7:36 this why i like Ariel. 7 minutes in dude asks the right questions and Conor is slightly thrown off of his bad man demeanor and the family man one. Mcgregor knew what was happening and tells him to stop it. 😂

I remember hanging out with Ariel in 2010 at J Jones fight in San Diego. He was just a nerd with a cameraman and a CZcams account. After all the hate he gets this man is the best ever and most dedicated. Keep up the good work Helwani !!
Agree. He's the best

My prediction, Conor is going to make the right adjustments this weekend and beat Dustin. However, it's going to be a close competitive fight.
BT sport censored the England flag in the live stream on the next video. Discrimination at its finest.
I believe Conors' time at the top of MMA sport is over. But I will miss his shenanigans when he's gone. Terrible in a loss though & not a good person imo.
McGregor gets ko'd in the 3rd.
Conor gets choked out in the second
I hope he wins but i doubt it

One Conor/ Ariel interview later: Hype intensified 10x
Ariel is a C+ interviewer. Replay this piece over and over. Some childish probing with hardly anything new and enlightening. Not an apples to apples comparison, ... but listen to any of Dan Hardy's analysis of the upcoming fight and listen to an A+ MMA voice!
Jesus he looks and sounds like old conor. His pitch even sounds different.
Caught that too!
Yeh, my wine glass cracked and my cat ran out the room.
That's cause this is the killer mode conor who's just ready to rip them heads off and this is the conor we want
So no excuses when Dustin wins ?
@@axcell1540 I'm gonna be back here to see what your excuse is gonna be this time after Dustin wins
Every time I hear him say "Dustin's going out on a stretcher", it cracks me up.
Bruh I just noticed the bookcase behind Ariel is a cardboard cutout, I thought it was a green screen lol
Stop bringing up Daughters. I'm dangerous right now. Hahaha, classic Connor.
BT sport is killing it. They’ve got the best line up of analysts/interviewers. Ariel Helwani is the cherry on top!
Ariel is what brought me here 🙏
Hadn't even noticed this was BT too...they are all over it!
@@Dana__black Ariel the GOAT
This is the first time I see and hear Conor being totally relaxed and just being himself in total comfort and it suits him so much better then the way he acts when he's not relaxed and being a bad guy, it's very pleasant to see and hear Conor this way. Both great fighters and both good men but heart goes out to Conor and hope he wins this one and gives us much more fights to come.
It’s okay that u just started watching MMA lol. He’s usually like this
"Awareness is what its about" - Conor is working with Joshua Fabia, that's what we're paying to see this weekend.
Conor saying he looked good when he got knocked out because he looked like he was relaxing is one of the funniest things he has ever said lol. Just impossible to hurt this guys confidence.
For real lmao I need to get some of his confidence 😆😆
I know bro frrr

Ariels buzzing, Dana wants nothing to do with him, then Conor refuses to do any Embedded, then Ariels first guest on BT is Conor🤣 brilliant.
Ariel is winning big time😂😂
My theory Smith ask ESPN to try and get Ariel out give him a pay cut so Smith can do the interviews and try and prove he can do MMA interviews but he doesn't have knowledge but knows he could ask anything cause Dana can't tell smith your out like he did with Ariel ..
So now i think Ariel and Smith will have the greatest battle in journalism history

4:16 because Conor didn’t want to sit down and let that torn up leg pain settle in for when he stands back up. He’s not admitting to his faults I don’t think, here. He’s fighting emotionally. Angry , ready . Might gas out early
Glad to see Ariel back on the grind. Love his perspective and humility. Keep it up Ariel!
Chael Sonnen: "And how does Kevin Lee fits into this"
I hadn't realized until now that Ariel's bookshelf wasn't real.

Yeah it was definitely Derek Lewis
I thought he read them all and was a genius
There is nobody that know how to interview Conor like Ariel, I watched them all and this is the only one that is relaxed and on point.
Yeah, good too see “old” McGregor 🔥🔥🔥

The guys a compulsive liar. Saying he was up straight away when there's video footage of him everywhere lying on the canvas sleeping 😴 and saying dustin was out on his feet in the first and second 🤣🤣🤣 it's embarrassing
Well thats his take & opinion, but for sure Conor did catch him and had him rocked a couple times, Dustin even admitted it. Obv wasn't enough to get the W. The other thing here, at this point that's all Conor has is his power..love or hate him, doesn't matter, Conor still has that one Punch KO ability which will always make him dangerous to other fighters and makes fans tune in to watch it.
"everything happens for a reason" that aged well

His ability to promote a fight will never be matched. I came here thinking he's done for and after the interview he just made me believe he's gonna smoke Dustin in matter of seconds.
🤞🤞👍👊
I love both fighters, but I still see Dustin winning. If Conor wins it is good for the UFC.
Yep 👍
It concerns me that he was eyeing a Pacquiao fight after poirier. Seems to me he has very little care for mma of this is the case. The guy to me just seems like he wants money because if he cares, he would of been preparing for title shot and not boxing fight. Compared to poirier who been fighting non stop for years.
I think it will be different than last time if conor truly dialed in on his mma.
When he said “we dance with the BRAZILIANS AGAIN” i died 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

@@ivoryking509 He destroyed the whole country? how? didnt he destroy only Aldo?
@@Denneeyboy but Brazil was backing up Aldo so much it was crazy, and Conor usually gets in the head of Brazilians. For example rda

Love how Conor shows Ariel the respect he deserves, and vice versa. Ariel is such a great MMA journalist, and Conor knows that. They almost sound like old friends talking at this point.
Never thought I would be happy to see Ariel!! Jk 😁 I like seeing him interviewing Connor! 👍🏼💯
Ok, Conor’s definitely gonna be late for later’s press conference….

Good old Ariel, had to slip in a quick question about new teeth.
This fight is definitely going to bring a LOT of money (maybe more than Conor vs Khabib).
If Conor wins (which is almost impossible), then he's the greatest again for people.
If Dustin wins, he would go on to become the greatest lightweight
