Just bring back Ariel ffs

[muaytao]

The fans love him, the fighters love him etc. He is part of the sport until he retires or die. Fucken fox. just give him a warning next time you dumb asses. that is all.

 

[sirmorbach]

Dana loves him too. Haha.

 

[Air Lats]

Yeah, this whole Ariel thing is kind of crazy.

In before ... BUT BUT HE BROKE DA RULEZ!!!

Fox's loss. I listen to MMA Hour and the Beat every week.

I prefer it this way, Ariel can get back to his shit-stirring best..... thats when he's the most entertaining. Its like he is embracing the dark side lol

 

[Diggem]

I cant stand Helwani and I am glad he is gone.

 

[nanika]

i love the look on his face when the person he is interviewing says something stupid or absurd.

Honestly I feel Ariel is more legit this way.

 

[Cry0Therapy737]

He hasn't really gone anywhere, he still attends events, press conferences/media days, and posts his interviews, he just doesn't break news on UFC Tonight or do the weigh in/post fight interviews, anyone could do that, his stuff on MMAFighting is far more in depth.

Besides this Ariel is awesome.

 

[Darwinambrosius]

He's better off without UFC restrictions. Plus we have olivi now.

 

[mbach4307]

I think the fighters tolerate him and use him to plug their stuff. Funny how that works. He's good but he's all about the drama. And he's really been into being the star of the show.

 

[Bewareofdawg]

The Fertittas are currently having Ariel buried in the desert after the stunt he pulled today at the presser lol

He pushed Dana a little too far with that last question. I loved it lol

 

[RafaelDosSantos]

I can see Ariel as UFC president

his replacements so far are pretty lame.

yeah, and the fact he doesnt do that leaves him free to do more MMAFighting stuff. so interviews that last longer than a minute, its a win win for fans imo

 

[HI SCOTT NEWMAN]

Helwani was owning Dana today. I loved it

Ultimately Fox decided that they had no interest in MMA journalism but just pleasing the UFC. The crazy thing is that Dana still doesn't understand how much money Ariel Helwani has made him. He doesn't understand that good journalism only increases the interest in the sport. Dana doesn't always need to be the one announcing the fights. Leaks of information are excellent and only build anticipation for upcoming cards.

he wont get those fox paychecks though...

 

[Blayt7hh]

I never really understood why some of you have strong feelings about it

 

[Me&MrJones]

Glad he's back to being a guy asking questions like a real journalist does. He shouldn't be part of UFC Tonight they've Heidi Androl for that stupid shit.
