The Moment the UFC Lost Me

Ok maybe not THE moment, but one.of them.

When I realized that the commentors were hamming it up at big moments with disingenuous exaggerated reactioms for the camera.

So fake and forced. Antithetical to what the UFC used to be.

Once they had a camera permanently mounted at the commentators, it was cooked

Based on this reaction I can only assume a fighter just spontaneously exploded and his guts are spread across the canvas.

When Bisping got gifted unearned wins against not one, but two Silvas.

He got gifted a “win” vs Hendo too.

One of the most egregious things I’ve ever seen.

My brother in law stopped watching MMA because of that.
To my knowledge he hasn’t watched or kept up with it since.

Anderson’s knee KO was a thing of beauty

But the buff Bisping got from that victory gave him championship aura and belief sooo

When they got rid of Goldie. :frowning: :frowning: :frowning:

Kind of falls under the “careful what you wish for” category.

Not really, the commentary with Goldberg has been objectively superior to all the slop since him

When the guys in the booth are selling a shit fight, usually trying to hype a wmma match, or when Rogan is riding one fighters jock especially hard, it gets old fast.

I remember people bitching about Goldie back in the day, but I loved him. He was a little over the top, due to apparently being coked up all the time, but I felt he genuinely loved the sport. Or at least his job. Anyways, ain’t the same without him. :frowning:

Remember when he ran past Dana backstage naked mid interview and Dana was not impressed .. he was gone 6 months after that

They claimed he chugs 13+ Red Bulls over an broadcast lol .. that shit would kill you faster than coke

I stopped caring once they banned groin strikes. Might as well watch competitive jump rope.
