UFC commentator Brendan Fitzgerald found himself in a position he would never have imagined himself when he first arrived in Mexico City to call the UFC event: Hiding under a table.
The event was headlined by Mexico’s Yair Rodriguez and America’s Jeremey Stephens; however after an accidental eye poke 15 seconds into the fight, the bout was stopped and ruled a no contest.
This sent the Mexico City crowd into a frenzy, creating a rowdy atmosphere where bottles and other objects were being flung in disgust.
Fitzgerald still had a job to do, so he was narrating what was happening amidst the chaos while taking cover under his commentary desk as well.
Fitzgerald’s broadcast partner and former UFC middleweight champion Michael Bisping recorded a video of Fitzgerald continuing to commentate from under the desk.
