Is Ariel Helwani the face of Boxing now?

[Rhood]

I never expected him to be interviewing boxers right after matches.
Looks and sounds out of place IMO

Helwani seems pretty good in there. I wouldn't mind seeing him fill that roll for the UFc.

 

[pick999]

why not

Ariel is a hard working professional who built a lot of MMA journalism. It makes sense he can have this kind of gig in a cross-over match. I doubt we'll see him in events that don't feature MMA stars, but who knows.

 

[Jeff Goldblum69]

Yep ..

I think he fits well into the post fight ring interviews. Asking good questions and definitely wants to help set up the fighters with callouts.

I don't see how he doesn't fit

Ariel > boxing > MMA > Ultimate Circus

 

[El Fernas]

He's doing alright, the thing is, he doesnt cover boxing on his show...not a fan of him.

All of the ring girls look like they have taken a ton of D.

MMA fans shit on Ariel but hes one of the only people in the sport who raise it up.

I know he gets a lot of haters here, but dude is really the GOAT of MMA journalism. ESPN needed him more than he needed them, and it's starting to show real quick.

Ariel Nose best.

 

[SmilinDesperado]

Gotta respect the hustle post getting dishespected by ESPN.
He gets himself in the middle of one of the fight events of the year a scant few weeks later.

 

[Coolkid666]

Doesn't seem out of place at all. Interviewing fighters.

It's kind of his thing...

 

[WHITE ANDERSON]

why the fuck is ariel there
i thought luke thomas and brandon schaub were the guys who worked for showtime

 

[DebtCollectorMMA]

Just the nose of the face

 

[boxasmash]

Ariel will be Dana's boss soon
