UFC lightweight champion Khabib Nurmagomedov has called American Kickboxing Academy in San Jose, Calif., his training home when he’s in the U.S. for a while now, and through the years he’s developed a wonderful friendship with teammate and former UFC champ-champ Daniel Cormier.
That’s evident when the cameras are on Khabib and DC, which usually involves these two baddest dudes nagging each other and arguing about silly stuff. It’s all fun and games, and it’s hilarious to watch every single time.
Thanks to ESPN’s MMA Twitter, here’s a great collection of moments you can check out for a good laugh:

Khabib is set to fight Justin Gaethje in a title unification bout Saturday at UFC 254 in Abu Dhabi, with his buddy DC sitting cageside to commentate, which DC says will be unbiased. But c’mon, these guys are BFFs.
