For me, it's his overuse of "credentialed." He's constantly saying someone's a "credentialed blackbelt", "credentialed striker", "credentialed coach", etc. It would be fine if it were in relation to someone who was actually outstanding in that particular realm, but he uses it for people who are unremarkably average.
 
He repeats a lot of things at a decent clip.

And he fucking loves talking about family like he's one of those people who have no other aspirations in life than to look at his kids and that's his only metric of self-worth in his life.
 
" he's landing with a 33% Clip"

Ugh...

There's another thing we used whenever he talks about responding with jabs I may have blocked out.

Ugh
 
"Patented" always annoys the shit out of me. Not what that word means.
Says a fighter has a "Patented right hand / low kick / takedown defence".
Next card it's the exact same comment for someone else.

"Future hall of famer", as if the UFC has any sort of consistency for that.

"Setting the table for us, Bruce Buffer"

"Weighing in at a buck-55 and a hook"

Glad he doesn't do in cage interview anymore.
 
After suffering through Goldberg's tired cliches, horribly timed advertising pitches, near total inability to grasp the simplest of technical concepts, and incredibly banal and often wrong observations for fucking years I can deal with Anik. He is lightyears better than his predecessor.
 
Anik has grown on me over the years. He does have his weird anikisms.. When calling weigh ins he says "and a hook". "Seminole blow". "Seminole moment". "Wearing it now".
