[@drsavage3262]

[@sothis1448]

She was on steroids long before joining the UFC.

[@ru11et]

[@edthealpinedude8933]

you're not alone ma' dude

[@EPSTomcat11]

Now we know which hand she diddles with. That's what it takes to be MMA journalist of the year folks.

[@Dazzyl4real]

Gold.

[@MrMmnngghh]

I second that. A+

[@XoXo475]

At least she looks like a woman. Cyborg looks like something from star trek

[@erstm2ya233]

Supergrover 😂😂😂😂

[@GrowingDownUnder]

jokes on you, you basically just admitted you watch star trek

[@wtfisjuice]

Only she doesn't look like a woman

[@benlewis7320]

Hahah holy

[@notoriouscriptz]

Supergrover 😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@Churtis_Churner]

Felice is so beautiful.

[@gunplaygaming6830]

Curtis Turner you like dudes

[@teamelitedefeat6130]

or he has a preference in women just like you do?

[@teamelitedefeat6130]

sure why not bud if that is what makes you feel less insecure about what your into you can throw it my way

[@bilisherra]

Curtis Turner not really, good for you though. Tbh shes ugly af

[@angelom4930]

Curtis Turner she has a great ass!

[@Dr.Donkeedick]

You’re like a woman with that phone

[@28johncena]

Too funny 😂

[@hankm16]

4 years after they finally fought against at Ufcvegas56 felice has lost the will to fight and Retired while Karolina broke her 5 fight losing streak

[@mayadahlifestyle9401]

I am a female fighter and I can say for sure she does not look like she is on steroids. She’s been in the game for a long time. Her upper body is developed. What you are looking at is dedication. When you punch something repeatedly...it shreds your muscles. That is her genetics. You should look her up, before UFC she did fitness competition. Her jaw is clinched because she is cold...her muscles are flexed because she is cold and doesn’t want her teeth to chatter in her interview. She is a very good fighter. Great interview!💓💓💓

[@miheekrao1292]

If u look closely u can see she has sweat stains in her underarms, which tells me she is not cold..so the reaosn her muscles are tensed is probably becoz of extetnal substances? If she were cold, why wd she perspire?

[@houghtonization]

Some of these comments 😂😂😂😂

[@dritern]

haha ariel at the end

[@shawnb3744]

Week 20 of my workout program and she's still more buff than I am...

[@pioleq]

She seems such a cool person! Though im #teamKarolina i wish Felice all the best!

[@rikkilee9409]

she just loves having people thinking about her beaver

[@TheJoker-zc1mn]

She is the type of girl that would let u come in her face no prob lmao

[@seannb7861]

Alejandro Javier how old are you?

[@DK-xk1jl]

Alejandro Javier She wouldn't let you come within 100 feet of her.

[@MilkoOfficialChannel]

If you just can...you can only come out.

[@aaronjoyce6122]

Ruthless

[@HR-jy1nb]

Alejandro Javier that face is strong

[@garyluten8914]

Felice looks amazing as usual. Can't wait for this crazy ppv.

[@MikeyMuse52]

Gorgeous

[@ramtrucks721]

Her legs ass are awesome

[@cdubb3]

She is so down to earth hilarious....lol!!!

[@vaibhavbhalerao2963]

The way Ariel connects with fighters and viewers is just amazing

[@johnclark4951]

I've watched her from her start n she has always been on the stocky side,with all her years ok training your bound to get bigger just give the girl a break god know she needs it from what she has been put through getting best on and the punishment from the UFC good luck n get that win girl !!!!!

[@TRUETALK11613]

Ariels videos always uploaded last these days

[@GBLynden]

The end lol

[@VanBooter]

Looks like a Punch and Judy show, "that's the way to do it"

[@darkrzane]

She's gorgeous. She's ripped right now which I'm not as much into, but off season she's a stunner.

[@bochafish]

I live close to Curran MMA where she trains. She was really pushed for her bjj purple belt, and hasn't lost since she got it. Who cares about what she looks like, she can fight!

[@johnnywishbone932]

I never shake left handed. It's a sign of disrespect. The TKD pattern Chong Moo ends in a left handed move to show the generals forced service to his king.

[@Roy_Godiksen]

Isn't this outfit a "get sick" hazard? One of the UFC people should get a coat for Felice! Though this looks better for the viewers :-)

[@Ralowski]

Felice is Beautiful! Lets Go!

[@digfidge]

I am not sure whats funnier the comments or the fact that she thought she should get a title shot if she won.

[@0000blueboy0000]

sweeeeet Caroline

[@jceezy214]

Bah bah bah

[@dzohare672]

someone needs to help her pronounce peoples names, nearly got every person she mentioned wrong, carolinas a state for the love of god

[@youngd.3208]

GOAT ending for a ufc fighter interview

[@superwoofer21]

she makes me uncomfortable

[@jackjude]

would be great if they actually showed a bit more her outfit and why she was underdresed for the weather, she had gone to he trouble show off.

[@denverdenver82]

I thought U.Faber stopped fighting!

[@raoulfr]

Hopefully Felice shows up, mental game is only thing stopping her in my opinion.

[@pawezawadzki2155]

Witam. Uważam, że zarówno Joanna jak i jej sztab trenerski nie odrobili lekcji. Walka była wyrównana, a nie powinna taka być. Nie wyciągnęli wniosków także z walk przegranych przez Namajunas, szczególnie z walki Kowalkiewicz z Namajunas. Doszło do jakiegoś kuriozum, że Kowalkiewicz która nigdy nie miała do czynienia z muay thai stosuje z powodzeniem tą technikę i wygrywa. Natomiast Jędrzejczyk, mistrzyni świata w muay thai, całkowicie zapomniała o tym stylu. Wiadomo, że Namajunas jest wszechstronna i ma świetną technikę, ale jednocześnie jest bardzo delikatna i źle znosi brutalną walkę w półdystansie, co znakomicie wykorzystała Kowalkiewicz w walce z nią . Trzeba zauważyć, że w całej walce na 5 rund, Jędrzejczyk zadała tylko JEDNO kopnięcie kolanem!!! Z uwagi na fakt, że w kolanach Jędrzejczyk jest perfekcyjna, więc ładnie weszło na głowę Namajunas i od razu widać było jak wielkie zrobiło spustoszenie, Namajunas od razu zaczęła przegrywać. A było to tylko jedno kolano. Druga sprawa to brak łokci u Jędrzejczyk - sytuacja identyczna jak z kolanami. No i za mało niskich kopnięć. Sądzę, że kolana, łokcie i niskie kopnięcia doprowadziłyby do tego, że Namajunas zostałaby znokautowana, lub ewentualnie sędzia musiałby przerwać walkę. A po walce nikt nie potrafiłby rozpoznać Namajunas po twarzy :)) Trochę zdziwiony byłem słabą walką Kowalkiewicz z Herrig, taka na pół gwizdka, bez błysku czy emocji, czegoś zabrakło. Pewnie z jednej strony Karolina odpuściła sobie, bo Herrig jest słabą zawodniczką i nie było potrzeby się wysilać. A z drugiej strony styl łokciowo-kolanowy nie robił takiego spustoszenia jak w walce z Namajunas, bo Herrig to kawał baby i szczękę ma jak krawężnik, to jej jedyna zaleta ;) Zakładam, że teraz może dojść do walki Namajunas vs Kowalkiewicz. A tą walkę Karola powinna wygrać w miarę gładko, byleby była bardziej ofensywna i żwawsza niż w walce z Herrig. Pozdrawiam zawodniczki i kibiców.

[@Vorgaloth]

I met Felice outside after UFC 214 and she reeked of booze and was rather annoying. Other than that, I guess she was nice.

[@PyRoTECniQs]

Vorgaloth Lol

[@LolitaDavidovich934]

Who is nice when they are drunk?

[@gbbox2957]

Felice looking like a snack

[@Bosstype90]

gb box a snack lmao what type a protein bar

[@lewis5079]

Ha gaaaaaayyyyyy

[@auniquedisposition9009]

Yeah, horse bites.

[@youngd.3208]

You nailed it

[@Nate-gj7pb]

A Unique Disposition You must be Maltesers then, hey bud?

[@sammyytube5999]

Felice sure is looking more chiseled...man. KK may not be able to take on this kind of muscle. Any way, I'm ok with either one wining as long as enhancers are not involved.

[@sakyia1]

Felice is beautiful.

[@sakyia1]

Mr. Amerigo Yeah she genuine and free spirited.

[@SupernaturalBeingsofEarth]

Master of his domain Ariel is...

[@theturkish180]

I don't understand the hate She's a beautiful girl inside and out. It's obvious the hate is jealousy.

[@TheRoryR21]

Lookin ripped! Go 'head Warrior!

[@alo6638]

I love her. She is great for the sport. 👊 💕 🇺🇸

[@randyy1964]

I love her vibe and she looks stunning

[@thefullstop23]

"The left hand. Look it up." - Edgy Brah

[@benlie-nielsen2594]

All of you full of it. She’s a world class athlete who works daily under the most rigorous conditions in order to stay a top fighter. She’s built this way due to her work ethic and drive that is beyond most peoples. Also, this is a beautiful woman; what straight guy isn’t turned on by her final comment about masturbating hand. This is a straight up badass woman.

[@UltraEagleZeusYt]

She’s actually not that bad looking I just feel that she’s going a bit crazy about something

[@FBuilding]

I like her interviews.

[@jamescourt5201]

If Felice wins she'll get a shot. UFC would love to push her.

[@VictorLaVance]

That jawline …

[@Gracie_sauer]

Classy as always, Felice 🙄

[@sharpercarpenter]

Great fight ladies. Awesome

[@stipessnowblower6298]

She got a good character

[@supermotorcat]

I’ve never seen him before

[@LuKe10559]

Felice Herrig- beautiful woman...

[@worldwolf9909]

Ariel's nose grew a little bit at the end.

[@oviesau81]

She's going to submit Karolina at the end of the second round. 40° Fahrenheit is not very cold, it is just a little cold.

[@karlisyourpapi8479]

0:45 Easy cameraman

[@al2577891]

She's in good shape!

[@naelshahbaz7469]

This was fun

[@plusmoore]

I think we can agree that demin skirts are never in season, amiright Ariel?

[@2Cannonball]

Why would he ask her about how’s she’s dressed? She’s ripped. She seems prepared to fight.

[@aaronjessome1032]

She got me all sleek and glamorous..... Not even going to say it

[@Pwnziillaaaa]

She shredded

[@PuddelsFleming]

Looking good Felice

[@HendersonHinchfinch]

The thumbnail bugs me.

[@RTX_Remix]

I'm all for freedom of speech... But you guys should think twice before insulting someone who's openly insecure about her looks.

[@ejb20782]

he's more manly than ariel

[@HR-jy1nb]

dz_strike1 Ariel's a man?

[@selk74]

That's not saying a whole lot. She's murder him in a triathlon or any other feats of strength or athleticism.

[@AntiM1001]

And for sure more manly then you

[@GBLynden]

dz_strike1 That isn't saying much. He is wimpy.

[@johnsurf509]

Felice good luck!!!

[@williamchandler2558]

Felice is looking great !

[@despizedicon]

Yeah chin reduction predictions for this fighter anyone?

[@powerhouse9868]

Why can't I have that Jawline?

[@jds232323]

Power House 98 - You can! Go to your local gym and get hooked up with your local juice agent, they are everywhere. As far as the ugly mug that goes with the square jaw, you'll have to use some crack and meth to accomplish that. Not too hard, get to work!

[@powerhouse9868]

Who said anything about a mug?

[@bastounm33]

end of the video hahahahhaha

[@Dooky-mv1by]

She seems nice but I'll be damned if I ever root against Karolina

[@ManuelGutierrez-zb5xm]

The chin, the frontal bossing, the size of the hands, a lot of growth hormone as an adult in this woman...

[@robbielex]

Susie is the best! Felice looks like a movie star!

[@OdinAesthetic]

She's awesome.

[@Smile4CommunityCam]

Ariel commenting on the dress was cringeworthy

[@bhcpp]

She has beautiful muscles.

[@TheMass33]

Felice is on USADA radar!

[@estreladodia8763]

Usada?

[@420blzeitfgt8]

she was off the Winstrol

[@mattrusingmail]

Such a charmer

[@alvarodias68]

Ariel Helwani the type of guy to ask irrelevant questions.

[@TitusLivy777]

Ariel Helwani is just the best. So much smarter and better informed than the other so called "journalists". Too bad the UFC hasn't decided to throw their arms around Helwani and given him the platform he really deserves. Why? Oh, because he's a real journalist...meaning that he reports the facts even when the UFC considers them unflattering. No problem. Now he's batting for himself and routinely hitting the ball over the fence. Where do you go for the truth? Helwani!

[@jayhommie477]

I want her all of her

[@lilianajasso5794]

Felice ❤

[@matthewguariglia9938]

"Carolina"

[@Andarovin]

Should I even look at the comments?

[@MrBBG98]

Can’t wait to see this face off

[@Effexlol]

Cyborg looks good as a blonde

[@rvnwy7261]

She has a stronger jawline than Ariel lmao

[@shawnhaines5544]

6:30 😂
