“Khabib had excellent cardio - he could push, push and push. Very good cardio. Islam is more technical, I see from his fights that he does not want to take risks at all. He saves energy because he is afraid to get tired. I heard about this from the guys who trained with him before. Therefore, against Islam, one of the ideas of my gameplan was to crush it, to raise the pace. The takedowns of Islam are also different from the Habib. He uses judo a lot, all these internal holds. Not so often passes in two legs. Therefore, when I was preparing for him, I attracted judokas in order to better understand his style. It is not easy to fight with the guys from judo - they prepare takedowns in a different way, there are differences, ”the RT Sport MMA YouTube channel quotes the fighter.
