Laura Sanko greatly enjoys her position as a reporter on UFC broadcasts, but she has grander aspirations. Sanko, a former MMA fighter who has broken into the media side of the game through Invicta FC, the UFC’s former broadcast partner FOX, and now ESPN, said she dreams of doing more as her non-fight career progresses. At this point, Sanko’s obligations consist largely of backstage interviews, roving reporter duties, social media, and more. She’ll find herself in the commentary booth for small portions of time, too, assisting those in the booth with information on fighter walkouts. Sanko hopes the latter could ultimately mark a transition into a full-time color commentator role.
