The Worst Thing About Every Commentator In The UFC

I own no images in this video.
Every major commentator has their flaws, whether it be their actual commentary, bias or something else. In this video i highlighted the biggest problem with each of the major commentators in the UFC. Let me know your thoughts and opinions on this and if you agree.

[@lukeraywood8590]

Rogans problem is that he just repeats the same thing over and over

[@Gfreee]

"Oh that guillotine is tight"

[@user-zf4jb2wy6r]

“He’s a monster”

[@aryanpramanik454]

''That leg is compromised"

[@BeeDeeAckeeeee]

“you can already see the swelling on that calf!” Joe Rogan immediately after the first leg kick of the fight lands

[@aurahbeats8871]

“do they still allow those steel muay thai cups?!”

"Both men have dealt with custody battles in the past" Anik

My biggest issue with Rogan is that he over exaggerates everything “he’s such a monster, one of the scariest men on the planet” doesn’t mean anything when he says it about everyone, also someone lands 1 leg kick and instantly he’ll say “that leg is compromised, look at that swelling”

[@vickyp-xm1zo]

I know. That criticism doesn’t make sense. Same with the Rogan one. A commentator’s biggest flaw is that they don’t commentate enough 😂

[@darfish2769]

[@JohnB-im3eu]

Ironic that you think it's a simple as that. Actively trying to win the fight a specific point in the fight isn't the same as just generally wanting to win a fight.

Your critique of Anik is pretty weak, and you explained his role within it. He has other commentators who were actually fighters to provide the kind of insight you said he lacks. He's an excellent play-by-play commentator and the best voice the UFC has.

[@aryanpramanik454]

Rogan is a legend and i respect everything he has done for the sport but the guy just cant stop exaggerating things, especially the effect of calf kicks. Like anytime a person takes more than like 2 calf kicks joes gonna have an aneurysm about how "his left leg is swollen" he said that in the max vs gaethje fight in the second round and max continued to fight orthodox for the whole fight.

[@Ace-zx9sb]

That leg was fucked max pain tolerance just different but I agree with you

[@thenedsmmachannel8970]

​@Ace-zx9sb he said on Joe's podcast that it didn't effect him. He says he knows it's gonna hurt the next day but in the fight he says he's fine

[@briangarner6103]

Laura Sanko has become my favorite oddly due to never annoying me. Everyone else has at least once.

[@trustee8503]

She lacks hype, but she brings in knowledge like no other commentator, by far the best analyst. So I think her downside is you gotta pair her up with a hype man like rogan

[@finnmarr-heenan2397]

Bisping never shuts up that’s his problem, never lets anyone get a word in

[@Mockelchef]

Bisping choking on British fighters is worse than dc choking on every wrestler

[@7nage]

That Anik point was a stretch, John Anik is a Play by Play caster/Host and Joe Rogan and the rest are Analysts/Color casters. Not everyone needs toe do the same job, it just becomes redundant. Anik is doing such a good job it's difficult to find flaws in his work. Well done.

[@jojo2036]

90% of what DC says is irrelevant or the most CTE description of whats happening. And hes really really annoying ngl.

[@sofdrink]

DC's bias is towards wrestling/grappling and it's super disgustingly blatant

[@BiggieTrismegistus]

Imagine a wrestler being "biased" towards wrestling. Shocking.

[@uriel7940]

Hoppero is def on the spectrum

[@stephengallagher2209]

Saying Cruz has bad takes because of the internet meme of his comment on the McGregor fight is silly. Sounded funny, but he meant McGregor had no option but to hope Khabib gassed out.

[@olastromberg4070]

Rogan is like the preprogramed commentary from the games just says the same thing

[@robbys100]

Rogan is out of his prime.

[@adequatequality]

This was quite an exciting video, but you know what's more exciting? That time Michael Bisping showed up on short notice and KO'd the Luke Rockhold that refused to touch gloves before the start of the fight

[@ashervirin9698]

Joe Rogan LOVES to talk about swelling on someone’s leg and how DISGUSTING 🤮 it is, even when you can hardly see it. Like he was raving about how gaethje fucked up max’s leg and yeah, he kind of did, but it wasn’t Aldo vs Faber. Holloway never stumbled backwards because of a kick or anything and yet Joe Rogan insists on freaking out about it

[@battlebeard2041]

Bisping’s bias doesn’t extend to all UK fighters. Mostly Aspinall, Till, Arnold and Craig. He seems pretty luke-warm on Leon, doesn’t like Paddy and barely mentions anyone else.

[@Mockelchef]

He chokes on every British fighter

[@Exiecutioner]

Jon anik brings up the most random facts about people from their personal life that they probably don’t want broadcasted on national television. How can you say he’s a great commentator? 😂

[@zealpulses3826]

"Chito Vera and O'Malley have longer legs than Stipe Miocic" "Jamahal Hill the father of six kids..." "These two fighters are currently going through custody battles..." I can't stand when Anik brings up stuff like that.

[@eventhorizon3962]

[@CaptainBeano-lz6mm]

Bisping is mad annoying. Talks about himself constantly

[@majicdude88]

Rogan is a special attraction to UFC so of course he isn’t commentating every event. How can you miss something if you always see it? Also why are a commentator’s “looks” relevant? DC is a commentator, they are there for narration and audio centric lol

[@camdenwong1574]

I think anik is still underrated. His job isn’t to break down the fight but when the other commentators get stuck in their biases and commentate from a very biased perspective anik’s knowledge really comes out since the situation calls for it.

[@java4656]

Anik: nothing, he's perfect Rogan: repeats the same points a hundred times per fight DC: gets too giddy during PPVs with Rogan, turns into a glorified podcast Bisping: makes irrelevant points relating to himself Cruz: same problem as Bisping, plus he doesn't understand the scoring criteria Felder: can be biased towards his teammates Sanko: nothing, she's perfect Gooden: perfect Fitz: perfect

[@seanoreilly9950]

joe rogan occasionally sounds strangely sad/disappointed when a stoppage happens “it’s over 😐”

[@thehardlovekid]

Anika’s job isn’t to break down what’s happening in the fight. He’s the play-by-play, so he’s supposed to be the “narrator” while Rogan/DC/Felder/Bisping/Cruz are the ones actually breaking down the fights.

i think objectively dc is the best commentator just because of his fight experience, he been wrestling and fighting at the highest level his whole life. sometimes his tips for the fighter to win are stupid, but he’s rlly smart and a funny guy

[@donaldnewell4868]

A LLM trained on past event could take over Rogan’s perch. He’s extremely predictable in what he’ll say, and rarely insightful. He was a really good commentator in the early days, but it’s the personal relationship w Dana that keeps him on air now.

[@jiriz591]

I don't like when any of them say the judges had it wrong, becasue in most such cases they (the commentators) have it wrong. The most legendary in this aspect is Rogan's parade of post-fight interview stupidity at UFC 282, but it actually applies to all of them.

[@beno22221]

[@iplaygames593]

Also the fact that Rogan always says a guillotine is tight

[@TokyoAlex]

My minor inconvenience is when the commentators don't say "round" and instead say something annoyingly colorful like frame, stanza, paragraph, inning, period, quarter, stage, era, slice, gob, etc. That is the pebble in my shoe. That is the sesame in my molars. Title fights are five rounds, not five stanzas. Arrgh!!

[@Brusttraining]

i like rogans commentary, he brings the viewer closer to the person fighting

[@user-wk4ee4bf8g]

I don't see the point. They made sense for when radio was the only thing. It's fine to have the option for commentary if you want it, but I wish there was always a choice to just see\hear the fight itself. I want analysis after the fight because people have time to watch stuff over and over and make sure of the analysis. The UFC released a cool video recently with footage and the fight audio, it was amazing, I loved it. It really sucks that we can't hear the fighters talk to each other and the impacts nearly as well as the UFC has recorded, their mix sucks so that they can sell audio ad space.
