00:08minute medical exam revealed that omron shaban had a cold sore that wasn't fully healed based
00:14on the medical exam today or we can't be cleared for today that's a big deal it's very contagious
00:19his fight against russian shamit khan magomedov was postponed we'll reschedule the fight for
00:24next week i think it's the right decision for all fighters switzerland's robert valentine and
00:30yannis bashar of greece were next in line and robert became the first middleweight to claim
00:37a spot in the semis with one of the fastest knockouts in top history flooring bashar in just
00:4418 seconds
00:49then australia's khan awfully dominated england's nathan fletcher
00:54to take home a decision win in the second featherweight matchup khan oh let's go

02:36congratulations man well done thank you yeah good bye bro see you today you're a nice fellow i can
02:42now be i know nice to you yeah i could tell you were a nice fellow my wrestling really shined
02:49in this fight where i was able to control the fight i was able to take the fight where i wanted
02:54to take it and pin my opponent i feel like it was a dominant performance i tried to explode to get
03:01up because i thought i was settling and then you flattened me out with the hooks yeah so i was like
03:04i needed to block that hook when i just thought just get up but rather than technically creating
03:09a frame and getting up i just yeah i rushed it a little bit but in my mind this was a two-round
03:13fight and i was down so i needed to finish i saw my opportunity and i jumped on it and obviously
03:18you know he did the right thing defending it well i just think i needed to be a bit more urgent in
03:23there and i was far too relaxed i knew it's going to be a tough sass man i i'll be honest i said
03:28when i went into the room they asked me who i wanted to fight and i said i wanted to fight you
03:32because i thought you were the best here okay i said that i was like i'm here to challenge myself
03:36i think colin's the best on their team i want to fight him first when i'm fresh so i can see where
03:39i'm at and i said out of everyone i think that you know nathan's the most talented all-rounded you
03:45know like that's here you know so i was also excited to fight you yeah that's why we do it in
03:52yeah so challenge ourselves
04:05i'm very excited now for the other fights because i can see that will be cool and i
04:10think that it will be nice that you help us robert will be in the corner with us because
04:15robert told us like hey i'm training with these guys i would like to be there for the corner
04:21helping them and i said of course i mean you are training with them you two guys start on this one
04:26push-ups you lay on top you push explosive we're shifting a little bit to focus to the other guys
04:33who we're gonna fight soon our team has very good energy and you really get to know the people that
04:41you spend the most time with for me it's like huge honor to help alexa and of course my team
04:48i'm happy that robert is helping me to motivate and hold fast for the big guys they can relate
04:58for him because you know they're they're same weight class so i think it's important for us
05:03as a team that we are getting you know closer with each other we're supporting
05:08us as much as we can and we are improving as a as a team too
05:12robert is like very experienced no doubt that he'll sharpen my tools uh along the way
05:21i like his energy you know he has good energy and he helps people excellent robert that looks great
05:27robert's quarterfinal win was one of the most impressive i've ever seen on the ultimate fighter
05:32you know he goes in and knocks out a striker like janice that quickly makes a huge statement and it
05:38makes a huge statement and it obviously must have impressed alexa because then she decided
05:43to let robert help coach the rest of the team as they prepare for their fight so
05:47we're gonna find out if this guy can coach as well as he can fight
05:56so what we want to do first here or i do pads first
06:00got it so a little warm-up you know to get their muscles done
06:04good ombron's is fighting against a guy from russia shamir khan his strongest weapon is
06:12the wrestling he likes to do the back and the hooks but i think it's a good match up from
06:18ombron because he likes to do a lot of submissions and he loves to use his arms when someone is
06:23trying to take him down kicks i think kick your range yeah front tips right but these are kind
06:29i think you can grab it i think if i kick his head or yeah because my biggest advantage in
06:36this fight is definitely my long range jab my kicks and my counter punches don't get too close
06:43because he will immediately go down so hit him and get away there and if we end up grappling
06:50i'm much better grab there everybody thinks i'm a striker but i think i have like three four
06:55submissions
07:07my professional record is six on one when i started mma i wasn't a specialist so i love
07:12striking but i started walking about my grafting wrestling and like now i think
07:20i'm gonna be the new generation that is like in the may fire so we are good everywhere
07:24there was an uppercut rocked i'm gonna be backwards i had my title fight in ua warriors
07:29i finished the guy in the fifth round for the title
07:38i have like other promotions but i don't care about anything else i just care about dfc because
07:43i know there's the best competition lovely footwork by shabang as he circles off i want
07:48to be one of the youngest there and i want to compete in the highest level i want to show the
07:51world that i will be the best declaring your winner by way of anaconda choke in the red corner
08:10what shamit khan does when he gets pressed back he always throws a loopy right hand
08:16goes for left single leg and then he tries to take people down
08:19i should like keep him in my job let him shoot here if he like boom now let's go to him right
08:27break down boom next time you know what you can play he's coming coming maybe i can win this
08:35fight you can handle this guy you know what to do i'm gonna make him tired yes yes i will
08:42so much that his face gonna come i'm gonna do damage
09:04i'm muslim so my faith is everything to me you know like it's everything like i always say like
09:10i'm here to do basically do like we have to say serve allah so save god you know
09:17how is sham sham is a muslim isn't it have you fought another muslim before
09:21all right my last opponent was muslim yeah do you find any difference fighting someone with
09:25the same faith or not really no like i prayed with champ yeah and they asked me like oh you
09:30pray with champ like how is it with fighting him like be honest with you bro for me fighting is
09:35like you know i think i'm i'm great at it yeah so it's like i feel just a fight man you know
09:42windy cage it's my job the best way to do it you detach reality from that yeah man that's different
09:47bro that's as i say like you don't have to be mad angry or something just like you're gonna fight if
09:52you're skilled good conditioned you're a good fighter you're gonna win simple yeah emotions
09:59don't come into it no yeah man it's that's it you know sometimes it's fun to go and like live

14:05a week before but omran was not cleared medically but now it's back on
14:13this fight it was two months ago posted to the internet and they fought five rounds first round
14:20to understand about the his stand-up and in the fourth or fifth he submit with anaconda choke so
14:27we watched a few fights of omran
14:34omran he is also well-rounded fighter he has a good technical stand-up game
14:41omran
14:54he has very good skills on the ground his anaconda choke is on very high point
15:11so
15:16shamit khan has to start cutting the distance very quick with the punches
15:24head shots body shots and then take fight to the ground i have to take him down i will change level
15:33push and clinch couple punch again go for shu and like five ten minutes you will get tired

22:20something like that is absolutely amazing thank you coach thank you coach
22:39okay guys welcome to the ufcpi we're here for recovery day we're gonna use the pool and sauna
22:47let's enjoy today okay let's go so most of the fighters in the ufc use our performance institute
22:53to recover after either training or fights and today alexa took her team there to get some of
22:58the same perks that our fighters get you know there's physical therapy did you like the needles
23:04yeah very much brother cold plunges we have literally all the state-of-the-art recovery
23:11equipment there basically whatever they need and i think for these guys it was a nice break
23:16from the gym and a chance to recharge as the competition starts to get nasty oh that's so
23:21good thank you you're welcome if you need another therapist i'm here a little bit of rivalry between
23:30you and valentina huh like the eyes of all the russian-speaking countries were on her like
23:37putting her in this spot of nobody can beat her and she was riding on this wave you know
23:43and then you came kind of out of nowhere you know it's weird it's weird also for me because
23:50a lot of people still are thinking that it was a fluke and but now yeah to beat someone as
23:57tough as valentina was amazing because i've shown that i'm super strong i touched it with
24:05my hands i didn't knock down i submitted her and when the fight ended she said oh she won because
24:13i made a mistake but it's okay you know i respect her so much i respect her and i admire her because
24:19she's been a big role model for me since like so long and it's cool when you have someone to compete
24:25like this needs more like because we were both in that fight like wanting to fight and it's for
24:32me it's cool i mean i'm learning and i'm improving and you know getting better and it's really cool
24:37it's kind of weird for me that she does not accept that i did something well
24:41but it's helping motivate me to get our team to win
24:59good afternoon fighters and coaches welcome to tough 32 way in
25:03grasso versus shevchenko first to the scale omran shaban
25:11the fight between sham and omran it's going to be a great back and forth fight i really do think
25:17omran has the tools to beat sham he's very long he is very skilled and he's tough to get in on
25:24and if you try to get in on him he's going to throw those knees so i'm going to go with omran on this
25:30186 next to the scale shaman khan magomedoff
25:40the fight between shamakan and omran is a very much a striker versus grappler matchup and shamakan
25:46has very very good cage work and very good wrestling so i i don't feel like omran's going
25:50to be able to deal with that and i see shamakan getting either a submission finish or a dominant
25:57two-round decision 184 and a half at 23 years old shaban is the youngest fighter in the competition
26:06but this guy is very well rounded and has a very dangerous submission game so he could finish
26:12anybody in this competition at any time magomedoff has a huge disadvantage when it comes to height
26:18and reach but the guy's a great grappler so what he's gonna have to do is shoot inside
26:23take him down and try to finish him finland versus russia here we go
26:54i'm fighting for my dream for my family i want to give my son all i needed when i was
27:03a child and that's i think biggest motivation for me
27:10that's honor for me represent my country i will rise our flag and we'll be proud
27:16we got it it's over you don't want to go to war with a soldier
27:20definitely means lots to present finland in the biggest stage on the world
27:29i enjoy this and i just do it for myself for my family hello guys hey definitely for a better
27:36future this is everything i'm obsessed with winning man i love winning i just love to be

40:41omram was trying his best to get out of those positions shake him shake him but shama was all
40:48the time trying to take him down and just holding the position against defense megamedov obviously
40:55came in with a good game plan he wanted to overpower and control shaban against the cage
41:00he dominated the grappling exchanges but he didn't do any damage he did get a couple takedowns to
41:05clearly win the round so in the round two chamikhan he started the same way very good strong round
41:15dance he went for a leg lock be careful it was a surprise when shama did that on omram but
41:25omron is good in jujitsu he knows how to get out of those positions through his face through his
41:30face we were just patient because we wanted that his opponent got tired when megamedov grabbed onto
41:37shaban's leg i thought it was over he ain't getting out of that deep but shaban kept his composure
41:44and he got out of it wow i thought there was no way in hell he was getting out of that
41:50when your opponent has longer legs it's not that easy to do the leg load shaban was close to losing
41:58this fight but he got the choke got the win he's out he's out he's asleep
