Luke Barnatt, a former UFC middleweight fighter and current MMA commentator, picked a fight with content creator Nina-Marie Daniele for some reason and got roundly put in his place for it.

Daniele has a massive social media following – nearly 2 million followers on Instagram – and produces a lot of content involving interviews with UFC fighters.

She also happens to be a model who gained popularity after being named the “April Playmate of the Month” in Playboy magazine’s March/April 2017 issue.

Daniele knows she’s hot and posted an image that will practically melt your screen.

Luke Barnatt Takes A Shot

Ya know, Nina, maybe you do need to do your laundry. But if it means more pictures like that, please take your time.

Barnatt, rather than admiring the image, criticized Daniele for what he believes is an effort to degrade herself and her work. And he threw in an OnlyFans jab for good measure.

“Nina puts together some of the most refreshing and fun interviews in the MMA community, really enjoyed some of her content,” he lamented. “It’s a shame she’s reverted to this thirst-trapping garbage to gather a following, the job she already does is quality.”

“Wish she didn’t cheapen herself like this to the simps in the MMA community.”

Nina-Marie Daniele Fires Back … Hard

Barnatt went on to say he “can’t watch her content anymore because” having been traumatized by the above image he now views Nina in the same vein as “a girl that you think is interesting and has a real perspective on the world then finding out she has an (OnlyFans).”

We’re quite sure she’ll be losing sleep over losing Luke as a fan.

Actually, check that, she responded. And in doing so absolutely flattened Barnatt.

“First of all, I never started an OF Lol. Before doing MMA interviews I was a successful fashion model in NY and Europe. Modeled for Michael Kors, Maybelline, Fenty, Victoria’s Secret and appeared in dozens of fashion publications such as, Vogue, Elle, Marie Claire etc,” she replied before noting, “I was also the last Playboy Playmate of the Year chosen by Hugh Hefner.”

“I don’t think posting sexy pics tarnishes my brand at all,” Danielle added. “Who are you to tell me what I can and cannot post? If you don’t like my content. Block me.”

Barnatt consequently argued that his back-handed compliment was “from a good place.”

“I was making commentary on the global situation of men simping over women, like all the knights in shining armor now coming to your rescue in the comments, I’m sure they’re all stand up guys,” he responded.

Apparently, men admiring women is a new phenomenon.

Barnatt added: “I followed your instructions and blocked you. I hope you manage to do your laundry.”

It’s too bad he blocked her. Since Nina-Marie Daniele also took a subtle jab with her next post on X.
