@UC6QlZwhtmg5nAoO4XPk1A0w that’s what I was thinking aswell. Cutting more weight ain’t helping at all. I’m thinking he should move up to heavyweight see if that helps
@@miderv2698 false. The reason why Cody has been chinny as of recent is because at bantam weight he was fighting people bigger than him on fight night, and MUCH harder hitters at bantamweight. Cody has a chin, bantam weight is just full of KO artists. Prove me wrong.
@@furhadnasserjah123 bro you don’t see Aldo making that excuse. Fought everyone bigger or not and still defended is title several time went down and still found success. Cody lost his chin fighting stupid. He could of won the fight against Pedro.
Thanks Mr Helwani for believing in Pena that she can beat Amanda , I still remember your interview with her , you were one of the reason she got the title shot, cause you give her the platform to express her feelings.
Born and raised in the USA. What is it about denying ones americanism if they have an inkling of blood from another country? Why do Americans deny the country that has given them so much and represent and claim countries that have done zero for them, whose families have migrated from. I get it, America bad, everywhere else good.
how do you people come to this conclusion after amanda had dominated pena in the first round 😂 u guys are stupid amanda lost but she will be back. U guys must’ve forgot
300k on a -1000 when fight not going distance was -400. Nunez by stoppage was -350, but fight under 4.5 rounds was -334! Yes its the "gwoat" but she has been broken before, and Pena isn't super defensively responsible. How many times does the fight go the distance? At less than half the price, its an easy choice. If you've got 300k, you're better than that. Be safe broskis.
Julianna is a class act. The first mom champ and just like Ariel, nothing against Amanda because for sure she's a mom, but she ain't had no babies, and that definitely has an effect on a woman's body. Don't worry about the gay mafia because the rest of the world is hopelessly offended about everything else too. Notice how people actually look for things to be offended about? What a shame. They're missing so much that's good about life because they're too busy being offended about everything.
Yeah, the mom Champ thing I always assumed were in reference to the hug3 physical changes and recovery required to get back to fighting let alone world title level of performance...and yeah, Pena is the only one that has done it
@@AC-wc7ju if ppl weren't so PC and woke your point would be totally correct. Everyone is just blind to semantics. Serena Williams won grand slams during and post her pregnancy. Now thats a mom champ 🏆
He needs to fight Askarov. Askar beat Pantoja is the rightful number one contender. No way Kai deserves a title shot over him. Guy has never beat a top 5 guy either.
@@joetheschmo-wv6ws I wouldn't be mad at that but no way anyone should be ducking Askarov. I just don't think Dana is going to give him a title shot yet though. He needs to start promoting him.
Met Kai at tiger muay thai when he had already lost on the ultimate fighter spoke to him and wished him well and said I'm sure you will get signed to the UFC one day. I think about a year later he got signed , now look where he is. Great guy would be so happy if he became champion.
I keep hearing people talk about omg wow glover is champ olives is champ that should give dustin hope or thompson hope etc but always seem to forget about michael bisping.
How can anyone not love Juliana pena after the weekend. I didn’t know much about her before the weekend, what a beautiful person she comes across I hope she gets a massive payday for the next nunes fight she deserves it. Her face brought a smile to my face when she came on the screen before the interview started, great interview Ariel
She's definitely delusional and it makes her pretty unlikeable. Talking about Amanda Nunes ducking her when she's 2-2 and just got choked out by a kickboxer, and the "We worked on that choke, don't need hooks or anything" when anyone with eyes saw she had 0 leverage for any kind of neck crank. It's ok to just be humble sometimes.
@@furhadnasserjah123 1st fight she was fast hard to fight nunes. 2nd fight was seriously close, majority of mma media had val get the W. Since then she has demolished everyone she has faced basically. What are you talking about she hasn’t ”deserved” it. She has done everything she possibly can.
There are next to no heavyweight women in the “arts”. Weightlifters and some sumo perhaps. You’d end up with sloppy sock ‘em rock ‘‘em kinna situation.
Truly don't understand how ppls hate on Ariel, at this point I have to believe it's all for show. These interviews are amazing, authentic and down right necessary.
He wasn't fighting like he used to though, he runs away for a reason and it doesn't suit him or work well for him, he can't take a shot anymore, he is not the same fighter.
Ali’s “what’s my name?” fight wasn’t against Sonny Liston. It was the Ernie Terrell fight. Kara-France claiming to be a fight historian and relating to Ali in the Ernie Terrell fight but getting his fight history wrong.
I love your show ariel I'm just a normal guy that works hard an follows sports and I've been wanting to start my own little thing on youtube just talking sports and see where it goes I've been hesitant to start tho because I'm just a nobody that's passionate about sports and I'm not sure if the hard work of doing it would pay off but i really want to start but ive been procrastinating does anybody in the thread have any advice
Saw the same thing yet commentary both was stating how great he looked on the interviews and weigh ins lol... Dude was legit forgetting words and not completing sentences
No idea why anyone would bet Pena by TKO. My friend, who I told I was betting Pena, asked about Pena by TKO and I told him that was a stupid because if you watch Pena's wins, when she pushes the pace and breaks her opponents, she always goes the sub to get them outta there, not TKO. Go watch her fights vs Shayna Bayszler, Sara McMann, etc. She's a gas you out and sub you type of fighter/finisher, not TKO'er.
What is ariel talking about the last time Dillon Danis was on his show was 2 years ago lol try like 2 months ago you just literally had him on talking about him being choked by that security guy and how his leg is messed how can you just blatantly lie like that
Stephen Thompson 17:33, Kai Kara-France 44:53, Darren Till 1:46:40, Tyron Woodley 2:20:43, Dominick Cruz 2:42:04, Julianna Peña 3:10:40.

And came up with a BUNCH of new excuses on how he lost.

1:46:30 for Darren Till
I’ve seen all the Ariel/Till interviews. They should make a compilation once his career is over: They’re all gems.
How can you not love WONDERBOY 💯🦸 the nicest guy in sports and great fighter 👏 too.
Dom's musings resonate with me. I appreciate the effort he invests in growing as a person.
I want whatever Dominick Cruz is smoking
The whole show was amazing, God bless keep it up🔥
Thanks Mr Helwani for believing in Pena that she can beat Amanda , I still remember your interview with her , you were one of the reason she got the title shot, cause you give her the platform to express her feelings.
I would love to see Wonderboy win a UFC Championship this time next year!
As long as he keeps dancing without throwing something he will never win it.
I always skip his matches because of his style.
Love the Kill Bill thumbnail 😄

Dominick Cruz is the man
Top show Ariel 💪
Jaguar Pena beat that Lioness in every aspect of MMA. And dominated.
Pena had alot more heart regardless but she lost that first round imo.
Dominated what? Take nothing away but there was no domination.
how do you people come to this conclusion after amanda had dominated pena in the first round 😂 u guys are stupid amanda lost but she will be back. U guys must’ve forgot
Can

Darren till is the best interview. No posturing, not the same boring stock answers. Real talk from the heart. I'm here for it every time.
Was rooting hard for the Dominator and Juliana. Never write a warrior off💪🙏
Great lineup Ariel. The best as always 👍🗓

I feelya but he's not as sharp and eloquent as he pretends to be lol
He is though. He's a brilliant talker and has a thoughtful outlook on life
I hope to god in the inevitable book or in his instructionals he’ll go into detail about how he developed his style

Cody's son is named Kai if I am not mistaken. That is why he called Kai steve.
the live chat should be turned off. its a damn cess pool
I bet $50 on Pena to win. Payout was $360. After watching the press conference, I was sold.
Kai needs to fight askar or pantoja no way he skips those guys
He needs to fight Askarov. Askar beat Pantoja is the rightful number one contender. No way Kai deserves a title shot over him. Guy has never beat a top 5 guy either.

Shame weidman didn't do it, 5 kos in a row against the top 5? Had he taken a few paces back I think he would still be up there
What I look forward to most after work
would like to see GC's actually portfolio, see if he is over 50% win ratio
Well said dom.. Respect.
any replay of pre-lim fights
Dominic Cruz stops talking @3:07:40. If you're like me who can't stand listening to him talk.
