Dana White 5 min after the incident: “that little bastard Ariel’s gonna have a field day with this.”
Dana 2022 - I'm into this Slap Fighting thing
Dana 2023 - No, I mean I'm REALLY into this slap fighting thing
🤣🤣
Too soon!!!!
@@633globalkingdom-church-pe9 never too soon for comedy
Many jokes and many are defending Dana too lol.
OMG!! This comment needs to go not viral but galactic!!! 🤣
“YOU DON’T BOUNCE BACK FROM PUTTING YOUR HANDS ON A WOMAN.” Dana White 2014.
Most men don't bounce back after getting involved with a woman.
R.I.P Dana Whites Reputation. 🪦
@@iwinguy1195 I'm sure it'll be fine
But,it's ok if a woman puts her hand on a man?And then the man doesn't even have the right to defend himself?
@@kostadinpanov4596 Is there a lot of girls that could beat you up?
This could be one of the most perfect reviews of this entire situation. No one, absolutely no one, is more willing to address the abusive elephant in the room.
“What are your kids going to say about you” WOW. Ariel has been waiting six years for that. Absolute master stroke.
"Are u kidding me? My kids see me slapping my wife everyday! 😅😅😅" - says one popular president of MMA organization
Kinda hypocritical though. "Don't talk about people's families....don't talk about people's kids" then in the next breathe talks about the other guy's🤣🤣🤦🏻♂️
Ariel is such a weasel. I can't stand this grandstanding schmuck
Hypocritical. He platforms Jake Paul, Conor, and Colby. Jake and Colby have brought families and children into trash talk, conor has talked about people's religion, and Jake has been accused of raping multiple women. Yet every time Ariel has them on its all sunshine and rainbows because they give him good exposure and they like him. Its disgusting, if Dana was nice to him, he'd be defending Dana 100%
His kids are already saying: Thanks for the easy life, daddy! You are doing a great job!
How about that, Ariel? :D
For years, Dana has talked smack about real fighters. Mocked them in defeat, questioned their heart, etc. Dana talks tough like he's a fighter -- even said he used to box -- but the only person we've ever seen him hit is his wife.
Who did he mock in defeat ?
@@paleo704 to be honest, too many to count.
Couldn’t have said it better myself! He’s the opposite of a martial artist.
He's the biggest scumbag in combat sports
Well there was also that time he and his goons manhandled Ariel backstage at UFC199.
The ending was brutal, we could say even Paddy got a pass after seeing how Dana went 😂😂 10-8 Ariel
10-7 lol. TKO, no contest 😅
Haha beat me to it. Clean 10-7
That end part was one of the biggest mic drops I’ve ever heard in my life.
legendary
He invited jones after he beat his wife so don’t praise him too much
As an avid MMA fan of almost 20 years it's quite something to witness someone in the MMA world actually willing to hold Dana White accountable for something. About time.
As a casual MMA fan, it's the reason some of us stay away from it. I like pro wrestling but Vince is a bastard of the highest order. I was sick of people pretending Dana wasn't as scummy because of the "legitimacy" of the sport. He always was a slimy business centric hypocrite and it's only til he hits his wife you all treat him with the proper disdaine? That's why the UFC is a joke.
Luke and Brian over at Morning Kombat went hard in the paint too.
They were clearly just practicing for the slap fighting league
Mark Hunt
Despite their personal history, Ariel still took the high road and still Dana White looks like trash. Love this, so awesome.
The poetic way in which Ariel finished this roast brought a tear to my eye, and I'm not ashamed to admit it.
im scared for ariels life. I hope dana doesnt listen the ending.
So perfect
What are your kids gonna say when they hear you teared up like that?
This whole video just shows the hypocrisy and just how wrong the woke ideology he peddles is. No respect for this guy.
@@OzzzyKane Learn that he's a real human being who doesn't suppress like some weird robot 🙃
Ariel you are a hypocrite MMA Guru called you out. You say its so bad what Dana did and then you beg Jon Jones, the man who literally boxed his wife bloody to come on your show to promote his fight? Embarassing
Ariel hold the standard to jon as you do to dana. Platforming "the goat" and giving him room for speaking seems (as well as putting out a personal hit piece) to appear more like a publicity stunt to gain from the problem rather than fixing it.
Man this is a good month for Ariel, well said. Really shows how huge of a role Ariel has played in this sport over the years
Honestly MMA would be worse without him. Brought us many memorable moments
And honestly ufc would still be great even without ariel...
@@taylordorrance7838 I think I would still watch MMA if Ariel wasnt involved, but I certainly wouldnt be as invested as I am. Ariel is without a doubt one of the most important figures in the sport. We wouldnt care for the fighters like we do
She hit him first
@@Grimy_Aaronarr Someone who has never trained serious or fought? Okay. I have gone to the swimming pool, so I guess I'll become a coach for the olympic swim team.
Ariel collected 10-8 rounds on Danis and Dana in the same day. Give this man a contract now 😅
My man’s don’t miss 😂😂
Dana already finished him first round after he made Ariel cry on his channel
*10-7
No he didn’t. Ariel said fair is letting a woman hit you 10+ times and just letting her do it 😂😂
peter griffin alt account . here before this lncel uses 100000 alt accounts to like his own comment
Drop the mic Very proud of you for standing up for what is right. A man of integrity is what your children will see.
He’s a hypocrite. Why did he invite Jon jones if he beat his wife as well?
Ariel, I have the utmost respect for you after this response. Thank you for voicing for the voiceless. This is the definition of someone with a backbone.
💯💯💯
Goddamn, Ariel never fails to speak the truth no matter how brutal it is. Much respect to him
You shouldn't take the Lord's name in vain like that. It's very dangerous to your person.
@@merrillsizemore3163 holyyyyyy💀
Mm some times
Are you a fellow bald patch hat wearer?
The most integer sports journalist to ever air.
This is why Ariel is the 🐐 when it comes to reporting. Fearless, honest and holds values no matter how big the opposition is against him. Thank you for what you do Ariel!
Holds what values? He doesn't have values and this video proves it. Pushes woke ideology and believes in it but when the shoe fits he pushes traditional values. You can't defend woke ideology and this "equality" in which women are just as strong as men and women can do anything a man can and there is no difference between the genders it's all a binary etc. And then say oh no men shouldn't defend themselves against women!
These woke ideologies have real world consequences and people need to understand that!
You have got to be kidding me. Ariel is triple vaxxed. All boosters. Enough said
@@slycat956 yeh he meant to say 🐑 not 🐐😆
@@slycat956 huh?? Enough said? I don't think it was enough. What the hell did you just say?
Dana gonna send a goon after him.
This is a way bigger slap than Dana's wife will ever hit him with.
I lost respect for Dana when he wouldn’t put the belt on Francis and lied about a stomach ache or some type of bs. This latest incident and the slap league, the fighter pay, it’s all a clown show now
Not to mention the dodgy decisions....
Wow! That end part gave me chills!! Absolute poetic justice delivered.. didn’t go over the top and gloat and boast at what has happened but just used his own words he directed at you back at him in the perfect way!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Yeah that was fire. He is holding Dana and the entire sport accountable
Same man, hell of a mic drop
And when Dana bans UFC fighters from going on this show it will kill this show because nobody will watch it when no fighters are on it, then Ariel will cry live once again and wonder what happened lol
@@rbaz9454 Dana has to walk a line with certain things. They are independent contractors and if one too many or the wrong line is crossed he will classify the UFC as employers and they will owe certain taxes and insurance.
@@rbaz9454 you are what makes mma fans....i mean ufc dana shills ,the worst sheep minded fans ever!
Have this same energy when it comes to jon jones and not have him on your show to prove a point and show that you’re really against domestic violence 🤷♂️🤷♂️
Have this same energy by not spamming multiple jokes about domestic abuse Jon cause his fiancé, because judging by how many times fans like you joke about it, you don’t take it seriously either.
Especially if you think that’s legitimately funny.🤷
Never heard of you before but saw a comment supporting your stance and thought I would check it out. Blown away about your assessment of the situation. Extremely eloquent, rational, reasoned piece of journalism. Well done.
😐
He is a top journalist, absolute blessing for the sport
13x mma journalist of the year in a row for a reason bro 👍
JOHN, I'm sure your a fan after this one..Ariel, is a top-notch Ufc journalist!
This is why we’ve followed you and stayed with you all these years, no matter what platform. Another great take from you Ariel.
Worst take ever. He peddles woke ideology and then when it fits wants to push traditional values. He literally got mad at his own creation!
@@lukemurray4950 facts Ariel is a joke
I freaking love you Ariel. You stood up for yourself in the face of outright bullying by Dana White after having done nothing wrong, just reporting the news which is your job. And you do that job extremely well as a true professional (and a mensch too!!!)
The guy literally said he doesn't believe in equality 🤣 he literally equal rights are not equal rights ☠️
"Dana what your kid's are gona say about that " Love you Ariel you are a true journalist and a truth teller
Ariel took the high road and still Dana White looks like trash. Love this, so awesome.
@@lukemurray4950 oh Dana was so threatened by his wife! Had to put her in her place… you the clown f@cko
@@lukemurray4950 Dumb is always entertaining to read, so thank you.
If this was done in public imagine what must be happening behind closed doors! No one is perfect but we are and should be accountable for our actions.
@@ahmadibrahim7652he’s no king lol
She should go to a Mexican jail for attacking him? He defended himself
That was my first thought, but if he's some abusive monster, I don't think his wife would be putting her hands on him.
LETS GO, Ariel! Stay honest, stay true, we need someone like you for MMA. All the best, sir.
Ariel should’ve held Dana’s wife accountable for her actions too, not just Dana. It’s not ok for a woman to smack her husband and vice versa. Most people seem to not care that he was hit.
@julian marx what message does that show to the public then? A woman can hit a man and she doesn’t get any punishment for her actions, that’s not going to end well in the long run.
A “man’s duty” is becoming more and more diluted in these modern times with all the different movements/ agendas going on.
That monologue could legit win academy awards. Holy crap. I wasn't ready for that. His closing was an absolute masterclass delivery. The intensity and conviction behind everything he said pierced me like a thousand daggers. I'm blown away.
By monologue do you mean the whole thing? If it’s a specific part where did it happen? Is it at the end?
The whole thing, but the closing crushed.
He’s the 🐐, just a 30 minute tour de force
The mic drop walk off was a little dramatic but he continues dishing out Ls into the new year
Where are the repercussions for the woman in the situation? You all are looking to hammer Dana, but what about his wife? BOTH should be accountable. Fair is fair. A woman should never hit the father of her children. And of course, the father should never hit the mother of his children. Quit your domestic violence - for BOTH parties.
Especially when a woman hits on the grounds (or expectation) that she can just hit you and get away with it. Women are aware that they will be White Knighted by the likes of Ariel, so they use that as leverage to do whatever they want. She knew the consequences, and she got a fair warning via a slap in return.
That ending was legendary. Nothing but facts
Was getting emotional towards the end of the video then the domestic violence hotline pops up and I burst out laughing. Love how he keep it professional but also got his lick back. Fair Play Ariel.
Dana's wife assaulted him first? She's needs to be in jail for assault.. is that hotline number for dana?
Edit- that's why no one cares about the situation because we all seen in 4k that woman slap dana first...God forbid dana slapped her first his career would be over but since she assaulted him first no one cares to say anything about her pfft
@UChnyqixU6kAsy1Poi8gJKcQ he’s not laughing at domestic violence he’s laughing at the box which came up at the end of the video. And regarding ur comment above yes the wife is wrong for slapping him first but Dana was an idiot for slapping back cause first he was in public and all eyes will be on him and second of all the best option was to walk away.
@@Wolfmann9 Watched the video and he had hold of her wrist and wouldn't let go that's why she lashed out- he put his hands on her first
A real man NEVER hits a woman, resorting to pathetic excuses like she hit him first is cowardice.
bro Ariel said u treat women how u wanna be treated. i'll be damned if i will let anyone man or woman hit me
Women need to stop assaulting men and thinking they aren't committing a crime.
Make this show a historical moment in MMA history due to the pure consciousness of Ariel guiding this sport out of darkness.
Ariel I’ve been a fan of yours since 2009 or so. You’ve covered the sport better than anyone. You’ve been on the end of many shitty deals. The tables have turned and yet you still show class. You are a living example of a gentleman a dying breed if you ask me. You are right by the way, there is never repercussions for anything now days. God Bless you and your family.
just keep your little face diaper on extra tight, you're such an amazing and wonderful human!

Its awesome not being like Ariel.
Ariel being one of the few outspoken figureheads in a sport thats been nearly monopolized by one entity is very, very refreshing
Guy literally explains how he doesn't believe in equality 🤣🤡
@@lukemurray4950 oh Dana was so threatened by his wife! Had to put her in her place… you the clown f@cko
@@kidadam No you are the clown because the whole woke mindset people like you are Ariel push just unravels in times like this! This "equality" thing is fake because the whole idea is women are just as strong as men and can do anything a man can do and there are no biological differences between the genders! That is completely not true and you all know that in times like this!
You can't push woke ideology and not call it out and then say "men shouldn't defend themselves when hit by a women" it's either or. You can't have it both ways because there are real world consequences to these ideologies and this is one of them!
Yep that’s why he is needed. Him and Rick is what real fans think of the sport and fighters. To think that Journalist are killed in other countries and in the US are allowed to voice opinions, is why we are great.
@@lukemurray4950 take this bull$hit back to your q forms and truth social. You living in the dark ages.
Perfect video this was exactly the kind of take that was needed. Professional even though he could've taken it much worse.
The majority of the ufc reporters don't ask Dana White the tough questions or criticize him because they don't want to lose their press credentials to the post fight press conferences.
That's a fact.
That closing statement was a drop the mic moment. Kudos Ariel, you nailed this commentary.
Yeah real mic drop moment. Lol it was cringe AF
@@12monkey57wasn’t really though was it
Ariel must be placing a voodoo curse on his enemies. From Paddy, Brendan Schaub, Dillon Danis to Dana White. All of them have had a terrible string of luck lately.
Most of those people have more money that him
What happened to Brendan?
Don't think its bad luck but Ariel showing he's a pretty good judge of character. These guys just showing their true colors.
all hail the king, helwani.
Luck???
I’m starting to think his go to move is to create drama with Dana White and other UFC related people like Brendan Schaub, Rampage, Diaz, Joe Rogan, Masvidal, Paddy Pimblett or whoever else. Not to mention talking about Dana’s kids, and throwing shade on his business, which is money, and you don’t mess with a man’s money.
That end part made my respect for ariel go up 1000000%.
So Savage but style full.👌
Ariel is a Straight up G 😎💪
He invited Jon jones even after jones beat his wife so he’s fake
Went to walk my dogs and as I was finishing my walk, the way this video ended it really spoke to me. How people talk about others, the lack of empathy they show for others, it says more about them than it does about you. When Dana said the comment about your kids Ariel, I thought nothing of it because it didn’t carry any weight on the type of person you are; but hearing you repeat those words back to him, after what he just did, it spoke volumes of what type of person he is. Keep up the great work Ariel, holding those in power accountable for their actions is what I admire most about you.

Are you OK with Ariel Helwani asking Jon Jones to come on his show despite the domestic abuse police call made against him by his own children?

Yes, and if hes Kids are boys females should get to punch them straight in the face ten times if they feel like it because violence is supercool if its done to men. Ariels own words.

Glad Ariel uses his powerful voice to spread this message, hopefully he can reach some kids. Thanks Ariel 👏
His wife claimed that nothing like this has ever happened between them before. But she sure went right over there and slapped the taste outta his mouth in full public view, as if that's her "Go-To Move" whenever they have an argument.
And women that have been physically abused don’t tend to start physical altercations

Much respect brother. Spoken like a real man and you handled this like a real man. The words you spoke is exactly how I feel and I thought that's how 90% + of men out there. Sad world we live in anymore
Thank you so much for your comments on this. At first I was leaning towards a lot of grace for Dana White but then I watched the video multiple times and watched all of his interviews. No one is talking about the power/strength imbalance between him and his wife. He has trained in boxing and fighting, he is very muscular. His wife is petite and in her 50’s (women loose muscle at this age faster than men.) She should never have hit him but he HELD her to get the second hit in. If this is done in public, there is no way this hasn’t happened at home.
Are you OK with Ariel Helwani asking Jon Jones to come on his show despite the domestic abuse police call made against him by his own children?
@@slaviclungdonator9463 What a weird and random question. Why would he be?

Wow. The ending was possibly the best mic drop I've ever seen. Ariel caught a body. P4P Head-Shot Dead. 👏

I got goosebumps. Dana with steam coming out of his ears right now. Dana White is a bully, even hits his wife so what regard does he have for anyone else! ZERO!!!! Ariel you are always going to be a bigger man than Dana!

But everytime he was asked about fighter's pay or something that has something to do with Dana, he always ended up defending the boss.

Ariel’s openness to Jones/G.Hardy on his show benefits Ariel. It also benefits Ariel to call out/criticize Dana. I listen to Ariel’s show and enjoy it but he is not without self-serving stances. He is not perfect and has shown he can be hypocritical.
Am I the only one noticing that certain posts are being deleted?
Thank for you saying what needed to be said. You've always been the voice of reason in MMA. Never a d**k rider. Never a "yes" man. Good for you.

Unfortunately he comes across as a vindictive cry baby. He doesn't know the facts. Does he know if Dana's wife hasn't been violent behind closed doors? Maybe she did it in public and finally Dana lost it? He does not have the facts but seems very conclusive in his statements. I think he did not do himself real favors. I am not defending Dana's actions, same time I can't relate or condone public opinion trials.
@@sy6550 yeah, the worst kind. He opens up his speech as if he’s so principled and going to take the high ground. But he can’t help sniping the whole time like the beta cuck that he is
Damn, that ending. Someone had to say it. Good to see some people still hold integrity in high regard.
His reasoning is why women thinkk they can slap men without conseuquence , then when she gets hit back guys like ariel just talk and give her 0 accountability . Gets women hurt. Basic non thinking take
@Nathan Nitai Das ya and seem like the good with no one challenging your point.. The bots eat it up tho
So dramatic
@Nathan Nitai Das Damn, you guys still debating this? A big dude does not hit his wife, the mother of his children. If she was the physically bigger person, he would get more empathy, but on steroids, running a fight organization, promoting Power slap as a new sport. Nah, Helwani is right, why defend Dana when he is not even defending himself?
@Nathan Nitai Das Now replace that much smaller dude with his own wife, the mother of his children. It is never right. And Dana himself does not think so either, so who are you defending here?
Are you OK with Ariel Helwani asking Jon Jones to come on his show despite the domestic abuse police call made against him by his own children?
You nailed it, bro. Bravo! No one is allowed to talk to Dana White like this, and that's the problem. He's the king of the UFC. Kings feel no sense of accountability to anyone. To them, it's their world and you should just be happy if they allow you to exist in it. Go against them, and they crush you. Period.
Good Lord. It's becoming abundantly clear, Ariel is the hero we've always needed in MMA and sports in general. What a mensch. 😎🤙🏾
I didn't know mensch was an English word. It's also the German word for human.
This is historic. That ending is just masterful.
Have to disagree with you Ariel, you making it seem ok for women to go around slapping men. Couples assaulting each other is just not cool, whomever threw the first blow, it is wrong on both sides.
YOU have to jump on this Ariel, because it's really about YOU. These news articles are not about bringing the sport up. It's about promoting Ariel Helwani. Notice how UFC has gone downhill since they gave him a job. None of the fighters like him. It's obvious in the interviews.
Ariel has waited all his life just for this moment and it can be seen 😂
he nailed it !
lmao exactly what i said, hes had this grudge on his shoulder for a long time
Exactly 😄 Ariel was crying so hard, now he thinks he can put himself above Dana because Dana hit his wife after she hit him first
Plenty of stored up salt spilling out
He will now sleep 🛌 better at night. Get your money Ariel.
To people who are saying Ariel is loving this, he just a hater etc etc, Dana started this whole thing with Ariel and continued it when Ariel stopped mentioning his name. So Ariel is finishing it.
Doesn't mean he isn't loving it and a hater though. Can't he be both?
Finishing it with a KO. Night night, Dana
A lot of people are hating, but Dana brought it up on himself.
@Charizard you're dumb 🤷🏻♂️
@Charizard "Leaking" a fight ffs. Boohoo grow up
This is really just one word regarding Ariel.... Integrity
Everyone involved - Paddy, Dana, Ariel - revealed themselves, and quickly. Well done, Ariel.
And this right here is why Ariel had to walk away from his deal with ESPN. He knows in his heart that above money or anything else they can offer ESPN, he wanted freedom to do his job the way he knows is right.
Well said my brother. Keep up the great work. The sporting world is better with you in it and you are just getting started!!!

Dana: Against my wife? With more offense.
Judge: I meant here in a court room regarding slapping your wife.
Dana: We're from Stockton so this is the family thing
😂😂
Head movement!!
He got hit first. Dana wouldn’t get in trouble
Not funny at all

Just a question ariel .
Did u have this much smoke for Rhonda rousy when she wrote in her book that she beat up her boyfriend ?
Ariel with the mic drop at the end!!!! Absolutely BODIED this. Hats off to you sir.
I appreciate this. Thank you, Helwani. I don’t normally watch your stuff but I know there wasn’t gonna be a filter and the real was about to be said.
There are lessons here for men AND women. Men are human but we are obviously held to a higher standard. “No matter what, dont put your hands on a woman”. I definitely agree that it is better to walk away BUT I most certainly let my daughters know that not all men will give them a pass or show them that kind of mercy. It is best that we all keep our hands to ourselves.
Damn, Ariel is truely the man, so thankful we have someone who has the balls to stand up for what he knows it right and not pander to the big guys
It's wild how Dana White would fire any UFC fighter unless a BIG name if he saw that footage of that slap but it being Dana it has no repercussions lol
I lost all respect for you when you said when a woman hits you 10 times, so be it, you walk away wtf???!?!? I would never hit a woman, but if Im not a physical threat to somebody and the hand swings against my face it doesn't matter if the hand is from a woman or a man, my hand will swing back. dont freakin slap me if I haven't threatened you PERIOD!!!
@@badrm9175 call me mike Tyson. youre a victim of this feminism wave making you think its ok for a woman to hit the man and the man should just shut up and take it. have some self respect and defend yourself!
A cop told me one night "if a woman steps into a man's shoes then treat her like a man" this was after a wild hell raising girl attacked me. My girlfriend at the time was like hell naw but....
It will likely never happen but Ariel deserves to be in the UFC hall of fame for all he’s done for the sport while respectfully putting up with all the sport has put him through. His journalistic contributions are unmatched.
There should be a MMA hall of fame just the same way there's a boxing hall of fame. So many great MMA fighters outside the UFC.
Your delusional
100%
He is in the Fedor, Frank Shamrock wing
Lol why? He’s not part of the ufc at all!
That was beyond brutal. Dana seriously got destroyed.
Lesson learned, tell you daughters they have the right to slap everyone
@@Hittlinho lol dude everywhere copy and pasting the same comment :D
But no one will do anything, and Ariel will carry on. He will unironically promote Jon Jones and other wife beaters.
@@ivaolo are you following me
Dana is laughing his ass off at weasel Helwani rn lmao
When your mom writes a book burying you, I can't imagine a bigger indictment of your character
Keep doing your thing Ariel. That ending was the chef's kiss, too good.
Respect Ariel for saying it how it is. You are the number 1 MMA journalist for a reason and you have a lot to be proud of in how you cover this sport.
Dude needs to move on already,
It's a private matter.
Delusional
c'mon he is a weasel. He acts all friendly with alex in the interview even tho he talked about kicking his kid few weeks ago. Also he ain't even talking bout domestic abuse when he interviews jones in the future. But he's the best we got for now as a "journalist".
Lmao then why is he inviting Jon jones to his podcast considering he beat his wife too
Ariel has been waiting for something like this 😂
like a real weasel
@@mmacult5336 😅
The only reason there haven't been more Dana scandals, is most people with dirt on him are probably still reliant on him financially. If female fighters, ring girls, ESPN employees, etc talk about his behavior they lose their jobs. Dana 100% gets "MeToo'ed" at some point after retiring by a group of women who come forward about him trading opportunity for sex.
@@mmacult5336 like someone who knows you can't hide true character*
we were all expecting it. emoji....
Nothing to discuss. Dana was assaulted and he instinctively had a reflex. Keep your hand to yourself.
But I do agree he could have just walked away.
