DFW will continue to do everything he can to ruin this man's career. Ariel can be sort of a weasel but he comes off as a good dude. I'm glad he's got a great gig now.
He's not scared off yet but basically being banned from UFC shows seems to be a problem for him covering MMA. I'm surprised he didn't try to transition to basketball or pro wrestling but I guess he's dedicated to MMA for now.
I know he has issues with Ali Abdelaziz, too. Basically was banned from interviewing his fighters for years. Ali recently unblocked him from twitter so I wonder if he's moved passed that. Even with the UFC banning him pretty much, Ariel still has strong sources. He's usually neck and neck with Brett Okamoto as the top breaking reporter and Ariel seems to secure major interviews with fighters. The guy has connections, which is why I think he stayed with MMA. What sucks for him is he can't go to the UFC events.
