It is quite surprising to see both their reactions under the post. For Anik, UFC 284 was extremely special in a lot of ways. The former ESPN anchor joined as the play-by-play commentator of UFC in 2012. Anik became the voice of UFC 284 as the lead commentator. The former UFC champions Michael Bisping and Dominick Cruz accompanied him, and the trio’s voice made the fights all the more exciting. On the other hand, ‘The Notorious’, who is all set to make his comeback to the octagon, was eagerly waiting for the match; his comment makes it quite clear.
