shout out New York Rick for setting Ariel straight on Garry. He is not walking the walk.

[@Monkey_11]

I don’t like Garry but he’s good. Can’t deny him that, he realized he was getting outclassed in the standup so he changed his game plan to win the fight. I guess you’d rather him get knocked out and ruin his win streak? He doesn’t care to impress nobodies on the internet.

[@zephyrleapold6796]

[@partyatmyfuneral1]

It was funny at the press conference when some said “you’re embracing the villain role” and Garry replied he isn’t. You know it is literally killing him inside that he isn’t liked by the fans. He’s just so insufferable and has absolutely no self awareness. Always contradicting himself and divorced from reality.

[@bfonk2355]

If he didn’t come on his show regularly I guarantee his opinions would be different lol

[@forwardgrappling]

Helwani and the rest of the guys on The Ringer are delusional about Ian Garry. The whole lead up to the fight was that Ian was gonna beat MVP at his own game and then immediately showed he didn't want any part of that kind of fight. Of course fans are gonna be disappointed. Ian hasn't tried to wrestle anyone in any of his UFC fights.

[@kyotothekeeper177]

Do you even listen to the Ringer show? They stated multiple times that Garry would not win if he fought MVP at his own game on the outside, but could tough out a win if he mixed in grappling along the fence and mixing in takedowns. Petesy nd crew called it perfectly lol, you're just hating for no reason

[@noxzy69]

@@kyotothekeeper177 literally

[@nbjfc8967]

@@kyotothekeeper177this was the way to win the fight. Agreed. I do think they are delusional on his current upside. He doesn’t beat JDM or Shavkat, let alone Leon.

[@forwardgrappling]

@@kyotothekeeper177my apologies, Petesey was right that Garry does himself no favors with the way he talks but then Helwani asked who looks good against Magny, Neal, and MVP? Quite a few have and none of those opponents talked as much as Garry. it's a similar issue I have with Strickland where they talk like their action fighters but offer no action. I actually enjoy Garry as a family man and think he's a good dude but the act has ran its course.

[@iamfishmind]

@@forwardgrappling jed meshew had a great quote on Adesanya after fighting Cannonier that I always remember. Roughly: "he's like 'I'm a vampire and I'm gonna drink your blood! by which I mean leg kick you and stay 5 feet away at all times!'" Izzy is a terrific striker, but that type of thing really annoys people and yeah it was mostly Petesy talking like that on the ringer, iirc

[@Surre4LSoto]

Pereira vs Volkov would actually be so sick to see as a precursor to a title shot at HW. Actually really curious how that would play out

[@Surre4LSoto]

Also the argument that it would be a bad style fight because Volkov would just use a long jab from GC and Ric is actually so ignorant to the level of kickboxing Alex has. You don’t think he would find a way around the height disadvantage?

[@Sssensei11]

i’m sure Izzy regrets ever taunting Alex. that interview where he said no one will ever know who he is and we’ll just be some drunk in a bar saying “i beat that guy once” while he’s champ. now look how it all ended up. Izzy no longer a champ and Alex a 2 division/current champ and is now bigger than him… Chama 🗿

[@JeremyDuke10]

Ariel, obviously I'm a fan. That's why I keep tuning in. But Ian Garry is not the hill to die on. Even if he keeps winning he has a self sabotaging way and you're only going to get dragged down passionately defending him.

Tom scraps and grapplers and makes it a fight with Alex. Alex vs John is an Alex stuffs take downs when no one thinks he can and scraps and ends up koing John as to why we will not see that fight ever. Dana will keep Alex away from John in the hopes he can't get through tom and John will retire before he's smoked by Alex. I believe in tom and not in the UFC.

[@lawrencehackett6479]

I respect what ariels saying about p4p & his argument for àlex Pereira.. But danas 100% right..Jon Jones is #1 p4p today. Its simply because jones is unbeaten today. & is the sitting active ufc heavyweight champion & formerly the light heavyweight champion. A division he cleared out 3 times. For about a decade. The division alex is in today with 3 fights. Against 2 dudes who are 1 dimensional whereas jon fought EVERY facet. From the best wrestler of the 205 ever in d.c & jones not only wins both with one putting d.c out cold but out wrestles him.. To jones fighting the scariest striker/kickboxer 205 has ever seen.. a freak of nature (before alex of course) alexander Gustafson.. dudes far bigger than jon too. Jon beat him 2 times. Finishing him the 2nd time. The case for p4p is very simple.. who wins in a hypothetical fight.. Jon jones vs alex at 205 or at heavyweight? Jon jones puts alex on his *ss & makes alex do that stare again except this time its staring at the lights from lethal ground & pound elbows. Stop it ariel.. If theres one thing dana has pull on, its the p4p rankings. I had jones #1 prior to it. But hearing dana agree, its only made my stance super secure. Stop it. Make your case for p4p in December after jones whoops that firefighter from ohios *ss

[@jonoharper4729]

You're obviously referring to the "P4P Ped assisted rankings". Dude couldn't do it without the juice 💉💉 🤣

[@OverproofMMA]

Your argument makes sense if P4P was an all time thing. The P4P list the UFC and fans reference usually takes in the wins and performances in the past few years. It's a topical list, not a historical one. Jones has fought once in 5 years, and his fight before that is nearly unanimously viewed as a loss for him (to an opponent who immediately went on a 4 fight skid afterwards). You assuming the outcome of a fight that's never been booked doesn't count as an actual real win for Jones either. You don't know for sure that Jones can close the distance on Pereira without getting knocked out. Comparing Alex Pereira to Alexander Gustafsson is hilarious as well. You know damn well that Gustafsson is a dogshit striker compared to Poatan.

[@darrinsmith1139]

Using your definition of P4P, in a hypothetical fight, the english guy Aspinall beats Jon. Jon knows it too, that's why he doesn't want it, that's why he running
