Who is the biggest cocksucker? Seriously, I am not sure I can pick a winner. Rogan might have the upperhand, I can't remember the last time an announcer annoyed me so much.
Rogan is far, far worse than Lampley, the way he goest overboard everytime a solid punch land, event thought it clearly has no effect, and the way he ketp on sucking Silva cock or trying to make us believe Clementi-Maynard or, especially, Silva-Cote was entertaining was pathetic. No objectivity at all, you cant take him seriously
he is definitely an elitist, like some of those sherdog posters used to be when PRIDE was still around.
Joe Rogan's most commonly used sentence when describing a UFC fighter: "He has UNBELIEVEABLE striking, PHENOMENAL Jiu Jitsu, INCREDIBLE stamina!" Or sometimes he'll switch it up like: "He's got INSANE cardio, PHENOMENAL striking, UNBELIEVEABLE takedown defense!" I could guarantee a guy with a 0-0 record would also get such accolades from Rogan when stepping into the octagon. Rogan sure knows how to hype up those UFC boys.::
Lampley is wayyy better then Rogan was/is/will be. Lampley would slap the shit out of Rogan like he was that chick with no hands.
Thing is, Rogan might go further over the top, but I think his enthusiasm is genuine...I don't think he's towing any party line, he's just a real, zealous fan boy. Lampley on the other hand is a cynical bastard, he basically talks guys up because they make his bosses money.
When you strip away Rogan's fanboy enthusiasm, he is very knowledgable about the sport. And unlike Lampley, he is actually trained in the sport he is calling, so he understands all the subtle nuances that only someone who has been there would know, and expresses them well. He can be a bit over the top, but I don't mind. TFK
Personally I like Rogan. Sometimes he goes a little overboard, but he's a big fan of the sport and the athletes. I can't fault him for that. However, I do believe he came all over himself last night when McFedries got choked out.
this post was brought to you by bud-light, its the drinkafuckingbility..... .....i don't mind him as much as the other guy been watching ufc quite reguarly over the last few months now....i am enjoying the sport a lot more now, because i am starting to understand it better etc.... but the presentation is really grating
I don't mind a guy being a fan. But when the crowd is booing a fight don't try and tell us it was a great fight. It would be nice if he could call a spade a spade but he just won't allow himself to say anything that took place in a UFC octagon was boring/bad.
I've seen some lousy crowds that have booed pretty good fights. From time to time you get an uneducated crowd who only wants to see stand up and don't appreciate the beauty of the ground game. They'll boo what is a good fight. TFK
That particular crowd did seem a bit impatient as evidenced by the entire card. Silva/Cote definitely justified some booing and it wasn't entertaining despite Rogan's urging.
Thats how I feel. He can be a bit grating at times (who isn't when you have to listen to somebody talk nonstop for 3 hours?), but overall I think he's great.
I've seen some lousy crowds as well. But I think the crowd had some reasoning behind some of the booing in this one.
No doubt. They pay to see the widely recognized P4P king and he plays patty cake for 2 rounds before his opponent blows his knee out. I was booing Silva in my living room and I didn't pay the price of admission.
Yeah, I wasn't happy with the way Silva fought the fight at all. I think the crowd was displeased. We all wanted to see anderson put on a show, not just show us how elusive he is.:nono:
Rogan used to be cool..but now he's just a carbon copy of Dana "The Tool" White...He must of called Anderson Silva "p4p the best fighter in the world" 20 fucking times the entire show.It kills Dana's soul that the best fighter in the world didn't want to fight for him..damage control at its best and unfortunately its working :(
yeah, I am a big fan of Silva, but he did come off horribly arrogant. The cool thing about Fedor is he is his own man. He doesn't care that Dana White calls Silva the P4P best, he calls his own shots and lives his own life. I just wish we got to see him fight more.:crying:
I know. I just have felt like we are missing out on some great fights in the middle of his prime since Pride was bought. Just being a selfish fan::
