He have time to train?

I was wondering the same thing.

Rogan tied up with hookers and blow?

Don't you mean

Escorts and Weed?

All hanging out in an Iso’ chamber.

How could I forget the chamber.

Saddened to hear that we’ll be hearing Todd Harris.

by bigweeze on Jun 7, 2010 3:22 PM EDT reply actions  

Yeah

Todd Harris really depresses me. He should just stick to WSM.

Maybe he'll talk to Kenny about his signature guillotine.

100% agree

Todd Harris is awful for WSM.

Paul Dickenson is vastly superior.

It was great listening to him during the winter Olympics (he called the sliding events for the BBC). The British women’s bobsleigh team had named their sled “Magnus” after the WSM champion. Paul then insisted on pointing out that we couldn’t tell whether they meant 4-time WSM Magnus ver Magnusson, or 1998 champion Magnus Samuelsson. That man takes his strength athletics seriously.

I like using semi-colons; they make me feel smart.

Look at the way he wears that suit. Guy has a shit ton a class.

by Goonisis on Jun 7, 2010 3:22 PM EDT reply actions  

Yeah, the difference in his appearance from fight time to mic time is huge.

Kenny does a great job for ESPN, saw him on Sportsnation and he was clownin’ with the rest of ’em.

Florian and Todd Harris? Gag me. They should just set up a soundboard that uses the commentary from the UFC game and substitute that for live commentators, you really wouldn’t tell the difference.

Kenny could very well become the Terry Bradshaw of MMA, only without the accent.

by INGO B on Jun 7, 2010 4:30 PM EDT reply actions  

Kenny’s just one of those guys that’s not meant to wear a suit and tie. He looks so uncomfortable in that picture, and every outfit he’s worn so far on TV looks like it came from his dad’s closet.

Yeah

Zuffa is so strange sometimes. Jens wanted to do commentary, yet they let him go and give Kenny double duty.

by William Wilson on Jun 7, 2010 5:16 PM EDT up reply actions  

Actually

I think Jens didn’t want to do commentary. He wants to keep fighting.

by Electro Boy on Jun 7, 2010 5:20 PM EDT up reply actions  

I like Jens’ commentary.

He has a hard time expressing his thoughts sometimes, but I love his enthusiasm.

by Electro Boy on Jun 7, 2010 5:30 PM EDT up reply actions  

The main thing Kenny needs to work on

Is that ridiculous smile.

I actually quite dislike Kenflo's commentary

I also hate Couture’s commentary, Shamrock’s and Schiavello’s.

I enjoy Pulver’s commentary though, and Bas’, the occaisional Baroni is ok.
