Corporate Politics is some cold shit.

Don’t know how to feel about this

while this is some next level BS (since Rogan was never a fighter either and he is still employed there), but then again, the UFC is a business and can hire whoever the fuck they want.
They obviously want to pick homers and fighters. And it is their right to do so.

We can be mad, sad, etc... but it's their fucking business. Don't like? Don't watch.
 
If they want ex fighter can they stop with current fighters ( Dom )
 
Smith and Goldie > rest of the commentary team. Joe sucks, DC always just having fun, anik is a tool, and dom is annoying af.
 
Loved Rogan's UFC fights, can't believe he went undefeated
 
I think there were too many similar baldies and there is confusion between him and rogan for newbies. Even the last PPV when they all went bald headed. It was kinda funny to watch for me.
 
I like Jimmy Smith.
I loved watching him in fight quest.
I was happy he was part of the UFC, and was let down when they released him.
 
It sucks for Jimmy for sure, no question about it.

But there has to be a place for retired UFC fighters to continue plying their trade that isn't just coaching.

Keeping fighters as analysts and commentators is a good idea, and I support it.

The sport needs more pathways not fewer, but it's a shame for career pros like Jimmy.
And Smith was an MMA fighter at one point.
