Last week, Bellator announced it had signed of a pair well-known voices in mixed martial arts in former Strikerforce play-by-play man Mauro Ranallo and longtime UFC commentator Mike Goldberg.
On Monday, the promotion clarified what each man’s role will be for Bellator’s historic first show at Madison Square Garden on June 24.
For the Bellator NYC: Sonnen vs. Silva main card, Ranallo will have the call alongside stalwart color commentator Jimmy Smith, while Goldberg will anchor the desk for the event.
Meanwhile, during the earlier portion of show — promotionally being called Bellator 180 — Goldberg and Smith will call the fights cageside, while Ranallo anchors the desk.
