Luke Thomas just got effectively cucked.

Twitter's Ariel feed, which is one small portion of his ESPN viewership, exceeds Luke's current 5000 views on YouTube, the main platform of the show.
 
Woah this is more competitive than the World Cup
 
One show is 6 hours long, the other is only two. So obviously they will have more guests.

Now regarding the quality of guests, yeah, we all knew ariel would steamroll thomas. That was obvious.

But seriously.... twitter?? fuck that.

One does not simply stream video on twitter

Ariel built his show over 9 years - Luke will have caught up in a few months time - they have the format ready to go!
 
Star studded lineup is Ariel's thing. Luke has neither the rapport with fighters and managers, nor the skills to pull off interviewing this many guests every week. His strength is opinionated negativity covered in verbal vomit, and that's what Luke will try to focus on for his show. It's a different vision and if you don't like it you're probably a human barnacle who lives in a van down the river who plays Farmville and gets his Facebook info stolen by Cambridge Analytica.
 
Oh look! A Luke Thomas bash thread!

On Sherdog, no less.
 
Ugh, Schaub? Well that makes it an easy choice.
 
I read that Machida didn't even show up to Luke's show lol. Probably thought Helwani was still the host and bailed when he realized the truth.
 
Luke's wife was telling me all about this last night. Pretty sure Ariel wins

They both suck.
 
Im shocked Luke has guests. I fully expected him to start the show saying he has no guests l.
 
Luke's show just seems like an extension of his own podcast. Which isn't a bad thing, but people's expectations may have to be adjusted.
