Aside from the news that Dana White, and not Reed Harris will be promoting WEC 48, Joe Rogan announced on twitter that he and Mike Goldberg will also be doing the commentary for the promotion's first PPV venture.

I hope Rogan shows up stoned.
Keep Firing, Assholes!
The world on a string doesn't mean a thing.
It's only real in the way that I feel from day to day.
i hope he doesn’t. i would be a really change from what we are used to.

HUGE leg kick
I think even my leg kicks would make Joe go: “Huge leg kick”

alright…now just put the UFC logo all over the place instead of the WEC logo and let’s be done with it.

ive been saying it forever
why not just call it UFC lite or UFC bushido?
Why not just call it UFC?
You’d be merging 1 weight class and adding 2 more.

I wish they would. It would be great to add those guys to the UFC PPV mix all year and get their big names bigger exposure.
And I always thought it was weird that they have an overlapping weight class with the UFC when it’s the same company.

Thank you!!!
So I guess they are finally absorbing the WEC just without announcing it. At least the WEC on PPV. Haha!

Has anyone heard this Goldieism yet?
I think it was at UFC 102 but there is video afloat where he says “LEG KICK TO THE MIDSECTION!”
They will enhance the WEC broadcast. Definitely.
The Seahawks have traded my signature to the Detroit Lions for a 6th round draft pick.
he’s been doing that forever. im actually surprised that he’s never said “facepunch to the body.” i’ve heard him say “leg kick to the head” even. it’s pretty incredible how the guy literally never improves his commentary, and he’s clearly just pretty dumb. very Ron Burgundy-esque, completely reliant on the mic in his ear. You never hear on other sports any announcer throwing out the sheer volume of incorrect shit that Goldie does. I really think he needs to go, and soon. it’s embarrassing. he’s like one of those dolls you pull the string and has like only 5 phrases it can say. sometimes he can be entertaining, but his on air personality just feels so campy and manufactured.
This may be an incredibly dumb noob question about WEC...
but it has a 155 division, right? Are Ben Henderson, Jamie Varner and Don Cerrone nowhere near the top 10 overall in the 155 class? Does Henderson even rate a shot at a shot at a title fight if WEC merges with UFC?

it is weird though
How does that champ feel? I’m the LW champ!! just not the real one!! (Just like Frankie Edgar!)

If it looks like a duck, sounds like a duck, and is promoted by ducks
We should just call it the UFC, right?

I know you guys dislike Goldie,
and that’s deserving I guess, but you are seriously undervaluing Goldie on this one.

I think this is a great move as it will make the casual(buy some UFC PPVs and watch some free WEC but not hardcore fans) fans more comfortable hearing announcers they recognize and they’ll associate WEC with the UFC which in no way can be a bad thing.
Plus even when I can only hear Stephan Bonnar I still picture his creepy ass face staring at me so I’m glad he’s not calling these fights

Absolutely. Plus I love most of his ‘nonsense’.

I do too.
Hmmm...
I like Bas but I think I’d take Mayhem over him in my dream team.

I think he's funny
His voice when he gets excited sounds like a scalded cat.
