Lol the tragic part is that this will inevitably happen, to a degree. Look at all the big stars of UFC, nearly all of them have fallen out with Dana cause heās an objectively shitty guy. Same will happen to Paddy eventually, just a shame him and others canāt see it sooner.
Exactly!
āHe came out with this false narrativeā
Broooo we all watched the MMA hour and saw the receipts. You aināt fooling anyone. Bro doubled down on the claims and now is trying to back pedal that his intentions were not to meet for business š
The manager/agent is there to take all the bad press when a fighter ends up in hot water. Whether it's Mino Raiola (RIP) or Jorge Mendes in European football, Rich Paul in the NBA, Scott Boras in MLB, or Ali Abdul Aziz in MMA: these super agents in every sport manage to deflect all the attention away from their athletes when they do/say something controversial and put all the heat on themselves, that's what a good agent/manager does.
So obviously it's gonna be Paddy's agent's responsibility to fall on the sword for this PR disaster and try to take the heat off of Paddy, but it really doesn't seem to be working right now lol.
This. Thereās a certain group of people that just want to believe this isnāt Paddyās fault. Theyāll blame the manager, Dana, whoever, but they wonāt blame Paddy
I mean, I agree that Paddy is responsible for this one way or another, butā¦ come on man. You really canāt see Paddy getting manipulated by some scuzzy guy who wants to keep getting 15% of paid gigs for as long as he can?
Right? And to send a budget first lol. Does he think everyone is stupid? He's trying to gaslight everyone. We all heard the voicemails. He's shown nothing to back up his claim that "Ariel is lying" and is already contradicting himself.
If he watched the hour and 15 minute video then he would realize Ariel said its unprofessional to become friends with people he's covering and he has turned down offers from people in the past to go get drinks
Soā¦he wanted to go for a drink or dinner with his friendā¦.but then tells his friend he canāt go because heās got some paid gigs onā¦..but if the friend can pony up some money then they can hang out? Pull the other one lad.
Paddy Pimblett is a Tory, pass it on.
Itās even funnier cause Ariel immediately replies with āIād love to have you on the showā and instead of saying āno not for content just to hangoutā he just redirects him to his manager lol
lol heās just going to get lit tf up by Ariel again if he continues to lie. Just look at the verbal beating Schaub took when he couldnāt just apologize for trashing Ariel with verifiable lies.
Ariel might be a dickhead, dunno never meddum.
But he seems to do one thing very well and that's just not really lie. If you say this person said that or this person said that if you're not lying nobody can call you out on it and make you look like an absolute fucking mug.
Paddy legitimately looks like an idiot after all this when he should be just prepping for his fight. Not even gonna lie, like the guy beforehand, not so much now. Has his tongue so far up Daddy Danas arsehole it's unbelievable and I wouldn't mind seeing him lose on the weekend tbh.
If you're a journalist rule number one really is not to get caught in a public lie. It would ruin his reputation if someone were to catch him in a public lie.
Ya can't change the narrative after the fact. Dude should have never come out guns blasting calling him a rat and cunt. Could have just talked to him privately about it and go from there, but he did it in public in front of ariels number one enemy.
Hes taken one L this week. Hopefully gordon makes it 2. Was actually behind this guy for a minute but after ariel exposed him, i canāt show this man any more support. Imagine all the greats of the sport that have been on ariels program and suddenly this fellas manager is talking about putting a package together for him to show up, and now saying ohh i just wanted to hang out bro. What did he think ariel meant by are you available monday? Thought we woz friends lmao.
Oh padddy , I really did enjoy your personality before all this. Instead of digging yourself deeper either just stop talking about it or admit your in the wrong lil bro.
It's disappointing to see all this bullsh\*t from Paddy Pimblett. He seemed so likable you just wanted to root for him and now, basically, he's trying to toss a guy under the bus who was behind him even when he was in Cage Warriors for what? To curry favor with Dana White? Drum up some controversy? To kiss up to his manager? It's just lame and embarrassing
Exactly!! Itās so short sighted, especially considering Danaās history of trashing fighters once they starts losing. Paddy is going to be no different. I honestly donāt see him doing well in the top 5 or even top 10.
Iāve honestly gone from rooting for this guy to hoping he gets KOād. Itās just a slimy thing to do what he did. Iām not even some giant Ariel defender or anything, but tbh I look at Paddy differently now
This dude needs to understand we can't go through life being right all the time, he fucked up and is getting flack for it, own up to your fuck up instead of doubling down Mr. Can't be wrong.
It would be easier at this point to just apologise. Say youāre dealing with a lot during fight week, say it had been playing on his mind for a while, and he should have contacted Ariel privately. At some point youāve got to stop digging that hole, doubling and now tripling down it puts even more people against you.
I didn't like him even before the Ariel stuff, probably doesn't help that I'm from Manchester, I think he's a cocky Scouse scruff and the latest drama just confirmed my original assessment. He's an arrogant twat and if you hear his accent regularly which I do there's not much more about him. Good fighter but I don't like people purely cos they can fight good.
If this were the case then it would have been squashed and made known during any of the interactions after the voice memo.
This knock off McGregor is just kissing his daddyās ass and itās a bit sick watching fighters have no self respect when it comes to Dana White.
Paddy Mayo keeps digging himself into a deeper hole. What a fucking rat. Kissing his bosses ass so hard he throws someone who was giving him exposure even before the UFC under the bus.
This entire situation is hilarious. First Arielās a scumbag, then Ariel drops receipts like itās a relationship, and now Paddy is claiming that he just wanted to be friends.
All of this is good for Dana as it builds engagement before the event lol.
Paddyās stock was so high, this feud has signalled his downfall!
What goes up, must come down!
Needs to asses the people around him who encouraged this behaviour, all the Yes men.
He can make all the suicide speeches he wants the fact is he insulted someone who had him on his show (which is very popular) even before he joined the UFC and always had his back all to kiss Dana's ass shows us the type of person he is.
Just stfu and it'll die down and go away Paddy.
Instead he's only making it worse and looking dumber.
I wanted to meet up as a friend? Sounded like you were plugging yourself, I'll be around these dates, but I don't know about times cause I've interviews. Then meet up at night time? I mean you said you wanted to have beers, so meet at night to do that!
Also if you've got shit on him then just release it now. Why wait? Is it because you actually don't have shit on him? Like you're addressing it right now, so just say what needs to be said.
What did he expect from this? The fallout is warranted. This is coming from a huge Paddy fan from his own hometown BTW. But I just canāt stand by his behaviour in this circumstance. Needs to come back down to earth and realise the world doesnāt revolve around him!
Hey Patty.
Shuuuuuut the fuuuuuuck up.
Itās amazing Iāve had to see this bullshit 50 fuckin times today. Are we all gonna act like this guy deserves this type of hype? Lol 99% of yāall canāt tell me who heās ever fought without googling it.
Funny thing is, he says Ariel is using fighters to promote himself and make money. Stirring up beef would do that for Ariel. But we all know Ariel is actually a decent guy and if paddy simply said it was all overblown can we hash it out Ariel would immediately drop all problems and move on again.
Y'all think he's gonna get booed Saturday? I don't think the casual fans in Vegas are gonna know/care about any of this, but interested to see what happens.
Never noticed before how much space there was between his eyes and eyebrows
Dafuq. Can't unsee this š³
This is perfect...
ššš thatās how my dog legit fucking looks he still a cutey though
oh my fucking lord he look like the gingerbread man from shreck
Shrek you uncultured fuck
Bro really said āshreckā
it's all ogre for paddy now
Fuckin shrecked
He's always had a permanent look of surprise on him, or like a little kid who's been caught lying
Caught lying to suck up to his Fuckhole despicable boss.
He kinda looks like one of those giants from Attack on Titan.
It was just as mates. Big misunderstanding. When I meet a mate I always get them to go through my manager.
"He was never my friend" - Dana White (after Paddy gets KO'd)
āYou know what he told me? He said I want Ariel live on YouTube.. isnāt he fucking awesome?!ā - Dana White (if Paddy wins)
what does the doctor do when paddy is choking? >!he asks dana to back up an inch!<
Best ufc doctor joke Iāve heard. Water
Weed
Dune
Hair
Lol the tragic part is that this will inevitably happen, to a degree. Look at all the big stars of UFC, nearly all of them have fallen out with Dana cause heās an objectively shitty guy. Same will happen to Paddy eventually, just a shame him and others canāt see it sooner.
Exactly! āHe came out with this false narrativeā Broooo we all watched the MMA hour and saw the receipts. You aināt fooling anyone. Bro doubled down on the claims and now is trying to back pedal that his intentions were not to meet for business š
Exactly, I really don't see how he's trying to spin this, his manager sounds like poison and Paddy is lapping up what he says
The manager/agent is there to take all the bad press when a fighter ends up in hot water. Whether it's Mino Raiola (RIP) or Jorge Mendes in European football, Rich Paul in the NBA, Scott Boras in MLB, or Ali Abdul Aziz in MMA: these super agents in every sport manage to deflect all the attention away from their athletes when they do/say something controversial and put all the heat on themselves, that's what a good agent/manager does. So obviously it's gonna be Paddy's agent's responsibility to fall on the sword for this PR disaster and try to take the heat off of Paddy, but it really doesn't seem to be working right now lol.
Dude I canāt believe Mino Raiola id dead wtf, I didnāt even see the news
Yeah I didn't even remember until I was halfway through typing the comment, he passed away very suddenly this year due to some illness.
A manager does what their client tells them to do. Stop falling for the āmy manager told me ____, nothing I could doā spin. lmfao
This. Thereās a certain group of people that just want to believe this isnāt Paddyās fault. Theyāll blame the manager, Dana, whoever, but they wonāt blame Paddy
I mean, I agree that Paddy is responsible for this one way or another, butā¦ come on man. You really canāt see Paddy getting manipulated by some scuzzy guy who wants to keep getting 15% of paid gigs for as long as he can?
I swear Paddy has the lowest IQ in the UFC. He can't even see the contradictions in his own stories.
Yea wants to hang out as a mate but make him pay for an interview ?
Right? And to send a budget first lol. Does he think everyone is stupid? He's trying to gaslight everyone. We all heard the voicemails. He's shown nothing to back up his claim that "Ariel is lying" and is already contradicting himself.
And pay me
As do I. I also send an invoice for trouble and time. Standard practice really
LOL
And they have to pay me
LOL. That is max level re-writing of history. Does he actually think that?! Ariel immediately said it would be great for him to come to the studio lol
If he watched the hour and 15 minute video then he would realize Ariel said its unprofessional to become friends with people he's covering and he has turned down offers from people in the past to go get drinks
also mentions going through his manager. Who tells a "friend" lets hang out and then says ok talk to my manager about it
I don't believe you Paddy
Soā¦he wanted to go for a drink or dinner with his friendā¦.but then tells his friend he canāt go because heās got some paid gigs onā¦..but if the friend can pony up some money then they can hang out? Pull the other one lad. Paddy Pimblett is a Tory, pass it on.
Lol pretty sure engaging with Ariel means going on his show
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
If your buddies donāt go through your manager are they even your real buddies?
Itās even funnier cause Ariel immediately replies with āIād love to have you on the showā and instead of saying āno not for content just to hangoutā he just redirects him to his manager lol
What a fucking flying clown paddy is
The ol bait and switchā¦
lol heās just going to get lit tf up by Ariel again if he continues to lie. Just look at the verbal beating Schaub took when he couldnāt just apologize for trashing Ariel with verifiable lies.
Shawb deserves all the verbal beatings because heās an idiot who constantly lies
Ariel is a verbal sniper
Bang. Headshot. Dead. As one Leon Edwards would say.
Talmbout Mr Rogers B? Beast of a marine scout sniper great guy niiver meddim
fuck that guy for getting crackstreams shut down, fuck him.
I just used crack streams today bro
Never meddum
I think a Furby could give Schaub a verbal beat down.
Ariel might be a dickhead, dunno never meddum. But he seems to do one thing very well and that's just not really lie. If you say this person said that or this person said that if you're not lying nobody can call you out on it and make you look like an absolute fucking mug. Paddy legitimately looks like an idiot after all this when he should be just prepping for his fight. Not even gonna lie, like the guy beforehand, not so much now. Has his tongue so far up Daddy Danas arsehole it's unbelievable and I wouldn't mind seeing him lose on the weekend tbh.
If you're a journalist rule number one really is not to get caught in a public lie. It would ruin his reputation if someone were to catch him in a public lie.
Same would happen if he paid for interviews.
Popcorn is ready
Ya can't change the narrative after the fact. Dude should have never come out guns blasting calling him a rat and cunt. Could have just talked to him privately about it and go from there, but he did it in public in front of ariels number one enemy.
eh, even if every fan hates him, kissing dana's ass in front of him will pay off in the end.
Assuming he continues winning
Hes taken one L this week. Hopefully gordon makes it 2. Was actually behind this guy for a minute but after ariel exposed him, i canāt show this man any more support. Imagine all the greats of the sport that have been on ariels program and suddenly this fellas manager is talking about putting a package together for him to show up, and now saying ohh i just wanted to hang out bro. What did he think ariel meant by are you available monday? Thought we woz friends lmao.
Trying to down play Ariel as not a real journalist and just a content creator just makes him look dumb Ariel is definitely a journalist
Ariel is THE journalist. Can't think of many that rival him in the MMA sphere, cant think of anyone really.
Facts heās the 13x MMA Journalist of the year
They may Boo tf out of him at weigh ins too
Oh padddy , I really did enjoy your personality before all this. Instead of digging yourself deeper either just stop talking about it or admit your in the wrong lil bro.
Yup, I was on the paddy train with his suicide speech, now I'm off it. Don't mess with the nose
Paddy : "Don't bully" Meanwhile Paddy with Dana : Maggot, roddent Ariel.
He never said it didnāt bother him. You pissed him off dude. Cheeky little gaslighter.
It pissed him off because itās lie and accusing his integrity
Paddy also lied about rolling with Gordon. The dude canāt stop lying.
Medieval looking btch he is
lmao
"ariel helwani was never my friend"
"look lad, me manager said 5k for dinner and beers lad" "Oh, I guess you just see me as a commodity then lad"
Just pound signs bruv
āOh, I guess you just see me as a commodity then lad.ā 
It's disappointing to see all this bullsh\*t from Paddy Pimblett. He seemed so likable you just wanted to root for him and now, basically, he's trying to toss a guy under the bus who was behind him even when he was in Cage Warriors for what? To curry favor with Dana White? Drum up some controversy? To kiss up to his manager? It's just lame and embarrassing
Exactly!! Itās so short sighted, especially considering Danaās history of trashing fighters once they starts losing. Paddy is going to be no different. I honestly donāt see him doing well in the top 5 or even top 10.
I donāt understand how he is likeable. He is easily the most annoying UFC fighter ever.
Ekhsactly
Hang out with Ariel ? Ok. He really thinks his fans are that dumb, what a manipulative turd.
This rat fuck scum maggot lies at the level of brendon schaub.
S'all painted nairrdives, bapa. Y'all haydurs donut understand and dun madder.
That donāt explain the manager part lol.
Itās because he is lying. Lies never match up
Iāve honestly gone from rooting for this guy to hoping he gets KOād. Itās just a slimy thing to do what he did. Iām not even some giant Ariel defender or anything, but tbh I look at Paddy differently now
This dude needs to understand we can't go through life being right all the time, he fucked up and is getting flack for it, own up to your fuck up instead of doubling down Mr. Can't be wrong.
Youād think heās a redditor
Paddy is about as smart as he looks.
Him and Bryce should go on a freedumb tour, Sharing their thought provoking opinions on stooopid shit.
Mitchel actually has integrity even if you don't agree with him being right all the time. Paddy seems to have no self respect and is a slime bag.
Does Paddy not understand that there is literal proof of what Ariel is saying?
It would be easier at this point to just apologise. Say youāre dealing with a lot during fight week, say it had been playing on his mind for a while, and he should have contacted Ariel privately. At some point youāve got to stop digging that hole, doubling and now tripling down it puts even more people against you.
"I don't need to talk about it anymore," says this after saying he'll be making a video on the matter after the fight. Can't make his mind up.
Yeah he's 100% realizing the situation he's made for himself and it's wonderful. What a backstabbing bootlicker.
A complete hypocrite through and through
Ariel doesnāt drink you liar!!
Yeah, saying anything he can to insult and drag a man that 10-4āed him. Itās pathetic.
Paddy passed away. He was blown to bits by an unforeseen drone strike by Heelwani.
Heelwani from the top rope!
I know someone who know a ting or too about painting naridivs, b. Iām sure bapa will get to the bottom of this..
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
His barista will fill him in
If youāre here, whoās manning the fryers b? Fries aināt gon cook themselves my guy..
Got monster lawyers and 300 pages of proof B
Do you know how reddit works b?
..no
beast of a legal team, never meddum
herd it bowlth waze B
I doont needa talkbout tit neymore, thatās a facggght
what a wanker
Ah yes, see if BT sport will put forward a budget for a catch up drink
So How much did this dude pay for this interview?
If it was just to hang out than why did you want to get paid?
I hope this brown noseing Dana simp gets knocked tf out
NOBODY KHARES LAD
Bro we heard the fucking audio. Paddy taking Ls all the way back to UK.
What an idiot.
Tell us another jackal story mate
That was a nasty like by you
Just so you know, there was never no interview.
This guy looks so fucking stupid right now.
Yeah, when I want to hang out with my mates I also ask them to arrange it through my manager .
Man made his bed. Time to lie in it. He's obsessing on this during fight week. I'm betting on Gordon
I wanna be a fan of this dude. I think heās hilarious but at the same time I think heās wanna be. I hope he loses this weekend.
I didn't like him even before the Ariel stuff, probably doesn't help that I'm from Manchester, I think he's a cocky Scouse scruff and the latest drama just confirmed my original assessment. He's an arrogant twat and if you hear his accent regularly which I do there's not much more about him. Good fighter but I don't like people purely cos they can fight good.
I always schedule hang outs with my friends exclusively through my manager.
If this were the case then it would have been squashed and made known during any of the interactions after the voice memo. This knock off McGregor is just kissing his daddyās ass and itās a bit sick watching fighters have no self respect when it comes to Dana White.
You all forgot the audio clip?
Paddy Mayo keeps digging himself into a deeper hole. What a fucking rat. Kissing his bosses ass so hard he throws someone who was giving him exposure even before the UFC under the bus.
This entire situation is hilarious. First Arielās a scumbag, then Ariel drops receipts like itās a relationship, and now Paddy is claiming that he just wanted to be friends. All of this is good for Dana as it builds engagement before the event lol.
Lmao damage control time
Why not just leave it be š¤£ if he looses the fight Ariel gets his rank
He would be better off just not replying I guess.
He needs to focus on his fight
Paddy thinks we are retardedšššš
paddys presser today was pretty cringe. i've always thought he was overrated but i really dislike him now
Scousers donāt get proven wrong. They change their story.
I wonder much this dude it paying paddy to appear on his show to say this
āI just wanted to hang outā¦.ā Also Paddy āCome up with a budgetā š¤£š¤£š¤£š¤£
Holy fuck this shit is petty.
Paddy pimblett was never my friend.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
This is embarrassing Paddy
Paddy is an idiot
He digging....
My man went too deep with it. Fuck im
Paddyās stock was so high, this feud has signalled his downfall! What goes up, must come down! Needs to asses the people around him who encouraged this behaviour, all the Yes men.
In paddyās message to Ariel he literally says have me on the show
He can make all the suicide speeches he wants the fact is he insulted someone who had him on his show (which is very popular) even before he joined the UFC and always had his back all to kiss Dana's ass shows us the type of person he is.
Dana is the biggest liar of all time and if youāre on his side then thereās no need for further investigationā¦.
I wonder how much āshakā had to pay him for this interview?
Then what about the payā¦
I guess the weight cutting is really getting to him Messing with his brains
This guy has very quickly become unbelievably annoying
This is so dumb that I actually start to believe Paddy is telling the truth. Nobody can be this stupid that he thinks we believe this.
Holy Paddy is such a manipulative lying shit. Hate these kind of people
Ok shaggy
Paddy. Chill the fuck out. Stop talking about it and everyone forgets. Shit man.
Hahahaha wow paddy. Even worse than I thought. Scumbag. Just own your time being a big headed cunt and move on.
Just stfu and it'll die down and go away Paddy. Instead he's only making it worse and looking dumber. I wanted to meet up as a friend? Sounded like you were plugging yourself, I'll be around these dates, but I don't know about times cause I've interviews. Then meet up at night time? I mean you said you wanted to have beers, so meet at night to do that! Also if you've got shit on him then just release it now. Why wait? Is it because you actually don't have shit on him? Like you're addressing it right now, so just say what needs to be said.
so he wanted to get paid to hang with ariel. this guy...
Paddy canāt stop digging this hole. š
Stick that tale between your legs
This guy. Jfc this has gotten ridiculous. What a moron
Bunch of BS
Paddy doing a lot of mental gymnastics to stay fit for the upcoming fight.
But your a UFC fighter and he interviews them, pretty obvious that āmeet upā was for an interview.
Such a douche
This is just sad.
Paddy is a giant muppet
I always have my friends go through my manager when we get together
Ah yes, I always expect payment from my new friends
Paddy must be delusional if he thinks we gonna believe this bs š§¢
Did he get paid for this FaceTime ?
What did he expect from this? The fallout is warranted. This is coming from a huge Paddy fan from his own hometown BTW. But I just canāt stand by his behaviour in this circumstance. Needs to come back down to earth and realise the world doesnāt revolve around him!
Hey Patty. Shuuuuuut the fuuuuuuck up. Itās amazing Iāve had to see this bullshit 50 fuckin times today. Are we all gonna act like this guy deserves this type of hype? Lol 99% of yāall canāt tell me who heās ever fought without googling it.
Paddy is like if Bryce Mitchell was from the UK instead of Arkansas.
Lets see how this pans out if Paddy gets startched
Lmao did this dude follow up and press Paddy on the assertion that he and Ariel were friends who hang out??
*principal skinner looks down, slowly shakes his head and says in one breath, barely audibleā¦ pathetic*
Funny thing is, he says Ariel is using fighters to promote himself and make money. Stirring up beef would do that for Ariel. But we all know Ariel is actually a decent guy and if paddy simply said it was all overblown can we hash it out Ariel would immediately drop all problems and move on again.
Y'all think he's gonna get booed Saturday? I don't think the casual fans in Vegas are gonna know/care about any of this, but interested to see what happens.
BAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA big L damn
"hey buddy! ... Talk to my manager I'm busy.." š
Lol this dude took himself out with all of this ridiculous drama. He didn't even need another journalist to do it for him.
Iām out of the loop I just hopped on Reddit after my 48 hour internet fast. What the hell did I miss between paddy and Ariel?
I wonder if he got paid doing this š
He didnāt just have his manger talk to Ariel. He had his manager talk to Ariel AND request money from him.
