Franklin McNeil is the boss!

Franklin Mcneil is a jackass!! This show will never make it on tv with that man..

the “my sources” line is so over used….

by the worlds toughest nurse on Dec 4, 2008 7:03 PM EST up reply actions   0 recs

I came here to exactly write that -“blank is telling me” or “I just talked to”. Report it like news jackass, don’t hide it. Seriously this guy needs to go. Also they didn’t give Yoshida any credit. He’s gonna tear kos up in the clinch.

Agreed, they should fire him and hire his “sources” for the show. Every single thing he says in second hand knowledge. You couldn’t beat an original opinion outta that guy

Franklin puts facts on the table when questioned, how is that bad? he’s actually delivering the original opinions from the guys that the questions surround.. even if they take in a new guy to the show it’s gotta be someone with those sources that McNeil has, i wanna know things for a fact not just seeing someone giving his opinions..

The point is that hes a jackass. he cant speak without stumbling over his words, he’s just not a good commentator!!
stephan, kenny, even kenny’s brother was pretty good..

They should get rid of the bit with sherdog too!

I like how he gives straight info, but most of the time its obvious or already known info. He definitely has good contacts in the sport, i just want someone who has been in the sport longer then a year or so. He just doesnt seem to know MMA in-depth as well as other guys. Im not saying he doesnt know his sh!t, just that other people know it better. He only got this job because of his boxing commentary pedigree.

I dont think he’s very good at all.. he may give some good facts but he cant finish a sentence without stumbling over his own words… And imo that matters
They should stick with kenny, stephan, kennys brother was pretty good. Anybody but Mcneil!!

by mike22 on Dec 4, 2008 8:18 PM EST up reply actions   0 recs

Stephan is too creepy. Older kenny was ok. But i agree McNeil needs to be replaced.

by NameNotRequired on Dec 4, 2008 10:35 PM EST up reply actions   0 recs

Older Kenny lol… his name is Keith lol

hes a douche

by Jizzo on Dec 4, 2008 6:38 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

Any info on Feijao and where he’s gonna end up???? Also, I would love to see the UFC bring in Mamed Khalidov. Maybe at 185 instead of 205 though

by Crowls on Dec 4, 2008 8:18 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

im not saying this in a racist way or anything but the black guys is a douche. like i never usually watch the segment cuz its so long but i had a bit of extra time tonight and like even florian is mocking him for quote on quote his sources. the guys biggest problem is he thinks hes big shit and has all these cool fighters as his friend but ya hes a joke lol

by jeff on Dec 4, 2008 9:06 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

Hey Jeff.. Y do you have to put it like" the black guy is a douche?".,. its obvious he is the only black guy on the show…y can’t you just say McNeil is a douch ..Y does color have to be added to that statement? The thing with racists is they always start a statement by saying " I am not a racist but…".. Come on dude.. its 2009 almost

by BAHIANO on Dec 4, 2008 9:43 PM EST up reply actions   0 recs

lol that would have taken way too much work to actually read his name

by brendan on Dec 5, 2008 1:34 AM EST up reply actions   0 recs

The host is also a twat.

by Dennis on Dec 4, 2008 9:22 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

How so? What is wrong with you people? You find a problem with everything.

by R-Dizzle on Dec 4, 2008 10:10 PM EST up reply actions   0 recs

what do you mean, you people? lol!

by brendan on Dec 5, 2008 1:34 AM EST up reply actions   0 recs

The only problem I have is that they do not show enough of Molly and her BOOBIES!

by naturalshadow on Dec 5, 2008 2:54 AM EST up reply actions   0 recs

Kenny’s improved both as a fighter AND as commentator. He used to be pretty bad. Also, Franklin’s really not that bad. He’s not the typical commentator personality.

by Clayton on Dec 4, 2008 9:56 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

McNeil isn’t supposed to be a commentator he’s in the show to be the expert.. Jon Anik is the host and the commentator!

by RoB on Dec 5, 2008 6:28 AM EST reply actions   0 recs

1. no more calls to sherdog, i just forward through that
2. no more “crunching the numbers” or whatever it is, again, just forward through it
