Joe Rogan
1. Screaming "OHHHHH" after any fighter with power lands
2. Thinking every choke submission from a reputable grappler is tight
3. Giant hairy liver spotted hands
 
None of them.

Because they're all pretty bad.

Grisham sounds like he's not even a fan, sounds surprised when he sees a reach measurement lol.

Stann sounds like a "know it all", oh "I used to be a fighter so I know everything" guy.

Rogan is condescending and is always telling you how someone has a great chance to win, when they don't.

Anik is actually cool, but lacks any umph like Rogan and Goldberg do.

Cormier cannot commentate about anything outside of wrestling techniques and is always trying too hard to be witty.

Cruz is a genius analyst, but has a horrible voice for commentary.

Hardy gets words wrong a lot and always sounds way too involved in the fight for actual commentary.

Gooden, probably the best of the lot lol.
 
I'm horrible with instructions, so I have 2 guys I like for identical reasons.

Cruz and Mir

Both are fighters and understand the benign details of everything that happens during a fight.

They are both articulate and can communicate what's happening to the layman MMA fan in an inderstandable fashion.

Neither guy has shown a ridiculous bias towards a fighter while commentating and call the fight from a neutral POV.

I know it's fashionable to dislike Anik, but he rarely gets anything glaringly wrong and if you hear him talk live he really doesn't miss a beat in terms of stuttering and stammering.

He's just the boring Fox card guy, as I say he lacks that "umph" - you never feel like he's commentating a big event.

I personally like to see a Frank Mur + Mauro combo.

Or a Black Beast + Snoop Dogg combo.
 
Always liked Jimmy and Sean from back when M1 was doing the Nation vs Nation tourneys, Bellator fucked up splitting them up
 
Rogan.

1. Knows his shit
2. Articulates it well
3. Funny


Stann is close. He has really grown on me. I am disappointed when he's not calling the action.

And I do like Anik, although he's not my favorite. He's obviously not as knowledgeable as the color guys, but he's smooth and actually pretty funny.
 
Bas Rutten

because he knows his sh*t , is a legend of the sport and is batshit crazy at times and i appreciate that.
Also I quite like the dutch accent ish real nishe.
 
Hardy
1. English accent
2. Knows what he is watching
3. Not afraid to admit he was wrong when a fight turns.
EDIT: Bas is a very close second
 
Goldberg

1. He's not there anymore.
2. He's not there anymore.
3. He's not there anymore.


I kid, Goldie. Sort of...
 
Roman Mazurov and Snoop Dogg



 
Joe Rogan

He's not DC.
He's not Anik.
Goldie got fired.
 
Rogan is a retard who thinks he is a genius
Stann is good
Anik and Gooden are boring as fuck
Hardy talks too much but he is ok
Grisham so far is just a shit version of Goldie (RIP sweet prince)
Cormier is good
Cruz is a great analyst but he has the voice of a sex offender

The third reason screams you're still searching for your dad.
 
Mauro, no need to give reasons why, dude rocks as a color commentator and i would just love to see him commentating in the UFC, the new guy from the WWE just plain sucks.
