It’s crazy how you guys basically always have the stars of the weekend on every Monday , love it
so crazy...durr
I love it. Ariel is the key to any MMA news.
@satoshi bot comment
Gets easier when you've the biggest followers base
Ariel's living the dream. Dude's def got the best job in all of MMA. Has the best show too.
Dom is the best at breaking down fights and explaining them from a fighter to a fan perspective.. love listening to him talk and miss him when they don’t have him on the broadcasts.
Completely agree
it's a bit of everything
Same
@satoshi why you commenting everyone’s a bot you weirdo
@satoshi def not a bot.. what you got against Dom lol
I love how Ariel just lets Dom talk. He is so wise in MMA and life for that matter.
Cruz is my fav fighter that line about respect was straight knowledge
Dom hit the nail on the head about Henry’s retirement @ the height of his MMA career, to avoid the pressure… 🤛🏾
Lol what pressure bro caught Demetrius and beat him most people don’t even ever get to fight that man twice let alone take the title from him.
@@Joseperez-oz7to You’re entitled to your opinion as am I…🤔
@@Joseperez-oz7to you don’t think there’s any pressure that comes from being the champ? 🤡
@@Reyjr77 hell nah not when he was champion. Bro there was no competition 3 years ago, everybody was a scrub the division is only more competitive because cejudo left. It’s been 3 years and div is way better because of cejudo wether you like it or not 🤡
@@cruzangirl007 yeah 😎 your opinion is wrong though so 🤷♂️
Dam, Dom hit the blunt strong this morning.
He was talkin exactly how I do when the edibles kick in.
@@mosval8985 some of us don't need externals to reflect and analyze ourselves. Some us us are actually quality humans striving to be better, no drugs needed.
@@arizonacolour8793 Sure sounds like it
Ariel was like alright didn’t know we were gettin this introspective lmao
@@arizonacolour8793quality human beings lmao shutup dork
Aljo keeping it REAL!
WOW, Dom’s Philosophy is Amazing…🤗
Dom has one of the best minds in this sport, hands down.
I was in the crowd at One and I went back and watched some of it back just to see different angles. Man that crowd was great, chanting “Rodtang” when Rodtang stepped out during the DJ fight. The crowd was amazing. 10/10 experience thanks to One
Crazy lineup!!🔥🔥🔥🔥
Sterling is a stud, has defeated a bunch of elite athletes including a goat in lighter divisions like Triple C but, no matter what, people don't like him. He said a huge true that's kinda sad and disappointing: once he's gone people will start appreciating what he's done and see he was a special fighter, not just a champ with a couple of defenses. It's gonna be like Mighty Mouse: people bashed him, talked sh....and made jokes, but the same hypocrite guys are now "Dana didn't give him respect " and "they shouldn't have changed him for Askren". I'm a Henry fan, think he won last Saturday and I'm still a bit disappointed with the split decision loss, but I'm not blind and I do respect and realize Aljo is something else.
Aljo needs to turn HEEL and become a VILLAIN!
Thank you Ariel for the DC interview. Hes been my favorite fighter since WEC. Hes had a very long road. Injuries and TKOs'. Hes still as articulate and very knowledgeable about MMA. His thoughts are always warranted. 🙏
He on today too!?
@@Rudycota mma hour is live on Monday and Wednesday
Thanks Ariel good show
he will never see this...congrats
@@lastbestplace8112 weirdo
@@lastbestplace8112 wrong. Thanks, tech
@@ArielHelwani 😂 You’re welcome
Wish there were more ONE talk, had the event of the weekend
35:00 Classic Ariel trying to play it off looool
DJ is a wizard. I love to hear him break down fights.
Aljo lists every victory he's had and then says "I wanna stay humble "LOL That's exactly why it's hard to like him
he has to remind the haters
Dom spoke for 15 minutes just to say fighting is a competition. Thanks
I Love DJ so much, such a smart down to earth guy..
Dominic Cruz might be under-utilised in MMA. Very much enjoyed his self analysis of winning and losing - I could very much relate in other aspects of life to those psychological trappings and mindsets.
💯
Love how humble and aware aljo is. Realizes he may lose in the fall, 145 may not work out, could lose and be back at square 1. GOAT idc what people say, numbers don’t lie
Loved the prank by merab that was hilarious
I've been a Aljo fan for a long time. I think he's 100% right. When he's retired people are going to realize how good he really was. I think the UFC will miss him as a Champion. He will always be a Champion but I think they'll realize how great of a Champion he is and how easy he makes their job from a promotional standpoint. Aljo is a company guy by default. He got his success out of the mud and earned respect based on good morals and ethics. I don't think he gets that same respect from the promotion.
Hey Aljo, Thank you for beating Doubled C!
Totally agree, Aljo may sound a little cringe at times but his resume is outstanding in what is an incredible division. I wish he would stop asking for recognition though. He just beat triple C and I'm not sure many others would in bantamweight
not happening

GOATED!!!
Not a mention of Dana’s comments on the worldwide record breaking social media draw of…….SLAPFIGHT🤔😄🤣🤣
All in all it was a great fight!
Great Lineup
Dom is the best analyst employed by the ufc.
His thoughts on Aljo’s fight iq are so good. Aljos strategy to drop down on all 4s is genius. And Dom is right on the money with how smart it actually is.
In the ONE rules it would be madness. Same in a ”real” fight. But in these rules its so smart.
Rogan saying ”he is hanging on his neck” like it was some kind of a damage inflicting move from Henry was so wierd to me in the fight.
Great episode
Don did more for Aljo’s PR in that one interview than Aljo has done his entire career.
lol
Were you watching LIVE ?
Love your work. Getting a shout out from a GOAT, wonderful.
Lololol I lol
Fancy seeing you here
I love listening to interviews from Dominick Cruz. His mind is amazing.
Finally someone with some common sense and saw the fight correctly! NY Rick, spot on w Aljo vs Cejudo analysis
Loving the way Ariel is with forest. Hope they stay up and theyve played well lately.
well done aljo and dj
Aljo says Sean has a small weak head and Sean says Aljo has a big fat head. Which head style shall reign supreme? Find out on the next episode.
You know Henry straight MELTED when he heard Dom say he got out wrestled. If pay to see his reaction.
Aljo, don't fight O'Malley before you are ready. Do it on your timeline.
ALJO you did ittt!!!🎒🎒🦾
Congrats on being accepted into the brotherhood
Dominic talking about wins An loses is some knowledge.
I was pulling for Cejudo but i'm from the old school that if the fight is close the Champ should keep the belt
Frevola would murder Paddy the Faddy
Relegation is a huge deal, especially from a financial point of view . Every Premiership (1st tier) club gets at least 120M $ from TV rights, Championship clubs (2nd tier) get around 9M $ each. Not including sponsorship deals, which are a lot higher in the Premiership. Also, attracting good players is so much easier when you play in the 1st tier.
Sean, daughters are precious. Don’t blink.
The Guru gonna have a field day with this Merab don't need to fight stuff 😂
The Fighting Irish, #1 its O'Malley Time, whooooooo
Great job Aljo and Frevola. Train by day Longo army by night all day
As long as they keep putting Mighty Mouse on the us cards he’ll do just fine business wise
I’m still curious as to what’s up with the toy taped to the wall in the background ?! Lol curious.
I think I'm on an island here but Dom was freaking me out. It's way too early for me to be taking an introspective look at myself. Like damn Dom I hear brother but should've had my coffee first.
One recommendation guys, don't pack 3 consecutive add reads, a little annoying 😅.
Love the show!
Nice podcast bud
Dominik gave some great insights
4:56 cringing but it’s so good 😆
58:27 predicted it perfectly
Interesting how he doesn’t talk about the co main at all in his 3 hour show 🤔
Yes he did
well its kinda hard to talk about a fight that wasn't very good, didn't end up meaning anything for the division. and with two fighters who refuse to talk to ariel.
what was he going to talk about?
Really said the biggest moment was bad bunny coming out?😂😂😂
Everyone is buggin out with these main event score cards. It was easy to score with the exception of round 2. Sterling DEF won 1,3,4. Henry DEF won 5 and edged 2. All three judges giving Henry Rd 3 was crazy and so was Cleary givin Aljo 5
Arials bias is absolutely painful to watch. He goes home and beats his meat after speaking to Omalley
What shoes are those Ariel ??
When did Dom Cruz become Aljos manager??
Dom cruz watching live laughed at a dude who said henry won. It was a clear aljo win.
If only Sean was better on the mic
I didn't really care about Aljo, I could take him or leave him, but after I learned he has the Funk Master Corp, I'm a fan.
Chamba or chambea is a Spanish slang word for working or working it
Dom is so damn cool man
If Aljo folds up O’Malley, I think a title fight at 145 makes sense. Double champ…
1:54:00 he knew what he was doin lmao
UFC should try to get Mighty Mouse back. That would be so epic.
I came here for the Suga Show
I love Sean, and I would love to see him as champion, and one day no doubt will be. Aljo is tough for him, I think he knows that and that’s why he passed it up to let Henry try first. He was confident to beat Henry but not Aljo, and Uncle Chael will tell you, both guys know who will win when they enter the cage. Aljo knows he will win, Sean clearly thought he’d have a better chance against Henry 🤔
Aljo would have a tough time with the top 145ers, imo.
I hope Sean becomes A Champion
He will be a better Champion
The guy has everything to be a Role Model
Lets Go Sean !!!
Shotout from Brownsville Texas to all the world !! 🌎
37:00 Omalley 1:07:00 cruz 1:33:00 Mighty mouse
The commentary on the Aljo fight was ridiculously biased towards a Aljo, that's why. There was a moment we're Aljo missed three punches in a row and Henry hit him with a hook and they were congratulating Aljo.
The 2nd tan fight was close I don't think it was decisive I think he won but it could of went the other way
40:40 Sean
Ariel and his high pitch voice
Congrats to aljo Def no controversy. But great fight really enjoyed
Bot comment.
@@Jack-ur7mq lol. Goof.
They were booing Aljo before, during, and after the fight, idk what Ariel is talking about lol
As soon as I seen mage won I thought of u Frank
aljamain on here looking like skinbone😂😂😂
Chito’s foot lives in Cruz lip
Come at the king is an old saying from a Black Classic Film
Funk Master reppin Strong Island. And Still.
The biggest salmon family in the biz you say huh ? 😂😂😂😂
get Stamp Fairtex, Rodtang or Zebaztian Kadestam on the show. that ONE main card was liiiiiit!
rodtang adjustment to the spinning elbow was nassssty.
stamp OBVIOUSLY has a much bigger US following then at least I thought.
and the bandit stopped one of the biggest free agency signing outside the ufc on a broken foot after being absolutly pieced up in the 1st round.
Henry came back after 3 years and arguably beat the best champion the division has ever seen…. What are we talking about here… His next fight he’s dominating. It would have been better for everyone if Henry won, because now that he lost, he can zero in on mistakes. If he doesn’t retire, he’s here.
Sterling volk would be a good super fight i still lean towards voll but hope it happens
“Chambea” means cocking a gun before firing it.
O’Malley would be more amazing with someone like RJJ, he already has great reflexes
Dom is such a classy guy.
His insight and attitude is respectable.
Obviously he’s had issues with judging, but that’s him being emotionally invested.
DJ watches MeatCanyon.!?!? 😱🤯
What a legend. 🗣️🤣
Aljo vs DEMETRIUS
We need to change up that intro 😂😂😂
Dom is the best
O'malley is my guy. i knew from his first fight that boy was gonna be a problem. obviously the Chitto fight was a fluke. i love how they underdog sean cause hes puts alotta $money in my pocket every fight
Anyone see O'Malley getting out of round 1 with Aljo hanging off his back? Not a chance
Definitely gave it 3-1 to aljo watching, & not to mention triple c’s corner knew he was losing by the 3rd going into the 4th round they told him, IF Henry decides to stay after contemplating about retirement again, he could possibly stay go up to 145 like he planned an fight halloway? Max’s is in a wierd spot ? But didn’t a reports give Henry advice to stay an fight merab too, soo he could potentially get back another title shot at 135? But I don’t like that idea of merab & cejudo, the machine definitely needs to chill and wait it out , Buuuuut overall I give the fight of the night to merab for getting sugas jacket 🤣🤣🤣
3-1? You mean 4-1, or 3-2?
Dominick Cruz vs Henry Judo
