In recent years, after fans see broadcast replays of sensational finishes in UFC fights, they’ve been able to look forward to extra replays.
If the fight’s ending is particularly stunning, be it because it came at an unexpected moment or because of its ferociousness, the voices in the broadcast booth have a tendency to respond the way most people would – and it typically involves a loud “Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh!” exclamation, wide eyes and a dropped jaw.
Those same broadcasters have small cameras pointed at them now to capture those behind-the-scenes moments when they happen, and some of the most fun parts of UFC broadcasts often involve a chance to see the reactions of play-by-play voices Jon Anik and Brendan Fitzgerald and analysts like Joe Rogan, Daniel Cormier, Paul Felder and Michael Bisping.
UFC 276 took place two weeks ago, and while the main event between Israel Adesanya and Jared Cannonier took some heat for being a less-than-thrilling headliner, there still were plenty of moments in Las Vegas that elicited entertaining responses from Anik, Cormier and Rogan.
Check out the video above for some of their best moments from UFC 276. Below, don’t miss the UFC’s video of the best broadcast booth reactions from 2021, as well as our photo gallery to accompany it.
