ESPN’s Jon Anik to Team Up With The “Human Weapon” Guy For Bellator Announcing Duties
(Chambers is the one who looks like he’d give himself the nickname "Hollywood.")
Bellator Fighting Championships – also known as one of the organizations to fire War Machine – announced via press release their announcing teams for both English and Spanish broadcasts. The Spanish portion will be done by former King of the Cage champ Manny Rodriguez and some guy known as George X (ed. note: you can do that? just change your last name to an "x"? that’s awesome).
Getting the nod for the portion that most of us will be able to understand is the duo of Jon Anik, from ESPN’s “MMA Live,” and Jason Chambers, from The History Channel’s “Human Weapon” series.
Chambers actually used to be an MMA fighter, competing as Jason “Hollywood” Chambers, though his most notable fight was a loss to Thiago Alves at an Ironheart Crown event in Hammond, Indiana back in 2004. He tapped due to strikes in the first round. Fun fact: those rape charges against him were dismissed, so he’s available, ladies…
If you’re curious how you can watch these guys to see if they might possibly rival Tito Ortiz’s genius on the mic (no way), the Spanish-language version will run on ESPN Deportes and the English one will be on Bellator’s website. Poor Jon Anik. What’s the guy got to do to get on an actual TV?
