Does anyone know who the lineup is this time?
I missed Joe last time. I like his enthusiasm and wit.
No one knows?
According to my postal connections, Joe Rogan will be behind the mic at the UFC and that is good news.
Gary Hughes
Yes, Joe is announcing at UFC 51.
Excellent.
Who is working with him?
Please don't bring back Kerri Kasem. While she was enthusiastic, she was annoying as hell. Even my friends that had never seen the UFC before commented on how bad she was
Rumor has it that Shannon Briggs will commentating during the Sylvia-Arlovski fight in an apparrent attempt to talk trash whoever wins and build up interest for a possible showdown with the winner.
Briggs is looking to get into MMA quickly due to his recent woes:
"Briggs is looking to get into MMA quickly due to his recent woes"
Is that fact or speculation? I'm curious because I think that domestically he would be a great acquisition by Zuffa...talk about attracting a cross-over audience... If its fact, I think Zuffa's job of signing him gets easier.
Joe is great, very enthusiastic and colorful.
Wide audience my ass, Briggs would have the boxing
scribes writing about him and it would be good exposure, but
hot damn he can trade, and I'd like to see him in there w/
Arlovski or cabbage or Sylvia b/c those would be entertaining
fights
Rogan is great at the mic.
