“No single journalist covering the MMA beat has achieved Ariel Helwani’s level of reporting on the sport. A humanist, a journalist and an admirer, Helwani’s work offers insights into the complex lives of the athletes, the business of fight promotions, and the stakes associated with each event.
Day after day, week after week, Ariel Helwani work has deepened this fan’s appreciation for the sport of MMA.
In my mind, on the record, officially in the history books, Helwani’s contributions to the sport of MMA are enough for him to be regarded as the official Dean of MMA Journalists.
At the very least, Helwani is deserving of his own twelve pounds of gold.”
