Silliness as far as I can see. They might have just seen it as some street issue but didn't realize that is evidence. I'm guessing adrenaline still going, feeling tough, etc. So unbelievably dumb.
It's also a sad reflection on Jorge. Man, you lost fair and square. Move on
It's a poor sport taken to the nth degree. His ego just can't accept he got bested.
Should Colby talk about his kids? Of course not, that is ridiculous but to sucker punch someone in disguise and use the kids as an excuse is just juvenile.
His video after about being from DADE County looked like a high school kid flexing
I don't like that Jorge did it, but in all honesty he isn't anywhere as close to this popular if he didn't act similarly 3 years ago with Leon. This may have been just as organic as that, but directors love sequels
Malki may be good negotiator and maximizes his guys earnings/sponsorship however as a manager and leader and public perception he is the worst.
Remember he was the manager of the GOAT Jon Jones. Prior to Vegas all his issues were under Malkis watch. As a manager you need to give the guys the come to jesus speech or get ppl around him that are not enablers but speak sense to him.
When Jon fought for the LHW title way back at ufc 128 against shogun, Malki was arguing with fans, being loud and obnoxious leading up to the fight. After he was even worse. I witnessed this first hand.
Everything rises and falls with leadership. These MMA guys should be managed and even if something is done/said in the grand scheme of things is it worth arrest, being a felon, being stripped of a UFC title, losing your career and or sponsorships?
Two of Malkis guys are known to have been in trouble with the law thats not good.
What’s the sweet spot for you when it comes to event’s starting time, running length. Even the day?
Wrestlemania’s coming up and is split into two days again. MMA has done 2, even 3 day cards. How do you find that balance, with the viewpoints of watching as a fan vs covering the event.
Highlight of my year so far was this past weekend, representing Heelwani inside the O2.
The talk of Colby going to 185 and getting an immediate title shot against Izzy is absurd to me, and seems like another way for Colby to avoid the boogeyman aka Khamzat.
If Colby wants to fight a Middleweight, what about Sean Strickland in a #1 contender fight while Izzy fights Cannonier? The trash talk would be cringey but it’s a good matchup of guys who fight at a high pace and would make sense for the winner to get Izzy next.
Or if he wants to fight a lightweight at 170, what about Gaethje if he loses to Oliveira? Gaethje hates Colby and this would be another matchup of insane cardio and pace.
What upsets/bothers you more, Masvidal punching Colby at a Miami restaurant or Colby’s use of trash talk towards people’s wife/children to promote his fights?
Not at all, truly expected this out of him. I even think if he won 2 weeks ago, this incident still occurs. Maybe not as quick as it did, but still would’ve gone down.
Hey Ariel is the reason Dallas is in the mix for UFC 277 because Figgy doesn't want to defend his belt in Anaheim? I have feeling UFC wants to make that the main event with Diaz vs Porier as the Co-Main. I was in Anaheim for the 3rd fight and that felt like a main event. I was really hoping they would run in back at the Honda Center, but I understand Figgys hesitation.
I know Jorge is the "BMF" but jumping someone while wearing a hood is just low and gross, do you think the UFC will punish him or just let it be dealt with in court?
Some boxing questions for you this week Mr 10/7 helwani i was curious if you have recently got back to hitting the bag I know you’ve eluded to not having the time before with all the stuff that’s been going on the last 2 years now that things are starting to ease up have you got back into hitting the pads/bag? If so I think we would like to see what your combos, speed technique be lookin’ like
Also do you know any fighter in recent memory that was ever diagnosed with the same disease as Vergil Ortiz and we’re they ever the same? Rhabdomylosis
Greetings once again from London, Ontario, Canada. I was hoping to get your insight on a common scenario in day-to-day life. When you are walking toward someone in a long corridor and there is a significant distance between the two of you, how soon do you wave? If you wave early on, do you wave again once you have gotten closer? If you wave only once you have gotten close, do you acknowledge them in some other way from a distance, such as a with a head nod? Would appreciate your insights on negating awkwardness in these sorts of encounters.
Marvin Vittori wearing his shorts backwards was pretty funny and endearing. For a more recent fan like me could you fill me in on any other comical/unique moments over the course of UFC history?
Why would Malki be egging on Masvidal to jump Colby? Feels like bad management to be tweeting about an assault for one of your clients.

Lost decisively too. 50-44 is a dominance. I have liked Jorge since his strikeforce days but now after this week IDGAF

Could not agree more. Not a good look for Jorge at all
Now colby Honda get those ppv points in civil court!!!
Gonna*
IMO this happens regardless if he would’ve won or lost 2 weeks ago. Maybe the timing would’ve been delayed, but would’ve happened eventually.
I don't like that Jorge did it, but in all honesty he isn't anywhere as close to this popular if he didn't act similarly 3 years ago with Leon. This may have been just as organic as that, but directors love sequels

Jorge just applied to be a promoter in Nevada and the commissions questions his answer and the end of the call today was SUPER AWKWARD
I do agree they shouldn’t have been posting and tweeting.
Ça Va Ariel!
Assuming the UFC makes a welterweight title fight in December, who do you think is in it?
My money is on Usman v Khamzat, with Khamzat taking the W.
Khamzat’s relentless cardio and Till blinding the champ from the corner with his incredibly white teeth will be too much, even for the P4P king.
🥇 congrats
just keeping the seat warm for you
You guys make me want to resubscribe for another month. The comrades in the chat are awesome
I wish there was a place for an ongoing chat between these
Hi Ariel, absolutely buzzing from the weekend and getting to see the main man Petesy in the flesh along with the Greenroom squad! Magical moments
Question is how would you go about developing the next UK card if indeed it’s PPV and this year. Here’s my thoughts:
September in Wembley or Old Trafford
Main Interim HW title Aspinall and Tai
Co main No1 contender Holloway vs Arnold
Paddy vs Topuria
Molly vs A shevchecko
Main card opener - Mohaev Elliot
My Man, good afternoon Ariel,
What’s the sweet spot for you when it comes to event’s starting time, running length. Even the day?
Wrestlemania’s coming up and is split into two days again. MMA has done 2, even 3 day cards. How do you find that balance, with the viewpoints of watching as a fan vs covering the event.
Highlight of my year so far was this past weekend, representing Heelwani inside the O2.
Much love, Louis
"Newman Reserve" straight into my (MMA lingo) veins. Thank you Louis, great stuff!

colby v werdum's boomerang is the fight to make
👋 Hola Ariel!!!
What upsets/bothers you more, Masvidal punching Colby at a Miami restaurant or Colby’s use of trash talk towards people’s wife/children to promote his fights?
Viva Heelwani 🦹🏻♂️
I'm curious your thoughts on Masvidal actually. I know you're a big fan and so am I. Did this upset you?
Undefeated in the streets!
Lmao 🤣
Not at all, truly expected this out of him. I even think if he won 2 weeks ago, this incident still occurs. Maybe not as quick as it did, but still would’ve gone down.
What was the moment you fell in love with the MMA? Do you remember it?
Hey Ariel is the reason Dallas is in the mix for UFC 277 because Figgy doesn't want to defend his belt in Anaheim?

Sounds like either Usman or Izzy will headline that card

Tony & Werdum interview
TODAYS EPISODE WITH TILL & KHAMZAT!!!
Any Chael highlight video. Search "Chael Sonnen Home Invasion Story" on YouTube.
My favorite (0:49-0:53) is his smile when he says "Password: Not required. User name: Not required" when talking about Wanderlei.
His timing and delivery on this are off the charts.
Till and Mike Perry “spa”
Shalom! Two quick things..
1) I’m going to my first UFC event this weekend. Any tips on how to make the most out of the experience?
2) For G Sizzle, if you were to parlay 3 dogs at ML for UFC Columbus, who would they be?
Ariel, what happens next for Jose Aldo?
I keep hearing you take shots at Phoenix! We have a massive fan base here, look at the reception Justin and Moreno got last year.
By the way give the #1 team in the league a shout out! THE PHOENIX SUNS BAYBAY!
Does Corey Anderson finally taste LHW gold this year, and if so... do you think he finds his way back to UFC to go after that title also?
