Chael Sonnen and Jim Ross to color commentate at Battlegrounds MMA
Chael Sonnen: “Together, we are going to make the BattleGrounds MMA event one of the most exciting extravaganzas in combat sports history.”
BattleGrounds MMA: ‘O.N.E.’ from BOK Center on Friday, October 3 in Tulsa, Oka. will feature an epic commentating team.
No one has been able to (trash) talk in combat sports like Chael Sonnen since Muhammad Ali. “The Gangster from Oregon” will be joined by the former Voice of the WWE, Jim Ross.
As a longtime fan of MMA, to be asked to call the fights for the BattleGrounds MMA event is amazingly exciting for me, said 2007 WWE Hall of Fame inductee Ross. I’ve broadcast NFL and XFL games. FOX Sports boxing and WWE action, but MMA is a new adventure and one that I’m enormously excited about contributing to. To launch this phase of my broadcasting career in my home state, and with Chael Sonnen at cageside makes it an ideal opportunity and a bucket list experience.”
Sonnen too naturally had something to say.
This is going to be a TV event that any MMA fan won’t want to miss, said Sonnen. I am thrilled to be working with a legend like Jim Ross and, together, we are going to make the BattleGrounds MMA event one of the most exciting extravaganzas in combat sports history.
