Ariel Helwani, Yahoo news, So Dana, how is the Sphere event coming along? How many tickets have been sold? Is it profitable? Why isnt Dan Ige featured on the card? He was promised a spot when he came in on hours notice against Diego Lopes.
Also can you go into more detail about the current PED testing protocols with the departure of USADA? What are the similarities, what are the differences?
Oh and can you give us details on why Ankalaev was not given the title shot and instead it was given to a man who was suspended for PED violation?
LoL those are 'Best Behavior' Helwani Questions...
everyday Helwani questions are more like.
'So Dana, you scrapped the authenticity the UFC gained with USADA for McGregors return fight and then he pulled the carpet out from under you by withdrawing and is now apparently done with MMA and is pursuing election as president of Ireland... How does that make you feel???'
'Dana, How do you think the legitimacy of the UFC heavy weight division is effected with Jon Jones and the UFC powers that be allowing him to cherry pick a fight that some might say is against a well past his prime and inactive firefighter rather than facing the top contenders? and if Jones is the champ and ready to fight how does it make sense that a interim strap is in another's fighter hands but the champ is not facing other said fighter? Could you comment on that please'
' And Finally Dana, are you the one making these decisions at the UFC and if not who is? Who's really in charge at the UFC?'

Yea shes a content creator.
I dont think anyone is trying to pass her off as anything else, though.
Its dumb ass fans who think that she is cos they dont know what the fuck they are talkin about.
I think the real fans are just annoyed she gets more access to the fighters than actual journalists do so

I think Kevin Iole is my new favorite. Asks pertinent questions and seems to summon respect from Dana.

I despise Ariel but you gotta hand it to him, he has a great work ethic and is a pro. I'm sure the content will be good. Except Ariel's fighter interviews, those will always suck balls.

Seems like your a hater, and prefer the fat UFC simps who ask the pre-approved questions instead.
Calling people simps is a lazy and simple-minded way to trash talk.

Why wouldnt she? She works for them.
She's not a journalist so there is no reason to monitor her access.
Her job is to make entertaining skits.
