| Subject: Former WWE announcer Jim Ross teams up with Chael Sonnen Thu Sep 04, 2014 2:18 pm | |
| Two of the most colorful characters on the microphone in recent memory are set to team up and announce an MMA pay-per-view next month.
Chael Sonnen, a two-time UFC title challenger and former Fox Sports analyst, and Jim Ross—a WWE Hall of Famer who called pro wrestling for nearly four decades—are set to commentate Battleground MMA on October 3.
The Battleground MMA event will mark the first time Ross calls the action inside the cage.
The card will also be the first time Sonnen calls a pay-per-view event, though he did a ton of pre-fight and post-fight analysis when working for Fox Sports.
Battleground MMA takes place at the BOK Center in Tulsa, Oklahoma, and is headlined by a lightweight contest between Ryan Couture and Jonny Carson.
Will Ross and Sonnen end up being a color commentary team for the ages or will their personalities not mesh well and be a total flop as an announcing pair?
