UFC Commentator Jon Anik Excited for New Deal with Paramount+

Fans of UFC are in for a treat as the organization dives headfirst into its new era with Paramount Skydance. The excitement kicks off with UFC 324 this Saturday in Las Vegas, followed by UFC 325 in Sydney, Australia on Feb. 1. With fresh faces like Kate Scott joining the studio talent lineup, viewers can still count on familiar voices like play-by-play commentator Jon Anik, alongside Joe Rogan and Daniel Cormier.

Anik, a mainstay at UFC since 2011, is no stranger to the changes in TV partners, having transitioned from Fox to ESPN and now to Paramount Skydance. He’s thrilled about the potential of a new and improved television format that promises more bells and whistles than ever before. From graphics to music packages, Anik believes fans are in for some exciting new experiences.

One of the most significant changes for Anik is the affordability of accessing these numbered events, which were previously pay-per-view. For just $59.99 a year, fans can now enjoy every UFC fight, making it much more accessible. This shift in pricing is a game-changer for many UFC enthusiasts.

Adding to the excitement is the introduction of new talent like Kate Scott. Anik is full of praise for Scott, describing her as a magnetic talent with a natural oratorical style, comedic value, and a wealth of experience in broadcasting and combat sports. Her addition to the team is sure to enhance the overall viewing experience.

With this new deal, there’s also a possibility of some cards airing on the CBS broadcast network. Anik is eager for this opportunity, expressing his excitement at the prospect. As UFC continues its journey into the Paramount era, the future looks bright with plenty of new and exciting additions on the horizon.
