Nice to see Shavkat being promoted more frequently now. He's 100% going to fight for the Welterweight championship someday.
Sooner than we think I believe. I would like to see him and khamzat go at it tho. He's dispatched all his opponents in such easy fashion. People are gonna start avoiding this kid.
I think he's good enough to be a gate keeper
This is a champion, he has gone through a lot, I believe in him, he is better than any Chimaev, Usmanov, he was compared with Chimaev for 1-2 years, they are similar, Shavkat is a champion, he is a phenomenon, a killer just
UFC not promoting Khamzat anymore since his horrible fight with Burns. If Shavkat beats Magny easily, we’ll see more of him. He’ll be the Golovkin of the UFC
Yea but khamzat gonna be the champ he ain’t
Man, he is a Killer without a Hype. The Real Undefeated with 100% finish. Welterweight, be careful! 🔥
Still not fighting top 10 thou

Future welterweight champion in my opinion.
All welterweight hype is in Khamzat
This guy doesn't yell or scream or say he's going to kill anyone.... he just quietly gets the job done in impressive fashion. He'll be the WW champ by December.
No chance they won't give him a title fight..not main event material
That's promotion
That's actually specifically only for Kazakhs! They never scream!
thats a stretch lmao

What is REALLY impressive imo is that he has a 100% finish rate despite not seeming to rush, and his ability to be so calculated and calm but when needed he can turn it up
What a gentleman killer. He could've landed one more shot with the last opponent but quickly realized he's done so he held back another bomb
He is a bum and he will get smoked next fight.
Perfectly said
yes that's for sure. I remember how others finish off an already knocked out opponent. francis nganu especially with his sledgehammers
yeah if he didnt hold back it coulda set the other guy to brain damage or sleep
His fight IQ is next level he is always a step ahead of his opponents
I heard about this guy awhile back but now looking further into him.. this guy is an amazing fighter, love his style. His kicks are so accurate and clean. I can definitely see him being a future champ.

This guy is the fighter that UFC needs, he strikes and grapples. Not afraid to throw hits and doesn't resort to grappling only. Reminds me of the old school UFC.
Wasnt old school UFC very one dimensional in regards to fighter skills? A lot of them only did one martial art? Or do you mean more along the lines of different rules meant fighters would use anything to win?

Shavkat is ALL ROUNDED meaning hes got excellent striking and ground game, truly a martial artist in the sport of Mixed Martial Arts. All his finishes are bad ass!
This is what I always tell my friends. They're many monsters in Kazakhstan who never got the opportunity show their talent in the UFC. Shavkat is the first kazak fighter to sign with the UFC and is making UFC fighters look like amateurs.
🥴
I'm mexican american but it's true I know how fierce khazaks are much respect to them for their steppe warrior mentality
Russians are beast
Kazaks are a different breed
These are amateurs tho
Shavkat vs Khamzat has to happen one day.
This is a champion, he has gone through a lot, I believe in him, he is better than any Chimaev, Usmanov, he was compared with Chimaev for 1-2 years, they are similar, Shavkat is a champion, he is a phenomenon, a killer just
very possibly for the 🏆 if they both keep winning
@ErrxrN9 lol
@ErrxrN9 Bad fight for Shavkat who lost twice to Khiramagomedov and got dominated on the ground. His fans wont like this but, Shavkat has been dropped before in fights. He's not some unstoppable monster, wait til he fights Sean Brady and gets dominated on the ground.
@@roidster4401 Lol. He's undefeated
Dudes fight IQ is insane he just counters whatever you think you’re about to do. It seems he’s just making his opponents react instead of being proactive
I love how calm and composed he remains when he is on the defensive on the ground.
I can’t wait to see more this guy!!!! Even if his win streak gets cut I’ll still be rooting for this guy.
Killer instinct too real! Definitely another force in this already loaded welterweight division!
i bet my videos will entertain you
Future UFC Welterweight Champion. One of the most well rounded fighters in the world right now. He is going to fulfil his potential one day.
Asians are the next champions
This guy is underrated in the UFC
I remember watching this man for first time against Cowboy Olives in 2020 and knew he would make it. Fast forward 3 years and he’s top 5 and 1 fight away from title still undefeated and 100% finish rate
Luke Thomas had a great analysis of Shavkats ground game. About how he avoids the guard by staying upright. Chimaev stole all his shine at first, but he's getting there. Looking forward to saturdays fightcard, it's going to be a banger.
That’s just these other fighters are better at promoting themselves by putting on an act but shavkhat is letting his fighting do the talking for him when he gets the recognition he deserves it’ll be a lot sweeter knowing he didn’t have to play a fake persona to get noticed.
Who’s Luke Thomas
I think shavkat can beat khamzat

Hes such a monster. The way he spins is so damn fast.
The fact that he landed it while standing so close to him is even crazier. That’s insane accuracy.
@@bigsmall2842 yeah bro shit is unreal. Also the way he sweeps on the ground and his transitions are so sick.
He did a really good job of not telegraphing the kick. He set it up by feinting with his hands. Also in boxing range. Dude had no clue that kick was coming.
did you guys see him spinning his hands in a sort of faint right before that last spinning back kick ? so good !
Fast.. But not on the level with Israel I think.
I've been keeping up with Ultimate Fighting since it's been around and I've never seen anyone like this guy before! He does all the right things at the right time...
He’s an amazing talent. Anime level. So many amazing prospects the ufc is in good hands

I really loved that guillotine technique he used to submit Oliviera. Such a high level display of BJJ fundamentals. This guys a killer.
Fights like a more mature and experienced fighter. Great pace. Can't wait to see him fight the top guys
Neil tapped out to the guillotine even though his coach shouted 5 seconds left; this really shows how strong Shavkat is! Thanks for the inspiration! Shavkat the next Welterweight Champion!
Just for the guys who dont know, a blood choke can put you out in approximately 6 seconds. So had he tried to ride to the bell he might have got choked out
@@iorigin3934 Even less than that
@@iorigin3934 Oliveira tapped almost instantly versus Islam. So it's less than that actually
@@kennymichaelalanya7134 I noticed that islam didnt even turn his hips to make the choke tighter. He did it with pure arm strength which is crazy lol
@@kennymichaelalanya7134 Was that a blood choke tho? I'm just a casual, but from my POV his arm was being placed in a unnatural position.
He fights like he is from 30 years in the future.

Cold blooded KILLER With a perfect understanding of timing, leverage and distance. This guy is a problem.
Exactly
Yeah definitely a known characteristics for Kazakh fighters from what I've noticed, a lot of Kazakh boxers are exceptional pendulum style fighters all seem to have a great understanding of timing, distance & placement
@Wildcard bro u clearly don't keep up with boxing, Kazakhs don't have the promotion & marketing of that of Americans. But you definitely don't know boxing if u don't know janibek, we can ask Andrade who janibek is. Errol spence lost to a kazak boxer in olympics
@Wildcard eheheheh, ok. You must "train UFC".
Stylistically this guy is a nightmare matchup for Usman than Khamzat

This guy is a champion in the making. Has it all from strength, size, skills, an d character. Hopefully continue to polish his all round skills. I would love to see GSP work with this guy - not saying he needs to, but imagine learning from the WW GOAT
His signature move is the spinning kick, so fast with ease.

how effortless he slips his arm around with that guillotine being pressed onto the cage, used his weight to take him down for the finish. fucking brilliant submission

@@Torgomasta you’re the third one in the quote
This man is absolutely frightening. He is genuinely fucking ruthless and relentless. I really really really hope he gets a title shot soon because he is just undeniably talented as all hell and his talent alone deserves him to be within the discussion of title shots. Although admittedly if top welterweights don’t wanna fight him that tells me he smokes all of them no problem and if he gets a title shot it’s gonna take a really good performance from someone within the division to actually beat this guy should he become champion and keeps finishing guys.
The hype is real. Seeing big fights for him in the future
When he finishes Magny I need him in UFC 4. Thanks.
