The whole point of going on Ariel's show is to promote yourself. It's free promotion
Since when does Dana do interviews?
Oh re-friggin-lax!Nice to see that mods are cool with antisemitism.
You don't find John Morgan to be a hard hitter with journalistic integrity and a nose for seeking out the truth?Paddy is sincere and very smart, but a lot of fighters like Ariel. I disagree with some of the things Ariel says, but so what. I think he has integrity, and he's brave enough to not be a UFC sycophant like most UFC "journalists".
He's above average, but he's always on his best behavior. He doesn't stir the pot nearly as much as Ariel. He doesn't want to lose that press conference credential.You don't find John Morgan to be a hard hitter with journalistic integrity and a nose for seeking out the truth?
I don't really like or dislike Ariel but this is very strange from Paddy. Ariel has been his #1 fan and has hyped the shit out of him for as long as I can remember. He absolutely loves (or loved) the Paddy/Molly duo. This is even after the whole refusing to go on his show thing. Thinking about it, I've never heard Ariel say a bad word about Paddy.
Just realized this is a recent vid holy shit. I thought this was some resurfaced vid. Paddy has a fight in a few days and he has Dana White on his podcast... Yeah they're gonna give him softball matchups for the rest of his career. Shit they might try giving him a title shot off beating Clay Guida or Jim Miller <Lmaoo>
Yeah -- I'm not "anti Helwani", but miss me with that "I'm a gangster because I talk about shit on my platform" bollocks. Ariel can be well spoken and make solid points in my opinion and do it damn well at his best, but I do feel he makes things a bit much about himself sometimes. I certainly feel he has a proper reason to defend himself with these words, but holy fuck man get 2Pac out of your fucking post dude this ain't it.That's pretty cringeworthy, he's a giant dork, he's not ethering anyone he's just bitching on his YouTube show to his audience of neckbeards.
For real -- I think there are some valid reasons to perhaps have a level of mild disdain for Ariel, but a lot of credibility is lost in my opinion (even if it's meant to be used as an exaggeration) when you call a fucking journalist the slimiest person ever. Like, holy shit man he isn't a fucking murderer. At worst, he's somewhat of a shady interviewer with a job to do.Calling Helwani one of the worst slimiest people ever? Really? Like ever? You’d think Ariel killed some puppies and kittens while molesting children the way they are talking. Chill out out there fellas.
Yeah -- the premise alone is rather cringey in my opinion.Why the FUCK is Dana doing media interviews with fighters?
