#500 – Khabib Nurmagomedov: Dagestan, MMA, UFC, Islam, Conor, Fedor & Football

Over deze aflevering

<p>Khabib Nurmagomedov is one of the greatest fighters of all time, who retired from the UFC undefeated with a perfect 29-0 record. We did this conversation entirely in Russian. It&#8217;s translated and dubbed into English. Both language audio tracks (and subtitles) are available on YouTube. Here, only the English audio is available. We worked hard to make it enjoyable to listen to, by carefully dubbing the translation using voice-cloning, as we&#8217;ve done for previous foreign-language podcasts.</p> <p>Thank you for listening ❤ Check out our sponsors: <a href="https://lexfridman.com/sponsors/ep500-sc">https://lexfridman.com/sponsors/ep500-sc</a><br /> See below for timestamps, transcript, and to give feedback, submit questions, contact Lex, etc.</p> <p><b>Transcript:</b><br /> <a href="https://lexfridman.com/khabib-nurmagomedov-transcript">https://lexfridman.com/khabib-nurmagomedov-transcript</a></p> <p><b>CONTACT LEX:</b><br /> <b>Feedback</b> &#8211; give feedback to Lex: <a href="https://lexfridman.com/survey">https://lexfridman.com/survey</a><br /> <b>AMA</b> &#8211; submit questions, videos or call-in: <a href="https://lexfridman.com/ama">https://lexfridman.com/ama</a><br /> <b>Hiring</b> &#8211; join our team: <a href="https://lexfridman.com/hiring">https://lexfridman.com/hiring</a><br /> <b>Other</b> &#8211; other ways to get in touch: <a href="https://lexfridman.com/contact">https://lexfridman.com/contact</a></p> <p><b>EPISODE LINKS:</b><br /> Khabib&#8217;s Instagram: <a href="https://instagram.com/khabib_nurmagomedov/">https://instagram.com/khabib_nurmagomedov/</a><br /> Khabib&#8217;s YouTube: <a href="https://youtube.com/@KhabibTheEagle">https://youtube.com/@KhabibTheEagle</a><br /> Khabib&#8217;s Facebook: <a href="https://facebook.com/KhabibTheEagle/">https://facebook.com/KhabibTheEagle/</a><br /> Khabib&#8217;s X: <a href="https://x.com/TeamKhabib">https://x.com/TeamKhabib</a><br /> Khabib&#8217;s Telegram: <a href="https://t.me/khabib_nurmagomedov">https://t.me/khabib_nurmagomedov</a><br /> Khabib&#8217;s Website: <a href="https://khabib.com">https://khabib.com</a></p> <p><b>SPONSORS:</b><br /> To support this podcast, check out our sponsors &#38; get discounts:<br /> <b>Wispr Flow:</b> AI-powered voice dictation app.<br /> Go to <a href="https://lexfridman.com/s/wispr_flow-ep500-sc">https://wisprflow.ai/lex</a><br /> <b>LMNT:</b> Zero-sugar electrolyte drink mix.<br /> Go to <a href="https://lexfridman.com/s/lmnt-ep500-sc">https://drinkLMNT.com/lex</a><br /> <b>Shopify:</b> Sell stuff online.<br /> Go to <a href="https://lexfridman.com/s/shopify-ep500-sc">https://shopify.com/lex</a><br /> <b>BetterHelp:</b> Online therapy and counseling.<br /> Go to <a href="https://lexfridman.com/s/betterhelp-ep500-sc">https://betterhelp.com/lex</a><br /> <b>Perplexity:</b> AI-powered answer engine.<br /> Go to <a href="https://lexfridman.com/s/perplexity-ep500-sc">https://perplexity.ai/</a></p> <p><b>OUTLINE:</b><br /> (00:00) &#8211; Introduction<br /> (01:29) &#8211; Sponsors, Comments, and Reflections<br /> (08:24) &#8211; Why Dagestan produces so many great fighters<br /> (18:31) &#8211; History of Dagestan warrior culture<br /> (27:51) &#8211; Hard training in the mountains of Dagestan<br /> (31:42) &#8211; The trap of fame, money, and power<br /> (42:23) &#8211; The key to Khabib&#8217;s dominance<br /> (53:36) &#8211; Discipline and hard work<br /> (1:06:04) &#8211; Street fights in Dagestan<br /> (1:19:45) &#8211; Khabib&#8217;s top pressure<br /> (1:25:29) &#8211; Khabib vs Conor McGregor<br /> (1:38:14) &#8211; Khabib&#8217;s toughest fight<br /> (1:46:02) &#8211; Greatest MMA fighters of all time<br /> (2:03:46) &#8211; Coaching<br /> (2:09:19) &#8211; Daniel Cormier<br /> (2:13:38) &#8211; Islam Makhachev<br /> (2:23:35) &#8211; Dana White<br /> (2:27:05) &#8211; Joe Rogan<br /> (2:29:20) &#8211; Ali Abdelaziz<br /> (2:31:57) &#8211; Football<br /> (2:39:12) &#8211; Messi vs Ronaldo<br /> (2:57:12) &#8211; Dubai<br /> (3:01:03) &#8211; God<br /> (3:08:46) &#8211; Advice for young people</p>
