    Jesus ****ing Christ, that ******* was annoying. Every single time a punch is thrown "OH NICE JAB FROM THE CHAMPION!!". Not to mention the fake voice, it felt like commentary for 8 year olds. I hope they fire that guy before Canelo gets his next opponent, rumor has it he's called out Broner.

    I have to agree with the post above you; his voice is annoying. I've watched fights with him doing his thing before and it sounds fake. It reminds me of that movie "Bedazzled" when Brendan Fraser's character was in the NBA and that commentator was overdoing it.


    He seriously could have fit right next to these guys

    Mauro Ranello is great for mma not so much for boxing

    He'd be better off doing WWE.

    I guess I'm happy to have Mauro because I hate Gus so ****ing much.

    Honestly I don't know why the hell they don't have Brian Kenny as the main play-by-play.

    That phony voice is annoying and I think it was before the second Juanma/Salido bout he mentioned that he had christened a certain MMA fighters elbows as "hellbows" when the term has been used for years.

    That was pretty funny when CroCop scared the **** out of him in the Pride days.
