Weird without him fucking up all the commentary? The last UFC's have been awkward between Joe and him. Especially the Fox broadcast, I could feel this weird tension.
I felt the same way.Quote:

I am glad, however to be truthful I find Anik to be rather 'flat'. Would rather Rogan/Florian tbh. :-)
Joe would probably end up reminding him of how many title opportunities he has choked on. I feel Kenny's commentary can be a little bias while Anik just sort of sounds uninformed at times.Quote:

They should just fold Michael Buffer into the UFC already while we're on the subject. It's time to get ready to rumble I say!
I'm sure they picked Anik because he plays the role that Goldie does. Can't have two people calling the action. One at least needs to plug Naaaaaaaas energy drinks
Joe doesn't want to sell shit he just wants to talk fighting lolQuote:

"Just hours before the UFC 155 weigh-ins, MMA Junkie has confirmed that Mike Goldberg will not be commentating tomorrow's PPV event due to illness. Instead former Jon Anik, who's been in the booth for UFC On FUEL TV events, will be joining Joe Rogan to call the action. This is the first time Rogan and Anik have been teamed up since Jon joined the UFC team."
I wonder who "former Jon Anik" is now? Get Eddie back into the commentary position, with Joe! That would be some funny shit.
Anik did not mesh well with Joe. I missed Goldie
I didn't mind the combo. Anik didn't say a lot and let Joe kinda run the show. I'm sure they'll bring goldie back as soon as he is ready.Quote:

Eddie & Joe would be the shit, the return of rape choke & blow your load. Anik is too corporate
I feel like that EVERY single time with Goldie too though tbh. I think the only time I have ever thought Rogan was talking shit was when he said something like 'that was the greatest comeback in ufc history' after the Boetsch Okami fight a few months or so ago. Even then he pretty much immediately back-tracked. He was damn excited though so was understandable.Quote:

Rogan is so far ahead of the rest of the field its ridiculous. UFC events without him just aren't the same. POWERFUL Joe Rogan! :-)
Bring in bas rutten!
Joe and the Voice or Joe and Bas. Man that would be insane. I'd be just as pumped for that as a lot of title fights
Goldie without a doubt says really weird shit, and I'd really prefer if he didn't do the fights. However, the weird shit I'm referring to with Anik was like on another level. Goldie makes ridiculous claims and tells weird stories - also hypes shit up a bunch that may not be deserving of the hype he's giving it. Anik though, would just say some very strange abstract things. They would just be talking about the fighter and he'd be like, "yea, that's liberty.. writing it on a tablet, absolutely." I'd just be like what the fuck was that and then they'd just move on, but I felt like that happened probably 4-5 times.
