Nina-Marie Daniele recently backed Bryce Mitchell's claims about the flat-earth theory and recalled being the odd one out in her family because of her views. The UFC influencer interviewed 'Thug Nasty' before his highly anticipated fight against Kron Gracie at UFC 310 this weekend.
It's no secret that Mitchell is a firm believer in the flat-earth theory and has vehemently defended his views on the subject on social media and in interviews. Apart from believing that the earth is flat, the Arkansas native also dismisses the concept of gravity and has slammed those who believe in the theory of evolution.
While most disagree with Mitchell's outlandish beliefs, it appears Daniele isn't one of them. During their recent pre-UFC 310 interview, she voiced her support for his views and revealed that she also disproves the heliocentric nature of our galaxy. She said:

"I do believe that the earth is stationary, and it's covered by a dome. People get on my a** about that all the time. We've believed that the earth is round for a shorter amount of time than we ever believed that the earth was actually flat. Every single ancient civilization that we've derived any knowledge that we have of today, believed that the earth was flat. "
She contiued:
"And satellites go 17,000 miles per hour? Are you crazy?... I was a black sheep in my family for my whole life, Bryce."

Nina-Marie Daniele backs Bryce Mitchell's attacks on Neil DeGrasse Tyson
In the same interview, Nina-Marie Daniele also backed Bryce Mitchell's views on astrophysicist and scientist Neil DeGrasse Tyson. While she acknowledged that he might be a good person, she couldn't wrap her brain around anything he said.
Speaking to Mitchell, she thoroughly dismissed the world-famous scientist's teachings and beliefs and said:
"I've never believed a single thing that this man has said. And every person I talk to thinks because he's so well-educated, he has all these degrees, he has a PhD in this and that that bullsh*t, nothing that man says makes sense. I'm sorry, gravity is not real."
Mitchell then chimed in and replied:
"You're absolutely correct. And here's how you know he's full of sh*t... He's a government plant, and it's so evil that it's actually satanic. These people are trying to convince you that God don't exist and that you come from monkeys. I'm telling you right now, you do not come from monkeys."
