Joe Rogan recently weighed in on Khabib Nurmagomedov and Islam Makhachev's "gruelling training sessions" ahead of their fights. Talking to legendary outdoorsman Cameron Hanes, the UFC commentator praised the regime of the Dagestani fighters.
'The Eagle' is widely regarded as one of the greats in the sport. Retiring from the UFC as an undefeated champion, Nurmagomedov has only ever lost two rounds in his entire career. His friend and teammate, Makhachev, on the other hand, is esteemed for being the total package in mixed martial arts.
On the latest installation of The Joe Rogan Experience, the standup comedian had this to say:
"Khabib [Nurmagomedov] had unbelievably gruelling training sessions. That was one of the things that was so apparent with his endurance. Their discipline was second to none. No girlfriends, no phones, no bulls***, no video games. F*** you. We train. Eat, recover, train. You wanna really be a champion? This is how you have to work. This is how Islam Makhachev is so good. This is how Khabib is so good. Those guys are disciplined."

Joe Rogan weighs in on potential Islam Makhachev vs. Belal Muhammad fight
With Belal Muhammad making his first title defense against Jack Della Maddalena this weekend, and Islam Makhachev revealing his aspirations regarding a move-up to welterweight, fans are excited to witness what lies in store for the division.
Since Muhammad and Makhachev are training partners, it would be nearly impossible to make that fight happen. Speaking to Ilia Topuria, Joe Rogan reveals talking to Dana White about the fights. He said:
"When I talked to Dana, he was telling me all the issues that they're having and with different fights. But he was actually specifically talking about what happens if Belal wins [at UFC 315]. They've been talking about Islam fighting Belal. I would like that to happen, if Belal wins, but that's an if. The problem with Islam fighting Belal is that they train together and I think they should fight. Yeah, they should fight."
