Cain Velasquez vs JDS Trailer + UFC on FOX promo during MLB game

That baseball trailer was awesome. And the fact part of the deal is to plug PPVs is going to drive sales up big time. War UFC.

Hopefully a few broadcasters for Fox know their shit and mention something cool about fighters, instead of just laughing at a name like John "Bones" Jones.


Maybe it's the testoterone, but I wanted to punch that guy in the face. Fool betta recognize!

This will help big time.

They'll get much better with time. It was the first time they had to do it.

I must be missing what was wrong with it anyway

I have read some comments on that beast and apparently that is his style or something like that. Anyway, mainstream sports casters shouldn't be expected to deliver UFC promos like that rock solid right off the bat. Give it time. Calm down.

If the UFC on Fox deal still hasn't sunk in yet, maybe this video clip will help. Dick Stockton reads a promo for the UFC on Fox debut featuring Cain Velasquez vs. Junior dos Santos during Fox's Saturday MLB Game of the Week. (Joe Buck's baseball-hating self had the week off.) Stockton doesn't stop there, sneaking in a plug for Jon Jones vs. Quinton Jackson as well. Tim McCarver sounds like his usual bumbling self, for those of you into the schadenfreude thing. ("Jon 'Bones' Jones, all right!")

As surreal as it is to see UFC ads on network TV, the UFC just sort of feels right at home on Fox. Dana White said this is the network they always wanted to be on, and, while I'm suspicious of anything Dana says, I want to believe it. I have a hard time picturing Mike Emrick and Eddie Olczyk slipping in UFC plugs during breaks in play of national NHL games. Or Bob Costas shilling for cagefighting during that hamfisted Football Night in America Sunday night NFL pregame show.

Ah nvm, I cut off that clip before the Bones-Page throw in

This fight is going to be huge.
