Cant wait for the fight card. Ive been trying to get into Bellator and PFL. This is a great way for MMA fans to get introduced to the org.
I like this guy. Transparency is needed in MMA
I love this guy's attitude it's so refreshing and positive
Great interviews with this gent, every time. Looking forward to having more MMA readily available!
Love that guy lol he bring a différent vibes to mma
My immersion broke everytime he said Ariels name
Many new MMA fans forget that ufc didnt reach golden era until they merged with two top other promotions, PRIDE and Strikeforce. It brought and the greatest heavy weight era ever for mma. I cannot wait to see how much this does for pfl. Bellator already had a few champions better than their ufc weight counter parts, and the greatest mma fighter currently on the planet Usman Nurmagomedov. Now pfl has not the greatest in talent from what ive watched, maybe a handful in top tier, but this merger will push the talent requirement to the next level.
I already miss Bellator
this card is really good. anyone who says its a B league is casual. the ufc is already being watered down.. and i’m tired of their rich man politics. i love what Pfl did for Francis. rooting for them
If it was on the UFC it would take 5 years to Champion vs Champion fight each other
The UFC fumbled the bag with the Saudi card, the PFL smashed them with quality. I hope the PFL can sustain this quality.
Lol yeah. It must be fun in fantasy land.
@@mr.brenman2132 What does Dana's juice taste like?
@@greyman003 Ask your mother. PFL is a B league.
@@mr.brenman2132 So original well done. Do your fingers stick to the keyboard with everything Dana gives you?
They didn't fumble anything lol Islam headlining alone blows this card out of the water lol
Take
My
Money.
" ONLY IN AMERICA "
DON KING VOICE 😂
LET'S GO BELLATOR
Ariel I know you see this lemme get a like I watch your videos almost all the time your the og of mma journalists much love
I really like Donn
Hey Btw where is Eagle FC??? Tf happened to them😂😂
Dana Carvey joins the show
When he mentions partners and past Bellator champions, I think he's talking about Rizin and featuring Kyoji Horiguchi for a flyweight championship
or maybe Patchy Mix vs Kai Asakura for the bantamweight title
Horighuchi is going back to the UFC
just seen the card and the time in the uk im loving these saudis no more wait till 3am to have the prelims start and 6am for the main event
They will be competitive till they run outa money
Kayla signed with UFC .. yikes. FIRST THEY LET MVP SLIP AND NOW KAYLA AND FRANCIS SAYS HE HAS 0 intentions of fighting MMA anytime soon he wants Wilder and Tyson Fury after AJ. Francis said “ everyone wanted me to be mma champ I want to be boxer .. “. So sounds like mma is ✅ unless they get Jones or Something wild ~
Bjorn Rebney needs to come back
because????
I really think the Saudi money that is letting PFL buy Bellator is a game changer. I think they'll be real competitors as the best MMA promotion in the coming years
No they won't, but it will be nice for the hard-core fans
UFC has no pressure that’s why they sell $90 PPV with 2 solid fights, and most of the time those fall off too
I will be watching.
Can’t help but root for Don. Fans win in the end!
I’ll buy
Respect
I’m really looking forward to this. If you are a die hard MMA fan, I don’t see how you can’t be excited. These are the kinda fights that us as fans kinda joke about and basically fantasize about to be honest. It’s rare you actually get to see these type fights actually materialize. I dig what these guys are doing
watching the full card for the first time PFL
The Dana White antidote, imagine this guy ran the UFC, I fkn wish
Ariel is The Best MMA Reporter
I really like Donn and what the PFL is all about, and having Dan Hardy on board for me is gold. I will say that it's hard to get into other promotions coming from the UFC, they do a great job of that promotional wrap around events, building up with video countdowns, embedded, lots of media interviews.
They are a drag for the fighters, but they really help attaching personality and stories to the fighters and fights. The UFC can feel like a circus at times, but stories is still a part of it.
I do want rankings to mean something, and I don't think it's right when a fighter talks themselves into a fight they don't deserve, but as a fan I want (as part of that hype building to the event) for the PFL to educate me on these fighters and why the event will be so great.
Until there is a law change not allowing ufc to hold these ufc fighters hostage, nothing is going to changed.
Donn Davis is totally different from Dana.
2 fights a year 😂 UFC in 2023 absolutely killed it with their ppv events. And I doubt 2024 will be in different for the UFC since it started so well Sean vs Dricus, O’Malley vs Chito, Volk vs Llia, Mexico City card. And Izzy’s return plus Islam vs Justin or Olivera. And then you got the heavy weight division that is stacked.
Harrison said im out to the ufc peace. She aint fighting for you guys . ufc out bid you
2 ppvs a year lol 😂
Bro tweakin
A ppv headlined by Ryan Bader? The card is stacked but this isn’t realistic
Kaylaz in the ufc
The only good fight on there is Thiago Santos vs Yoel Romero, who are both too old for the UFC
Hey guys I do not understand PFL at all. So you claim this is a PPV and you want to see creativity, character, colour, and fighters will “go for broke”. If these are all good things, why will normal PFL events revert to boring, uniform shows? Or is there a “cost” of allowing this creative freedom (boring uniforms mean sponsorship rev?)
I can see the Saudi's forcing the UFC to put on Francis vs Jones. Money talks.
They just won't go to Saudi Arabia lol plus Jones won't accept even if the oil princes give him 100 million
PFL/Bellator > UFC
Lol 😂 howwwww
Who’s Don Davis ?
Shark tank would pass
No 5 round title fights? Yeah not because of what he said. There’s too many title fights and regular fights on the main card, thus if you made the title fights 5 rounds it would be WAY too long. And by the way if the UFC only put on 2 ppv cards a year it would be stacked and WAY MORE stacked. Co promoter in mma? Stop it. This guy is a goofier looking Bjorn Rebney from the earlier Bellator days. Always sounds positive and speaking half truths. They shoulda made this card free to build the brand. THEN put on ppvs. This was a free product. Gotta ease in on ppv. Really build the stars. And to be honest they are going too many directions. Bellator deal. PFL deal. Multiple TV deals. Europe only divisions etc. And Ngannou was supposed to fight in the PFL this year! Now this guy is fine if it’s in 2025 if Ngannou will box a third time! He’s like a that dad or mom that wants to be your friend above parent. Last but not least no ppv price and the event is a month away? Anyways I’m done.
The Saudis are gonna throw a billion to the ufc and they're not gonna deny that.
Is Donn a robot?
Am I the only one who just wants to see Francis fight mma? I’m so tired of boxing
Something about dude I just don’t like.. I love what they’re doing though, ufc keeps loading up with all this amateur level talent something crazy could happen
dude is delusional. dana eats him for lunch
Guns n Roses? Illusions? He doesn't know what he's talking about. Hint: don't talk about something when you have no clue. It puts into question your overall intelligence and trust level. If you think Illusions was the big GnR break out, then he is very self unaware. I'm sure he is smart but not as smart as he thinks. That can be dangerous.
