Does Ariel Helwani even train UFC bro?

[maarten84]

idiots, the gym is called ufc gym. "Does he even train ufc" implies ufc is a sport and we all know its an organisation.

Plenty of journalists cover hockey and footbool but cant skate or are too small to play.
I don't see the difference here. As long as he knows all of the rules, stats, and knows his shit, who cares if he trains or not?

Why does anyone care about Ariel Helwani? I think he is terrible at his job.

People care about Ariel because they've been waiting to hear what your opinion of him is.

Clearly, you don't even train. I'm starting to think you don't even lift.

Do you even know who I am?

Plenty of MMA journalists and commentators end up with a very shallow understanding of MMA, and since the media has a lot of power and influence in terms of creating hype, which ultimately affects the UFC rather directly, I think it's an interesting question.

Footbool?

Hmm...
- Thinks award winning journalist, voted best MMA journalist in the world 3 years in a row is terrible at his job
- Is a huge Radiohead fan.

Hipster alert.

I can see him as someone who only uses the machines but doesn't do free weights. Not everyone cares about being jacked.

 

[maarten84]

I can see him as more of a step-class kind of guy.

Does he train UFC? Tell me please, how do ya do that shit?

 

[Minoki Ichihara]

He either trains UFC or trains basketball

 

[AndrewGolota48]

Ariel vs. John Pollock would be a good Fight Night main event.

 

[djacobox372]

Does bob costas play baseball? Was howard cosell a boxer?

Wtf does it matter?

 

[oknenaileme]

I heard from some people that actually trainned with him that he has a badass Systema thumb touch, aikido pins and great wing chun chain punches.

 

[DrDangles]

He knows enough about the game.

I generally agree when he scores fights, and he seems to have an appreciation for the technical aspects of MMA
