Media Ariel Vs. Schaub Mega Thread

The only thing I got out of that rant was that Bloody Elbow is owned by VOX and that explains a lot lmao
 
This "feud" have WWF written all over it, let's not forget the weasel is a big wrestling fangirl.
 
Fake beef? Brendan's podcast has half the views it used to have ever since Callen got MeToo'd even after he came back.
 
I don't know, but I promise whatever did happen he exaggerated the shit out of. All those comedians on podcasts either exaggerate the shit out of their stories, or straight up make them up
Its normal for comedians to exaggerate their stories when doing comedy. Promising that he exaggerated a serious incident is pure ignorance.
 
The mistake Ariel makes is the same reason he priced himself out of ESPN.

He tries to validate his own projected weight far too much. He's like the Forrest Griffin of MMA media. He made it far beyond his natural abilities should allow because he's a hard worker and made it big partly because talent was low and partly because of good fortune. And that's not a shot at Ariel or Griffin. Ariel worked his way to the face of independent MMA journalism since the beginning, which is huge, but 'independent MMA' is about his limit. Showtime and ESPN dumped him as soon as they could, and even if it was primarily Dana, it doesn't matter. He's back to his Youtube platform and that's good enough.

But this 10th 'final rebuttal' against his enemies in Schaub and Rogan is so self-destructive it's got to be ironic at this point. He spends 20 minutes every week talking about how fake and irrelevant Shaub is compared to him and that he needs to fire back. If Schaub is that irrelevant (and for the most part he is) then stop going on these tirades because he is only drawing attention to Schaub's criticisms when most people weren't even looking. He just spent half an episode retaliating in a rant so deep you would think Schaub fucked his wife or something.

I think pricing himself out of the ESPN deal has made him jaded. Attacking everyone and defending himself isn't going to work, because the people who listen to him don't really give a shit anyway, and the only thing you are doing is inviting people who don't know to go listen to Schaub to see what the beef is about.

Ariel ripping Schaub is getting Ariel views and more fans... because most people know Schaub is a POS and finally someone is willing to call him out. Ariel is gonna make more $ now than the shitty ESPN reoffer so who cares.

Pure ignorance lol... I followed all these guys a lot as a teenager. Trust me, they are all full of shit.
 
What "material" is there even to steal when discussing fighting? It's not like anyone is making any revelations, it's all mostly like: "Yeah this dudes got power but that dudes got good jiu jitsu so I think if he can take him down he has a shot at winning" type gobbledygook. There really isn't much to talk about when it comes to MMA or boxing, or sports in general really. All of it is just filler garbage specifically made to try to keep you interested as long as possible while saying nothing.
 
Even when I used to like Schaub I knew he was stealing his takes from Luke, it was so obvious.

Shaub Has the most generic takes. There’s no reason to listen to him at all. It’s like getting breaking news from Snapchat.

 
Areil is a hypocrite and weird going off. But brendan is worse than him riding coattails
