Dana gave himself a performance bonus for playing the heel during the Presser 😂
Dana was very sincere appreciate him asking for no sympathy and actually pleading for people not to sympathize. What else could you say to show guilt.
@@sinistersageness at least he did you ignoramus fool
@@sinistersageness he just said what was politically correct not his true feelings, his true feelings were “she Fucken slapped me first” “this is the fight game, this stuff happens” but you would have to be an idiot to say that
@@sinistersageness shoot himself in the hand. Lol
@Sphincter El Stinko lmao!!! Hell no!!!! We gotta keep dragging it forever..........and ever.........
Reporter: “ what would you have done differently?”
Dana: “slapped Ariel instead”
Lmfao
And Ariel would put up a worse fight than Dana's wife
AAAAAAAHHHHHAAAAAAA LOLOLOL
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Dana vs Ariel at power slap league
The Happiest Ariel ever been.
Rather sad isn’t it? Dude is a pathetic weasel. I would rather have Dana watching my 6 than some 🐀 like Ariel.
As much as he wants to hide it
Not as happy as Dana when Ariel was finally off espn
its kinda sad.
I think you gotta give the decision to Dana, he was going forward the whole time. She was backing up. That is why you never leave it in the hand of the judges.
Underrated comment

Lmao

Ariel says “he’s living on another planet” yeah it’s called having half a billion
Don't forget about Howler Head maybe a Billie now
Yup ppl with lots of money don't live by the same rules matter fact they get to make them with other rich higher ups. RIGGED SOCIETY.
@@TheSmilodon85 and the demoralized peons tell themselves, this is just how it is
Half a billion? You CRAZY. He is a BILLIO ALREADY
Half? Bro he gets snow dropped on his house in Vegas. He mega billionaire
If Ariel truly cared about abuse and did not have a Dana agenda then fair play. But he did not ask Triple H about Vince’s situation when he interviewed him, nor was he this persistent when Jon Jones attacked his wife in Vegas 2021.
I can't lie you have a point there.
But those are also two different situations one was a company affair that was being investigated and the other was a public dispute
Vince got kicked out the company for cheating! And he covered Jon jones who hasn’t fought in years regardless of the reason. HHH didn’t slap his wife and go back to work like yea you don’t come back from this and smile.
@@theoutsiderjess4869 nah it’s not different at all, ariel has a personal hate for dana and i’m not surprised lmao
He just wants to make it about himself versus Dana and try paint himself as some super good guy when all he does is make it about himself
This man apologized and said his actions were indefensible… then immediately started acting like the media members asking questions were scumbags for suggesting that there should be real consequences
i mean this with all respect can anybody explain why its ok for his wife to hit him first ? not trying to justify his reaction i just dont think its fair to blame it all on dana tbh
It's not but Ariel hates Dana so he's not going to want to stop until his life is ruined. Activism disguised as journalism.
Exactly…
Who said it was ok for her to have done that?
@@darthchingaso3613 havnt seen anyone nearly as angry at her bro lol or anyone angry at her at all…
Ariel trying his best bless his soul 😂
Ariel wants vengeance. To pretend differently is disingenuous. If this happened to DC he would be responding differently. Ariel wants him fired. Just be honest about it.
This 100%
Yeah Ariel is far too personally attached to the situation that he shouldn't be reporting on Dana - he has far too much bias
Couldnt agree more. Funniest thing is I can take and leave Ariel normally. But he has won my respect at times with his journalism and he makes very solid points and seems to be a concious human to boot.
However since the Dana incident and Ariel actually jumping all over it as you say @trevorlee driven by vengence, i can barely stomach it without commenting!
@@jjrodriguez8147 nah dana is out of control he needs to leave! We watch the fighters not dana!
Absolutely..Ariel is like a little woun ded boy looking for revenge..its pathetic to watch. Doing himself more harm...
Dude is like an ex girlfriend who won't go away💀
Ariel wants to give Dana a 60 day vacation 😂😂
Dana - And I'd just like to say from the bottom of my heart, I'd like to take this chance to apologize… to absolutely nobody. The double slap does what he want! 👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋
🤣😂🤣😂😭😭😭😭😭😭
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂
😂😂😂
UNDERRATTED COMMENT 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Y’all gonna make ariel cry when he sees these comments😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
What I got from this is that Ariel really is not a fan of Dana. And wants him severely punished. 🤔
Frank's sarcasm to all of Ariel's questions adds humor to this rant. I do agree with Ariel's overall take but it does seem hes trying a bit too hard at nitpicking
He will always try too hard with Dana White. Plays a big part in his current fame and social status. It's his schtick
When it comes to things like this Ariel is a hack. Why do you think the Diaz brothers feel the way they do about him. They are the realest dudes in the UFC they know he is a hack
The Diaz brothers are punch drunk🤣😂😂. You haven’t herd them talk ?
Nitpicking domestic violence? You are off.
It doesn't seem to be lol. He is absolutely nitpicking.
His punishment should be to have a 30 minute interview with Ariel
Face to face as well 😂
@@dillonyoung7870 nose to nose.
They should fight id love that Arielle pack 😮💨😶🌫️
you mean with an incessantly bitter teenage ex-girlfriend in a 40-year old man's body?
Don’t get me wrong I get what Ariel is saying and I do agree with him to an extent, but it’s just hilarious that before this he was like “ don’t get me wrong I don’t think he should necessarily loose his job” ….whilst through out this whole segment pretty much hinting he wants Dana fired 😂
Right!
Dand should step down, if he really though what he did was wrong he would understand how it looks for him to stay in charge right now.
What does the UFC need Dana for?
He wasn't hinting he should lose his job. He was wanting to know if anything was going to happen. That could be a demotion/fine/suspension/or fired
I don't think he should necessarily lose his job either, but the audacity of him to think his punishment of the fact that he lives with it now is enough punishment.
Then he starts talking about his kids... Like WTF.
Pretty lame coming from someone who had a huge opinion about men striking women
It's the audacity for me....
The world doesn't work like that sir
This is a personal situation that unfortunately got aired out in public with the tape and tmz, nothing more he can say or do than he has. Ariel’s just out for blood and being a little salty
I feel the bias from Ariel for sure. He's taking weird things out of context and berating Dana for it. Its not even that serious, its between him and his wife, that's it.
No one is asking HIM to do more. That's the entire point. His bosses, especially loud mouth Ari Emmanuel, who made a big stink out of Kanye West saying words about Jewish people, should have something to say about the man who works for him repeatedly slapping his wife.
@@mmarco8787 repeatedly? He slapped her once and it was after she slapped him first, hence the radio silence from the powers that be and the MSM who have spent decades pushing the narrative that men and women should be treated exactly the same in every scenario
So a crime is not a crime if it is at home and no one in public see it? 🤔🤔🤡
@@AceRazor technically the crime in this case (if it had happened in the US) would be assault by his wife if he had chosen to press charges.. but instead he retaliated, so I guess they could both press charges against each other… otherwise no, no crime. But this happened in Mexico and I don’t know their laws.
Haha the moment i saw that presser, my very first thought was "What's Ariel gonna say about this!?"
lmaoo i was watching ariel live until that dropped watched the presser and ran back here hoping to catch the reaction
That's sad
He’s always got something to say behind the safety of his desk
Seems like you and him both need a life
Ariel been waiting for this moment his whole career
feminine vibes from ariel with these nonstop half to full hour rants about this
That's the incessantly bitter teenage ex-girlfriend in a 40-year old man's body for us week in and week out
Ariel keeps comparing this incident to quite serious crimes and demands same accountabiliti and punishment,hes bias is spiling out
Dana has disciplined MMA media so harshly that this will all go away next week.
"The punishment is I have to pretend I feel bad since it was filmed." - Dana.
How would you feel if your biggest darkest moment was ever filmed and everybody knew who you were come on that's cap.
@@TheFameinfinity491 you think this is danas darkest moment?
@@TheFameinfinity491 you'll believe anything he tells you, won't you?
@@nutmegriot209 You believe he's not a human don't you?
@@nutmegriot209 yeah he shouldn't have hit her, she hit him first though.
THIS is why Dana was on TRT and training all these years. Wasn’t for Tito, or Jones or Shamrock; was for Missus😂
Ariel trying to just stir this up way more.
Of course he is. Ariel is a joke
@@dannyg2197 don’t come at the king
Yep because he's got nothing else.
Good, it deserves to be stirred up
@@dannyg2197 why are you here then???
Ariel been waiting for this moment his whole career
Yup, and he's fumbling the bag. Ariel doesn't seem to realize that because she hit him first no one cares.
Sad isn’t it?
@@samnero387 he is trying not to shine light on that, exactly because it doesnt matter if she hit him first. He knows what he is doing
Ariel shots at Dana have powder puff impact. But he’ll prolly proclaim another meaningless 10-7 win here to make himself feel important in all this
Ariel is so stupid he doesn’t realise when Dana is saying “there’s only my side to the story” he is taking full responsibility for the incident and saying no blame on his wife.. but poor little soyboy cuck Ariel can’t comprehend that comment. 🤦♂️
Ariel keeps comparing it to a criminal but Dana didn’t commit a crime.
13:45 the slap question 😂😂
Dana shouldn’t have slapped her. She shouldn’t have slapped him. Let’s let it go
Exactly, they both were in the wrong, and they made statements already too
Ariel just has a grudge. He's also jealous of dana
I agree and you just know Ariel will have skeletons in his closet.
I'm still waiting for dana's wife to come out and apologize
Ariel is having a field day with this one😂
karma, dana always trashing ariel for nothing.
The biggest name in mixed martial arts slaps his wife on News year eve in public of course he’s gonna cover it. You dunce
R y’all serious? Absolutely nothing is happening to Dana and Ariel has been crying for 3 weeks. If Dana paid attention to Ariel the weasel he’d be laughing his ass of at how desperate and pathetic Ariel looks trying to make this into ray rice
@@RagingWB Wait for the real karma, Ariel punching his wife to next week and filmed by non other than Dana White.
His so salty it's cringe worthy on line with a Jake Paul tweet
Ariel, he says "there aren't two sides to this story" (watch the video for context) as in his wife shouldn't be at fault, only he should be at fault, you know this too, you can tell by Ariel's smirk as he's saying it, you're just trying to pick at anything to make him look even worse... I have been against Dana, but Ariel's comments the past few episodes about Dana and this situation have made me feel a little different about it all. Quite literally, the more I hear Ariel talk about this situation and against Dana, the more I find myself siding with Dana smh
It's mind blowing how the whole mood is somber with the media.
You expected it to be chirper?
@@kreed82 exactly what I was thinking lol
he wouldnt let the more agressive journalists in
@@johng7423 It's essentially the same reporters every single presser...but either way, what tough questions are you thinking these reporters should have asked? I'm curious.
Not only did he slap his wife, but he kicked her too. I notice people fail to mention that....
"I judged myself and decided I don't deserve any punishment" - Dana, the wife slapper, White
Ohh cares he slapped his wife big deal so what
What's his wife's label? The husband slapper? Nobody has said a word about that drunk woman slapping him first.
I swear you guys are more hurt than his wife. She slapped him and he slapped her. They've been together for nearly 30yrs and have been friends for 40yrs
TT Sobreiro best comment ever.
@@zach22russell so it's just not a big deal when dana does it eh. Give it a break man
Dana: "Nobody fires back more than I do." yikes
Journo: "What would you do differently?".
Dana: "I'd have smacked her at home!"
I love Ariel but he’s mad that most of the the fans forgive Dana 😂. He was so happy to finally have a reason to be against Dana
I understand Ariel but it's a bloody slap it's not like he Chris Brown bashed the living crap out of her or something some people are so soft
True
@@divinewolf5746 Lol did you see Jon Jones wife? Stop it. Dana was hit first and barely touched her in return. Not even comparable
@@kiwitalkspodcast dummy we dont know what else dana has done off camera, the brown stuff never was on camera
@@divinewolf5746 bro Jon Jones 10-7 his wife it's really different than the counter slap
Did Dana just compare a worldwide Covid pandemic to slapping his wife? 😂
Well both have been blown out of proportion ^
The slap is def not that bad
@@MancHeisenberg 😂
Yes he did bro! What a mental world! And it's very telling that he didn't apologise to his wife, just a nutty press conference really and zero punishment dished out, so the best outcome possible for Dana!! He is just treated completly different publicly and by many fans too.
@@thefishingfool3397 your dad def abused your mom huh
I mean.. Dana literally let Jones stay in the ufc after assaulting his wife, and Chael, and Greg Hardy… they didn’t really suffer any consequences either so I’m not surprised that the only punishment he see is “living with it”
Dana is a master at doublespeak. The media around him just gobbles it up!
The media can’t say anything or they’ll get banned like Ariel
That's the language of the free masons
Just imagine Ariel given a front seat at presses going forward ....oh my goodness stress levels out of the roof, you just shortened Dana's life from 10 to 2 years 😔
Dana would literally be as red as this emoji 😡
That's what Ariel wants. That's why he's not happy with anything lol
Then add as main event weigh-in guests the likes of Jake Paul and Oscar De La Hoya RIP boss ...no man I wouldn't wish that on poor Dana
You are seriously overestimating the affect Ariel has on Dana White...In one corner, you have a hack, You Tube "journalist" who burned the very guy who helped build him, and in the other, you have a man who essentially bult the UFC from nothing and is worth a half a billion dollars.
10.4***
Ariel once again crying that life isn't fair and some people enjoy far more privilege than others. News at 11.
Better than saying zip like a coward
I remember my ex punched me in me gut when I was an 90 min late once to meet her for a lunch date and made her wait for me. I was at the gym and got carried away with my workout and totally lost track of time. She played it off that I was a big muscular guy and can take it. I told her doesn’t make it difference you don’t ever put your hands on me. If I did that to her it would be I am a POS abuser. Long story short that relationship didn’t last lol
….. she hit him? Why is this a big deal? She felt very comfortable hitting him. Self defense.
its so crazy to me for people to want so much blood for something that has ZERO effect on them... its crazy
That's the incessantly bitter teenage ex-girlfriend in a 40-year old man's body for us
It's called accountability...professionalism.... plenty of people in the world (presidents and CEOs of other companies, politicians) would lose their jobs over this... yet, here, we have the Fuhrer of MMA declaring that his punishment should be saying he feels bad. Even the company (whom he works for as an employee) shows us that Dana is the UFC because he gets to sit there and do this 10 minute apology and walk out of there like nothing happened. When you're the public face of something, you need to have higher standards than average joe private citizen.
@@BronzeBullBalls lmao oh my sweet summer child. You think people in power like Dana actually get held accountable for anything?
A public figure in the 24 news cycle internet age is why this is a story.
Black figures go through this everday funny how you only recognize it now that it involves a white.
“Nobody fires back more than I do” 😂
Yea lol he should’ve chose some better words. 😂
This man loved seeing that vid and spreading it more and more.
The slap league question 🤣
"The people are saying" is a shield used in all types of journalism. It's not just a fault with the ufc. Jornalists have always fallen behind it.
Ariel has used it too.
Yeah. It’s right up there with “they.”
It’s also easily remedied by just saying “many people” instead of “the people.” The former is factually true, in almost every scenario. The latter is factually inaccurate, and comes with connotations that are harmful and dangerous.
okay Ariel
@@suedunham1087 It's true. It's something mentally weak people say.
"I know it's hard to face us all"🤣🤣🤣 Dana be like: "as hard as eating cheesecake "
😂
Ariel asked his crew member if pausing the video is annoying. They replied "no" with a lot of uncertainty and trepidation. Ariel is the real bully. He's a monster.
Yeah ever since they sided with Danis over him, they've been grovelling and attempting to repair whatever damage that did to Ariels system. Ariels never ever looked as bad as last two weeks.. 2023 baby let's go
Aerial is the most emotional male I’ve ever seen🤣
it's not like ariel was going to say anything good about dana, he hates dana, so he is the definition of being bias
Yep, he is letting it be too personal.
You’re right he should’ve complimented Dana’s swift slap for how good it was.. 🤦🏻
You want to hear good. Let me do it for you, he won 2nd and 3rd round after getting beat up in round 1. Comback of the year nomination for sure.
he literally acknowledges anything good that dana does as well. like even too much for my taste, but the man's got actual principles. he would absolutely be right to be more biased imo
@@mohamedalahmadani5174 I am not condoning what dana did, but women have been fighting for equal rights that doesn't give them the right to smack a man if one person has to pay the price for hitting the other one should as well!
Ariel cut him deep with the quote “what will your kids think of you”
His kids think Ariel is a weasle
@@iceKOId 😂😂😂
What will the kids think of the mother?
@@bubbakushii she can be a top contender in the power slap league
@@iceKOId 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Dana owned up to it and made no excuses for it. Ariel needs to let this go. You can tell Ariel WANTS this to be a bigger issue than it is based on his tone
No, Dana wanted it to be a big thing before he did this and said fighters would have been let go. Now he isn’t going out himself. There should be more on it and Ariel is right to address it
If you don’t see that this has nothing to do with morality and is 100% fully Ariel just being spiteful then you are very very naive.
@@iceman463864 certainly not 100%. Talk about being naive.
@@Herodus214 No he didn't. The fact you have to make things up to prove your point shows you don't have a point.
@@Herodus214 No it 100% is. He literally handled this as best he could and Ariel was picking apart everything because unless Dana gets fired or steps down he won't be happy.
He said no one is coming back from it yet Jon Jones is getting ready to fight and Ariel has had 0 problems with it. Again this is just Ariel pursuing a personal issue and trying to make a big deal out of it.
Shortsighted take and wrong but w/e
Jeez. Ariel really acting like this dude committed a full blown crime and should be doing jail time, sheesh
Uhhh…he should have been?
Lol Ariel’s a fucn goof. At no point does he mention his wife hit em first. At least acknowledge it
Beating your wife is a crime tho lol he could’ve been booked for a misdemeanor if his wife reported it. Doesn’t matter if it’s a slap, he’d get booked for it especially in Nevada lol
It is a crime to assault a woman mate
@@omgeoh they both can be? She initiated the slap. Why are you seeing it as if he’s only one that’s wrong?
“Nobody’s more free speech than me!” 🤣
Severely under-rated comment.
Hey, is that a Charvel DK24 HSS in your profile photo?
What?? He let's them say whatever they want.
Just because they don't fight much after that or get released has absolutely NOTHING to do with them speaking out lol
Damn Ariel has a bunch of alt accounts
@@SanyamJain1989 hell yea it is.
Dana does live on another planet Ariel...all of the press ask the same bs questions and literally get nervous talking to him...we need someone like you in there asking the right questions
This was a personal matter between Dana and his wife, that was caught on video. It had to be pushed into the public eye because of his public status. Does this mean he should lose everything he has worked for because of a family matter. Should his family have to take on more repercussions from outside sources? It's a mistake that he adamantly stated was wrong, and under no circumstances should this take place. Comparing this to a drunk driver harming someone in my opinion is just ridiculous.
I know Ariel hates Dana and rightfully so but to say he is a deterrent to the company is laughable. He is a huge part of UFC and it would be a horrible hit to lose him.
Ariel been guided by his personal feelings, even comparing the incident to drunk driving
Dana's bouncing back and Ariel can't stand it 🤣🤣🤣
Nah dana will be gone by the end of the year you can't come back from this 😬
His slap league is currently advertising to start next Wed. Ariel gonna go apeshit
@@o1h823 wanna bet?
@@o1h823 😂😂😂 it's already over. Ariel's the only one still harping on about it and he has zero impact on Dana's career.
I'm far from defending Dana. But where's the outrage for his wife? She not only struck first, but that's assault. Dana said, "This is a private matter that was done in public". That sounds like this isn't the first time this has happened and how comfortable she looked in the video hitting him, with him doing it in return, doubt this is a first. Both need to be accountable. They don't owe us an apology or explanation, but it's wrong on both their ends. I hate that they're making her out to be the full-out victim and he's a monster.
Come on Ariel. He apologized. Said he was wrong, no excuses. But having said that. His wife hit him first. Not saying it's right but could you imagine if she didn't hit him first and he just slapped her. It would be a much bigger thing than it is.
And people comparing Dana to Jon Jones and other fighters who have beat the hell out of women to the point that the women are bleeding and have to go to the hospital.
Whats is up with you wife slapping defenders? He said dont defend me, yet here you are.
The first reporter gave him the biggest out of his career and instead of saying he wouldn’t of hit his wife that night he said I wouldn’t of went out for new years 😂
Subconsciously he knows it was the first time publicly but not the first time he slapped her privately.
Let the dude be. He's owned it 100% but people won't give it a rest.
It’s because no one thinks this is a mental illness.
Witness what domestic abuse really looks like? This isn’t it. He got slapped, he slapped back, then knew he effed up because it was a woman.
And as self-righteous as we all think we are? Not one of us guarantee how that would have been.
Well, his wife would’ve still hit him if they went out. So…….
@@Hi-NuAetherling you and no one else has any idea if that’s true
Just link me to the part where Ariel cries and makes it about himself
In a way, the whole episode is about Ariel.
The whole video for that mate all he does is make it all about him
🤣🤣🤣
That's the incessantly bitter teenage ex-girlfriend in a 40-year old man's body for us week in and week out..
Perfectly said at the end "even if he was punished, hed also still have to live with those things" lol. Guy gave himself the punishment of nothing lol
The ego on this guy. To think that his punishment is his own self disappointment. Imagine if the judicial system worked that way. Do you feel sorry or upset? Then that is punishment enough. What a joke.
Dan Hardy gets fired for yelling at a Woman, Dana doesn't even get a slap on the hand
I ultimately agree with Ariel’s points. But for the life of me I do not think this was done out of fair conscience from Ariel and he was going to nitpick anything Dana said even if Dana said the things Ariel would like him to say.
You can actually see Ariel searching his Rolodex mind for Dana criticism when Dana completely owns up to what he did and condemns the people defending him.
Ariel is being a douche
If it was any fighter or person in UFC he would be fired but since it’s Dana he ain’t getting fired.
Yes, Dana does the right thing and it's still the wrong thing for manboy Ariel.
I agree with you. I was raised that you never hit a woman. I think dana has to face some kind of tangible repercussions. That being said, if Dana's wife isn't divorcing him and agreeing that it was a bad moment that they are going to work through then how can I be more outraged than her? It's such a difficult situation. Dana should step away and donate earnings to a charity that helps domestic abuse victims AT THE VERY LEAST
It will never be enough for Ariel. Never.
True but I wouldn't blame him
Ariel doesn’t actually care about domestic violence. Don’t you remember how much he sucked up to triple H when he interviewed him and refused to cover the Vince McMahon situation
I'm happy people are actually commenting it on this video, I thought that last week when he done his whole dramatic walk off thing that he was already doing too much
@@TheOne-uc9rz it's all about Ariel. His ego's got the better of him.
You’re crying more than Ariel even did lol
If he felt comfortable to do that in public, what the hell is he doing to her at home?!
MESSAGE!
Or what is she doing to him? There's two sides, and regardless of what anyone says. No one should be hitting anyone in a relationship,end of story.
@@featheredindian she tried to walk away Nd he grabbed her hand forcefully, I believe in the right to self defense, suit yourself
Good point!
Exactly…
No way it never happened before lol. You don't just slap your wife like that when your out after 20 years.
Dana is playing it smart here and severely distancing himself by referring to the the "thing". He doesn't say hit, slap, assault, or anything like it ONCE. He frames it as an unfortunate situation he was a part of that he doesn't have to face actual consequences other than to his reputation.
he's a promoter.. a good one.. with a huge ego. his bullshitting skills will always be sharp
🧏🏽♂️
Dana can handle 16 times the pressure that I can.
But he's human after all. 35 consecutive sell-outs aside.
Hope WME feels the same way.
💯
Yeah it's a classic tack tick. Loads of gaslighters do this sort of thing
Was waiting for your take on that interview 😂😂😂
He owned up to it and apologised Ariel is just dragging it out at this point because Dana hates him haha
Dana's been dragging out his hatred for Ariel for god knows how long?
Man homie mom wrote a book on him being a piece of 💩. I don’t care what anyone says, if his mom says he sucks as a person that’s all I need. 🤨
why is no one asking what the slap was for? I'm curious. It seems crazy to me that no one is asking.
@@Sasquatch10 dana isn't really trying to mask it while ariel is playing a victim
I got in trouble in school all the time and they would ask me “what do you think your punishment should be”
Surprised Ariel didn’t sneak in with a fake costume and started asking Dana questions
Would've been legendary but no disguise can hide the nose 👃 🥸 🤣🤣🤣 Ariel the 🐐
Lmao
Looking the same in this disguise 🥸
Not really he's a coward he would never do such thing
He puts on a wig and is like "this is ...uhh... Mariel.. I've got a few questions"
Ariel, the consequences for domestic violence are handled by the authorities. Neither him nor his wife who instigated the situation were charged with any crime. The average human being that's involved with a domestic situation regardless of which side they're on doesn't get fired from their job, if there's no criminal element involved.
Well said, brother.
Ariel will be judge jury and executioner on this matter, Michael, and he will NOT be told otherwise.
Ariel is just trying to make it bigger than what it is for personal reasons. Kind of a scumbag move. I’d argue even worse than what Dana did. If a vulture was a human
@@TheSakufighter Lets not get carried away here, mate
@@romanrebryk9251, bro my girl slap me. I might have to tap her back. Especially if I’m drunk af. But, Dana did slap fire out of shawty 😂😂
Dana vs Ariel has to be biggest and most personal feud in mma history.
Normally Ariel is interesting for a take but they paused it so much they jumped to conclusions before hearing everything he said and then acted like they didn’t know what he was saying.
I know he doesn’t like Dana but they were reaching a bit
Ye bad video tbf they were going yo conclusions before he finished some of his sentences xd,and when they actually listen they say i think that wasnt the question. Like bruh obv a hater but chill damn
Guy who has never seen a reaction video has spoken.
You got athletes, people in the public eye that have lost their career over domestic violence and Dana gets to say "this is my thing"
It isn’t fair. I agree.
But I wish we could live in a society where people are still allowed to work when they make mistakes in their personal lives.
If they break the law, they should be prosecuted. But I don’t think they should always lose their ability to earn a living. 🤷♂️
Cmon man. You really wanna be this disingenuous?
People who lost their career usually beat up their wife, unprovoked, in a chargeable offence, which their wife went to police about, and the wife sustained injuries.
Jon Jones isn’t even kicked out and he beat his wife in front of children, left her with a split lit and swollen eye, was charged, his wife left him, and police came, unprovoked,
In this case dana is slapped by his wife, and slaps her back. No injuries, no crime, no police, wife is fine.
I mean cmonnnnn do you actually believe what you wrote or just hate Dana?
Show me a domestic violence incident this tame that resulted in severe punishment.
It his thing he built it
What athlete has lost their career for slapping their wife ??
Well what saving dana white is he was hit firat
I've heard it mentioned before about "Dana White privilege" but I never assumed it applied to his personal conduct absolutely. For a dude that is being so apparently self aware of his actions, he actually falls tone deaf authentically. The mea culpa performance however, was masterful.
He's quite the charismatic piece of crap there's no denying that
If you’re going to punish Dana then you have to punish his wife for instigating the violence. What punishment should they receive then?
I love how yall come on the internet to determine someone's sincerity
@@chrisherrera1106 😂
If he wants to set an example, he should resign. He already acknowledged, and everyone posting here have confirmed - you cannot punish him financially. Maybe the women's groups will turn up the heat and force endeavor to make a move. I doubt it though.
Course he wants the reporters to focus on the fighters and not him. Who wouldn’t !
the thing is, for him to the type of consequence Ariel is referring to, he’s wife would have to press charges against him! And that’s the only reason why John Jones got arrested! other than that… I don’t think a 60 days suspension can do anything for this situation! maybe that would be a way to humble himself, idk!
Lol imagine one of their fighters coming out and actually saying what they really think without no repercussions👌.
poirier comes close to that and as a consequence hes lower than a snakes belly in Dana's mind
Exactly what i was thinking when he said fighters are free to say what they want.. i also think they will be stopped from talking to Ariel at all by the end of the year💯
They do...all the time....
Actually a number of fighters have already criticized him. See Dustin Poirier's statement.
@@vangeghbeghabegha68 that was a soft ball answer tho.
Imagine getting into trouble for stealing someone's stuff and telling that person you stealing it was punishment enough 😂🤣
Imagine trying to use a false equivalency to not make a point
Well ..... theft and violence are completely different things..
Imagine getting in trouble for actively getting back what was stolen from you.
Seriously, anyone who like this comment must still be in middle school
@@heavyrules6699 wait... What?
Not at one point in this whole video did Ariel stop and acknowledge that Dana's own wife is asking for the situation to be let go.
Ariel has made countless (albeit spot on) points about Dana not truly being held accountable but if the victim of the situation is saying let's move on.
Then why aren't we? At rhe end of the day. It's not Ariels business. It's not our business. It's nobody's business but Dana and his wife and his wife is saying shut up about it. All punishment goes out the window ehen the victim themselves is saying they don't want there to be any. Not to mention the media constantly talking about. I would absolutely hate for the entire world to dig up in my business like this but that's Ariel for you. Always has to cover the most irrelevant part of MMA: The Drama.
I am a former prosecutor. And the most frustrating part of my job was domestic violence and unwillingness of victims to stand up against it and testify. Many if not most were afraid or embarrassed to testify. You think this was an isolated incident? If it was, it’s unusual. It’s almost never isolated. The problem is empowerment. When nothing happens to guys like White, it normalizes domestic violence. Just look at the comments in any discussion of it. A fair percentage either blames his wife or says it’s nobody’s business but the family’s.
@@914Rocky women deserve beatings when they step outta line
@@914Rocky so as a prosecutor, what punishment would you give Dana’s wife for slapping him first?
@@gibgibbo5738 Hopefully you just have a bad sense of humor.
@@914Rocky she slapped him first I woulda punched her instead shown her man power
Ariel got his Christmas present late 😂😂😂
Obvious point here being if anyone else did the same thing, they'd be fired and cancelled immediately 🤨
Yeah well when you’re as successful as Dana and have changed so many people lives you get some leeway plus it wasn’t bad at all people just wanna pull down successful people
@@Realfighter92 some people might want to pull down a successful man but there is also people who can't get their head round a man who assaulted a woman in public not facing consequences.
@@LienLeon he didn’t even commit a crime so why do you want him to face consequences? Doesn’t even make sense.
The only person who has a right to ask for them is his wife, or Dana could charge his wife with assault,
@@Realfighter92 he's a public figure. He is the figure head of the UFC. People are entitled to expect him to face consequences.
He might not have been charged with a crime but you are just playing on technicalities. He slapped a woman. Twice. And that's just what is recorded.
@@LienLeon Your last sentence means nothing, I guess Leon edwards could be a serial killer too, who cares, unproven assumptions have no place in this discussion.
Again, he doesn’t need to face consequences as he didn’t break any law, it’s not a technicality it’s straight up self defence. His wife doesn’t care so why do you?
He literally hasn’t committed a crime so you wanted him punished?
Dana White in 2014: "There's no coming back from it"
Dana White in 2023: Coming straight back and promoting the trashy Dana White Power Slap League and random Apex fight cards no-one cares about like nothing happened.
he actually said there's no coming back from it at this presser
Isn't Jon Jones making his heavyweight debut this year? 🤔
He slapped his wife after she slapped him first. Stop trying to blow it all out of proportion like the media is. I wonder what kind of things you have done in your life that you wouldn't want to be made public. Show me a human and I'll show you a hypocrite.
He’s doing his job for the benefits of his employees, He doesn’t have to work. You gotta respect that!
@@AjCxOfficial I respect the mental gynmastics you've had to use to get to that conclusion.
U are a great journalist . i wish u could be in there able to ask the real questions man .
Well said, as usual.
Man, got to admit, Ariel ability to twist any Dana words is amazing, the guy is a born lawyer!
Yeah, he’s disgusting.
I bet that MMAfighting studio wreaks of soy
Cunning Jewish rattt
Ariel a professional victim
@@beetlejews Classic Judaic technique
Not defending Dana, but what does Ariel want him to say… he quits UFC? Outside of legal action, ( doesn’t appear that’s happening) what does he expect?
Ariel wants to take out Dana 😂
Does anyone else not find it weird that he keeps referring to his wife as "her" and "she" and won't even say her name. Feels like he's well pissed with her. For me I can tell he has serious resentment towards her
DANA SELLING WOLF TICKETS FOR SURE AND EVERYONE FELL FOR IT 😂😭
Dana living rent free in Ariel's head lol 🤡
Dana is done 😂
Dana single handily burnt bridges and made Ariell an outsider lookin in. Ariel has been waiting, hoping, praying for something like this so he can be relevant within ufc
@@o1h823 How? Literally nothing happened to him
@@track-lash3337 Ariel has already evolved or rather been recognized as bigger then a UFC mock press conference. Showtime, boxing, and able to bring eyes and fans to darts of all things. Renaissance man, maybe a midas touche. Where are you relevant?
Ariel with a 10-8 on every segment lately :D more like the other way around
Dana's taken accountability and asked others not to defend him. What more does he specifically need to do?
Why isnt Dana arrested like other men who slaps their wife? Thats a through and through domestic violence case. Guys have been to jail for grabbing their wives (causing pain to their arms) or pushing/shoving, let alone slapping their wives face.
Step down from the UFC take some time off. Take a leave of absence with no pay for significant time.
Community service. There are plenty of options.
@@flyguy7825 like he said in the interview that hurts the company more than him. If the are gonna suspend him they might as well replace him. Dana doesnt need the ufc paycheck and making him step back is just a vacation.
@@rabbithole8858wtf bro ain’t no convict💀
"I slap my wife and the most important is my kids, who know everything"
Pile of nonsense.
Good job, good react !
