Helwani makes 500k a year but wants more money.

[Substance Abuse]

Good for him. You guys hate him because he's not a push over. He should be making more.

 

[KGmma]

 

[Atomic 187]

He's a tool

 

[MRT]

Lmao @ the comparison to Woj. Woj actually breaks news, Ariel is a instigator.

Ariel breaking news is a big reason why Dana hates him.

As for Ariel's salary expectations...

 

[tozot]

Is he scared of Ngannou, though?

 

[rstringer]

Good for him. He brings a different dimension to MMA journalism which is gossip and drama based and as much as Dana pretends to hate his guts, he is actually beneficial to promoting their fights due to the color commentary he provides.

 

[rstringer]

He's good at what he does, but 500k is pretty damn good money.

Especially since he is not risking any brain trauma

 

[Mr Wings]

Ariel was breaking tons of news before he became a talking head on ESPN. That crying gif that gets posted is from him breaking the Brock news. His MMA hour show was the main source of MMA news for years.

Yes. Far from him “not breaking any news,” he’s the number one guy known for breaking MMA news, and he is extremely accurate.

 

[Fight Professor]

He definitely has the name recognition to make that money.

 

[r-harper-1]

If you compare him to others journalist covering others sports, it's not that much. It's even pretty low.

Mma fighters make far less then other sports ....but you think an Mma reporter should be on par with other sports

 

[TempleoftheDog]

The question I have is..

who the fuck is Adrian Wojanski? I’m not even kidding.

 

[Streeter]

Should at least 2 mil if not he needs to quit ....... so I can happily take his place for slightly less than 500k

 

[AmericanUppercut]

prefer
mike heck or
john morgan or
okamoto or
chael

 

[Mr Wings]

Especially since he is not risking any brain trauma

Well, maybe occasionally his mouth causes a risk to his brain health.

 

[Tapatio]

He's about 500k overpaid

 

[thehighking]

Ariel getting that Anderson Silva money

 

[Stagliano]

Mma fighters make far less then other sports ....but you think an Mma reporter should be on par with other sports

I have never said that he should be paid more. My point is that those who are surprised to see what he's getting per years shouldn't be that surprised.

 

[Kryptt]

Where is the outrage?

 

[richardjohnson]

The question I have is..

who the fuck is Adrian Wojanski? I’m not even kidding.

He works for ESPN, breaks a lot of the big news from the NBA. I believe he does more than just NBA stuff though.

 

[Altaloma1990]

Idk that sounds light for his name value and prestige of the position. Not saying im a fan of his but what is the market value of that position. If Bret okomoto makes 500k then Ariel should be making more even though I think Bret is way better. 500k is a lot.of money though, he shouldn't walk away unless he has a better offer.

Bret is better then Helwani

Bret sucks
