Jon Anik had a unique advantage of seeing Sphere ahead of UFC 306, something his colleagues Joe Rogan and Daniel Cormier didn’t get to experience. He described it as an exceptional broadcasting experience and expressed gratitude for being able to witness it firsthand. Anik is eager for another chance to participate in a similar event in the future.
Rogan, attending his first event since UFC 303, was equally impressed by Sphere. Anik noted that even someone as seasoned as Rogan was taken aback by the spectacle of the venue.
Despite some criticism about the fight card for UFC 306, Anik believed it was a remarkable and historic broadcast. He expressed a keen interest in being the main commentator for future events, particularly those with the caliber and excitement anticipated in UFC 307 and UFC 308.
Anik envisioned the potential of holding a future event at Sphere, suggesting matchups like Khamzat Chimaev vs. Robert Whittaker that could have a lasting impact on the sport. He wrapped up by emphasizing that while UFC 306 was an incredible experience, he hoped for one more chance to be part of such a significant event.
