I wanna say Rogan. He has been around the UFC a very long time and also did other things in the sport. The guys who competed in the sport prolly didnt watch everything he has. But who knows

I put gg because he is a big fan of not just mainstream or a certain company. I would wager that I watch more fights than everyone on that poll except gg and rogan.
Punkass & Skrape
Those dudes have been traveling around hitting up local orgs for YEARS. I'd bet they have seen more fights than probably half the people on the list, if not more.

I heard @TMA_presents has watched every fight in the history of UFC.. that has to be more fights then anyone.. cause ya know it doesnt count unless its in the UFC.

Ya those two watch and know about all the guys coming up. I hear Joe talk about it more but he always knows quite a bit about a fighter that just makes his debut even when the guy hasnt been fighting in anything but lowerl level circuits

I think all Dana White does is watch fights, MMA is his baby, and hes always watching the compitition and scouting for future UFC talent. Joe Rogan probaly also watches a bunch of the fights.

I read a few of his tweets, but he starting talking about lacrosse (which is for feminine men & transgenders), so i started following @_jump3r
Off the bat, my initial guess was D.W., but then ole Rogan he's been around the UFC since "12", but back then the cards weren't rolling out as often, still.
When I think about Herb Dean, one has to realize he just doesn't ref at UFC events alone, that's got to up his numbers.
I was wondering why Joe Silva isn't on this poll. Someone mentioned earlier that Dana scouts smaller organizations looking for talent, but it's actually Joe Silva who does that

I should 've had Joe Silva in place of Randy for the poll I'm sure he's got a few under his belt.

Trying to get Stitch and Joe on the poll as well, he's been to a lot of cards.

Did I misread the question? Is it who has seen the most events alive, or actually watched fights. Guys like Schiavello that are announcers first and fans last don't tend to watch MMA for fun, but only when it relates to what they are announcing on (previous fights of fighters they're going to be commenting on during the broadcast) whereas hardcore fans watch UFC/WEC/Pride/One FC/Bellator/Dream/Affliction/EliteXC/Shark Fights and even some local shows (I know I left a bunch of orgs out). I would be willing to bet big money that Rogan has watched waaaaaaaay more fights than Schiavello or Dana. Rogan is an actual fan first that just gets to announce for the UFC (Dream job much?). I put GG because he was a fan first as well before he started working inside the MMA community, and back when he used to interact with us regularly on the forums ('08 and '09) he was super knowledgable about a wide range of fighters and orgs.

How am I the only one who voted Shiavello? dude has been at this since 1990 or 1991....

Your not alone I voted the voice as well, the man has probably seen more than anyone on the list, but I would say Silva and Selby probably have seen more than anyone with all the local cards they view looking for new talent.
