This is my recent post from Bloodyelbow. Follow me and tell your friends.
It has become clear to me over these recent months and years that Mike Goldberg is no longer an asset to the UFC announcer and analyst team. He is a good promotional man and has a great voice but he has increasingly delivered poor performances. His job is the Play-by-play announcer, this means that he is spouse to tell the viewers at home what is happening in the fight. His partner Joe Rogan's job is to be the color commentary, this means he contributes analysis, back round information, explanation of movies, etc. I have noticed that Joe Rogan has been playing both the color commentary and play-by-play roles. Mike Goldberg is not delivering on his end of the bargain. I have read comments and stories in this blog and others that have discussed Goldberg's weak commentary and overall lack of knowledge about MMA. The UFC has grown so large that Goldberg no longer a suitable commentator. When the UFC was smaller he was good but at this level he is not. This will be followed by a petition to remove Mike Goldberg
To Remove Mike Goldberg
Mike Goldberg is the worst commentator I have ever seen or heard. He hasn't got a clue about what's happening and he should not comment at all. I am really tired of his ,"punches in bunches" comment. I am sure he is just dying to say ," Well Joe, you know he's really perfected that Foxey Boxing technique." He irritates me beyond belief. He is obviously very well connected. How else could he keep his job when he is surrounded by the most knowledgeable people in M.M.A. Everyone, except him of course, knows he's a douche! We need him to go. He is a walking talking ( and sitting ) insult to anyone that has ever trained for any sport!
