"What makes him a TANK": Nabil Khachab walks forward, and Morocco answers
The comments under GLORY's Short come in Arabic, Tamazight, Dutch, Spanish and English, and many ask the same thing: how does he keep going?
Why this story? The video opened at a pace of 115,410 views a day, 21 times a normal first day on this channel (5,424).
Nabil Khachab showing what makes him a TANK 🇲🇦
The title leaves no room for doubt. "Nabil Khachab showing what makes him a TANK" ends with a Moroccan flag, and the comment section picked up the flag at once. Messages arrived in Arabic, in Tamazight written in its own Tifinagh script, in Dutch, in Spanish and in English. Most cheer the fighter. A few simply post a row of flags and flexed arms.
For GLORY, Shorts are usually a modest sideline. This one passed 160,000 views in its first 30 hours, and comments came in about fifteen times faster than on a usual first day.
The viewers say plenty about what the clip shows. Several describe a fighter who walks straight through whatever comes at him, with no reverse gear. One asks how he still has the cardio. Another wants to know the weight difference between the two men. Two Dutch viewers point to the same moment: the opponent beckons him in, and Khachab comes. One commenter calls him "Andy Ruiz from Morocco", after the heavyweight who stunned Anthony Joshua in 2019.
The Short sits among videos with a strong Moroccan thread. GLORY also posted a fight rewind of Tarik Khbabez against Bahram Rajabzadeh, who both fight at COLLISION 10 in Arnhem on December 12. Beside it is a look back at Badr Hari's heated fights with Peter Graham. Of all those uploads, the short clip of a man who would not step back is the one drawing the crowd.

Even without moving a muscle, it's obvious what makes Nabil a tank. Just like with any other tank.

The numbers
A short clip ran far past what GLORY's Shorts usually manage, while the channel as a whole kept close to its normal pace.
💡 Test your knowledge
Andy Ruiz Jr., the heavyweight one viewer compares Khachab to, upset Anthony Joshua in June 2019 at which venue?
Ruiz stopped Joshua in the seventh round at Madison Square Garden in New York on June 1, 2019, and took his world heavyweight titles.
