Unless that "Mars Attacks" movie made him a primadona, I don't see how he wouldn't go for it. He'd give the show instant recognition with a lot of people in the older age brackets (I remember my dad sat down and watched a UFC when I was in high school just because he saw Jim Brown on it). Not only that, but he just adds class. He's just got it. I just watched Ali/Foreman on ESPN today and it cinched it for me. Goldberg + Rogan + Brown? Plus the occasional fighter sitting in? Perfect.
"Talk to me!! Talk to me!!" lol
No thanks.
When I first read the title of this thread I thought, "Idiotic remark."
But, I got to thinking this guy has something here. Jim Brown has the laid back relaxing analyst view.
Rogan is a MMA fanatic and very emotional which would compliment a Jim Brown well. Rogan is also very knowledgable on MMA.
Goldberg is good where he is too.
Brown to replace someone would be terrible... but a 3'rd man announcing would be nice and Brown has a soothing voice.
DON'T YOU EVER SAY THAT ABOUT A WRASSLER!!
does jim brown do a lil BJJ or MMA of any sort ?
TTT 4 Jim Brown!!
The only reason he lost his job is because he rightfully criticized Blatnik for being clueless after the Gracie/Severn fight.
Jim Brown is awesome and they should have him back, even if it's only for a show or two IMHO.
Get that stuntman from UFC 2 back!
Go for Jim
Any of the UFC oldschoolers remember Big Jim's PPV fuckup while introducing Joe Son?
"On the other hand cough John Sue"
(Bruce Beck)"Joe Son Do"
"JOE SON of course!"
No thaibox NO!
Jim was awesome in the early UFC's.
I thought he was going to smack Blatnick after Royce beat Severn at UFC IV.
Jim Brown? zzzzzzzzzz
Blatnik was much better. Get Pulver back too!
BEST LACROSSE PLAYER EVER
You guys are looking at this with your little Tapout guy masks on. Take them off and think like your parents for crying out loud. The guy is instantly recognizable with his appearance and his voice, he knows how to call fights, and everybody respects him. If a primadona like Bill O'Reilly or that tard in the NYP wants to criticize the UFC and Brown walks in the room, you know what's gonna happen? They're gonna shut their trap, because the only thing middle aged white men love more than red sports cars and their daugher having a slumber party is JIM FUCKING BROWN. Don't ask me why this, it just is.
Linkage - you could be describing OJ Simpson,,, I mean before the unfortunate accident.
I love how Jim Brown would always relate his comments to football in some way. They'd be introducing some fighter: "He's a submission specialist with good striking ablity..." and Jim would cut in with "Played a little high school ball."
Always found him hilarious. He should come back if only for a novelty guest appearance.
Bring back sumu and judu too!
