Petition to add Laura Sanko to future UFC Broadcasts

[rjmbrd]

Ive never seen you say a ything about anik being in the booth

He's competent but unimportant for the action being called.

Someone has to be a confident professional that reads commercials and tells us to eat corn nuts, that is what Anik does.

So tkd champion with 20 years of jitz and 20 years of commentating/watching the sport has no exp with the sport.

Simp confirmed. Unreal how some of these WKs and simps respond LOL. Brainlets for sure.

The guy is saying MMA fighters. Rogan doesn't do MMA. By this argument, Mayweather has more experience.

I'm pointing out the stupidity of the "competitors are the experts" logic, which I point out in the second part of my post, which I guess you haven't read up to. Take a second shot at it, I'm sure you'll get it this time

 

[Mohawk Banditó]

Dom doesn’t play well with others, but he is very knowledgeable. They should put him in Din’s role and move Din to the announce team.

I'm fine with this. He's one of the few fighters who translates his MMA skill into good commentary, while being continually self sabotaged by his lack of social skills.

What is even funnier.. sanko actually has fights..

 

[DEV.Woulf]

I didn't really care for her in the role to be honest. It was like she was being drowned out by Mike and Brendan and her tone didn't really fit in with them. Not trying to put her down because I really love her in the interview role (and I used to watch her YouTube show with Megan Anderson before their catfight over James Krause). Maybe she needs to settle and will improve over time but I'd actually prefer Dom last night and that says a lot because I hate his voice lol.

 

[listrahtes]

LOL

This's the most pathetic thread I've ever seen in my whole entire life, and the worst comment section ever, if you want the UFC to die, then put this woman on ppv

How's she better than Dom, DC, Rogan when they have much more experience at the sport.

this's the age of woman worshippers, I wish I was born 60 years ago

She is nothing special but at least she doesn't have a chip on her shoulder like Dom ,Bisping and Cornier. That's something. UFC has. Exemplary bad commentary.

 

[TRUS8888]

It's early but imo Sanko is coming across as a female bisping

She's trying to sound professional and saying words just for the sake of it

Maybe she'll get more comfortable with experience?

 

[Hellowhosthat]

She's pretty good imo. I think she puts more work in than a lot of them. I was impressed that on Road to UFC she seemed to have taken the trouble to find and watch the tape of obscure Indonesian fighters so she knew their styles and strengths and weaknesses.

 

[Hellowhosthat]

The more I see how Dominick Cruz deals with verbal interaction, the more I think he's on the spectrum to some degree.

And no I'm not making a joke.

I'm 100% sure Dom is autistic. I don't think that's a bad thing and it probably makes him a lot more meticulous in his prep etc but yeah.

 

[Substance Abuse]

There's so much crying in this thread, lol.

 

[93confirmed]

Yes, please.

 

[WOLVERINEKILLS]

You nailed that. No one wants to hear him get huffy or confrontational with the other announcers.

 

[Brigfa2]

Or just watch porn to get rid of your thirst

[BangBang]

I found it seemed like she didn't know when to interject and she stepped on people/was stepped on. She may do better in a 2 person spot or with time but it felt a little awkward at points.

Definitely lacks rizz and needs some polish. She may be decent one day but I wasn't a big fan.

Lmao at the white knights in here. If this was a new male commentator the comments would be different. "He's awkward, he has no energy, he has no charisma." Pathetic.

Exactly my read on it.

Sounded hesitant and awkward and what she did say was limited to generalised observations that didn't contribute to the broadcast. It sounded amateurish.

Hopefully she'll mprove

Of course he is. It's fairly blatant.

 

[Luthien]

This thread is moth to the lamp with hatred for women posters

 

[Mind Mine]

Ween her in more gradually and see how it works. No need to add excess pressure nor rock the boat too quickly

 

[Pakman]

she's awful

 

[Mohawk Banditó]

This. I want her to get a chance because she hasn't had the opportunity to fuck up entire fights like the others have, but she still isn't perfect. There's valid criticism about her tone being relatively flat or needing to find time/chemistry with the others, which will only be harder with their ever-rotating lineups.

Just start with making her a standard on the fight nights or an Anik backup or in place of Fitzgerald or something
