It's absolutely shameful how bad the commentary for tentpole events has gotten in the UFC.
Last night was easily the lowest point in the league's PPV history. The problem is that the UFC doesn't seem to value or understand broadcasting very well, so it leans on people who know nothing about it. Make no mistake. Broadcasting is an artform.

- "He's in deep doo-doo" - Joe Rogan
- "Jan's biting on Adesanya's feints too much." - Rogan/DC
- "Drew Dober is the most underrated fighter in the UFC!" - Rogan
