Giga Chikadze
UFC featherweight Giga Chikadze wasn’t pleased with Ariel Helwani feuding with Dillon Danis
Jake Paul aside, grappling artist Dillon Danis has a new online foe – MMA reporter Ariel Helwani. A week ago, after Helwani hailed Paul, Danis issued a verbal attack on the ‘MMA Fighting’ main man.
Helwani hit back as well, and the pair went back and forth. More recently, Danis, in a bid to reconcile with Helwani, sent the Canadian a DM.
Helwani leaked the DM with the caption:
I don’t know what’s sadder: The fact that it took @dillondanis six whole days to reply or the fact that he had to call upon the worst judge in MMA history, Douglas Crosby, to write that shitty material for him because he couldn’t think of anything witty himself.“
He continued:
“I mean, insipid? Really? If you’re gonna ask for a ghost writer at least make sure they use words that you know the definition to. That’s like rule 1. Anyway, it’s OK. It’s all love bro, right? Happy new year, fellas! Xo.”
He also followed it up with a number of tweets, hitting out at Danis.
UFC Featherweight Giga Chikadze wasn’t particularly pleased with Helwani. Posting a screenshot of Helwani asking him to come to his show – The MMA Hour, Chikadze tweeted:
“Stop bullying little kids i’m not interested coming on your show drama queen I speak to really guys don’t post the other conversation with people online Real men don’t do this and also don’t cry on life television.”
The first UFC event of 2022 will be headlined by Giga Chikadze taking on Calvin Kattar. The number 8 ranked Georgian is unbeaten in the UFC, and is coming off a TKO win over Edson Barboza.
Kattar, meanwhile, is ranked number 5, and hasn’t fought since headlining the first event of 2021. He took on Max Holloway and was beaten from pillar to post – although he hung on to a decision.
UFC Fight Night: Kattar vs Chikadze takes place on the 15th of January, 2022.
