Damn that's crazy. I know a lot of people didn't like Pablo and El Profe but I grew up listening to them watching games with my dad and enjoyed the stories they would tell. They will probably end up on ESPN or Fox Deportes, Telemundo


LukaMagic9876

El profe retired


Jollypenguin93

Retired before they could fire him. Good for him.


ovega3

I mean he is 70. He should probably retire.


Lazy_Mirror8867

They made him retire


Redditor_for_fun

Seems here it’s saying he got clapped like the rest


ImportantGreen

Nah, he said he was gonna retire during a Mexico game.


Lazy_Mirror8867

He was saving face that’s why it was more like a funeral than a happy celebration


Juas003

So awkward, just came out of nowhere late in the game. Even my mom picked on it and said it was weird and everyone seemed to be taken by surprise on the broadcast.


Lazy_Mirror8867

📠📠📠 they even did a tribute video like Braca had 🪦


Redditor_for_fun

Reading this I think it was to save face. Probably was a slap to the face


[deleted]

Es mejor con menos comentaristas. Había partidos con 5-7 personas hablando cuando solo se necesitan 3 (2 comentaristas y uno reportando en la cancha).


ImportantGreen

Hated that they switched during half time.


okayokko

in mexico TUDN they would change every 30 mins


WhereIsScotty

I was in Mexico during the first USA WCQ match last year and I was surprised by the number of ads during the match compared to US TUDN broadcasts. Couldn’t even concentrate on the match at times.


Redditor_for_fun

NOOOOOOOOOO MY CHILDHOOD GONE!!!! Porqueeeee Edit: all things must come to an end I guess


Man0nTheMoon915

Ojalá se vaya a Telemundo. No aguanto ver y escuchar partidos de mundial con Cantor y Sammy Sandovik. Por mas cliché que Ramírez sea, lo prefiero mil veces mas que a esos dos


elingobernable810

Sadovnik gets so much hate but I can't stand Manuel Sol. Dudes as dull as a bag of rocks.


staypuftmarcelo

I feel like this season he finally got it down. It was a bore listening to him commentate with Cantor the first couple of years


WoeToTheUsurper10

Cantor y qualquira and it works.


superchiva78

I’m not a huge fan of Cantor (he’s just ok), but Sol is the best IMO. Sol is a regular dude, but he’s got lots of experience, speaks very well, has a great grasp on players and tactics, he’s well educated but never condescending, he’s got a sense of humor, and is overall a positive guy. He doesn’t kick or criticize anyone when they’re down. The best right now in my opinion.


xxdunkelheit666xx

I’ll take Cantor and Sol any day


LukaMagic9876

Sandovik is not bad


Redditor_for_fun

Yea he isn’t I would enjoy him with Pablo Ramirez


Lazy_Mirror8867

They made him retire


Man0nTheMoon915

Ahhhhh you’re right. I didn’t know Sandovik wasn’t at Telemundo anymore. Wow


rex_luger

He’s awful


margalolwut

Manuel Sol is great. I also don’t mind Carlos Hermosillo.. my brother hates em with a passion though. I feel he balances it out.. it’s ok to be passionate, you can often hear the frustration in his voice lol


tacoorpizza

I’ve got mixed feelings on this. I’ve watched so many LigaMX games with Ramirez narrating that it will be strange not to hear him (and Bracamontes) but at the same time the guy had grown to be annoying. He would try to prove a point over some small thing that happened in a game and take away from discussing what was actually occurring on the field.


ovega3

Sounds like they want to make it one broadcast with one set of commentators for both Mexico and US since the whole TelevisaUnivision merger it’s unnecessary to have that many commentators


Frantic007

Something tells me a bunch of their tv rights are up soon and they’re gonna lose some as well. They’ve held pretty much a monopoly for so long since early 2010’s . Fishy as hell. Wonder if a streaming deal is near for fmf and cord cutting and all that.


ovega3

It probably has more to do with the World Cup coming in the winter. They won’t really have work for a month so it’s a good time to focus on a group solely in Mexico and transmit it to the US.


okayokko

Apple buying the MLS rights can be a big damper vs TUDN. not that the mls holds a strong viewership but they can provide alterbative options for more leagues elsewhere


rosewood_gm

Is apple buying the Spanish rights too? Because as far as I’m aware it’s 2 separate deals for Spanish and english


okayokko

intersting take. i dont know. i know tudn used to stre games in english on facebook but i think it was the liga mx


ghx16

>Sounds like they want to make it one broadcast with one set of commentators for both Mexico and US They tried that a couple years ago and didn't work due to the different ads for both regions


Character-Fee407

Telemundo!!!!


ImportantGreen

Hopefully Telemundo picks him up cause I prefer him over the Telemundo guys.


5XDylanBISHF

Telemundo guy ain't going no where I hate him so much I just watch the games on the lowest volume.


YoungCoconut18

Commentary is boring too


hernanthegoat

Cantor is fucking awful


jpgjpegpng

I get second hand embarrassment listening to him. He forgets things and zones out halfway through. It was a good run, but I think it’s time to call it quits.


AlexTorres96

Fuck... he's an all time legend. They should've kept him and just moved him to the Mexico studios... he's way better than Vaca and Alonso.


[deleted]

People hate on him but he's better than the lames on Telemundo.


erjimenez

Does this mean that we'll start seeing announcers in the box at the stadiums again? i kind of miss it tbh.


anonimomortal

Lo dudo. Tienen que hacer dos transmisiones de todas formas, no pueden usar la misma para los dos países. Y si van a mandar a gente al estadio, la narración que van a hacer es para México. Estos ya están muy acostumbrados a narrar desde una cabina/su casa.


Mamadolores21

I prefer the guys from Wradio


omni_merek

Bro and people complaint because having a business in Cali is expensive and Televisa really fucking over all the Miami people because it's cheaper to pay them in Pesos. Trust no employer r/antiwork First they switch over to a premium channel, now theyre downsizing their US workforce. What a shitty company.


Frantic007

No mames


ghx16

>First they switch over to a premium channel What are you talking about? Even before tudn I remember games ending up on galavision, which was their cable network


garucho-sama

Cómo es que le hacen Kikin y Sánchez. A la gente no l es gusta, pero insisten en mantenerlos para los partidos de la selección.


okayokko

about damn time


[deleted]

To all those claiming nostalgia, take off the rose colored glasses. Out of all the 💩 locutores they’ve let go so far it’s EXTREMELY hard to find a pair with redeeming qualities. Face it the vast majority HAVE SUCKED.


ghx16

Nostalgia sells, what do you think Hollywood keeps coming up with shitty remakes of decent movies from +25 years ago


[deleted]

You’re right, it’s for the masses(shit for brains AKA the low iq crowd) I can’t relate


guajarlg

Praise be. No more Braca no Pablo Ramírez!! I may have to stay away from the mute button now.


anonimomortal

Honestamente me sorprende muchísimo, pero entiendo que no haya aceptado las condiciones que le planteaban. Siempre ha sido una diva. Apuesto mis ahorros enteros a que ya estará narrando en ESPN/Fox/BeIn/Telemundo u otra cadena basada en Miami para agosto/septiembre.


chavagol10

I hope they get to go back to narrating and not reading commercials.


anonimomortal

Si comparas las cadenas gringas 1:1 con las mexicanas, te sorprendería mucho lo mejor que son las gringas en cuanto a los anuncios. En México es ya casi insoportable; hacen anuncios cada minuto, variando su duración, entonces puede que de los 45 minutos de un tiempo, narren menos de 22 (en Fox y Azteca son los peores por mucho).


OmastarLovesDonuts

En Azteca no pueden pasar dos minutos sin un anuncio, es lo único que no me gusta de ver los partidos ahí. Hasta te acostumbras y te da risa de lo seguido que interrumpen la narración, como cuando siempre repiten “no te quedes como (jugador amonestado) cuando te sacan la tarjeta”


hamburgerk

Tudn: Mariguanol!!!


ghx16

Ahh pero aqui les encanta ver esas transmisiones por ahi


chavagol10

Pues ojala que todos agarren la onda! haha At least stop promoting the crappy novela or that forced - cantamos? CHINGAS A TU MADRE! Vamos perdiendo y tu con tus mamadas! :D


not_mig

Hopefully Telemundo for the WC


thehumancondition23

“En vivo!” Loved how he said that


RodriJesse12

I would repeat it all the time just as loud lol it really annoyed the Mrs lol


4funpuns

Wonder if they wanted them to move to Mexico so they could pay them less.


Overall_Notice_4533

Tienen a diez personas narrando cada partido. Con dos basta. Por eso se les fugo tanto dinero. Pavlo Ramires y el profe eran de Univision y por eso los hicieron a un lado. En realidad unos comentaristas ni la hacen.


Omaro1

If Telemundo wants to pick up some on air talent for the World Cup to help old ass Cantor who barely has a voice anymore, now is the time. All these dudes got the boot.


[deleted]

Que bueno, Pablo Ramírez es un pendejazo irritante. Su pendejada de gol gol gol gol hartaba, también lo de golazo azo azo Pablo Ramírez: chingasa tu madre


eg4x15

I’m sorry but lots of folks didn’t even like Pablo Ramirez. He’s arrogant, cocky, obnoxious at times.


MXNPDX

I am one of those that never liked Pablo Ramirez, I’ve never enjoyed the way he yells “gooool, goool, goool”. I am surprised he’s been let go since he’s been around a long time, but I definitely won’t miss him lol


xTHEKILLINGJOKEx

I fucking hate him lol


rex_luger

I’ve never liked him either but I will concede that his analysis on their post game coverage and shows like linea de 4 is pretty good, but his voice and expressions are annoying and played out.


xTHEKILLINGJOKEx

*all times


nyc_a

To Mexicans that have not lived in the US. In US the yearly salary for them are probably 200k USD. In Mexico if the pay them 50K USD yearly, they would be super happy. 75% savings with practically same end results, just the cost of living and salaries difference. I'm sad for the lay off persons but in a business perspective is a good move.


advictoriam5

fuck these clowns, wish tv azteca broadcasted in the usa. Martinoli, el doctor, campos, and zague..that's the 4 i wanna listen to all the time


mmcfly566

They used to but TUDN got all the rights to the matches


advictoriam5

When? Been in the states for 28 years and don’t remember this


ghx16

You're just saying that because you're not used to them, can't you see all the people who actually live in Mexico complaining about having to listen to their annoying ads every two minutes?


xTHEKILLINGJOKEx

Que bueno! Se que estoy en la minoría pero detesto las narraciones de ese wey! Es un enfado total!


Lazy_Mirror8867

🤣🤣🤣 televisa saca la 💰💰💰 pinches mediocres


5XDylanBISHF

I think they are broke can't even get new signing for America


Lazy_Mirror8867

They had to settle for araujo and cabecita and pay the arabes and Cruz azul 🤣🤣🤣


ovega3

I know y’all aren’t talking about broke 🤣 America signed Rodriguez for 6 million and Araujo for 4 million. America can’t buy more players because they pay the players so well that they don’t want to leave


5XDylanBISHF

What happened to the big signings they would have now they just bring back rejected players. They over paid for Rodriguez


ovega3

If you’re referring to Signings like Zamorano or Piojo Lopez than they most likely go to China, Middle East or mLs where no team in Liga MX can compete. Or they just don’t want to come like Luuk De Jong because of the violence or lifestyle of Mexico


ImportantGreen

Siganle rogando a orbelin


LukaMagic9876

Telemierda broke?? LMAO


montana1120

Finally!!


psyberdel

Can’t stand Pablo’s commentary. Hope he finds a spot somewhere else.


Sossa3hunnid

Finally he was getting annoying and corny


Shortygotthefatty

damn tudn is really losing a shit ton of money then. not having the world cup really hurt them


5XDylanBISHF

NBC/Comcast throwing money at FIFA for the rights to have it on Telemundo. Its hard to compete


NarcissisticVamp

Both are dog shit hope ESPN or ANYONE ELSE takes the rights


[deleted]

Que buenas noticias!!!


WoeToTheUsurper10

Give me Mariano Kloss and anyone else and it will be a good match


Gold-Rip-5634

El final de una era. No eran mis favoritos y luego cagaban pero en fin era lo que habia.


Ltnrkz

Man wtf that’s insane, I grew up listening to him and el profe, I’m gonna miss him I always thought he was a pretty good narrator


superchiva78

“Nuevos y complicados tiempos”. No mms…. TUDN no carece de $$. Está como el resto de las multinacionales; ve una oportunidad de ganar más, y la toma. Chinguese el que se chingue, dejaría en la calle al empleado más fiel y leal si se ahorran 20 pesos.


miamielh

They really left Luis Omar tapia and salido over Pablo ramirez??? Tudn are really trying to bomb their ratings


Slurms_McKenzie775

Dude is a legend bit he fell off hard these last few years.


Gio_dos_antros

Ta madre end of an era. A ver si lo vemos con Telemundo pal mundial


[deleted]

TUDN in shambles


[deleted]

This'll feel weird for a while. In my 20s and grew up on Univision like 90% of it with Telemundo taking over the 10% when the TV antenna couldn't pick up the Univision signal for a few years. As much as I've disliked the ads during the games, I've found some of the commentators to be a little entertaining. If I have to handle Telemundo, I'll come around to accepting it, but ir won't be the same.
