Hello, friends.
It’s that time of the week again.
As always, everything and anything goes. Same deal. Same format. Same no holds barred attitude.
I’ll answer as many as possible on the show.
Again, try to keep them short and sweet, if possible. That increases your chances of having the question answered on air.
Good luck, and make ‘em count!
And we will see you TOMORROW on our new YouTube channel!
(PS. Check out our new channel here! And sub! And sub to our pod feeds — Spotify and Apple — too!)
Hi Ariel,
Any thoughts on your DMs with Catalina White being made public? Honestly, I went through them (it took less than a minute), and I didn’t see anything damning. It just looks like you know her and enjoy some lighthearted banter.
It seems people are blowing this out of proportion because you’re now "Netflix Helwani" and, naturally, a bigger name than ever. What’s your response to those trying to tarnish your reputation?
Ariel, I acknowledge you as my tribal chief.
However, yall gotta start putting some respect on Cyborg's name. If there were a MMA mount Rushmore, Cyborg would have to be on it. Please consider these 3 quick points.
1. If Jones and Anderson are eligible then she is eligible.
2. She started in 2005, won a Major title in 2009 and then won another Major title 15 years later.
3. She is 17-1 in title fights, and 7-0 in title fights since her last loss. Compare that to Anderson, Aldo or even Nunes who is 2-0 since her last loss.
You cannot tell the story of Woman's MMA, at any point, without mentioning Chris. Please give her thre respect that she deserves.
