News "The voice of MMA" JON ANIK makes history!

[Only Here for Attachments]

There is only one "The Voice" and thats Michael Schiavello

IT'S GEUD NOIGHT OIRANE!

 

[generalyum]

I don't like some of the stuff he pushes. It's dangerous to the sport

What are some examples? Genuinely curious

 

[TheChance]

And Jimmy Smith is working where? It's a fucked up world

 

[dipstickjimmy]

I think I'll always consider him the Michael Cole of MMA.

Jon Anik is the Michael Jordan of MMA commentary. Just what MJ was to baseball.

 

[nintey]

I really don't understand how anyone can like Anik. His Robotic voice and horrible timing with advertisements has made the fights less enjoyable for me. He has no enthusiasm or authenticity. I thought he would be replaced quickly, but nope.

 

[RichardHarrow]

Aniks good peeps. Much deserved .

 

[TRYHARD 2001]

IT'S GEUD NOIGHT OIRANE!

He's got a smile that'd make a stripper nervous!

My nipples could cut glahhss!

THA BIG KA-BOSH!!!

Schiavello is legitimately funny and insightful; to this day, I don't know why the UFC never gave him a try. Just one vanilla goof after another.

Jim Ross is universally loved.

Jim Ross doesn't need commentary awards.

Jim Ross commentates the way Jim Ross commentates because Jim Ross is Jim Ross.

EWw!!! Anik?? Lol . Just no.

 

[Rataria]

Open the fridge he's out cold!

Nah love me some Anik

Anik, Rogan and DC combo are the gold standard Imo

GOAT is Bas and Perry

Shouldnt it be "close the fridge, he's out cold" ?

 

[Rataria]

He must be related to Ari Emmanuel

 

[Ibm]

Mauro, Jon, Joe.... absolutely killer combo right there.

 

[Changeisinevitable]

Michael Schiavello is the real voice of MMA.

 

[sonhow]

Few years ago Id have said hes Michael Cole of mma. He is the most pushed even when no one likes him.
But I dont think hes that bad anymore. While Cole sucks more than ever. So in a way he is reverse Michael Cole.

But Goldie the voice, goat, gold standard whatever. They should bring Goldie back as he also brings out the best in Joe.

 

[Takes Two To Tango]

Congrats to him, he's level headed, balanced and well spoken guy. Love listening to him.

As a non sports fan, which of you in the majority - who think anik is absolute garbage. Not just mediocre but a "testiment to the state of" the product - can point to as a credible, likeable, accurate PBP man?

Can't say goldie either because the majority hated him too. During the 2010's the only time anyone spoke favorably of him on SD was when he did Goldie-ism. Same for Rogan: worst. Suck. Die. Quit. Cant say Mauro either, as much as i like him hes too kooky for the UFC's product.

Hate to repeat myself but as a predominantly mma watcher i cant think of any more. But in order to rank him so low you must have plenty of others to use as a reference point. And go!

Don't exactly know why, but I get the sense he's a worm. Never liked him. Never really liked Goldie either, but he is the OG at this point.
