Just want to say that he did a good job commentating and made some really good calls. Especially when he said it looked like Tito hurt his foot on that kick, and after the fight Tito actually said it felt as if he broke his foot on chuck's knee.
Rogan's consistent, and his enthusiasm is the best in the sport as far as commentators go. Rogan just speaks his mind, and while he has made dumb calls, it doesn't really affect his overall commentating ability. I'd really like to hear Rogan with either Blatnick(A guy I find to be really overlooked) or Frank Mir.
A lot of people are giving Joe a hard time for being really(And I mean really) enthusiastic over Cro Cop. Well, why shouldn't he be? It's Cro Cop!
Off topic but how big of a narcissist do you have to be to think anyone cares what "Damone's Fight of the Day" is. I like you Damone but man thats funny.
Joe is a very good commentator. I don't think he is over-hyping cro-cop, he is just a fan like the rest of us. I for one would probably be hyping crocop even more, that's just how excited i would be to get to see him live.
as for fight of the day, I actually think it's an excellent idea and am jealous that i didn't think of it first.
I'm pretty sure no one cares. I just included it, because I needed to have a sig that didn't consist of a picture. Maybe I could go back to the old "I'm sorry, sir, but I'm gonna break your leg" Bas quote.
Edit: Glad that someone digs the fight of the day concept. Go ahead and include one yourself. I'm always up for watching new(Or re-discovering old) MMA fights.
Ya, Joe is great. Mike Goldberg is kinda goofy, and he talks like he is reading a dislecsic teleprompter. "Looking for an attack with the knee Rich Franklin did just a minute ago." WHAT?
He can call a dog a dog, though. I remember him being pretty down on the fight just before the Franklin L'ouesaux (how do you spell that) fight, and after Matt Hamill's first match on PPV.
Well, I guess you'd say he starts out enthusiastic about everything, but he's willing to change his mind.
I don't know if it's just my TV or the Thai networks, but I find Randy's voice is not that clear and distinct. Found the same with Frank Mir. Goldie, like Rogan, has a voice that comes through very clearly.
Goldie is okay- lots of energy and enthusiasm.
But I afree that Rogan is always good. He knows his fights and fighters, and he can really explain the ins and outs of grappling.

lol I totally agree & I actually emailed UFC after 63 telling them the exact same thing (I felt I needed to vent :laugh: ). Goldberg talks utter mince & Joe's constantly correcting him. OK he is enthusiastic but he just doesn't have the knowledge to be there.

"afree?" anyway...possibly a reason as to why Joe's voice comes through very well is because of the constant screaming at contestants on top of a building or on a helicopter hundreds of feet high on FEAR FACTOR.
I like Goldberg's enthusiasm but I cant help but wonder what he really sounds like at home. He has that radio announcer like voice that they use in cheezy ads for Monster trucks and Insane blowout sales.
