It has been a long time coming. Laura Sanko will make her UFC color commentary debut at this Saturday’s UFC Vegas 68 event.
The news was announced in a press release from the promotion on Monday.
“Taking the next step to join the UFC commentary team has been a goal of mine since I began my broadcast career,” Laura Sanko said in the release. “It is an honor to walk in the footprint of Kathy Long 30 years after her appearance on UFC 1. I consider it a true privilege to be part of the team that is a voice to our incredible fans, communicating the fighting art of each man and woman who steps inside the UFC Octagon.
