@@KeyserSoze23 there are great strikers in mma and terrible strikers. the fighters that come from wrestling or bjj are usually terrible at striking and then you can all so get high level strikers like isreal adesanya who has had over 100 pro kickboxing fights before he was even in the ufc
Classic 😂 man 09 feels like yesterday. Funny I some what relate with Bob at the end but with BKFC now props to the creators and fighters getting paid well but the fights are terrible
I remember watching this the moment AOL Fanhouse put this out. Great job by Ariel, handled it like a pro. Arum would see this interview today and cringe.
Dare you to go to a random boxer and say it to his face. When you wake up, let me know how it went. I've done boxing since I was 4yo, and already by age 12 started to study other things such as kickboxing and wrestling, because a real fighter understands that a real fight has no rules. Kind of like life; life has no rules other than what you set to yourself. Ergo, please go open your mouth to a boxer. 😃✌️
This was the most racist, discriminative interview I’ve ever heard and it was hilarious. Mostly because of how things have panned out. UFC is now on top and boxing is a joke
UFC has done very well growing itself but its definitely not on top right now. Boxing has been ahead for the last few years. Bivol/Beterbiev, Spence/Crawford, Fury/Usyk, Tank/Garcia etc etc.
"Rolling around like homosexuals on the ground" WILD omg
Realist💯
He’s speaking facts tho
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Love the older interviews on this channel Ariel. Re-upload one by one. Great stuff from the O.G Helwani.
To be fair, in 2009 when I was 14 I thought MMA was gay too
we all did. Tbh actual good MMA striking is a fairly new development. Most MMA fighters still don't know to properly jab.

@@wolftickets4039he should’ve stayed in kickboxing!

@@KeyserSoze23we did not all think this😂 definitely nerd kids with sheltered childhoods, you probably werent aloud to watch wwe growing up
What a throwback 😃
And what a hater 😂
I love mma but Bob just roasted the shit out of it😂😂😂😂😂😂
TBH he didn't just make ignorant comments but hurt and he couldn't be more wrong and retarded imagine if that made you laugh 😂 😂
I wonder what Sean Strickland was doing when this interview took place? 🤣
Getting his ass tore apart by his dad 😂😂
@@HimJonUn ....
Getting paid $209 a fight in UFC 😂
Mr Arum speaks truth here.
Bob was completely correct about the Manny vs Floyd fight. It fucking sucked
Floyd Mayweather Jr cooked your brother Manny in the biggest ppv fight ever. 4.6 million
I like MMA more than boxing but this interview is classic! Full of so many gems and great trolling!
Wow respect Ariel for going head-to-head and backing up the UFC so much against a difficult and legendary character like Bob
Lmao 😂😂😂 bob is so hilarious
The man dance with no pants
In 2009 i was just out of college, an mma junkie and wanted to be Ariel helwani
Wow can't believe I've been watching Ariel Helwani interview guys for some 15 odd years now.
Yung Ariel
This shit is wild lol

Sounds like Bob's afraid of a little sword fighting.
Classic 😂 man 09 feels like yesterday. Funny I some what relate with Bob at the end but with BKFC now props to the creators and fighters getting paid well but the fights are terrible
Time for interview nr.2 Ask him about Slap Boxing and how it's taking over Boxing.
Viva Ariel
Haha the good old days. I agreed with him then. Now I love UFC. I am white. I am Bald. I do have tattoos lol.
The good ol days man 2009
Hmm. Interesting. B1wonder if bob has changed his tune. The homosexual reference was insightful.
Bob is funny af.
wu tang
Forever!
Bob arum just flamed Shakur

WOW
You're a legend Ariel, best of the best, strongest of them all. The cream of the crop. You know what I mean.
Damn... you're simping over his D quite stong. Have some self-respect. Ffs 🤦🏽.
Bob Arum - "MMA is garbage, but we're trying to duplicate it".
It’s called grappling, jujitsu and wrestling. That’s like saying that about high school wrestling

Bonafide trailblazer covering MMA
😂😂😂 Bob Arum should have crawled in hole and disappeared after this interview.
Boxing sucks

LOL, oldy but goldy. Didn’t age well though.
Haha arum wrong on so many accounts here
He's spot on about Mayweather

Arum was only 100% wrong and stupid.
