Dominick Cruz commentating

[TheToneZone]

Crazy to have a fragile ego AND a superiority complex, but somehow he manages it.

You must not know a lot of short guys

Funny thing for me is, I used to like him. I thought he was on point, Dan Hardy level who was also great imo.

I think at some point he was told how narratives work and he has not adjusted well. It's almost like he is second guessing himself on what to say.

I think this also explains the crazy - way off like what the fuck are you watching - commentary we hear during many fights. It's certainly not just Dom there.

This is whaty happened to me as well. Thought he was the best out there and then he started dropping the ball all the time.

The rest are just as bad though, I think they have been doing it for too long and there is a mix up of things, the narratives they are probably asked to follow and then they are just too comfortable at work, Thats usually never a good thing.

Shanko does a better job than most of them, I like her now.

Is it just me or is Cruz such an absolute joker of a commentator?

Just one fight tonight for an example, Alateng secures a dominant mount on Kleydson, pummels away, opens him up with a vicious elbow. Kleydson gets it to half guard. A minute in now, Cruz says this is where Alateng will keep because he's done all his damage here. 5 seconds later Alateng goes for mount again which is where he actually done all his damage. Cruz also never admits when he's wrong.

A fight recently Cruz said this fighter won't lose because his opponent is bloodied up, yet the bloodied fighter won the decision.

"Can't lift there, can't lift there"

Cruz is a terrible commentator. No enthusiasm either or excitement when something happens, like a finish...and always gives shit takes.

Cruz's "always right know everything monotone commentating" is the worst. He never fucking shuts up. Lol

He’s the worst out of all of them for me. His voice, his attitude, everything is just horrible.

Agreed, It's gotten to where I can't stand him now.

Dom is not my favorite, but he does do some good technical breakdowns...Sometimes. Sometimes he flubs. He takes himself too seriously. Tough Job i bet...

I must be one of the lucky ones because the commentary has never been a big issue for me. I just tune it out i guess. It has to be really bad for me to take notice.

SD = Jon Jones Dickriders, Cruz haters, DC haters, with a hint of Fedor worship. Same old threads.

I like that he puts other commentators in their place sometimes. Plus, he's not afraid to call something out as bad if he sees it that way.
