For The Love Of Broadcasting with Jon Anik For The Love Of...

Hello friends. This conversation is a really special one for me as I got to talk about sports commentary with a man who knows more about it than I do, Jon Anik. Jon is the lead play-by-play commentator for the UFC and he's been a friend and ally in the sports biz to me.
During our chat we talk about how Jon graduated as a journalist, started in print media but soon aspired to be a commentator. After angling for various gigs, he eventually landed some work in football (the American type) before being offered a seat at Bellator 1!
Jon and I joked about our respective voices and how and why they have changed and comparisons to other sports broadcasting roles. We talk in depth about how we both prep for a UFC broadcast and how differ we are from one another and how we are similar. So if you're an aspiring commentator or a behind the scenes geek, this is for you!
As always I'm keen to know what you thoughts on the conversation. Hit me up @johngoodenuk and let Jon know too @jon_anik
