Good news to some, bad news to others - Gus Johnson is likely staying in the MMA game. MMAFighting is reporting that Johnson has signed a deal with Fox Sports, but his Showtime combat sports deal was completely separate from his CBS deal:

"Last week it was revealed that Gus Johnson's contract with CBS had expired, and on Tuesday morning it was reported that Johnson has accepted a job at Fox. But that doesn't mean he's done as the voice of mixed martial arts on Showtime, the sister network of CBS.

Sources told MMAFighting.com that Johnson's contract with CBS was for basketball and football, and that his deal to call fights (both MMA and boxing) for Showtime was a separate contract. That contract is still in effect, and Johnson will call Saturday night's Andre Ward-Arthur Abraham boxing match for Showtime. Although Showtime hasn't yet announced who will broadcast its next MMA show (a June 18 Strikeforce card), Johnson is expected to call that event as well."

This idiot said this during the Paquiao vs Mosley fight, and I swear its word for word what he said:

"thats whats called in the MMA world; 'the virgin of a superman punch'"

and he is supposed to comment some of the best MMA fights in the world?

He got his shot and tripple failed, get rid of him ffs!
