I honestly have never heard of him. Is he any good?

MMAFighting reporting he is not replacing Goldberg, according to their source. They say he will work as play-by-play announcer but also work in studio.

So he will be doing basically Goldberg's job plus another one on top of it?

Sounds more like Anik's job if you ask me. Maybe that means Anik moves up to top play-by-play guy, which i'd be fine with.

Anik and Goldberg have basically the same job though. Goldberg just tends to work PPV and Fox where Anik does almost everything else. So he is the new Play by Play guy they hired to fill whatever vacancy was needed now that Goldeberg is no longer with The UFC.

Mike Goldberg is a human soundboard. They could replace him with Bill Goldberg for all I care and it wouldn't make that much of a difference.
