MMA - Does anyone else hate Ariel Helwani?

He interviewed Francis Ngannou. UFC 220 is this Saturday. Francis is from Africa, moved to Paris, has been homeless in the recent years, trained, is a phenom in the heavyweight division. But he's new to America, obviously.
Helwani gets Francis to say that Trump is a shame for America. This is not desired, not needed, not wanted, and not good for MMA. We don't need politics in MMA.
It's a fricking douche move to essentially trap Francis with that type of topic. He's very naive to American politics etc. Unfair for Francis and just a bitch move from Ariel, which is nothing new for him.
Helwani is always trying to make and create news stories rather than report on them.
Helwani just sucks balls. He should be drummed out of MMA circles forever. I hope Dana White pulls his credentials for good.

I want to know how a 5-11 180 pound reporter forced a 6'4 260 pound heavy weight to say something he didn't want to

Dudes probably the best at breaking scoops in the ufc but he does kinda come off as a weasel.

I always hate Ariel because he's a shite stirrer. Every interview he's a little weasel trying to push peoples buttons or to cause controversy. Then he acts like a little bitch when he gets put in a bad situation.

Why do you think Francis isn't smart enough to have an opinion?

The guy is ignorant about America and American politics.
Ignorance is different than native intelligence.

I've just had enough of Ariel. He ruins interviews and events and all things MMA that he gets affiliated with. He also tried to stir up trouble when Nate Diaz had a vape pen with CBD oil.

he took advantage of Francis and he knew he was doing it. maybe you think that's ethically and morally sound. i don't.

Why do you think he is ignorant Bc he says a statement that is of a different belief than you. That is ignorant of you to say something about someone you have never had a conversation with and no clue what their view points or knowledge is.

Again how do you take advantage of a dude 2 times your size?
Why are you treating this guy like he's some 13 year old child? He's a grown arse man with his own opinions

Ariel is a girl's name.

A Cameroonian born immigrant to America might have a pretty informed opinion on immigration from Africa to the US.

as mike tyson said. if you dont like the way he talks you can turn off your station.
helwani knows whats up. he is the biggest and best mma reporter and he knows you gotta have at least as many people to hate you as you do that like you to stay in the news.

Is that why he cried like a little baby when Dana pulled his credentials in the past? MMA wouldn't even notice Helwani's departure.
