    I'm surprised he's fighting again,I honestly thought his arm had to be quite damaged.I know he used it after but jeez that looked bad.Kudos to him I guess.He should have this one in the big without much problem anyway, although I didn't study his opponent between here and UG it looks like he's about 3-11.

    I'm a Joe Warren fan,but I can't actually listen to him for more than a minute.Is he commentating again?Lot's of fans can't stand listening to him,what a terrible choice for a commentator imo.I think he's funny,but after a minute I find him almost unbearable.I'll watch a Japanese audio version (again) tomorrow with the UFC on I guess =/

      yeah *** man .. I am nobody to talk about anyone and all, I didn't realise it was Joe Warren at first, was going to write comment asking "*** is up with this commentator ?? Seriously Gil Melendez would do a better job .."
    but nah people always deserve a chance and benefit of doubt .. Joes Credentials speak for themself but man .. He's as stiff as a board .. I dunno feels like he's sitting on something really sharp or getting pinched real hard / pain being received - while trying to comentate.. where is fight professor ??

    I actually used to love Stephen "The Fight Professor" Quadros,but these last 5-10 years or so when I listen to him I cringe.He always sees the fight going to the guy getting his ass kicked lol,and his commentary is just pushed,tries to be too witty and I just think he's horrible now.

    I have a feeling he kind of stopped watching mma and just takes jobs sometimes or something,cause he was once good but now seems clueless to me.15 years ago I think it was ok to get away with just being a commentator and had Bas to fall back on for the technical stuff,making him more tolerable,now he's high up on my worst commentator list.
