With Mauro gone and Trigg fighting..who does that leave to fill the commentating booth? I have been dreading it for the ones who have to listen to the PPV because the list of quality commentators in MMA is very short.
Look no further, Pride has signed up a good commentator, although it is not his full time job you should still recognise him:
PRIDE.33 "THE SECOND COMING" PPV commentator, Josh Barnett!
JOSH BARNETT
"I am really excited to come from the ring and get behind the mike for this upcoming PRIDE show in Las Vegas. I hope to bring my insight and expertise from 11 years of pro wrestling and fighting to the booth and most of all, entertain!
I have done some commentary before and have spent many hours in front of the camera and in the ring so I have no worries about being in the commentary booth. I will also look to other great commentators for inspiration like: "Mean" Gene Okerland, Gorilla Monson, Gordon Solie and Jim Ross.
It's going to be a fun time watching fights and hanging out with you fans. Make sure to bring some beers and I'll fire up the barbeque!"
