No he didn't. You came into this discussion uninformed with a bias against Helwani. And now you're making things up.
I guess at least you're acknowledging that Hill lied. Baby steps here.
I totally disagree.
And your fortune telling is way off. If you had nothing better to do than scour these boards for all I've ever said about Ariel (I hope you have better things to do), you'd see I've always been 95% in favour of Ariel in his standoffs vs anyone. So your bias theory originates entirely in your colon, sorry. If you'd bother to analyze yourself as well as (or better) than you do others, you'd see that you actually made that up out of thin air due to YOUR biases.
You know-it-alls and fortune tellers never cease to amaze me. How do you guys go through life on the basis of wild, unsupportable assumptions? Human beings, smh.
As for "admitting" Hill lied (or forgot), no shock there. If I can "admit" Ariel lied (after clearly saying I've NEVER seen him out-and-out lie in his long and tenured career) and I clearly had faith in Ariel's tendency to not lie, it would be WAY EASIER to admit Hill lied, who I've only started paying attention to in the last couple years. I have zero expectation of truth from Hill, since he's just a random fighter and not a top reporter who has held his integrity (more times than not) over decades.
Basically, Ariel has a lot of credit with me that Hill simply doesn't have. I'm not shocked by Hill lying (or forgetting, whichever it is). But I AM shocked by Ariel lying. You can deny Ariel lied, or you can even disagree based on interpretation of what "lie" means, and that's fine. But I see his dishonesty in his actions for the first time, and it surprises me, quite frankly.
It is more impartiality than bias that informs my perspective on this subject. If it were bias, I would blindly side with Ariel like many are doing.
