fridman?

17. MMA – a bunch of rules
    Street fighting – NO RULES

18. Legendary episode!!!

19. No rules in a street fight! Cannot imagine how scary Khabib would be with no rules lol…

20. Why so ai?

21. Everyone focuses on Islam’s face, but no one says that his face changed in the 4th round.

22. You may fight in the cause of GOD against those who attack you, but do not aggress. GOD does not love the aggressors. Glorious Qur'an 2:190

23. You may also fight them to eliminate oppression, and to worship GOD freely. If they refrain, you shall not aggress; aggression is permitted only against the aggressors. Glorious Qur'an 2:193

24. "O you who believe, do not prohibit good things that are made lawful by GOD, and do not aggress; GOD dislikes the aggressors." Glorious Qur'an 5:87

25. AI nonsense 😂

26. This look like ai?

27. Lex “I’m a jew” Fridman.

28. BS street is easy for a trained guy…you think im not going straight at the balls and eyes…im going full jon jones eye jab, balls, knee stomp untrained fool destroyed before they get done yapping on how they will kill me etc etc 😂

29. Whats so unique about this? Wrestler with no jiu jitsu experience, of course thats going to happen. This interview taught me absolutely nothing.

30. When Conor talked about street fights to Khabib – This is #1 Bullshit XD

31. You can eye poke and kick in groin and a downed opponent,in street fight

32. His example is not a street fight. Many people don’t know what a street fight is. I left home at 11 from abuse (i had wrestled from 5-11) and grew up on street of NYC and Phili when they were insane and cops didn’t go in many parts. I’ve been in over 500 street fights. I was locked up for 2.5 years and fought 3-4 a week and even had a race war in there where 3 guys tried to take me out in a bathroom. I’m here typing so you know how that went. A street fight isn’t a bar fight or 2 people fighting at a wrestling camp or at a pool hall. It’s real people who fight all week at least once. It’s in an Alley at 3am with no one around and you have to survive. I’ve heard him say he can beat street fighters and he’s a joke. I always knew he was a joke because this is how he sees a street fight-that’s not a street fight. There is no cage so unlimited space and let him try and drag his knees across blacktop. The easiest fights were when someone yelled out they were a black belt in something-for starters they think it will scare a real fighter so now you know they’re scared and they expect shot for shot and that isn’t how a street fight works. There’s so much stuff that illegal in MMA-do you know how headbutts would stop these grapplers? There are so many things including space and hard uneven surfaces that stops these guys. It’s a joke really. Also street fights don’t have a bell-no rounds and when you train your body to take a break then that becomes normal. It’s no different fighting body builders who train sets and take break. They fatigue so easy. If u]you control your adrenaline and scare these type of guys and even multiple guys that’s 75% of winning. It’s not the movies -real life in a dark quiet alley is easy to scare someone like this.

33. This AI translation is a horrible listening experience. Id rather see him speak russian and read subtitles. Awful. None of his personality comes through, you dont get any tone of voice. Truly a terrible technology.

34. And they agreed, as they say, to meet in the parking lot.

35. Too many variables and unknowns in a street fight. A different type of awareness is needed to survive than Sport fighting. I sure do miss it.

36. Dis video is #1 bullshit.

37. Was the interview done in Russian?

38. better ask that guy about wife beating and child abusing in their "republic", hehe

39. Bro what..?

40. "وَقَاتِلُوا فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ الَّذِينَ يُقَاتِلُونَكُمْ وَلَا تَعْتَدُوا ۚ إِنَّ اللَّهَ لَا يُحِبُّ الْمُعْتَدِينَ".
    Fight in the way of God who fights you, and do not transgress, for God does not love the transgressors.
