Khabib vs Lobov slapping situation explained (Lobov's Russian interview translated)

How close do you think his people should have been for Artem to be intimidated?

Artem, being from Russia should have known that his words would not just slide. In Russia the is an expression that you have to be able to ”answer for your words”, you have to take responsibility for your words. It is ok to talk shit about someone if you are prepared to say it to that person’s face and be prepared to take the consequences. Here the guy is playing tough, calling Khabib a coward and saying he will b!tchslap Khabib. When Khabib actually gets in his face and confronts him, he shits his pants and swallows his word.

Khabib himself talks a lot of smack and is actually criticised for that and have a lot of haters in Russia (he has more fans obviously) because of the trash talking. But the difference is that Khabib is always prepared to answer for his words.

No idea why you quoted me to tell me this.
 
Weak move by Khabib to approach Lobov with a massive entourage like that, also not very manly of Lobov to deny his words about Khabib when confronted. Moral of the story? They're all douchebags.
They didn't go there to rescue Khabib from Artem. They went there to rescue Artem from him.

The eagle rolled up and lobo couldn’t hide behind the internets no mo. Explained.

This is true.

But we're douchebags as well, cause in the end, they do that shit to impress us... cause we like to watch violence.

We're all in this together :D

Stop crying.
Khabib always walks during camp with his camp people (which are numerous).
He just happened to encounter Artem Lobov in the hotel and then confronted him as a matter of fact.
Artem is the very definition of the kind of snake I hate in this world. Act all tough behind camera, slandering people, being a general a-hole, etc...Then when confronted for his shit, he denies it. If he had been a man, he would have manned up against Khabib and either apologise, admitting what he did, or fight. Its not like Khabib would have denied him a 1 on 1 fight.

There is no "they are all douchebags". Khabib and his entourage got slandered and they confronted the bastard who did it. That is all. In fact I would have had no problem with these 20 Dagestanis kicking the shit out of that ugly looking snake, but I guess it would have jeopardised Khabib's future in the UFC. Artem deserved it though. Especially seeing his actions later, personally attacking the bus, etc.

Its like the saying goes...If you talk the talk you got to walk the walk. Artem just does the former.
 
How close do you think his people should have been for Artem to be intimidated?
He is a fighter and a badass Russian if I understand what people thinks of him ... Plus, in the heat of the moment, did you expect Khabib to say "Wait for me outside guys, I will have a conversation with this gentleman" ?

He was with his team when he fell upon Artem, can't blame him for that. And like another user said, they were more holding him back than giving mean look at poor Artem.
 
Yes artem. Conors knee was SO bad that the athletic commission let him fight. Cause you know they always do that..

so he should have been comforted by their presence?

fighter or no, dude was outnumbered. If he took a swing you think Khabib's people were going to watch? Or even more unlikely, if he bested Khabib do you think they'd high five him?

c'mon now. Think.
 


Really? Here is a different angle, watch from 15 second.


ah i see. from the original video it looked like he just pushed his head away. this is an outrage. he ows artem one of his big yellow hats

Well Khabib had no problem to trashtalk to Conor, even when Conor was with his friends.

 
hardly the point.

That's the whole point.

Artem been talking smack. Said that he would b!tchslap Khabib if he saw him. He shit his pants and took back everything he said when Khabib confronted him. Your point is that anyone would be scared in his shoes. Khabib told Conor exactly what he thought of him to his face when Conor was with his entourage.
 
In the vid I didn't saw 20 vs 1 people. As a matter of fact, Khabib's people where behind and didn't took part in the "tough discussion" Khabib had. Don't act like his team where surrouding Artem and insulting him, pushing him, etc. Artem was confront by Khabib and didn't have the guts to tell what he says to a reporter.

<WellThere>


I get that they use social media to build heat for either upcoming fights or potential fights. Apparently they're little boys too and get serious at times. Um, grow the fuck up. Accept that you get to be violent for a living and find some solace in that.

How close do you think his people should have been for Artem to be intimidated?

Khabib talking to Conor when whoever was there has nothing at all to do with Artem. Whether he should be intimidated or not is ridiculous to argue.
 
thanks for the translation still dont know why conor would fly in from ireland with a bunch of his goons just to defend artems honor.
