Ariel has a very Symbiotic relationship with mma fighters, plus you gotta remember, when Ariel was doing mma fanhouse coverage over a decade ago, he was doing so completely out of pocket. He was featuring paddy on the mma hour when Dana White POINT BLANK said he didn't want paddy 4 years ago. Also, the irony in paddy saying it to DANA FUCKING WHITE; who pays professional fighters 3500/3500 show/win purses and is worth 9 figures, was incredible 😂

No, Paddy deserves the criticism he’s gotten for this. He is responsible for his own words.

[@ysong00]

Don’t get the point by Geordie about Ariel being nice to Conor to “protect the money”… Ariel going after Dana and the UFC was the BIGGEST risk to his money, yet he still did it as a true journalist.

I find the notion that Ariel makes money off fighters completely redundant. Fighters make money off Ariel through exposure, especially when they are unknown. It's a symbiotic relationship. Of course Ariel should make money when doing such work. Why would he do it otherwise??! To be bitter about the fact that he makes money covering the sport is insanely stupid. Without the media the sport wouldn't be as big as it is today and fighters benefit off that. Admittedly I think Ariel could have reacted differently when asked for payment for an interview, and probably just declined and said he doesn't pay for interviews, and good luck. However Paddy behaved like a right twat on his podcast and his reputation has taken a huge hit. You just don't behave like that. Especially towards someone who has helped you early in your career. Disgusting.

I don't think Paddy lied and Ariel didn't lie either. The thing is Paddy doesn't have a lot of knowledge in the area of business and he's not that good with words either like True Geordie points out. He's a fighter at the end of the day and it's his manager who deals with the business side of things, who has definitely influenced Paddy's opinions on Ariel. Paddy's criticisms of Ariel are unfair IMO but I don't see any evidence that he flat out lied even if he is a bit misinformed. He did contact Ariel to set something up but it doesn't mean he didn't wanna be paid for it as that's the standard his manager sets with everyone, and I think what Paddy was trying to say is why would he get an interview with Ariel for free when he can get paid for it, which he believes he rightfully should whether you agree with him or not. So, I don't think he flat out lied but maybe I am missing something here.

[@OwMeEd]

The analysis of the whole "make money off fighters" thing in this video is so BS. Paddy was not making a technical argument about journalists making money off association with fighters, he was clearly arguing that this arrangement is exploitative somehow. Which it obviously isn't. Interviews are not movie parts, they're mutual opportunities for journalists to ask questions and fighters to present themselves to the world. Payment in either direction changes that completely.

His manager asking you for payment as well is actually very telling. Like Conor now, his name is bigger than his skill set. The injury layoff isn't going to help with putting this all behind him. I think there will be a lot of people hoping he (officially) loses his next fight. And, if he doesn't make the necessary changes it's guaranteed to happen. Putting him in the cage with any top ten ranked 155'er would be like throwing Nate Diaz to Khamzat Chimaev. I mean, how ridiculous would that be? 😄

If I see Paddy on different platforms being interviewed (outside UFC fights), I'll now be thinking he must of charged for this. I feel he limits himself by only doing paid interviews.

[@markwhitt8256]

Well I think the reason why Ariel was so offended was because he gave Patty a platform when nobody else would or very other people were asking for an interview with him. And Ariel has always been the biggest MMA show basically. So the way he sees it is I gave you a platform when nobody else would and now that you're in the UFC all the sudden you want to ask me for money to interview you. So I totally see where Ariel is coming from and why he would be so offended but I do agree that I think both sides could have handled it better because now the bridge has been burnt and Patty won't be on the MMA hour

[@johnboy1760]

First point off jump that Ariel indirectly makes money off fighters doesn’t stand up to scrutiny. Paddy accused Ariel, not his company, Ariel clarified. Just because Nike may have sweatshops out somewhere, doesn’t mean the teenager they get to sell them on Oxford street as a part time job should be taken to task. Ariel is paid by a company, that’s not being disingenuous, that’s laying out the facts. What’s more, so what if he is? it’s a symbiotic relationship, if not for Ariel and his contemporaries the sport wouldn’t be as big as it is. Media legitimises a sport, coverage makes a sport more widespread, fans want content. Imagine if the only time we saw McGregor was social media and press conferences on the come up, his meteoric rise wouldn’t have happened. Paddy made an ill thought out point to try and appease Dana and it back fired.

[@seanseany6481]

Thank You!! Someone who finally gets it. Brian clearly doesn’t understand smh .
