Rap superstar and entertainment mogul Snoop Dogg made his name in the music business with a laid-back, smooth style on a microphone. But Snoop believes that signature cadence could change just a bit with a live fight to call. “I think that some fights will get me upbeat and over the top because it’s based off the fight I’m watching,” Snoop told talk-show host and minority UFC owner Conan O’Brien. “If it’s a real entertaining fight, and it’s action-packed, then I believe that my commentary will be action-packed, but for the most part, I’m just playing it to the fight.” Snoop joins UFC Hall of Famer Urijah Faber to provide an alternate commentary stream for the UFC’s brand new “Dana White’s Tuesday Night Contender Series,” which debuts tonight on UFC Fight Pass. Veteran broadcaster Dan Hellie joins longtime fighter Yves Edwards for a more traditional broadcast all at tonight’s debut , while ESPNU host Brendan Fitzgerald and UFC lightweight Paul Felder step in on July 18 to provide a second crew that will alternate during each week of the eight-episode season. Each week featured five live fights that stream on UFC Fight Pass from The Ultimate Fighter Gym in Las Vegas.
