Never see any of his shit anymore so don’t care what happens to him, but I was astounded he got a pass on likening his ban by Dana to the treatment Jews got during WW II.
It was one of the scummiest things I’ve ever heard by a media ho. And no one said shit about it.
Yeah man right at a pivotal point with the UFC being sold and going really mainstream he just fucked himself out of it. If I want to be theee MMA guy, I’m being best buds with Dana, you just have to
Do you remember, before Ariel, the main guy was Steve Cofield. He did all interviews from around 2007-2010. Dana banned him for some reason too. Cofield went back to mainstream sports radio.
Actually it was Cofield who gave Ariel an early break. He had him on as a guest to his ‘Hardcore MMA show’, as he referred to it.
Ariel, like a Cuckoo, nudged his way in and took Cofield’s spot. lol
I’m a fan of DC but never liked Ariel. I especially hate when he thinks he can talk shit to fighters. Your a reporter nerd, and a half ass one at that. Stay in your lane.
Some of you guys show your complete lack of biz knowledge of the media industry. No matter what Ariel decides to do, he’s gonna make 7 figures. Either ESPN pays him or he can do it in his own. He drives so much traffic to ESPN+ that ESPN would be stupid not to keep him. He not only covers MMA but also other personalities on the network love him and he is well liked from the guys who run the NBA side of things. Guys getting paid and i laugh at all you jealous haters.
Well the other one who was banned early was Josh Gross, for leaking the results of an early Ultimate Fighter. I think the Comeback season, if I remember rightly.
Not sure of Loretta Hunt actually got banned, but she took a hell of a beating anyway lol!
So Josh Gross, Loretta, Ariel, Steve Cofield.
Remember the other early guys, whatever happened to Mike Straka? Dave Farra? Larry Pepe? Maggie Hendricks?
Damn, you nailed it with this post, ESPECIALLY the foreign guy who is ALWAYS there to ask some fucking retarded, inane, awkward question that makes no sense whatsoever. It happens EVERY TIME.
Yeah he leaked the finalists for TUF season 4 “the comeback”
I accidentally clicked on the spoiler on here but I scrolled past the names very quickly and basically avoided the internet that entire season. TUF 4 was awesome.
