Norton might be getting booted from the UFC Unfiltered podcast soon.
1 2018-11-06 by ThatFightBloke
Not sure if anybody here gives a fuck, but figured I'd mention something interesting I heard between Norton awkwardly guessing fighters records and dribbling about who he sat two rows away from at the UFC.
Norton bitches multiple times on the newest episode of UFC Unfiltered about possibly "losing the gig", while also making vague awkward references to contract negotations just like he does with Sirius. His cohost even mentions how if Jimmy gets kicked off the show he'll carry on because he has kids to feed... classic.
Norton's such a self-important twat on the show, and it's ridiculous that ex-pro fighter Matt Serra is 10x funnier than the "comic relief" on the UFC podcast.
TIMESTAMPS 5:35 - "I have a feeling that I might be on my way out, I enjoyed my time here and it was a fun gig"
I can't be fucked going back through and getting more timestamps, Norton's constant "sports expert drunk guy at a bar" shtick is unbearable.

Worm having any part of UFC is just as baffling as to why Pennywise hair Chimp face is part of WWE.
1 bry03cobra 2018-11-06
The difference is Sam is an actual WWE fan. Jim just wants to suck the dicks of the UFC fighters.
1 Magicmetalknight 2018-11-06
Yeah as bad as Sam is on wwe, at least he's an actual fan and is knowledgeable, unlike the fraud worm who didn't know what the octagon was a couple years ago.
1 TheWelfareMan 2018-11-06
The guy never heard of mauro ranallo until they had him as a guest and he owns half a dozen pride shirts, he's a fucking tool.
1 TheRealJesseVentura 2018-11-06
Sam is completely qualified to do the WWE gig, including his psychopathic traits. I hate the guy, but you can't just be untruthful.
1 redtrilobal 2018-11-06
This.
I know wrestling and UFC, Sam knows his shit, and nearly everyone sees through Jim's half-assed facade.
1 Cumias_folicles 2018-11-06
He does have an encyclopedic knowledge of WWE. But so do a lot of other homos. He is still unqualified for any tv gig because he is awful to look at, has an awful voice and is not a good broadcaster.

Jimmy ain't going anywhere.
1 EncinoEscobar 2018-11-06
Matt sounds rightfully disgusted when Jimmy starts the cutesy faggot "act". Also "he hits really hard" is not the analysis I expect from MMA's premier organization.
1 ThatFightBloke 2018-11-06
"Oh I didn't watch the main event I figured I'd go home and get the train instead, who won?"
AHAHAHA FUCKING HOME RUN CHIPPAH
Also when he randomly guesses a fighters record... how can he be considered a professional broadcaster?
JIM: "For some reason I had it in my head he was 6-1?" is actually 20-4-1
1 EncinoEscobar 2018-11-06
Didn't he pull that shit with the Khabib Conor fight? The biggest fight in his employers/mma history. He should be fucking sacked. Plus he made some crack about wanting to sniff a female (genuinely) fighters feet when Frank Grillo was in and it fucking died, you could hear the disgust in the room.

That's actually funny though.

Isn't a comedian's most important skill supposed to be to know their audience?
1 imcrapyall 2018-11-06
He does and every morning it's pure silence.
1 F_H_Rileys_MaitreD 2018-11-06
Jimmy isn’t known for his prep as much as he is for his PREP.
1 userx9 2018-11-06
If you've listened to the Jim and Sam show lately you'll have noticed that Jim's mind is going. And so is mine for listening brotherman.
1 Woodaby 2018-11-06
As long as Jim is on Sirius, he'll be on the UFC podcast if he wants to.
The cross promotion is worth it for the UFC.
1 EncinoEscobar 2018-11-06
"if he wants to" Jimmy was lucky to hang on to his coffee clutch show as it is, he has leverage over no one, never mind a 3bn dollar company. Also, there is no cross promotion. A half dozen autist queers listen to Jim's show.
1 Woodaby 2018-11-06
If you believe it, you can achieve it. Good luck with that.
1 CarniesAndRubes 2018-11-06
That was some real F-got shit you just said right there
1 Woodaby 2018-11-06
"F-got" is worse than anything I've ever said in my entire life. Say faggot, pussy.

Take the hit, you eff got

That's ok. I thought about quitting this site anyway.

1 jizzajam 2018-11-06
It's not even close
1 yevyoyevyo 2018-11-06
Yeahbut that's not Serra's fault. Maybe the UFC should try pairing him with Ari if that's possible
1 Mr_Nigel_Igger 2018-11-06
Jim's unlikely to bring anything to the table for a UFC podcast post O&A. He now lacks the exposure/audience the show gave him and his stand-up hasn't progressed or gotten more popular so why keep him on.
1 rahtin 2018-11-06
And he's a casual fan, and there's nothing wrong with that, except if you're on a fucking show that's entirely about the sport.
1 djblaze666 2018-11-06
He knows nothing about mma. Probably just a fan because the grappling (men’s divisions) gets the blood the pool in his pecker.
1 late_50s_why 2018-11-06
Nah he's a fan because Joe made billions off it

Just what the hardcore MMA fanbase wants to hear, a guy who thinks it's cute to get records and statistics wrong and didn't know what the octagon was a couple years ago.
1 TheWelfareMan 2018-11-06
He's fucking terrible at it, there's no reason to keep him around.
1 leedsjr 2018-11-06
Life?
1 jizzajam 2018-11-06
I haven't listened to it in a long time. Seemed like a shitty infomercial for UFC, too many boring phone interviews that went nowhere, would never shit on a bad card, as far as an mma show it was garbage. Sprinkle in Jim's tired bits about tranny's and jerking off, served no purpose as at this point Matt Serra is way more interesting than Jim anyway. Matt needed Jim at first just to get used to the logistics of talking for an hour (steer the ship of you will) but now I bet you could replace him with someone Matt is friends with in MMA and it will be a better show. If Jim was replaced with Chris Weidman I'd listen immediately

When I was a bouncer, I always loathed those “expert” types. They rolled around on the floor for 45 minutes like some panting faggot at some “Introduction to Jiu-Jitsu” class at Crunch and all of a sudden they’re shouting obscenities at the drug-addicted gladiators on TV like they know what the fuck they’re talking about.
1 DinkPinch 2018-11-06
“When I was a bouncer....”
Story’s already bullshit.
1 F_H_Rileys_MaitreD 2018-11-06
I was a bouncer on and off for 22 years until last year. I’ve stated it here many times.
1 SorryFiMAGADog 2018-11-06
Nice blog, stupid.
1 F_H_Rileys_MaitreD 2018-11-06
I’m sorry you didn’t grow up and remained a petty, hateful midget in adulthood.
1 SorryFiMAGADog 2018-11-06
Take a nap. You're cranky over a "nice x, stupid" post.
1 DinkPinch 2018-11-06
“My last job...”
Story’s already bullshit.
1 mcb84 2018-11-06
Even the things he's interested in, he can't be bothered to take an interest in.
1 TheMidnight_Rider 2018-11-06
His know-nothing statements followed by "..uhhhhhhh.." are just the height of pointlessness.
1 redtrilobal 2018-11-06
How will I get the enlightening opinion of a morose, dead-serious "comedian" who clearly knows nothing about the sport, only providing one-word generic descriptions that could apply to any fighter?
1 Kenn_Kennerson 2018-11-06
I'm sick of him referring to his broadcast jobs as "gigs" like he is a blue collar guy scraping by with manual labor projects when he can get it
1 Cumias_folicles 2018-11-06
God forbid Jim put any effort into his career. And he probably wonders why he never blew up like Burr and CK. Step one would be putting even a little effort into some of his projects other than his podcast where he puts on silly hats and does a played out character.
1 Senators86 2018-11-06
I don't know how he's lasted this long at that gig. He's a 50 year old who sucks cock and constantly whines about how tired he is - yeah, that'll go over great with the UFC demographic.
1 googledhowtobehuman 2018-11-06
Stop saying "gig", you sound like a peckah.
1 Themenwithnoname 2018-11-06
No knowledge, interest, funny and passion. Yeah boot him out the door. He only got the gig through WME agency. No other merit.
1 halfwholediminished 2018-11-06
listening to jim talk about mma is like listening to tony hinchcliffe talk about liking pussy.
1 SorryFiMAGADog 2018-11-06
Or Jim Norton talking about "big, meaty pussies" my God is that gross and fake.
