Daniele has made a reputation for herself in the MMA community with her friendly relationships with fighters and social media presence. Her recent partnership with prominent UFC fighters, including former middleweight champion Sean Strickland and former light heavyweight champion Alex Pereira, was appreciated by many.
As a result, the 36-year-old won the Personality of the Year title at the 2024 MMA Awards, defeating notable names like octagon announcer Bruce Buffer and UFC Hall of Famers Chael Sonnen and Daniel Cormier.
However, some fans have accused Daniele of being the main reason for fighters' defeats in the octagon, referring to it as the 'Nina Drama curse'. For context, top superstars such as Pereira and Strickland suffered defeat in their respective title fights at UFC 313 and UFC 312 after collaborating with Daniele.
When Ariel Helwani discussed his meeting with Nina-Marie Daniele
Ariel Helwani was present at the 2024 MMA Awards, held last year at the Virgin Hotels in Las Vegas, Nevada, and won the MMA Journalist of the Year award.
The 42-year-old, who met Nina-Marie Daniele at the award ceremony, expressed his happiness in a previous episode of his podcast, The Ariel Helwani Show, saying:
''It really did warm my heart, it really did. The recognition and then most importantly reconnecting with some people I had not seen in quite some time and actually meeting some people for the first time. I got to meet uh Frank's [Warren] favorite MMA personality Nina Drama, who couldn't have been sweeter, couldn't have been nicer. We had a nice chat in the back, I enjoyed that very much.''
