Daily Debate: Do you want Snoop Dogg back on commentary if Dana White's Contender Series returns?


The UFC shook up the game a little bit in 2017 with Dana White’s Contender Series – and that including shaking up the MMA broadcast game, as well.

On the first season of DWCS, fighters got a chance to impress the UFC president for a shot at a UFC deal. Each live episode, White would pick a pair of winners to get eventual fights in the UFC.

The UFC Fight Pass-streamed live shows featured multiple broadcast teams. But one analyst, in particular, tended to draw the ire of some fighters. Legendary rapper Snoop Dogg was brought on board as a commentator. Some, including booth partner Urijah Faber, praised his comedic value and flavor. But Snoop’s lack of knowledge of the sport, as well as somewhat indelicate comments about fighters, received some criticism.

So if Dana White’s Contender Series returns this year, do you want to see Snoop Dogg back behind the M-I-C?

As part of our Daily Debate feature, we asked MMAjunkie Radio listeners and MMAjunkie readers if they want to see more of the D-O-double-G.
