The beef between Dillon Danis and Ariel Helwani shows no signs of stoppage as both men are back at their Twitter antics after a week’s delay.

Dillon Danis re-ignited his saga with Helwani by throwing a flurry of inexcusable Tweets towards the former ESPN analyst. Notably, questioning the decade-old reporter’s qualifications and work ethics. However, it seems like Helwani has the perfect answer to Danis’ disrespect as Helwani unleashes his retribution.

Considering Danis’ latest Tweet, the MMA journalist shot back with his own analysis of the situation and even shared a screenshot from a past conversation.

Recently, Helwani Tweeted, “I don’t know what’s sadder: The fact that it took @dillondanis six whole days to reply or the fact that he had to call upon the worst judge in MMA history, Douglas Crosby, to write that shitty material for him because he couldn’t think of anything witty himself.

“I mean, insipid? Really? If you’re gonna ask for a ghost writer at least make sure they use words that you know the definition to. That’s like rule 1,” Helwani continued.

Helwani captioned a screenshot of their conversation, “Anyway, it’s OK. It’s all love bro, right? Happy new year, fellas! Xo”
