Media Pimblett Goes off on Helwani in Interview with Dana White (UPDATE: Helwani Responds).

I like Paddy, and we all know who pays him, but damn, he didn't bother with any foreplay, just started blowing Dana right then and there.
 
I like Paddy, but that doesn't look good for him.
Ariel via TKO?
I hope they chat and figure it out but Dana will then not be happy so Paddy will probably not mend fences anytime soon.

Did you even realise my thread got merged?

So no, no I didn't read the "first" post, much like I didn't read beyond your first line.
No I didn't, my apologies. Your post is still stupid though so it balances out.
 



Top notch irony to be talking about Ariel making money off fighters when he is sitting across the table from Dana White. Maybe Dana can use some of that fighter pay to import more snow this Christmas

If people are paying Paddy for interviews why is it wrong for Paddy to ask Ariel to be compensated to go on his show?
 
He did on air. What else was paddy pissed about?
Paddy makes no mention of that during the rant. What does Ariel specifically say?

Trying to understand what the guy's beef is with a guy who gave him airtime when he was a nobody in cage warriors. Helwani promoted this guy before the ufc ever gave a single fuck about him and this is how he repays him.

Seems like such a loyal dude.......

Frankly, that's a bad look for Paddy. He sounds like a proper twat, and Dana sounds just like Dana.

Because apparently he was the one asking Ariel to interview him.
If he has to cancel because he has a paid media appearance booked at the same time,understandable. But begging for money and then blaming the guy for not waning to pay him is just ridiculous.
 
Honestly Ariel is fine, I don't know why everyone shits on him so much..

Yeah he used to instigate, but it's the prize fighting.. fight promotion.. part of the game..

One of the only journalists who isn't a boot licker.. and he gives a good interview, I like all his adesanya / fury and volkanovski interviews..

I don't like Helwani that much.
To me he's like someone that watches porn for the story and not the sex.
He follows and talks mostly about mma drama rather than fights and styles.


I respect him and think he's important in the mma media landscape. Mma media is full of shills and npcs like Okamoto.
 
lol you cant just throw some random thing about Helwani out,that bugger is too good with his facts and figures.

Like him or not,he knows how to E-hit back hard.

I feel the same, but at the same he is incredibly knowledgeable, so he must follow the sport and just the drama. He can remember obscure undercards fights from 10 years ago, he knows the coaches, managers, and he knows way more fighters than the rest of MMA journos.

He doesn't really talks about the fights themselves, but if you think about it, why talk about the things that people watch? He talks about the rest, about what people don't see when they watch a UFC event.
