Nina-Marie Daniele called out The MMA Guru following latter's comments on a female journalist
Nina-Marie Daniele has condemned MMA influencer The MMA Guru for making offensive remarks toward journalist Amy Kaplan during a UFC 307 press conference.
The controversy arose when MMA Guru directed insensitive comments at Kaplan, who later revealed that these kinds of remarks contributed to her preference for staying behind the camera, despite covering the sport for over a decade.
Daniele, frustrated by what she described as The MMA Guru's repeated personal attacks, stood up for Kaplan on social media. In a strongly worded post on X, Daniele called out the influencer, writing:
"THIS is what makes you so indecent and despicable. So much so that I had to say something. THIS is the reason why you will never make it out of that stale basement doing internet interview calls for the rest of your life, pr**tituting yourself for donations that don’t even cover a premium Zoom account. There’s a reason why you had to take on the role of the heel on the back side of the MMA media industry and it’s because you’re a rude, vile, ignorant, dusty, pathetic troll that causes more problems than you're worth."
She added:
"You owe @PhotoAmy33 an apology and while you’re at it apologize to yourself for turning out less than human, an excrement stain on society, and now the reason another person is going to sleep feeling devalued and violated."
Kaplan, grateful for the support, expressed her appreciation, thanking Daniele for standing by her.
