Ariel is literally running MMA since he’s gone independent. He really showed his how much his true potential was hidden whilst at ESPN. He’s made more noise in a week being independent than he has a full year at ESPN and that’s just facts. He runs the MMA hour, interviewing tonnes of fighters, interviewing entertainment figures such as WWE Stars and Jeremy Piven, then was commentating and interviewing at a Showtime event. If the big wigs at ESPN wanted him to fail so badly they should of kept him, if they kept him he’d be still doing a fraction of what he’s capable of and not revealing his full potential, whoever was pushing to get him out played the wrong move. Since he’s gone independent he’s stole ESPNs viewers, is making 20 times more of a splash and its branching out everywhere. Bad move on their parts. What a checkmate. Always bet on yourself. Cheers Helwani.
@@RealDealSoulja it might be funnier but we’re not tuning in for funny. We’re tuning in for the special connection Ariel has with the fighters, how comfortable they are to open up to him, how they trust him, how he’s genuinely curious about everything, and how he always asks the questions we want to hear.
I’m in love with the HEEEEL-wani era best part of this episode for me is Ariel going off on Brendan and Joe and I’m actually a fan of all parties but I gotta side with my by boy Helwani here
I skipped turcio, he was killing my brain cells with the constant "you know" "you know what I'm saying" "you know what I mean" it's obnoxious to speak this way, I didn't have to drink alcohol to kill my brain cells and ears, the guy needs a publicist
Sidenote; I saw Bisping along time ago when I was skatin at rvca and I had no idea who he was(before I followed mma) so I didn’t say anything to him. And now I wish I had at least said what’s good to him smh
Chito is a hidden gem. Hope he wins all his fights. Aljo.....man tough to like him but this rematch should correct the BW division again with Petr as the champ. Gotta see him and TJ fight some day.
I met him at a Target a year ago and he was so chill! Even with me fan boying out😂. If Chito sees this (doubtful), I'm sorry I interrupted your shopping and phone call🙈
It’s so obvious how terrified Aljo is of the rematch, he knows he’s gonna lose. 9/10 fighters would do the rematch right away and him trying to justify any reason to avoid the fight is just sad.
Aljo sticking with being impossible to like. He’s a bad actor and he won’t defend the belt once. That’s the reality. Also, he’s whining about how he should be able to get surgery and take off until December after winning from a disqualification, but Francis gets shelved for an interim belt after a few months?! Ariel didn’t have the balls to call Aljo out for saying he was not losing that fight and for bringing up his meal. Only going to make him look worse when he loses.
Why do black fighters (no disrespect) always make excuses. Deontay wilder, tyron, aljermain all have 100 reasons why they didnt win. They never want to admit they lost
Yeah he just needs to fight soon and win or lose he can get this chapter behind him, would be hard to handle a situation like that if it happened to anyone, winning the belt after a DQ there'll always be haters that come with it
I’m sorry aljo. Lost me as a fan . It’s crazy to see a “fighter” run away from another man because he knows the min he steps foot in that cage it’s over no more title . Just suck it up and fight bro . You really stalled just to hold the belt for as long as you could ….
@@stonecold316339 he's a draw, eeeeveryone wants to see Yan kick his ass lol. He's gotta build that up, enjoy those ppv points because that's the end of his appeal after that fight 🤣
Disagree, he seems like someone who's insecure and projecting self confusion. I skipped turcio after 5 mins, he was killing my brain cells with the constant "you know" "you know what I'm saying" "you know what I mean" it's obnoxious and condescending to speak this way and sounds fake, like he's trying to play a character, the character of a street thug or an inmate. I don't understand what you're seeing, genuine? I'm seeing the opposite
@@nerddorkdiaries2351 naw dudes is genuine and fucken awesome you’re just being a little bitchy Karen cuz he kept saying a “you know what I’m saying”. Not everyone is going to talk to your standards snowflake.
I do believe Aljamain is the champ, but the food scheduling thing aiding to his loss is almost as bad as Paulo Costa's winegate excuse. Like ok you didn't space your meals well due to a different fight time, but that's still your mistake, not something that was outside of your control like a torn ligament or a medical condition...
If you believe Sterling is the champ....then you may as well believe in father Christmas and the easter bunny. Totally agree with your winegate reference and meal plan excuses, very weak, unbelievable and sad.
Yeah, but he never tried to excuse himself. He's explaining what the day was like because of COVID. The food story is not that unheard of in the UFC. Fighters pretty much wait in a huddle until they are called into a fight. You see it all the time on Embedded, how the UFC feeds each fighter. So, he story sounds pretty much.....like the truth.
As always...BRILLIANT!!! Love this show. The weasels out there are FINALLY being called out for who they really are... The Brendans, the Rogans, and the rest. Keep it up Ariel. As always, one of the very greats in this sport.
Ariel, here is the US, "On the Nose" is figurative for: Precisely accurate; exactly right. Example: "Her predictions about the company's collapse were right on the nose". I don't think your subscriber intended to use it in place of 'on the record' :-) Therefore, it would be a great name because you are usually on the nose with your thoughts and feeling about the fighters and the sport
Chito and Masvidal are hands down my favorite fighters in this era. I appreciate their style, how real they are, their work ethic, and representing for the Latinos!
I love Ariel defending himself and dropping the F bomb!! Much respect Ariel. I apologize for believing Joe Rogan and Braindumb Schlobs version of what happened. Congrats on the promotion to CEO of PF Changs! Sorry BC you answer to Ariel now
01:55:58 I've been a fan of Ariel since the beginning and he's always maintained a air of professionalism, no matter what. I'm glad he finally snaps here. I think this was very much needed to get his point across, unfortunately, and it sucks that he has to go to such lengths to make his case. GETEM Helwani.
Crazy proud of Ariel for sticking up for himself. He torched them dudes and you could feel every word he's said. He's been holding that in for a while.
aljo is so disingenuous. Started by attacking ariel on weak grounds just because he was wrong to parade the belt after a losing fight. Aljo gonna lose to Yan next time and Yan gonna KO aljo for sure.
I would watch weighing in podcast to get my MMA news and BYM as soon as they dropped. Well since The MMA hour began again all my times goes to this podcast, still love BYM and watch that after I watch these episodes. But Wow, this podcast is the BEST. Loved Dc and Helwani but HEELWANI is a force to be messed with, the king. 👑
This guy gets me exhausted just listening to him....." you know what I'm saying. " I like kid though, tough fighter. His energy is needed right now, I'm rootin for him.
True story: The $10 Amazon Karaoke machine that Ricky brought out at the post fight had a better sound quality than the $100k UFC AV set up with their wretched hot mics, static, and electrical shorts they are notorious for at those pressers lol 😂

I’m really liking everything about this Ricky Hadouken fella, I already followed on the socials. Looking forward to his future.
I love Ricky. He is so genuine and clearly a good soul. Appreciate the lights we have in this scene!
Ariel took over Aljos interview 😂 That rant was great! Stick up for yourself Ariel, I always wanted to know the truth about that story tbf...
Ariel sending for Brendan. He's not playing. ESPN unleashed a monster
It's hard to watch Aljo. Everything in me wants to like the guy and I thought this would be the chance to do so... but that wasn't it chief.
Yeah he just needs to fight soon and win or lose he can get this chapter behind him, would be hard to handle a situation like that if it happened to anyone, winning the belt after a DQ there'll always be haters that come with it
He won fair. You don't like him because Peter no brain Yan lost. That's the only reason
Ricky "Hadouken" Turcios is a star⭐ - great fighter, great person, inspiring message. Go Pretty Ricky!!
So cringe
Idk man he doesn’t seem to have the gas tank or power. Personally if you ask me, he’s going to run into a real threat and lose real soon.
I hope Raging Al gets the title someday he’s awesome
Lol you hoped for nothing!
Never will lmao
Not in this lifetime lol
He’s got the title to several houses
It's crazy how you could be so proud of someone you don't personally know.

I didn’t see him run. You just don’t like him based on your previous comments. If it was just about fighting why did Aldo get the fight against Yan?

How can aljo say "I beat him 9 out of 10 times" he got ragdolled in his best practice. So many excuses
