Kelvin Gastelum to make his studio analyst debut at UFC Utica

Add Kelvin Gastelum to the list of fighters giving the commentary game a go.

FOX Sports announced Thursday the middleweight contender and former TUF winner will make his debut on the studio desk commentary team for UFC Utica on Friday night.

Gastelum will be joined in studio for the FS1 card by Kenny Florian, Brandon Fitzgerald, and in an interesting twist, welterweight champion Tyron Woodley. Gastelum lost a split decision to Woodley at UFC 183 at welterweight before Gastelum embarked on his current welterweight run.

The cageside crew for UFC Utica, which is headlined by the bantamweight showdown between Jimmie Rivera and Marlon Moraes, will feature Jon Anik on play-by-play and Jimmy Smith on color commentary.
