If you paid attention to Twitter over the weekend, you might’ve seen that Ariel Helwani Helvani (with a “v”) reported some breaking news about UFC president Dana White and Russian leader Vladimir Putin reaching an agreement on Khabib Nurmagomedov being able to travel to the U.S. so he can fight Tony Ferguson on April 18 at UFC 249, as planned. If you really paid close attention, you realized that the information was coming from a parody account of the ESPN reporter . White didn’t, though, and actually replied to the fake Helwani account . Even better than White falling for the fake account was Daniel Cormier , who revealed as much during his Monday live chat with the actual Helwani.
