Now that we’re in the middle of the excitement of UFC on Fox 1, the UFC’s network debut and the anticipation of UFC 139, we have a chance to look back.
Mike Goldberg is our subject this time. Goldberg has been a voice that signified the UFC for quite some time and he is well respected by fighters and by fight fans. However, there have been a few bumps and bruises along the way.
Let’s take some time to point at his mistakes and laugh at him…

In an effort to take some of the growing workload off of the backs of color analyst Joe Rogan and play-by-play man Mike Goldberg, the UFC announced today that it has added veteran sportscaster Jon Anik to its broadcast team.
Anik, who has anchored MMA Live since 2008 and hosted several ESPN pre-UFC shows, will be involved with the November 12 Fox broadcast in some capacity and will likely take the reins of commentating duties for the next season’s weekly live broadcast of The Ultimate Fighter on FX among other events.
“We’re very happy to have Jon as part of the team,” UFC president Dana White said after making the announcement at today’s UFC 137 press conference.
“It’s a dream come true. I believe the UFC’s a strong a brand as there is in professional sports, but what really drew me to this organization was the people behind it. I think as strong as this organization is, it’s the people behind it,” the 33-year-old Boston native said Thursday. “It’s a well-oiled machine, I just hope I don’t get in the way. I’m very excited to get started.

Anik’s last day at ESPN was today. A successor for Anik at MMA Live has not been named, but if it’s Franklin McNeil, we predict a drastic drop in ratings.

Joe Rogan is not only known for his work as the color commentator for the Ultimate Fighting Championship.
Earlier this year, the comedian-turned-commentator returned to film a new season of Fear Factor, a reality show that featured him as the host from 2001 to 2006.
“It doesn’t seem real,” Rogan told TV Guide Magazine. “It seems like some sort of bizarro dream world. But I’m looking forward to it. The idea of sitting at home and watching someone else host it would have driven me crazy.”
“What I brought to Fear Factor the first time I hope to bring to it again—a background in competitive athletics along with being a stand-up comedian,” Rogan continued. “This show is tailor-made for me.”
The show will be broadcast on NBC and will include eight new episodes, which will begin airing on Dec. 12, 2011.

Renato Laranja doesn’t take kindly to people dissing his beloved Brazilian homeland, and why should he? The dude is a 27-time Mundials champ.
It doesn’t matter if the guy talking smack about his country is a UFC commentator and the host of Fear Factor. Renato gives Joe Rogan no pass, even if he wants to avoid a face-to-face conflict with the dangerous BJJ black belt, because he “talks a lot of stuffs.”
Laranja has issue with Rogan’s penchant for smoking “the heefer,” because he feels like kids who are fans of his work in the UFC and on TV will start smoking it to emulate Joe.

Both sides make some valid points.
Renato makes perhaps the most well thought out argument of the exchange when he points out that weed was harmless back in the 40s and 50s when “black guys would smoke the herb and listen to some jazz hecords,” but he says that times have changed and that pot is now a “super heefer” which is a “hecipe for disaster.”
The question is, when are we going to see this guy take on Chael Sonnen? That fight would sell itself without any marketing by the UFC.
