Dagestanis have haters, but their dedication and will power to stay disciplined is their strength

[FreemanWelterweight]

Extremely underrated coach, last year he had Sean dominating Adesanya and Francis almost beating Fury back to back

Am a huge fan of Khabib team n I love Eric, I never miss any interviews of him whenever he pops up. Very level headed n interesting personality.

[theuntraceable]

Thank you so much for uploading this
When it's Khabib we know it's a serious business

[NotUrDJ]

Someone should give dawah to Eric. He seems like a genuine one

[milky_dromeda]

Always love listening to this coach. Level headed takes and good insights into techniques. One of the realest coaches out there.

This dude is a Great Interviewer, I just listened to his last 3 interviews. I clicked subscribe as soon as I realized it was him, this is the dude from full reptile who asked McGregor such a insightful question he got emotional

[nanodynamics]

One of realest guys in the mma industry

[LordHelmet]

This channel is really good! Thank you

[Cenyon]

Love listening to Nicksick talk fights and fighters, great upload. I also agree that Kape should have won against Mokaev if the ref had done the point deduction.

[mounirdaoud]

this is probably the best coach in the game, hopefully he gets the chance to work with some of the upcoming champs

[latherrinserepeat]

Coach Nicksick speaks, and you just hear why he is the coach he is. You just hear that mind of his. He understands this game more than others that have been in it longer.

[tomydurazno]

This guy is one of the top MMA coaches right now

[Sal-uycq]

Pretty sure the random guy that Belal brought to Khabib's class was Ignacio.

[Vulture]

Insightful questions and great answers good work

[b.f.skinner]

Awesome questions, keep up the good work

[Islander]

I started following UFC because of Team Khabib

[mysticmac]

This man is the best coach in MMA today.

With that, Eric’s a great coach who takes care of a lot of guys. Just make sure you stay a coach and don’t become a misguided promoter speaking outta ur ass to talk up your guys. With all due respect
