Any news on who will be commentating the HDNet part of the card?
Trigg and Schiavello?
Maybe Rutten and Rice?
Or, better yet, it could be part of a live modcast…
;-)
Better be The Voice, I wish he would do all Strikeforce matches and say Goodnight Irene to Gus and Mauro, they are terrible
I’m thinking that the Strikeforce announce team will be one of the first changes Zuffa makes when contractually able to do so…
Unfortunately, Schiavello works for HDNet and Strikeforce is with Showtime. Until then, do what I do: Mute Mauro.
I would not object to Rogan doing his Mauro Ranallo impersonation at least once a card, great clip
Both Masvidal vs Noons & Cavalcante vs Wilcox are main card quality fights
