I feel sorry for Ariel because he got fired the day MMA was legalized in his hometown

[dragonsfly]

So it must be bittersweat for Ariel and imo the best MMA reporter of all time and probably alot of us are MMA fans because of Ariel Helwani bringing us the goods and kept feeding us.

Ariel is legend reporter and Journalist according to me

That was one of the conditions for getting it legalized in NY.

He was too buddy buddy with the UFC to be considered a legit journalist. This is a good thing for his journalism career.

Who did he get fired by?Fox or mma fighting?

Being a half decent reporter in a shitty field of reporting doesn't make you a legend

Correct--but even then MMA is terrible in comparison

journalism is terrible altogether right now.

 

[Cry0Therapy737]

He still has MMAfighting and Ariel wouldn't be out a job long I've noticed ESPN is talking about the UFC a lot more these days.

 

[Loiosh]

His what now?

 

[RicksonsGrip]

Isnt it a big possibility hes left fox to go work on some NY project for mma?
