I'm going to vote for Dan Hardy.I think he brings the right combination of objectivity, technical reading on-the-fly and general colour commentary.

I can't stand Dan Hardy. Biased and spews pure nonsense during the fights. Not to mention that horrendous accent. If I had to vote it'd be for Jon Anik.

Have a feeling that the answer will be Rashad Evans real soon.

No idea what you're talking about MassaBruce. Dan Hardy is typically objective with great analysis, but still with a fun personality. He and John Gooden are maybe my favorite team lately. 

Anik is solid. Cormier is pretty good. Rogan is classic but lately I prefer some the newer guys. 

Cruz is annoying as hell. He gets super argumentative at every little thing.

"typically" so you do know what i'm talking about. Rogan has lost it, I agree. Used to be informative and excited now he just rambles on until somebody gets finished so he can scream. I like Gooden myself but again I cannot stand Dan Hardy. He's terrible.

No. 

"Typically", as "in most cases", or "usually."

No one is perfect. Hardy is better than most.

Dan Hardy is really underrated, I prefer the UK commentary over the regular cards honestly. I also miss when KenFlo used to do color commentary, he really is just the best in the business. I don't know why everyone's saying Anik is good when he's a play-by-play guy, he literally just narrates the fight and reads **** off of cards, he's not an expert. Paul Felder is also surprisingly good, they need to put him on more cards when he's not in camp.

Why do you hate Dan Hardy Bruce? He has a true understanding of what he's talking about, and I've never picked up on him being overly biased. Every commentator is biased at some point, watch Dom Cruz call a Jeremy Stephens fight.

Really? You didn't watch Till vs Wonderboy? It was disgusting. And I hate the UK accent personally. Its so annoying.

MassaBruce, Liverpool people have a specific accent that's almost as bad as a downtown ****ney english accent. They're not all annoying, I like the british accent that's in every movie about fiction.

If you wanna ignore the obvious don't try to make conversations about it.

No, I watched it. Doesn't everyone kiss Till's ass at all times? Most people think he's the second coming of Jesus, I feel like it would have been the same if DC or Cruz was commentating

I currently don't like the British because they're letting foreign invaders take over their country.

As far as Dan Hardy, he's just a meh commentator imo, C- or D+ for him.

I find these allusions to jingoism and xenophobia disconcerting and frankly just sad.

Can't remember if it has ever happened but I'd really like to see a Dan Hardy and Jon Anik combo. Rogan has really gone downhill lately. I get the impression he doesn't want to be there half the time...

I find the fact that people on here only pick UFC fights when there's hundreds of quality promotions to be sad frankly.

lmfao. anybody that has more posts than predictions is only here to spew their opinions. Which is something this site needs less off. We need more informative people. Who actually watch all these fights from other promotions and update the Wiki's. Not just a bunch of circle-jerking dorks pretending to care about prize-fighting.
