If I see Conor McGregor I'll smack him - Ali Abdelaziz | Ariel Helwani’s MMA Show
MMA manager Ali Abdelaziz joins Ariel Helwani’s MMA Show in studio to clear the air with Ariel regarding the beef between Khabib Nurmagomedov and Conor McGregor, with Ali claiming it started with a tweet by McGregor’s trainer John Kavanagh. (8:20) Ali explains why he’s still made despite Khabib submitting Conor at UFC 229. Abdelaziz also discusses a lawsuit he says he has pending because of the chaos surrounding the post-fight brawl.

I love how Ariel just pretends that he doesn't like drama in this interview. He is the king of making slick little instigating comments.
@Mugwort jealous he has a carriere and you dont?
@Mugwort i dont even know what you mean by that
@Mugwort he is a fanboy? Fanboy of who and what does thaf have anything to do with it? You are trying to copy conor his words. He said that in the press conference with khabib and he got smashed after that. Secondly? Some people did not reach a smart level. Macaroni and cheese.
He's Jewish
@@samiahmed6875 so what? Who cares. And im a muslim.
“Shut your mouth ali Abdelaziz” made him famous lol
Nah!!! Bro he was famous before He manages best of UFC fighters

How's Clodah ?
@@ArjanTV dna results confirmed conor is not the father. So how's Noah?
What does Ali mean by saying Ariel is not loyal??? He's a journalist. He has no loyalty to anyone. His job is to report MMA news and interview fighters.
Pat L nah Ariel is pretty loyal to Conor mcgrgeor.
loyal to truth, against pandering on a whim, to suit his own ego...fool!
He despite jews the schosen one,s especally Ariel
Ariel is a snake that's why he got cut from the ufc.
agreed Ariel is a SNAKE!
Ariels interview skills are on point, it got heated but he handled it well.
He cracked that big headed overheated bully. Exposed him actually.
@Brett R Ali is a moron.
sure,but doesnt make him the righteous one,he just a slik snake
the jews are smart,thats why Ali and stupid people like you being played to believe and to follow what they want you to believe and follow
..You making me stalk the comments for links to the heated parts.. ;d
Tony Ferguson is the type of dude to ruin Ali's plans .
Finally.. one of these that make sense.
Ok nerd enough its not funny anymore
Even don't dream! But all you can ( conor's fanboys) just hate and dream ) pathetic losers
Nah. Gaethje is
I love how he puts the prayer beads around his neck and doesn’t stop cursing!
haha conor has trolled this dude into insanity

Ariel made Ali look dumb without Ali realizing it. This whole interview was a contradiction.

Oh he realized it
You also have to remember the language difference when your English aint the best you can sound more dumber too.
Shane Mufc Exactly- he’s an utter hypocrite!
@Eric Y The difference is Conor fights to back it up, Ali talks shit and hides behind his fighters lol. Ali is a rat.

I hope you’re joking because Conor would absolutely wreck you and Ali at the same time
Lachlan Giffin You never fought anyone in your life. What makes you think you can fight a pro fighter?
Ivan Garcia I would smack him wearing my t shirt
Lachlan Giffin You wouldn’t and couldn’t.
Credit to you Ariel for standing your ground and asking the tough questions. Ali made himself look like a fool, and was shook from everything you was saying. You’re the best in the game.
Joey Garcia I agree man... he done a great job.... Ali is shady!!
Honestly, I genuinely wonder if Ali constantly contradicts himself on purpose
They are friends and know the boundrys of how they should interact on camera. Although there is tension there, for Ariel hes a valuable source for any news, contract issues, negotiations etc. And Ariel has the platform Ali needs to push his fighters, help them promote themselves, get opinions aired etc.
Best in the game, wow, you're easily pleased.
Ali wasn't going at him lol.. I'd say Credit to Ariel for confronting Ali, though I think he kinda was overdoing it. And I disagree Ali didn't look as bad in this interview aside from his language. And he was man enough to apologize ☝️. I didn't like him before but after the interview I think he might be a good person actually
This guy contradicts what Khabib represents.
Nahhh khabib gets on with him because they follow the same ass backwards strain of islam
He’s just his manager, he’s also Frankie Edgar’s and Henry cejudos and many other big name fighters manager.
He’s exactly what Khabib represents under his fake good guy persona
@@John_Greek you know exactly tf goin on bruh👍 good for u
Not really both religious zealots
Every now and then I come back to this interview, this is a classic.
Ariel got the big nuts energy, if ali is a tough guy like he claims to be why is ariel putting straight 10-7 rnds on this guy verbally
Observe how he is holding his prayer beads the whole time
Ali borrowing Luck Rockhold's sweater.

Cockhold
Lol
Funny how ali has a 1-3 mma record tapping out on al his loses. Why is nobody talking about this 😂😂
EXACTLYYYY
He said it himself “tapping out and quitting is different” 😂
Cro010 iii Conor is 4 taps and 1 boxing event. Why is no one talking about that
@@aunttelly no one talks about nate diaz 14-9 record in ufc either , or khabib only has 11 fights in UFC but people claim he's 99-0 wrestle fucking cans all day. No one talks about khabibs 2 years abscense due to injury. Or his organ failure from weight cutting dropping out of more fights than anyone
A Ron have you seen NATE fight lately? Nate ain’t coming back. Dana doesn’t even want him to come back. Dana refuses to even deal with the Diaz brothers. He has a lawyer at the ufc do it lmao 😂 Khabib had back surgery, broken ribs, two acl knees surgeries. Do you seriously think khabib wanted to have surgery? Use your fucking brains, you are not a smart person
Ali "i know alot of irish people"... HIs list - Joe Duffy.. hahaha
Joe duffy doenst even know himself what he is
😂😂
This guy needs to realize that the people care about Khabib and his fighters and not about him. Its Khabibs win and not his. And stop acting like you are the victim of racism and then call other people white trash. Disgusting behavior. Oh and how is Noah btw?
the end killed me XD
Conor called him terrorist shit
Zaid Khan but I think he was a terrorous. I think he got caught by the fbi
@Adam Fullhan you sleep with 9 years old
Who tf is noah
Khabib did great not letting Conor get in his head but Conor clearly got in this guys head
does it matter after tapping out like a chicken
ali has tapped out his last 3 mma fights though
Come on....Conor got in Khabib's head. Why else do you think Khabib started a brawl after the fight? It's just that when you're an elite athlete with the sort of upbringing Khabib had it doesn't affect you fight wise. Know what I mean?
Nah.. Mcgregor just a white hope pussy. "Your fans can't fight for you" - Floyd HHAHAHA remember ???

Talks about Conor being prostitute for money..... "Everything we do is for Money"
kzhead.info/sun/maqRd5WJm2KvqXk/bejne.html
He wouldn't say that if he was the manager/pimp leeching 10% of all that Conor money. He's probably just salty because Khabib has a different approach and doesn't mind saying; Keep the money. (Although he'll get the money eventually) 10% of morals + 10% of pride = 0,00 dollars
Aaron B dude... Ali can’t even keep his shit straight... fuck this dude. I’m okay with Khabib, not a huge fan but whatever, but this dude is a piece of trash. Straight up

Really, Ariel? First, you tell him to forget and move on, but then you keep asking him why he wouldn't respond to Conor's claims?

are you illiterate?

ariel schooled him..lmao..brilliant
@Jacob Sirak My thoughts exactly... making it seem like it's bad to admit when wrong. People just hate this guy.
17:53 He calls Conor "white trash"... and in the same breath says that comparing him to Muhammed Ali is disrespectful to all Muslims...
ariel's best interview, for once he stands up for himself and gets the correct answers and replies hes looking for. Always asks the hard questions
This guy does not think before he talks. His lips move faster than his brain. Surprising how these low IQ bozos make it to the top. The power of having connections to powerful people.
Dude so many Arabs are like that. Impulsive, emotional, aggressive, huge fragile ego. They flex so hard but are so soft inside.
He's a very successful manager, don't take him for a fool. He's only building the rematch.

And why would they pick on conor if Kavanagh started this like they say?! So there saying they are bullies for starting this with conor . John must be embarrased over all the antics both sides he brought mma to Ireland! And never did any bad only good for people
All that cursing while wearing those prayer beads. Interesting.

Ariel seems like an insincere person playing a double game. Two faced, calling the guest just to insult him. Great respect for Ali
Ali acts like he's got a 27-0 record. Please tone it down and stop being so confrontational. It makes Team Khabib look bad. And we all love Khabib and his character.
hes a fight promoter.what do you think hes doing now?
Khabib is done with Conor, his father is done and even invited him. Ali is only building the rematch here.
true facts. because dana aint gonna allow floyd khabib. so where else is the 50m fight coming from :)
Yup. Doing his job and everyone here in the comments section seems to be tripping
Ali is not that clever he just annoyed he got exposed
Khabib will never be done with Conor lol

That was an excellent interview. Thanks to all and Ariel for bringing it.
Speaking as a Muslim, I hate how butthurt some Muslims can get sometimes about comments people make. I saw that Kavanagh post and I didn't find it that offensive. Maybe distasteful, but whatever. The prophet himself would get pelted by stones, but his message was to remain patient and to lead by example. I hate this mob mentality where you would threaten someone because of a harmless comment. Paints us Muslims in a bad picture.
Exactly, and I am a Muslim too.
Then u need to learn more about ur religion mate
I agree, most Muslims I met were chill anyway took me like I was their brother Ali is a bad representation of Muslims
How any professional Athlete lets this man represent them is bananas!!
There are like 40-50 ufc fighters he manages
It's cause he said himself, his mentality is to leave who ever he is negotiating naked and strip everything off them
He always gets them super fast and easy title shots I am 100 percent sure he pays Dana a good amount of money for that. His fighters always get super easy style matchups (Islam, Khabib) Umar is #11 and gets #1 Sandhagen thats why
His fighters get paid good and get constant title shots. I’d choose him as a manager too if I was a fighter.
I respect Ali Abdelaziz, the brother inspired me to achieve more
Facts. I dont know why he gets so much hate.
When Ali arrived he was talking to someone on his cellphone and I dont know who was on the line but I know it wasnt Noah
Ariel knows how to push buttons and is a big instigator in the MMA world 😂😂
I gotta say I was neutral on Ali, but there's something OFF about him. Maybe i'm wrong, but my guts saying something
You know what it is
Yea who knows, sometimes your gut tries telling you something
Maybe HE failed HIS mission back in the days , when hE tried tO blow himself up...hE banned from getting HIS 40 Virgins in heaven... lol
Why don't u just test ur gut on gambling?
Ali is one funny dude 😂😂
It’s so weird this guy is Khabib manager. I didn’t think Khabib would stand a guy like Ali
Ali is Tap Machine, he have only 2 fights on KZhead and 2 of them he tapped, one in about 10 seconds. And I think he is afraid of a smack, and if he afraid of a smack from Conor, a smack will feel like a double-barrel shotgun.
Lol Ali is such a shit talking dumb ass who can't fight.
Damn you’re very original
But alis boy tapped the owner of that double barrel shotgun
In that case Conor's a tap factory, he's tapped more than Ali. The only double barrel shotgun I know was the one released by Khabib on Conor's jaw putting him on his ass!
@@thehh5118 lmaoo tap factory 😂😂😂😂😂
Thumbs up for Ariel standing up for himself for this wannabe tough guy.
Pat L 4th degree black belt in bjj. He is tough.
ali is a hypocrite, i mean look how many time he contradicted himself in an hour. For me, he just strike like a guy has no loyalty and would switch side or his view at any given time
Also watch Ali you tube fights he is a professional tapper and a hypocrite
Christopher Moore doesn’t change the fact that Conor need to develop and get better as martial artist if he wants to compete in the 155 division. All fighters see Conor for what he is now. He’s got major ground work to do. These other 155 lbs are on a different level and Conor has only fought 1 man prior to this fight with khabib. Ali’s skill set doesn’t effect the ufc fighters. you are talking about shit that has nothing to do with fighting
@@aunttelly I think conor does have things to improve on, but saying that he has problem facing with guys in the 155 is just incorrect. just because he lost a fight to kahbib, doesn't mean he isn't as good. he showed great take down defence against khabib in the first and second round. And he had fought great wrestler like chad mandez, eddie. even jon jones once said conor has decent grappling and wrestling skill, it was just that khabib was way better than any of those guys in ufc. that said, khabib is definitely a hell of a fighter but just not my favourite type of fighting as i grew up watching burmese lethwai.
Ariel needs a "Joe Rogan "Jamie"..." So that we can start getting clips/highlights of this show.
When Ariel mentioned Kadyrov, Ali changed the subject so fast.
I can be wrong, but there is something fishy about that guy, don't you think?
Everything about hims fishy
I felt that about Ariel too
Conor ruined this guys life now he cant get past it wow another paulie malanaggi

@Firstno way dumb people who base characteristics around race rather than culture are clearly not educated enough for their opinions to be considered valid by other people. But I don't expect you to be reasonable after a comment like that.
Goat Stature if you think spreading hate is a worthy cause, you need to re-evaluate your morals and values

Hats off to Ariel Helwani for saying it as it is to Ali.
"You'll do fookin nuttin?"
Ali " im like a superstar now im a celebrity " Abdelaziz
People with such low intellect shouldn't be allowed to voice opinions in public. He's an embarrassment.
you mean people like you?
Andy Ariel should be silenced, you are right
John S true
You're the global judicator that tells who is intelligent and who isn't and who is allowed to have an opinion and who is not? I bet you can't even define intelligence. People can tell from a mile away by a comment like that you have major struggles and problems in your life. You're the real embarrassment.
I agree, Ariel rat should never be
I respect both of them. Ariel is direct and not a back stabber, but he is slick and can be passive aggressive at the worst time and know how to make the guy who over react, look bad and apologize. Ali is well respected and he has a huge ego but he doesn't hide it, he is not only talk, and Ariels ego is just as big but he is able to hide it better and thats needed for Ariels career. Both are doing amazing at their careers. In the end they respect each other and two strong egos will have disagreements...Plus Ariel knows how to go with the flow and never cause huge waves if its not supposed to create a bigger wave and that is what ALI is mad about, for not brining the same attention to all those issues and instead (in Alis mind) gave those guys a pass to act that way without any public consequences AREIEL is a huge factor when things do or dont get dressed..It became all too much back and forth in the end. Im sure they will be ok again.
Nice analysis
@@clydeshelton4674 thx, its just my opinion and I could be wrong as im human. Plus I doubt anything will ever come of it. Conor will probably never be on top again even though he was my fav fighter during his time of rise, but also seemed to change very fast with all the money and fame. But than again, im not sure I would handle it better, its easy for us to talk and judge. In the end im just a fan of the sport...I look forward and excited to see another Khabib or Conor type fighter. I guess Francis N has a movie type story and how he survived to even make it to France and then became the UFC champion. Im pretty sure they will make a movie about him, eve more so if he ends up dominating longer.
@@FExprt Francis is not as intriguing as Conor or even Khabib. He may be limited by his english, but I dont see the mystique that Conor had or even Khabib. Conor´s mystique was his crazy talk that became reality, defeating fighters with beautiful combinations, the way he moved and for me the way he took it all so serious; it was war. The massive fame and wealth that came along with his legendary aura really destroyed his persona. I adored him as a younger man, but now it is heartbreaking to see the shell of a legend. I think his quote by Van Gogh is spot on these days, he will die a mad man. That seems like the path he is on, unfortantely.
@@clydeshelton4674 I was being very generalized in regards to what I look forward to. Each story is unique, I was talking more about what Francis had to overcome which is by far the hardest road to success. Will that make him a bigger star? I doubt it because of the factors you mentioned but you never know and in the end its just another Fighter that brings something unique to UFC and depending on how well he does, he could surprise us but he is no longer that young either so well see.
