He knows his MMA.

Yeah he does. He can't be worse than Goldberg. I think he'll do fine.

he needs to say "let's get it on!" and then run back to the commentator's table for every fight

Some guy was bagging on EliteXC's first event and saying "I'm a real mma fan, I know what it looks like. And what the fuck is up the announcers? The guy with glasses looks like my weather man!"


It made me lol

There was a little excerpt in the new ESPN magazine from a conference the Prez of IFL gave. "Most people who are not hardcore fans, think if its not called UFC, its shit. And that makes it really hard to survive". -something like that.

I wouldn't be surprised though if there were fans in Japan who didn't know anything other than Pride.

i found it

"By the way they have the two worst commentators I have ever seen or heard. I think I saw the goofy guy with the glasses doing the weather on news 12 or some s*it. I thought you were suppose to have some knowledge about a sport to be a commentator. ELITE XC BL*WS"

They should let this guy do the play by play.

This was my response
"This is directed towards nickynj5399 about "the goofy guy with the glasses". If you claim to be an avid MMA fan than you will know who Mauro Ranallo is. But then again, you probably never watched PRIDE FC.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mauro_Ranallo

"He is most prominently known among MMA fans as the voice of PRIDE Fighting Championships PPV broadcasts in North America from 2003 until October 2006""
