5 wildest reactions to finishes by UFC commentators

#4. Jorge Masvidal vs. Ben Askren - UFC 239

UFC 239: Masvidal vs Askren

When Jon Anik was doing his promotional plug for Modelo, he was forced to hold on to that last syllable as he was in shock at what happened just before him. It only took 'Gamebred' five seconds to dispose of his adversary at UFC 239.

"The fight clock is brought to you by Modelo-Oh!"

Anik exclaimed as Masvidal sprinted at Askren, who ducked right into a flying knee.

The commentator booth had three different but appropriate reactions: Anik couldn't sit still, Rogan had to reach out and grab Felder to make sure it was real life, and Paul Felder couldn't muster a word.

The MMA community blew up after this knockout, but seeing the immediate and organic reactions of the analysts sitting cageside shows just how wild this sport can be. With one of the most wild knockouts in MMA history comes one of the most fun reactions from the UFC's commentators.

#3. Juliana Peña vs. Amana Nunes - UFC 269

UFC 269: Amanda Nunes vs Julianna Peña

As arguably the best female fighter in MMA history was forced to tap, Daniel Cormier's voice hit octaves that they've never hit before. Amanda Nunes' run as bantamweight champion was a lot of things, but "competitive" wasn't a great adjective for it.

Nunes ran through anyone and everyone, so of course she would be a massive betting favorite when slated against Juliana Peña. The first round of this fight went fairly well for 'The Lioness' -- she landed heavy strikes and had a good amount of control time. Things switched into the favor of 'The Venezuelian Vixen' in the second round.

Peña's jab was unforgiving. The volume and reletnlessness seemed to mentally break Nunes, who's used to her opponents crumbling under pressure and power. As Peña took the back and the belt of Nunes, the commentary booth erupted with shock and excitement.
