Finally an interview that doesn't feel disconnected.
This is so much better than the translator interviews.

Great job Helen. Really enjoyed seeing this. You could tell that Zhang was so much more comfortable speaking her first language.

Great interview Helen! I honestly think this is the best one yet by far I’ve seen with Weili. It seems much easier to follow along with the subtitles, rather than with a translater repeating what she’s saying. Hopefully she’s learning English , as I really think that’ll truly help boost her US fan base to a different level. (imho of course!) Keep up the great work Helen!!

Great job Helen! It’s hard not to be a fan of Weili. Humble warrior.
Thank you Helen Yee. I appreciate all your hard work and updates.
thank you for subtitles, it's much better than having to listen to a translator repeat what they said. It just flows better.
"My name is ZHANG WEILI, remember ME!" Loved that line after her title win. I don't get the UFC's insistence on calling her Weili Zhang just because "the family name is said last here". Okay well she's not from here and there they say the family name first... just pronounce the name the way the person themselves says it ffs.

Hi from Hong Kong, Helen, great job with the translation. Weili spoke in plainly, but you managed to capture her mood/disposition/feeling in the subtitles. Great journalism, and something increasingly important as we see more Chinese fighters in the UFC. Also, subscribed now (and I bet your parents complain to you about paying more attention to the 4-tones...just as mine do to me).

You do a great Job covering Weili. More of this please. Even videos where some of the translations are missed in real time, because it can be difficult to track everything someone says in real time to translate especially if it is long, like her latest post-fight interview in the Octagon after the Joanna fight, if you can help translate what she said like this in a video, that will be of great help. 🙏
I came across this video in Chinese social media Weibo, it’s great to see you speak Mandarin and make this impressive interview

Keep up the good work Helen. The Asian community is proud of you 👍!
It's weird and awesome at the same time to hear you speak Mandarin! Definitely useful though with the Chinese market opening up for UFC!
best interview ever!

Would you do a video or give a link to “how to do interviews for martial arts” since not many are like you where it’s being asked by someone that knows the sport by at least training like you if my information is correct
What? Helen Yee speaks fluent Mandarin? I'm definitely impressed by your performance
I watched Zhangs last fight and she was awsome . A new rising star in the U fc.I just think shevchenko would be to experienced and too strong for hereof they fought ! And the Beautiful helen speaking chinese ? Respect !! 👊
Helen Yee is the best interviewer out of all of them!👍👍👍👍👍
Great interview Helen. I really like Zhang Weili. She's very likeable and a great fighter! I hope to see her fight my favourite WMMA fighter in future... Valentina Shevchenko! I think that could be a crackin' fight.
Helen you're always doing your best to inform us about the fighters mindset and their progression and been bilingual is a great asset and Weili is a phenomenal fighter but you can tell that she's a very warm human being like yourself peace.
Awesome interview Helen! Very profesional,i wish you take the oportunity with chinese fighters, you are doing a good job!
Wow..Helen in her best element!👍👌🤩
Zhang Weili training since 13 years old, finally now her time has come. a down to earth champion... keep bringing eyeballs to your fights and your bigger payday is around the corner!
I didn't even realise Helen could speak mandarin. As for Weili v Valentina, wow what a megafight. They are both similar in having such strong athleticism, aggressive styles, confidence and mastery of their skills. I really think they should wait and milk everything they can before going there though, because once that superfight happens where else you gonna go?
The UFC should hire you. Excellent interview!

Helen Yee you are amazing!
Does Helen have access speaking mandarin?
Nice interview !
Always support you Weili♥️💯
You're amazing Helen !
And new subscriber added. All strength to the channel
Thank you Zhang!! Helen you ask quite interesting questions!
Any chance you could get one with Meng Fanlong? That would be dope if you could!
Helen, next time can you make the captions larger?
I'm listening to you speak, but I keep hearing the 'Dreamweaver' song like on Wayne's World! Shaweeng!😍j/k Awsome interview! Weili is a badass!
Awesome Helen, keep up the hard work. Our Korean fighter are super bad ass
Nicely done! You are really amazing, Helen.
Great interview! Zhand Weili will have plenty of support in the US... I would think all the Chinese style practioners here might have a feeling of camaraderie with her.
Yes, a subtitle dis time nice job Helen! Zhang keep saying she's not impressed with Joanna..I think Joanna will be furious n their fight gonna be fire🔥 🔥
Love the confidence. After winning she had her sights on someone in the higher division. She's been champ 2 seconds!
What other languages do u speak Helen?

Very impressive interview, shows your range and depth, " good job Helen, excellent preparation . " Try to learn Spanish, Canelo would love to do an interview with you.
Luke Thomas made great video called Joanna Jedrzejczyk fighter evolution. Joanna changed a lot since she won a title. Last Saturday she had more takedowns than her opponent and tried to choke Michelle out.
You are the greatest Zhang! Love watching you!
That will be a huge fight
I’m a Weili Zhang fan. Love her dedication to the sport. Her training videos out of this world. I believe Weili and Rose would be a good one which would be a toss up for me. I would lean to Rose with her boxing and footwork. My opinion 🌺

Great interview Helen, and Zhang is a killer her and Valentina would be a great matchup but give her some time. Her best bet is to fight Thug Rose next if possible.
I hope you two were able to have a sit down and just talk as to regular people. I am sure she felt really good talking to you.
So cute great job Helen i hope UFC hire you 👍🙏
Make this bout happen vs Shevchenko.
