I enjoy watching Dan's fight/fighter breakdowns more than anyone else I can think of, really likeable.

I like Dan.


Not sure why he's commentating a boxing match tho.

Maybe in case Connor takes him down or starts spamming leg kicks

Maybe just to make mma fans feel a little more comfortable. I personally don't watch much boxing, and I'd rather listen to Dan Hardy than dudes I don't know. Smallminded I guess, but true.

Also probably to give background color on Conor. You know what these commentating types are like when they don't really know who's who. It's kind of painful. No amount of preparation is quite enough to pull it off.

Like when the WSOF guy called Danny Castillo "Coach Danny Steel" and no one knows better to offer any kind of correction...that kind of thing.

Edit: what I really mean is, they need someone who can look at a move and say "Artem taught him that".

I think this means they want an mma guy on each broadcast team
I sure as fuck hope Schaub isn't doing commentary, I can live with the preshow, but please not the whole card
