    I totally agree. Seeing this show back again made me abit emotional. It's what nostalgia does to a person. I watched this show so many times, I'm glad that it's back. I like Dana's personality. But I always sided with Ariel when it comes to what happend with those 2. It's a shame Dana doesnt apprichiate the help from Ariel promoting this sport, even though he did leak a fightcard before UFC. It's sad that Dana is acting like a kid when it comes to this but it is what it is I guess.. entertaining non the less. The best to you Ariel

U probably considered second show on thurs/friday to prewiev the weekend shows up to date. I Would love that. Also its hard to prioritize 6 hous a week for the show so some shorter interwievs Would be Great. Thanks again for beeing back were we want u🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
