Is Joe Rogan the greatest commentator in sports history?

[WarDosAnjos]

Tonight really cemented his legacy as an all time great for me. So many phenomenal calls. He's transcended the sport itself and became bigger then the fights he commentates, he's a highly intellectual cultural icon who is extremely multifaceted. Never before has there been a sports broadcaster with such a multidimensional set of skills.

His podcast is the best radio show in the world where he consistently has great interviews with top quality guests, he's a absolutely hilarious stand up comedian selling out shows world wide and on top of everything his color commentary is exquisite.

You can literally pair this guy with anyone and he just shines. He was great with Goldie, amazing with DC, AWESOME with Cruz and now phenomenal with Smith. The guy's very aura just creates chemistry and he's a legend for it.

He's also incredibly non biased. I love how he's able to put his personal opinion on fighters aside and just give a grounded opinion of what's going on, never using hyperbole. I've never seen this type of quality broadcasting before where he's on point with literally everything he says I definitely think it's time to accept him as the greatest sports commentator of all time, but he's risen so much more above that. He's the face of the UFC and a larger then life hero

Agreed. Everytime he screamed OHHHHHH when a strike from Al would come within 5 feet of Khabib and miss I sorta had to sit back in awe of him. Not only as a commentator. But as a leader of men

 

[Verace]

totally biased in the zabit and rose fights

terrible overall in the main event

 

[Congo66]

Not using his key line of FEAR IS NOT A FACTOR FOR YOU was his downfall.

[DopeZach]

Impressive thread kind sir.

 

[Jorge Luis Borges]

Overall, he's probably been the best MMA commentator thus far. But I don't think he's currently top three in the UFC.

TS is a cool guy

 

[Jon's Drug Dealer]

If anything, he felt completely redundant tonight. Jimmy Smith and Rogan should never be paired up again.

 

[Taric]

Agreed. Everytime he screamed OHHHHHH when a strike from Al would come within 5 feet of Khabib and miss I sorta had to sit back in awe of him. Not only as a commentator. But as a leader of men

First post nails it.

 

[SuperNerd]

Name 5 other sports commentators and I will attempt to take you seriously.
