>> The faceoff between Justin and him look really good.
I mean he very calm, very relaxed.
The key about everything, man, relaxation.
Like father always say "Relax, relax, relax."
Those three words-- you still have to make a t-shirt
in his honor.
It'd be a big honor, I think, for him,
just that, "Relax relax, relax," yeah.
>> You a beginner.
>> Yeah, I was a beginner, yeah.
You know how to fight.
You know when to fight.
So we're going to use that, right.
And then when he gives us what we need,
we're going to take it and that's it.
I do that with all my fighters.
I'd pick pinpoints of what I'm going to say
about the relaxation and how the opponent is
and what they're all about
and you talk good about the opponent
because you don't wanna talk bad about the opponent.
Because they're tracking to be
one of the biggest fight ever, you know,
and you didn't need to talk trash, none of you guys.
Because if you don't respect your opponent
then how are you going to be able to beat
someone that's great as Justin?
[water splashing]
>> Let's get to it.
And let's go find some things.
>> I just started playing Don't Stop.
It's like a 2d survival game.
It's fun, it's keeping me occupied.
>> --and start destroying their lovely homes
like the monster you are.
>> Robert: Today is the day of the cut
so just just cruising, play some video games.
I'm just chillin'.
I use it as a distraction, as an escape,
as enjoyment, as social,
because I play with a lot of my friends.
I don't know, it's a big part of who I am.
>> You will certainly have the grounds--
>> Robert: The weight's on point.
I can't wait until tomorrow morning.
Looking forward to the weigh-in tomorrow.
Looking forward to getting good food.
>> As always, just take his house.
>> Robert: Everyone's gonna go out there.
We're gonna do our best.
We wanna get to work, do our job.
>> Wherever you find 'em, always keep smashing--

>> Khabib: Feeling good.
Feels like I'm cutting weight.
20--
22 hours before weigh-in.
[chatter]
>> So Thursday, it's the last day of training
and the weight-cut.
So this the morning training.
We're going to finish this one,
do one at night, and the last one,
5, 6 in the morning before the weigh-ins.
We're here-- everybody here,
all the guys here, you know..
We move like a team.
You know, to give some positive energy
and we're always like this.
It's not just a team, it's a family.
Family; Let's support each other
that giving each other good family and motivation.
>> This is Khabib day, as you can tell.
Worldwide, they're closing the malls.
>> It's national.
>> National?
Oh this is world.
You're talking national.
This is world-- world-- the world's closing down.

>> You've been in the Middle East before?
>> Yeah, I went to Iraq.
Yeah.
>> So, when you went to Iraq, you had to fix stuff.
>> It was air traffic control equipment repair.
>> Oh.
>> So, it was cool.
Thankfully, I didn't have any kids at that time,
so it was just me and Kat,
and Kat was back at home, like, working.
Doing her thing.
>> I always say the weight's not gonna cut itself.
[laughing]
>> I love having multiple teammates on the card,
because at the MMA Lab, we're all about the team.
We're all about caring about each other,
helping each other live each other's dreams.
>> Come for three.
[thudding]
>> Casey Kenny's 135 pounds.
He's helping Jared Cannonier live his dreams
in the practice room.
He gives him good looks.
He gives him good work,
and Jared helps Casey Kenny.
The more people that can come from the gym,
it brings that same vibe to fight week.

>> Set amount of time, Jared?
>> Uh, 15.
>> We counted the record for it.
We're like almost 70% of winning percentage
of when we have more than one guy
on the card at a time.
With my guys, I don't mind bragging.
I don't mind saying, "Oh, yeah.
Jared's gonna knock the guy out."
I think Jared gets the knockout.
>> I think we should start a new thing.
I don't know the guy takes a shoe
and drinks a beer out of it.
Dude, we can have, like, koozies
and just drink real beer out of it.
>> Can you start today again.
>> You start it.
>> He's hurting, dude.
He don't wanna jab with me.
I'm a heavyweight now.
He don't wanna jab with me.
It's Lou-jitsu, dog.
>> Lou-jitsu.
[laughing]
>> Ooh my God, watch the freakin thing.
>> Is he getting tired yet?
[farting noises]
[bleep]
That's a noise we've never heard.
Mother Russia is coming.
That's what it's gonna feel like.

>> Justin: My senior year-- and I don't know, junior year,
Nationals are three days, on the third day,
I was, you know, a little bit over,
and all I had was my underwear really wet.
And he's like, gonna put mine on.
I was like, "What?"
Yeah, he was in a suit.
>> I had to freeball in a suit all day.
>> It felt so good though.
>> Well, yeah, you were two tents over
and had your underwear on,
and you had to weigh-in with underwear on.
So it was like that was our only option.
And then he asked if I wanted them back.
[laughing]
>> Let's do it.
Here.
To me, mindset's everything in this fight.
And our last two cuts have been spectacular.
So, I'm really excited to see
how this really helps him in the fight.
Double jab.
Again, it's mentality.
Some people come to the fight
and they look for things to bitch about.
One thing about Justin is he's a true professional.
And when you know you have an opportunity like this,
all you can do is be grateful
and know that you trained
and that's just confidence in what he's doing
and what he's been doing.
Four.
And take a break.
And weight cuts break anybody.
When it comes down to to the mental part of fighting,
there's no one as mentally tough as him.
