First off, i am not a Rogan hater. I love his podcast and think he is very knowledgeable on most topics,and i appreciate how we calls the woke lefty brigade out on their crap.
But this was a bad bad night of commentary for Joe. Is he now outdated and are his days numbered in the modern UFC.
1. Biased commentary in main event. First 3 rounds were clearly close on the feet. Judges scored to Jan and Jan led on signifcant strikes but listening to Rogan you'd think Adesanya was dominating. Cormier 'this is a close fight on the feet,Jan is doing well' Rogan ' Adesanya is clearly winning' Cormier 'Ok Joe'
2. Cutting off Dom. 'im sorry this became a political broadcast' Dom ' This is monster energy Joe, its not political' WTF Joe political broadcast.
3. 'Drew Dober is the most underrated fighter in the UFC.' Dober proceeds to get absolutely dominated. No takedowns defended, hardly lands a strike and gives up when choke is barely in.
4. Askarov Bro-Science. When told Askarov is 80% deaf he goes into a 2 minute spiel about how that may increase his other senses. Comes on, this is an elite organisation PPV broadcast and we are getting some 10 year old bro-science narrative. Leave that stuff for your podcast. That sort of talk is z level analysis.
5. And how can i forget when he referenced Jan fighting at 185 in the post fight interview!!!!
I think he might have confused Jan with Kyzysztof Jotko (another Polish fighter
I thought Goldberg would be missed but in reality Anik is clearly 10 times better a commentator and the decision was overdue.
Could it be the same with Rogan. Should he now go ? And if he goes will we realise when he goes that it was long overdue.
