    Why is Mike Goldberg a commentator?

    He is absolutely terrible. What is your reasoning for why the UFC keeps his goofy ass around?

      Mike + Joe is a great team. Die, Rush. Stop trying to suck up to Rob by not being a Zombie.

      Bring this noise to the Schillforce forums.

          He's pretty bad, but he's the face of the UFC, it wouldnt be the same without him.

          The guy is a robot, says the same shit during every situation on every show. I'd be lost without it.

            Exactly.

            Maybe add in some Bas once in a while on color...otherwise, I'm cool.

              Guy is just brutal

              Least credible booth in MMA, Goldie still knows nothing about the sport and Rogan has never fought MMA

              They need to put a fighter as the 3rd man all the time

                  Bas and Quadros will always be my favorite MMA commentary team.

                  Rogan is very good, aside from the occasional fight he turns into a biased nuthugging fanboy or when he's told to 'build' a fighter to tow the company storyline plans.

                  I think Shamrock is one of the worst though, yes he knows what he's talking about but the man can't make a decision on anything.

                  Anyway, the ideal commentators for me would be. Rogan, Schiavello and Bas.






                  Oh man, I made a MMA post - and it probably sucks

                    Quadros is still my favorite but SF only uses him for the challengers shows. stick him in for that bum gus.

                        Bas is fucking hilarious. I forget what small promotion he commentated a couple weeks ago...it was the one where the nutjob-tree-hugger won a title or something.....Bas was funny the whole show.

                          Flame away, but Bas sucks in the booth. He just does. He's gotten worse and worse over the years.

                          Play by play:

                          Mauro is the best play by play guy, he's passionate, knows the sport, adds humor when appropriate, has strong opinions when appropriate, he has the total package.

                          Gus gets a lot of shit, but he has potential. He's new. Why he tones down his act for MMA is beyond me. GET CRAZY, GUS!

                          Goldie sucks, but I wouldt replace him.

                          Schiavello isnt everyones cup of tea, but I love him.

                          Kenny Rice sucks. No product knowledge, he's a goof.

                          Analyst:

                          Rogan has tremendous product knowledge, and the demo identifies with him. He does root for certain guys too much. Only drawback. I odnt care that he's never competed, doesnt matter.

                          Bas sucks.

                          Quadros is FUCKING AWESOME, insane knowledge, does his homework, loves the sport and his passion comes through.

                          Pat Miletich is ok, but too dry. Passable, but adds nothing.

                          Frank has no opinion on anything. Untapped potential. He's a great talker and charasmatic, but it doesnt translate to the booth. I like that he uses wacky pro wrestling terminology like "hammerlock" instead of MMA elitist termmnology like "kimura". Frank & Barnett dont have the prowres fear, they get it that it's all the same shit. Frank even said so on the Houston show when asked why pro wrestlers keep coming to MMA. "Because pro wrestling & MMA are the same." Haha, I hope Mamba was watching.

                          Muuur talks forever and dominates the action.

                          Florian is good, better than Miletich, but nearly as dry.

                          BILL GOLDBERG was the worst, but I miss him because he was awesomely bad.

                          The Bellator Guy is a good listen.

                            Good analysis, but you are wrong about Bas.

                            And you forgot Don Frye.

                              Bas is a weird guy. I like him, but he has no business in a broadcast booth. He's a goofball.
