Mike Goldberg on the MMA Hour

He's in very good spirits. Good interview. Says he's willing to do commentary for another organization.

Goldie may have his faults as a commentator, but he seems like a great guy. I hope he gets another high level gig in MMA or hockey. Going to be strange hearing Rogan call fights with Anik.

The fact Dana never talked to him after they decided to no renew his contract was complete bullshit.

Ariel brought up hockey, Goldberg said he is up for that, too.

Total BS. But considering it's Dana, I'm not at all surprised.

Unfortunately he was already given a shot at NFL football (on Fox) and was fired after one game, because he was downright awful. I've always enjoyed him commentating for the UFC and this isn't to say that he wouldn't do an absolutely awesome job in another sport, i'm just saying he may not get the chance because of that one performance

Lol fuck didn't see this thread

At the end of the interview they were hinting that he has something in the works. I know Bellator would take him, but I think Sean Grande"s contract still has years on it.

He has done NHL for years. Think in Detroit and in MN. My guess is he works for Bellator or most likely gets the NHL gig in Las Vegas as they get a new team next year.

Sean Grande 's commentary and spray on hair are equally brutal. Would rather see Bellator hire Quadros. He's professional and he understands the sport. I can't imagine they would be interested in Goldberg but Coker seems desparate to hire anyone with previous ties to the UFC, so you never know. I hope Goldberg lands on his feet with an NHL gig--seems like a nice guy.

I thought he got fired for telling a fan who was ragging on him via twitter to go fuck himself. 

If I wouldn't have already lost all respect for Dana, this would have made me lose all respect for Dana!

say what you will about Goldberg but it wont be the same. ITS OVER!

Actually makes me sad. You throw furniture out, not people. If WME actually cared about the legacy of the sport they would thank Goldberg for what he has done. Sure he's made mistakes that we've busted his balls over, sure he's tripped over his words, sure he's made ridiculous claims that Rogan has to correct him over...but as flawed as he was..he was our Goldie. When you love the sport you have to respect someone who has put the time in. It doesn't matter who they bring in they just won't be "virtually identical".

Rip Goldie. Thanks for the good times.

Wow, not a word from Dana?!? I guess I'm just not an asshole that's why I'm not running a huge organization. I use to think highly of Dana years ago. I just think they handle everything really fucked up. Goldberg was classy on MMA about it, he seems like a genuine, good guy.

after all those years, you still don't know Dana?
