Ariel Helwani calls out TKO's double standard on fighter releases
19 views22 Oct 2026
TKO let Shakur walk three months after signing without a second thought ā but fighters like Shawn Strickland are begging for their release and getting stonewalled. Ariel is calling out the double standard loud and clear.
Powell Kosta has one fight left and can't get booked, WWE athletes are stuck in the same trap, and TKO is out here acting like they just couldn't make it work with Shakur. The math ain't mathing. š
