This guy have a 100% finish rate in his career 🔥 just wow!! He's a monster!!! 17-0
Yep all wins by KO or submission and he is probably the only active fighter with 100 finishing rate for this long currently
@@KakashiMing beterbiev too
Как всегда,Шавкату интервью даётся тяжелее чем сам бой😅😅😅💪💪💪🇰🇿🇰🇿🇰🇿
@@abidkhan-yr5dj ngga who cares about that dudd we talkin MMA
Khabib have perfect record too, those people from dagestan are savages
17 wins 17 finishes.... I don't think anyone has done What Shavkat has🔥🔥
The future champ from Kazakhstan 🇰🇿🇰🇿🇰🇿
He didn’t even grapple, giving Geoff what he wanted in a stand up fight. Let’s go! Shavkat
I think he couldn't because Geoff Neal had a size advantage due to missing weight
@@jonathanallan8005 he could grapple but he wanted a war.
Shavkat was tired
@@jonathanallan8005 yes he weighed close to 180.
And in the end he's like "fk it I don't need to take you down to submit you".
Respect to Kazakhstan love from Azerbaijan
Salam Aleikoum my Azeri Brothers Shavkat speaks Russian or Kazakhs ? And you like Azeri you understand Kazakh Language or not ?

Shavkat next champion! Brazil support. 🇰🇿 🇧🇷
Thanks 🇰🇿👍🇧🇷
Forget about Khabib, Islam, Khamzat... This guy is the real deal!!! He is truly humble and has an attitude of a champion! 👌💪
@BraxZone I don't care about religion and I know for sure that "Being a Muslim" does not make you automatically a good human being!!! 😅 A lot of bad people around the world who are religious...
@BraxZoneThere is 1 champion right now who is Muslim... So I guess it's the Christians who dominate the sport!!! 😅
And also Abduminap Nurmagomedov trained and corned Shavkat Rakhmonov first fight
@BraxZone Calling Khamzat a Muslim is a stretch he is an absolute asshole against everybody and is still hanging around with a murderous dictator. Khabib said no and stayed humble before under and after his career. Khamzat is basically Russian Mcgregor
@@pprotectas8423 to be fair... Khamzat, Shavkat, Islam, khabib,Ankalev, umar n usman have been defeating 100 Christians fighters in total n only suffered 1 or 2 losses. That's a fair n honest comparison. .
A star was born tonight Dude is a Beast
He took a clean full on hit from neil yet he still carried on invading neils space, khazaks are known to have granite chins, golovkin from boxing was one of them. Tough warriors
GOOD👍
I've had my eye on him for a long time now, and he's easily one of my favorite fighters. I've been to Almaty, the people there are solid as stone. I am 100% behind this kid. Go get 'em Shavkat! Don't be surprised if you see a LOT of people ducking this guy.
Where are you from?
@@erkindikkenezhetsin Istanbul.
@@DeadGlassEyes hosh geldiniz kardesim to Almaty, will glad everyone here :)
Funny cuz in Kazakhstan people often think people from Almaty are the softest and nicest
17 fights, 17 finishes .Crazy
dude talking in his language literally makes it feel like he's Ghengis Khan 😂
His celebration after the fight is just having some meals with his fans and family. No party, no alcohol, and stay halal. Similar to those other Kazakh, Dagestani and Chechen fighters when they celebrate their wins. Mashaallah walhamdulillah.
Shavkat said in interview that he felt that Geoff was minimum 90 kg - 198 lbs.
What a rat. Ruined his first training camp and then comes in as a middleweight. So unprofessional. I guess he had to try anything for a win
What a savage! Has finished all his fights- this one within the last minute against a very tough dude. Killer instinct for sure!! 🔥
This Shavkat Rakhmonov guy's a real problem and very likely a future champ in a year or so
The dog that’s inside this man soul is unmatched my guy a FINISHER 17 finishes stop fuckin playin wit him he the real deal

Молодец только казакча суйлойбер жарайсын ийгилик
Шавкат құттықтаймын бауырым.Сіз біраз уақыттан бері UFC-дегі менің сүйікті боксшымсыз. Маған осы баспасөз мәслихатында орыс тілінде емес, қазақ тілінде сөйлегеніңіз ұнайды. Осылай жалғастырып, еліңізді мақтан ете беріңіз деп сенемін. Мен бұл пікірге аудармашыны пайдаландым. .Түркиядан ата-баба жеріне сәлем.
Impressive fighter. Can’t wait to see what he can do against top 5 fighters. I wish he’d learn to speak english tho so he can be more marketable and then the UFC would have no reason to not give him a bigger spotlight and title shot
Dana actually likes him even commended him for the fight
his biggest fight yet is learning English. In no time he will know basic words like smash & Brother
i believe he is learning english but its probably not proficient enough
@@justinm1721 great comment lmao
he barely speak russian, he speak kazakh in daily
Masya Allah Shakvat Rakhmonov Beat Geoff Neal Alhamdulillah 🥰🤗

This guy is only going to get better
Unsung hero and another rising star who will be UFC champion 🏆 very soon.
Geoff Neil hit him with a clean combo, slipped shavkats uppercut and countered with 3 hooks that almost dropped him. Was one of the cleanest combinations ive seen in the octagon. Hats off to Shavkat, took it to neil from the get go and bought out the best of each other
He's streaking is improve verry well, specially he's footwork
Алға Шавкат. Тек жеңіс, сен НАҒЫЗ БАТЫРСЫҢ. АЛҒА ҚАЗАҚСТАН, АЛҒА ҚАЗАҒЫМ. АЛЬХАМДУЛИЛЛЯХ
This was a great fight. And what a way to finish it. 🙏👍
Шавкат сияқты Арыстан Жігіттер аз жоқтың қасы деседе болады.Шавкат нағыз Қазақ нағыз еркек 👍👍👍
The future champion, what an athlete 💐 Khamzat is sooo hyped, he is not even 50% of Shavkhat
You don't have to put one down to raise another. Khamzat is not hype is a special one of a kind talent
Been a fan of this guy. He’s the fucking truth, much love to Shavkat from the USA. 🙏❤️🫡
his calmness and modesty cause liking and respect
Jeff deliberately put on weight. He knew that Shavkat would still fight, and secondly he was afraid of Shavkat's fight.
You’ve never cut weight, I wouldn’t make assumptions because you never know what can happen to make that brutal process even worse. Also his takedown defense was extremely good, doesn’t mean he was scared. It didn’t end up mattering anyway for either thing as Shavkat is way too good but you just hating
@@danny4081 2 kilograms is not even 500 grams. For the level of such fights where each blow can blow the opponent's head off, weight is key, plus a quick good recovery.
@@danny4081 for good Shavkat should have refused the fight. Geoff has already ruined their fight 2 times. But he thought about his fans
@@danny4081 2.2 kg overweight) You write as if you are constantly losing weight. Do you understand that according to the rules, Shavkat could refuse?!
Поздравляю братьев казахов🇦🇿🤝🇰🇿

perfect perfomance by Shavkat. Congratulations champ!
good performance! But he needs abit of "head movement, head movement." *Travis Browne
17-0, 17 finishes. dana definitely now knows shavkat is no joke and he will get the title shot very soon probably right after his next fight maybe against scared colby if he takes the fight
Good fighter, solid victory. I'd like to see him work on his striking and defense though. Zero head movement and drops his hands after throwing strikes leaving himself open.
Without a doubt future champion
what a fighter 👍🇰🇿👑😁😁
Turan's terminator - Shavkat Rahmon. Now he's reiting 6 and very good! Shavkat is future champion! Turannan shıqqan tuñgısh çempyon bolsın dep tileymiz!

Менеджер Шавката, Саят хороший переводчик)
Саят в целом красавчик :)
@@bakdaulet8300 не могу знать. Он и с русского иногда переводит не все. Может он переводит только тл, что надо слышать мерикосам. Хотя я не в курсе что там Шавкат по казахски говорит.
Аудармашы емес, бірақ жалпы жақсы аударып жатыр.Қазақша аудармашылар қазір баршылық.
Забавно, что Шавкат по-казахски отвечает, переводчик ему по-русски и обратно по-английски переводит
What a fighter!!!
If he learnt GGG level English he will be a mega star
Еееу құдай жаным Алла күш қуат берсін❤
According to USADA Shavkat’s testosterone level were abnormally high not duo to PEDs but duo the Laura Sanko effect

Че там бастаймыз ба? Бір екі😂
I'm proud of shavkat ....let's get more competitive fights lined up. Take on a dangerous skilled fighter next!
Future Champ 100%
Shavkat vs Khamzat we want that fight next
He's not ready, but he will be in under a year.
UFC will protect their boy
Rakhmonov 🔥🔥🔥🇰🇿🇰🇿🇰🇿
17 wins, 17 finishes.. Yeah.. Give him a top five fighter next!
The interesting thing is the questions are in Russian but he only answers in the Kazakh language. I know he gave plenty of interviews in Russian but I think its a smart choice right now to distance himself from being confused as a Russian to much political shit in sport right now.
Shavkat is a warrior 🔥
UFC 285 was his Khamzat vs Burns moment. Can’t wait to see where he goes from here
Still not a perfect fighter, but has a solid and beautiful behaviour in the octogon. Probably, we have here the next welterweight champion.
Imagine Rakhmonov vs Chiemaiv. This will be the best fight ever!!
it would be great but I think Khamzat is gonna go up to MW based on recent comments he's made, plus his last fight being 8 lbs over might be better for him to move up and stay at MW
Shavkat 🔥
Future champion
Geoff gave Shavkat a challenge. Really nice to see.
Shavkat champ🇰🇿🇰🇿
The Next Big Thing
Шавкат керемет көңіл күй сыйладың рахмет
