    Paddy is the last person to start going off about Ariel. Ariel has shown Paddy nothing but respect for years before he even entered the UFC. When he first came 4/5 years ago, when he wasn’t really known, Ariel was very kind to him and wanted to talk to him, regardless of his stature and was very clear in his admiration for him. To backstab the man who has treated you with dignity and respect and even took a chance by wanting you on the show when no-one knew who you were is outrageous. Paddy needs to be taken down a few notches and realise just because your boss is in front of you, it doesn’t mean you start chatting utter crap and spewing nasty crap at someone who has done nothing bad to you.

      And many fighters starting podcasts as well, which is fine, but that doesn’t make Brendan Schwab or Paddy a journalist.

      I do think he should put his foot down, though. I get that it’s a dream to work with these huge sports outlets to cover the sport, but he doesn’t need to associate himself with ANY of these big corps. He’s earned enough of a following and respect from fans over the years, so much so that he could and SHOULD become independent. Get out of these contracts that bar you from covering the sport with honesty, he’d be much more successful financially and I don’t think ANYONE should have a problem with it. Being covered and interviewed by Ariel should be a privilege, not something that fighters complain about because “erghh you make mOnEy off iNtErVieWs!!”. He SHOULD be making money, and plenty of it.

  • @TreyParker318
    @TreyParker318 Před rokem +36

    The fact Ariel is still around after Dana has publicly shamed and black balled him, shows that he's a genuine dude and MOST ppl can see that. I liked Paddy at first, and I still think he's just a young kid who probably has alot of leeches around(his manager) , but he needs to be humbled. He's too full of himself lately.

    • @thomas160399
      @thomas160399 Před rokem +6

      The thing is, Paddy isn't a young kid. He's pushing 30 despite looking like a 23 or 24 year old. This is just straight who he is. A company man that will throw integrity out the window in order to get into his boss' good graces. Go figure.

      Being ungrateful to those that stood by you when you were down is probably one of the uglier paths a person can take after achieving success.

      Even though Paddy can be a bit of a tool, I kind of liked some of what he does and has to say but now I'm all out. I think a lot of others will be too going from the comments about this. It's his own fault so I don't feel bad for the guy.

      Hes a kiss a$$ getting on his knees to move up the ladder. He hasn't even beat anybody worth a damn. Im hoping my wifes cousins husband gets a chance at Paddy. They are in the same weight division. Hes got just as many UFC wins as Paddy but is closing out the free televised prelims while Paddy is co main eventing.

    This is a masterclass. I've never been so disappointed in someone before. Some MMA fighters have done much worse than Paddy lying about you, but it's just more disappointing because he seemed like such a stand up guy. Really hope he let's go of his ego and apologizes someday

    • @leonardomichua

      Bro, I swear. You never seen Paddy the Baddy insult others? He’s done it his whole career.
      I thought he was a “stand up guy.” My man……………..
      He’s done it from beginning to the end. It’s just his personality to insult others
      I started laughing when I heard Ariel start reading a message he received from Paddy cursing him out 😂😂
      Under no circumstances is it right to insult others, yet Paddy sends messages doing that. Doesn’t apologize and continues on
      How in the world did you ever see that as a “good person?”
      It’s Paddy The Baddy

    Another 10-7 round for the best journalist in the game. I went to Niagara falls back in September for the first time in my life and low and behold I see Ariel with his family. I chose not to bother him because he looked like he was genuinely just enjoying some family time but it made me realize that behind the Heelwani, lies your typical family man.
