- Joe Rogan, speaking Thursday on his podcast, said he preferred RFK Jr. for president.
- By Friday, facing intense criticism from Donald Trump and his allies, the podcaster walked it back.
- “I’m not the guy to get political information from,” Rogan said in a social media post.
Michael Bisping is an absolute bullshit artist when it comes to fight analysis or color commentary. Don’t believe me? Go listen to him juice up Leon Edwards for five rounds while Belal Muhammad is busy beating the shit out of him, and clearly running the octagon. Every UFC analyst does it, and they are arguably getting worse as time goes on regardless of their experience level with fighting.
Eh, I didn’t say that he was perfect, just that he’s objectively better than Rogan is - especially when paired with Cormier (who I really like).
The Rocky comparison is a tricky one, because the man’s crowning achievement is winning the title after being dominated and dragged back into the fight by his coach. I think the Belal fight surprised a lot of people, especially since Leon is no slouch on the ground. As a grappler myself I’m always going to back the wrestler, but I can see why Bisping would back Leon.
My issue with UFC above most MMA promotions is that it’s becoming more and more like WWE with every passing year. I wonder sometimes if it’s the commentators, or what they’re being told to push by Dana and co.
We are definitely in agreement on this part.
