I was up all night watching this UFC card until near 6am and my eyelids were getting heavy. I was at risk of falling asleep during the Ian Garry fight.. and then I hear Joe Rogan say that he wants to see Garry against Leon Edwards as if it could be a tough matchup and I was suddenly filled with so much rage that I didn't care about sleep
the UFC want Ian to be a big name/fighter and they want him to be a hyped up title fight. just wait, i'm sure he will close sketchy decision his way another win and end up in a title fight when he def doesn't deserve one. also, people tend to not notice that the fighters that make sense for the popularity of fights etc win more than not. The UFC is like the WWE people just don't see it and we don't have concrete proof of how deep the rabbit hole is but nothing would surprise me. between judges scoring often being atrocious to actual fighters looking like they're purposely throwing fights. all athletes sign non-disclosure agreements so who knows what they are told to do etc. even if it would be technically illegal. the world is a corrupt place and people glance over things too easily.
"The dogbender" that we have given the CCP SLUT as a nick name is still one of the funniest fucking things ever. 😂😂😂😂 I love it so fucking much pure comedy gold.
Dont forget him saying "neck crank" when they cant get the rear naked choke under the chin. 99% of the time its not a neck crank, its just smashing their face, a strong guy will submit you with RNC anywhere below the eyebrows but lets not pretend its an technical submission.
@@symh2813what the do you mean ?

Just rewatched Topuria V Hall and that was hilariously accurate. Joe: "This is the danger, Hall throws these wild moves and the next thing you know you're screaming tapping as he's tearing your ar... OHHH he's out! Illia Topuria with the brutal ground and pound!"
Joe's been biased since the early days. GSP would all but maul BJ meanwhile Rogan, for the 3rd time, is applauding Penn's impeccable takedown defence as he gets ragdolled to the floor.
I remember that fight. The crowd was booing Hall going for all those Imanari rolls and missing badly. Rogan said something like the fans don't understand what he's going for. Thirty seconds later Topuria knocked him out.
@@PhillAndersonGuitarist Exactly, Hall wouldn't stand at all so the crowd started boo'ing him and Rogan said "the audience, the unschooled mouth breathers amongst us just don't understand"
Love rogan but i face palmed myself when Ilia was beating the living conspiracy out of mitchell and went to the ground "I think this is a mistake going to the ground with Bryce Mitchell"
Bro topuria was punching him silly and he thinks the moment Mitchell's back touches the mat he's going to snap out of his concussion and start having his way with topuria
He said the same shit when Ilia went to the ground with Ryan Hall and put him down, Joe Rogan and DC are a genuine chore to listen to when they are commentating.
The only commentator I see discuss gameplan and what a fighter needs to do to win is Dominick Cruz ironically enough. As wrong or as annoying as he is he is the singular commentator that is actually worth listening to because all DC does it start analyzing wrestling scenarios and all Anik and Joe do is discuss what just happened.
Dude it’s crazy how accurate MMAguru is, like this is exactly why I listen because this dude says EXACTLY what I’m thinking and saying to my friends as we’re listening to cards. Spot on.
When he said “why does Geoff Neal have his hand up” really sent me. We’ve seen ppl lose clearly and still do that. But to act as if that doesn’t happen in most fights that go to the cards and as if Neal is wild for doing so. Like to act legitimately surprised and to ask why. That’s what gets me. You ask why but you knew why. You asked why as an attempt to clown him.
hes a salty mma fan. i can imagine guru being like that if merab just went to decision against aldo. "why that gremlin got his hand raised"? rogans just a biased human. great for his podcast. thats what we want. objective mma youtubers dont get any views compared to guys that openly admit "im a volk fan" like lucas tracy does. but an ian garry fanboy should not be the official ufc commentary. just like guru and tracy shouldnt.
@@johnmarkson1990 well the thing with that is Rogan tries to seem unbiased but clearly is. And we’ll take a guy who admits his bias over someone who doesn’t. Whatever that bias may be. I much prefer guru or mma experts calls of the fight than the actual commentary. Rogans actual the one that bothers me the least. DC is the worst and Felder just isn’t good. Bisping same as felder. Cruz is ok but sounds like the prick he is but he does come off as super knowledgeable. Sanko and Anik are the only ones I actually like. Cruz has his moments of good.
Hall vs Topuria was the worst Joes ever been. That and when he glazed Rousey. It’s unfortunate, I love Joe, but his bias towards BJJ guys and folks he likes is so apparent. DC as well, glazes the wrestlers like it’s his sole purpose for commentary lol Dern getting fight of the night makes me wanna throw up Wild
@@superfarful tbf costa vs whittaker looked cool but wasnt exactly a high level fight. whittaker being dumb and costa also being dumb just throwing big attacks that get blocked.
@@macman975watch the sport religiously, know the entire roster, have been watching for a significant time, able to break down fights, able to predict fight outcomes, able to score fights. The ability to be non-biased is probably the most important factor of all.
"You know he got good jiu-jitsu. Just because he's so biased against Jiu-jitsu guys. You can hear it in the voice. Whenever a guy is a jiu-jitsu fighter. Joe Rogan might blow them like playing old rusted trombone." by Rampage Jackson.
I dunno if you guys have noticed but ufc seems to manipulate the striking stats and use mid fight tweets to create the impression of certain fighters doing better than they are
ya this way if there is a close sketchy decision it's more believable plus it influences people betting. only naive people think that sports are not rigged. anything involving serious money is rigged, politics, business, medical/scientific field, everything.
Been noticing it more and more recently I wish they’d stop showing tweets at all, no one cares who snoop dog thinks is winning or how much drake bet on the fight
i mean sometimes the tweets are just madly contradicting each other. one guy has it 30-27 the other has it 27-30. not sure how betting is affected by that. "oh snoop dog said this im gonna raise my bet!". unless you give a specific example with evidence then youre just being biased.
When I spar and I hit people with calf kicks I told them they can think Benson Henderson for it then I start talking about Alpha brain and asking Jamie to do something for me. There’s no Jamie in my class.
When Rogan asked in disgust "why is Geoff Neal raising his hand?" right after the fight ended, I became irrationally angry. Fighters who get absolutely waxed raise their hand, and this was a split decision. Can't stand that bowling ball.
Geoff neals performence was completely underwhelming. You might learn something from the commentary lmao. I thought the exact same thing as he raised his hand. Just because one judges is on some sort of narcotic doesnt mean anything
@@theredgoblin562 fighters raise their hand when they lose WAY worse all the time. That was a lackluster fight on both sides. Joe was absolutely praying to the alter of Ian for knees to Neal’s forearms. Rogan knows BJJ. If you think Garry fought a good fight you are a casual.
I haven't watched UFC for 2 months and then i finally watched 298's main card and within the first few minutes of commentary he started talking about how calf kicks changed the game.
The UFC TH-cam channel released the full UFC 100 card from back in the day, and Joe Rogan was commentating on it. He was much better back in the day compared to today. Seems like all of his love and excitement for a sport has gone out the window….
I honestly don't think he wants to be there commentating anymore. He never leaves the states no matter how big the card is. Plus Goldie was a perfect foil for him back in the day. Goldie became outdated and SO did Joe but the UFC will never get rid of him cause they think the fans will freak out.
the Garry glazing was honestly disgusting, its so obvious how hard the ufc is trying to baby and pamper Ian Garry, even dana was trying to protect and glaze him in the post presser
Anyone following the no-gi scene realizes that the sport has taken a 180 degree turn into a hybrid wrestling-submission sport (with emphasize on the wrestling). Usually, the MMA jiujitsu-guys lack all the wrestling and think they can simply shoot for single legs and hope for the best. It's insane. Like Guru said: "We need to measure the fighter's IQ before the fight."
@@arturobelano6243Regardless no-gi grappling is super entertaining to watch. I avoided it for years because I figured it would be boring but I was seriously wrong.
Joe watching someone attempt a choke: HE’S LOOKING FOR IT! HAS HE GOT IT? OH, HE’S GOT IT! HE’S GOT IT. IT’S TIGHT! OH, THAT’S TIGHT. IT’S OVER. IT’S OVER. Anik: It looks like he may not have it! Oh! He breaks free! Joe: Wow. Wow. WOW.
I remember when Joe said "if Dana leaves, I leave" and thinking, damn that's gonna suck. Never would I have thought that Rogan annoys me more than Bisping and Cruz. Thought the Izzy/Jan bias was gonna be the peak of his incompetence but it has honestly gotten worse. Just imagine if he was actually commentating Strickland-Izzy live, who knows what kind of shit he'd spout. Now I'm at a point where if he walked away from commentary right now, I wouldn't feel a thing, not a single emotion. And that just don't seem right.
I absolutely LOVED Dans detailed breakdowns before the events that he would do. They were long as shit sometimes and extremely detailed lol but still great. Man I cant lie I miss Dan. With that said what he did concerning the whole Herb Dean / Covid "stop the fight" shit was honestly stupid. Especially doubling down on it. Smh I wish he would have just left it and apologized so he would still be with the UFC.
@@spurezurko Shame about Sanko's voice. I was fully ready to hate her when I found out she was going to be on 293, but I was pleasantly surprised by the end of it. She just needs to not shriek or scream.
The worst was every time Costa threw a head kick Rogan would lose his mind and say "Another headkick for Costa"....it was fully blocked, like two arms and everything
Costa' s kicks are pretty powerful, even if blocked they make damage, iron head Vettori had his arms destroyed by all the blocked kicks Costa was throwing. So, in Rogan's defence, highlighting the kicks, even if blocked, can make sense as a commentator.
Bro I was thinking the same shit y’all heard when Joe said “imagine him vs Leon” no joe! Nobody wants to see that Joe it’s not a fun fight Joe! Jesus these guys are glazing so hard for a fighter than did nothing that entire fight smh
I thought that was one of his more reasonable comments. Those are arguably the two best strikers in the division and neither would shoot that many takedowns. The lack of Leon’s power would make Garry more aggressive too. I’d actually really want to see this
@@eldgepollard5906 bro Leon’s last fight will Colby was a snooze fest he barely struck and mostly wrestled with Colby if the fight happens it happens but don’t expect it to be good
im honestly with him. not a ian garry fan by any metric other than thinking he can be pretty good. But i think stylistically that matchup could actually work AND potentially be a banger if they push each other to it@@MMA-Spy

298 was some of the worse commentary I've heard in a while from both Rogan and Bisping. Rogan glazing Dern and Ian beyond belief, Anik fairly quiet and Bisping doing his usual unnecessary rambles
Success of Topuria, Pereira and Oliveira shows that stardom builds naturally. Whenever UFC tries to push and promote one fighter and shove him down our throat they start looking more like a clown.
@@n.fland.5694 Are you calling Pereira and Oliveira no names? They are literally like top 5 stars in the sport. If you are then you don't know wtf you're talking about and if not I agree with you with the names of Ian magado Cherry
I'm so glad I wasn't the only one who noticed how bad it was for this fight... usually I can expect biased commentary on Adesanya and Moreno fights, but this fight was ridiculous. He literally said at the end "Why is Geoff raising his hands?" like it wasn't an insanely close fight...
It wasn't an insanely close fight, Geoff got outstruck every single round and did nothing in the clinch. Fight was winnable for him, if he would have maybe felt comfortable enough to throw anything.
Geoff Neal is probably my favorite fighter to watch and even I think you guys are letting your bias against Garry blind you. That was not an insanely close fight geoff neal did not do enough to win and as a fan it’s frustrating because he destroys belal and then has performances like this
@@eldgepollard5906 Geoff Neal just sucks at cage cutting to get tall rangey guys uncomfortable, when he’s up against a guy his height he goes beast mode
@@eveningstar7812 agree, they should only refer to Jiu Jitsu or Sambo when they are speaking of the fighter's accomplishments in those sports. Everything else should be called grappling.
What annoys me is when someone is getting pieced up all round, and then a grappler might get a takedown with a few seconds of control time only to hear. "HE MIGHT HAVE STOLEN THAT ROUND!" In a damaged based scoring system.
the scoring system doesnt matter. its about what the judges are looking for. a takedown at the end of the round is a steal 75% of the time. dc fought in ufc for years. he knows what the judges are actually scoring fights on.
So right about the calf kick man... The commentary of Rogan has caused my wife to constantly mention the legs every fight I have to explain to her to not listen to the commentary
Joe Rogan had me so hyped for Ryan Hall. Then I watched him smoke BJ Penn. Then the Elkins fight I was like, "dang, he is pretty good..." Then they were saying everyone was ducking him. Then, he fought Ilia... I never laughed so hard during an MMA fight in my life lol
how is this only becoming a topic? this has been a problem for 5 years. kuddos to guru for at least having the fan base to publicly go against the mma bandwagons. its really hard to openly hold an opinion thats against whats popular or trending in mma. i think thats what makes guru good. he gives people a place to come and see opinions being blasted, that you would get haggled for even mentioning on another thread
@@zlatantherogue549 I miss Goldie too but I think my point stands, I remember Rogan would get frustrated and correct Goldie a lot on commentary, something Anik or DC don’t ever do due to his achievements etc
What infuriated me was when Rogan said “tried to catch him in the air, a la fedor-arlovski” as if nobody else has ever tried to throw a punch while their opponent was in the air. That fight was like 20 years ago
I’m so glad you made this. Literally had me in bits 😂😂 I was thinking the same thing during the fight, I feel like joe has got too untouchable to the point where no one calls him out on this bs. Guy has built up too much of an ego.
I was losing my mind during their commentary for Gary, they acted like a close fight was a one way beating. So many of Gary's knees didn't land and they acted like Neal was on the ground crying after. Downplayed Neal's shots.
WHO DO YOU THINK DOES MORE ANNOYING RANDOM BANTER? A.) BISPING B.) ROGAN C.) D.C. I truly don't mind Dom and Bisping getting into it every card. It makes my night. Lol!
Bisping is the worst and mainly because hes clearly biased and hell argue with people. I love when cruz is there cuz he pushes back on his clear nonsense takes.
@@infrared6973 i honestly think Bisping is entertaining . Cruz is usually right but i just think hes a smart ass fuck, always thinks he knows better than the fighter in the cage when his career turned to shit and he blew his last fights by totally weaving into strikes.
Joe constantly raving about how unique the Ryan Hall BJJ is, while Rinya Nakamura was effortlessly stacking up and controlling Carlos Vera was so embarrasing.
Not to mention that leg kicks, and calf kicks are mostly scored as "cumulative damage", which counts less in a round scoring compared to immediate damage ( cut, immediate eye swelling, nose bleeding, knockdowns, etc..). Quote from the Unified Rules: "Effective striking includes legal blows that have an immediate or cumulative impact with the potential to contribute towards the end of the match with the IMMEDIATE weighing in more heavily than the cumulative impact."
Rogan has clearly been checked out for years, it started when he decided to no longer attend PPVs unless they're in the US near where he lives. He's just showing up for the paycheck and doesn't follow the sport anymore beyond a casual level. His BJJ knowledge that they used to cue him up to talk about is also outdated now as the MMA meta has evolved to where BJJ is ineffective. With that said, it's clear Guru is only firing shots at him because he wants his name mentioned on JRE, whether positive or negative it would boost his channel.
@@charliec2966He certainly does get paid for commentating, he often says that he started off doing it for free. Also, not attending events because of family is ridiculous. It's quite clear he isn't the commentator he used to be. I really like Joe by the way, but there's nothing wrong with saying it how it is.
Look, I’m not arguing whether or not he’s annoying while commentating…but I feel like the worst possible reasoning for why he’s still doing it is “He’s just showing up for a check” lol if anything he shows up cause of the seats lol
In Joe's defense, he smokes a lot of weed. I am more about the minutes long conversations like it's a watch along. When he is on topic I like Joe's commentary.

I've also rewatched that fight and had a laugh as Hall got sent on the lightless walk.
Love rogan but i face palmed myself when Ilia was beating the living conspiracy out of mitchell and went to the ground "I think this is a mistake going to the ground with Bryce Mitchell"
'Beating the living conspiracy out of Bryce Mitchell' hahaha
Bro topuria was punching him silly and he thinks the moment Mitchell's back touches the mat he's going to snap out of his concussion and start having his way with topuria
Rip Bryce 😢
He said the same shit when Ilia went to the ground with Ryan Hall and put him down, Joe Rogan and DC are a genuine chore to listen to when they are commentating.
Joe Rogan yelling he's hurt, he's tired, and that choke is tight every fight when it's not even true is annoying.
Hernandez vs Russian Chase Hooper the first RNC Hernandez attempts, "oh that choke is very tight," Russian Chase Hooper slips his head out
Well, you don't generally get paid hundreds of millions to tell the truth? lol
Rogan is a big reason UFC is where it is today so guru has to suck it up. 😂
"Aaaohhh!!! Beautiful! he's hurt! AAAAOHHHHHHHH THATS IT."
The only commentator I see discuss gameplan and what a fighter needs to do to win is Dominick Cruz ironically enough. As wrong or as annoying as he is he is the singular commentator that is actually worth listening to because all DC does it start analyzing wrestling scenarios and all Anik and Joe do is discuss what just happened.
Dude it’s crazy how accurate MMAguru is, like this is exactly why I listen because this dude says EXACTLY what I’m thinking and saying to my friends as we’re listening to cards. Spot on.
You’re sad af
Also calling an obese bloke “mmaguru” is absolutely wild

Joe mad gay for mr machado
he wants a piece of his wife now that he knows its fair game
He actually referred to him as just “Machado” a couple times during the fight it was hilarious
Don't get butthurt. that comment reeks of saltiness @joel.248
@joel.248 trash talking someone is gay, and verbally licking their ballbag = not gay according to this guy. lol
Ian got tagged a few times Joe says now he's controlling the range again like a magician of distance literally circling to death
When he said “why does Geoff Neal have his hand up” really sent me. We’ve seen ppl lose clearly and still do that. But to act as if that doesn’t happen in most fights that go to the cards and as if Neal is wild for doing so. Like to act legitimately surprised and to ask why. That’s what gets me. You ask why but you knew why. You asked why as an attempt to clown him.
His tone of voice seemed rather disrespectful to me. I was like damn dude its just a natural reaction after the fight.
hes a salty mma fan. i can imagine guru being like that if merab just went to decision against aldo. "why that gremlin got his hand raised"? rogans just a biased human. great for his podcast. thats what we want. objective mma youtubers dont get any views compared to guys that openly admit "im a volk fan" like lucas tracy does. but an ian garry fanboy should not be the official ufc commentary. just like guru and tracy shouldnt.
@@johnmarkson1990 well the thing with that is Rogan tries to seem unbiased but clearly is. And we’ll take a guy who admits his bias over someone who doesn’t. Whatever that bias may be. I much prefer guru or mma experts calls of the fight than the actual commentary. Rogans actual the one that bothers me the least. DC is the worst and Felder just isn’t good. Bisping same as felder. Cruz is ok but sounds like the prick he is but he does come off as super knowledgeable. Sanko and Anik are the only ones I actually like. Cruz has his moments of good.

I dunno if you guys have noticed but ufc seems to manipulate the striking stats and use mid fight tweets to create the impression of certain fighters doing better than they are
Im noticing it too.
ya this way if there is a close sketchy decision it's more believable plus it influences people betting. only naive people think that sports are not rigged. anything involving serious money is rigged, politics, business, medical/scientific field, everything.
Been noticing it more and more recently I wish they’d stop showing tweets at all, no one cares who snoop dog thinks is winning or how much drake bet on the fight
It's always the UFC company men that they show the tweets of. It's pathetic honestly
i mean sometimes the tweets are just madly contradicting each other. one guy has it 30-27 the other has it 27-30. not sure how betting is affected by that. "oh snoop dog said this im gonna raise my bet!". unless you give a specific example with evidence then youre just being biased.
When I spar and I hit people with calf kicks I told them they can think Benson Henderson for it then I start talking about Alpha brain and asking Jamie to do something for me. There’s no Jamie in my class.

When Rogan asked in disgust "why is Geoff Neal raising his hand?" right after the fight ended, I became irrationally angry. Fighters who get absolutely waxed raise their hand, and this was a split decision. Can't stand that bowling ball.
hes so bad its hard to watch now
Geoff neals performence was completely underwhelming. You might learn something from the commentary lmao. I thought the exact same thing as he raised his hand. Just because one judges is on some sort of narcotic doesnt mean anything
So was Ian's he landed a couple decent shots each round. @@theredgoblin562
@@theredgoblin562 fighters raise their hand when they lose WAY worse all the time. That was a lackluster fight on both sides. Joe was absolutely praying to the alter of Ian for knees to Neal’s forearms. Rogan knows BJJ. If you think Garry fought a good fight you are a casual.

I haven't watched UFC for 2 months and then i finally watched 298's main card and within the first few minutes of commentary he started talking about how calf kicks changed the game.
The UFC TH-cam channel released the full UFC 100 card from back in the day, and Joe Rogan was commentating on it. He was much better back in the day compared to today. Seems like all of his love and excitement for a sport has gone out the window….
think talking everyday lessening to himself telling the same stories about Remeros eyelids hes gotten old quick
He used to watch fights and research, now he just goes there to yap about
FACTS.....CAn't agree more
I honestly don't think he wants to be there commentating anymore.
He never leaves the states no matter how big the card is.
Plus Goldie was a perfect foil for him back in the day. Goldie became outdated and SO did Joe but the UFC will never get rid of him cause they think the fans will freak out.
He has too much money . He is getting free tickets and free money to do these shows
Topuria vs Hall was the funniest commentary of all time
I used to be a Joe defender but I can’t take it anymore
the Garry glazing was honestly disgusting, its so obvious how hard the ufc is trying to baby and pamper Ian Garry, even dana was trying to protect and glaze him in the post presser
they dont get that they cant trick us into liking him.
Also putting his wife on the camera.... they know exactly what they're doing
Anyone following the no-gi scene realizes that the sport has taken a 180 degree turn into a hybrid wrestling-submission sport (with emphasize on the wrestling). Usually, the MMA jiujitsu-guys lack all the wrestling and think they can simply shoot for single legs and hope for the best. It's insane. Like Guru said: "We need to measure the fighter's IQ before the fight."
Look at kenta vs mica i think the sport is moving away from wrestling again
@@arturobelano6243Regardless no-gi grappling is super entertaining to watch. I avoided it for years because I figured it would be boring but I was seriously wrong.
A fighter recieving a calf kick or shaking his hand out will instantly summon "Doctor Rogan" in commentary.

Anik: It looks like he may not have it! Oh! He breaks free!
Joe: Wow. Wow. WOW.
I remember when Joe said "if Dana leaves, I leave" and thinking, damn that's gonna suck. Never would I have thought that Rogan annoys me more than Bisping and Cruz. Thought the Izzy/Jan bias was gonna be the peak of his incompetence but it has honestly gotten worse. Just imagine if he was actually commentating Strickland-Izzy live, who knows what kind of shit he'd spout. Now I'm at a point where if he walked away from commentary right now, I wouldn't feel a thing, not a single emotion. And that just don't seem right.
This is so true. He just don't care anymore and it shows.
Gosh, imagine if Joe commented on that fight with Strickland and Adesanya, he would've made it sound like Israel was winning.
Bisping is the Worst. Midget Dom equally as bad. Cormier is annoying.

With that said what he did concerning the whole Herb Dean / Covid "stop the fight" shit was honestly stupid. Especially doubling down on it. Smh I wish he would have just left it and apologized so he would still be with the UFC.

The worst was every time Costa threw a head kick Rogan would lose his mind and say "Another headkick for Costa"....it was fully blocked, like two arms and everything
i watched the fight dude, robert whittaker did the drunken dance my ballsnit was blocked
Bro that's still a headkick that landed (but was blocked)
Costa' s kicks are pretty powerful, even if blocked they make damage, iron head Vettori had his arms destroyed by all the blocked kicks Costa was throwing. So, in Rogan's defence, highlighting the kicks, even if blocked, can make sense as a commentator.
Blocking them is good but that still has an impact.
Part of calling a fight is explaining what's happening, often enthusiastically.
Bro I was thinking the same shit y’all heard when Joe said “imagine him vs Leon” no joe! Nobody wants to see that Joe it’s not a fun fight Joe! Jesus these guys are glazing so hard for a fighter than did nothing that entire fight smh
I thought that was one of his more reasonable comments. Those are arguably the two best strikers in the division and neither would shoot that many takedowns. The lack of Leon’s power would make Garry more aggressive too. I’d actually really want to see this
@@eldgepollard5906 bro Leon’s last fight will Colby was a snooze fest he barely struck and mostly wrestled with Colby if the fight happens it happens but don’t expect it to be good

298 was some of the worse commentary I've heard in a while from both Rogan and Bisping. Rogan glazing Dern and Ian beyond belief, Anik fairly quiet and Bisping doing his usual unnecessary rambles
He was praising that Vera guy who was on bottom getting smashed for 13/15 minutes
Good thing I was in the crowd then
Anik was a little lackluster during the topiria finish too. You could tell he probably wanted volk to win and was diss appointed in the outcome
Success of Topuria, Pereira and Oliveira shows that stardom builds naturally. Whenever UFC tries to push and promote one fighter and shove him down our throat they start looking more like a clown.

It’s all just grappling I think it’s time we stop differentiating this way.
@@eveningstar7812 agree, they should only refer to Jiu Jitsu or Sambo when they are speaking of the fighter's accomplishments in those sports. Everything else should be called grappling.
What annoys me is when someone is getting pieced up all round, and then a grappler might get a takedown with a few seconds of control time only to hear. "HE MIGHT HAVE STOLEN THAT ROUND!" In a damaged based scoring system.
the scoring system doesnt matter. its about what the judges are looking for. a takedown at the end of the round is a steal 75% of the time. dc fought in ufc for years. he knows what the judges are actually scoring fights on.

That commentary was brutal from both Rogan and DC, I literally switched the audio off during that fight.
“Keep an eye on that left leg!😮” LMAO
I swear I started crying when he started saying “UNBELIEVABLE!” At the end 😂😂😂
I agree 💯
His comment, "why is Jeof raising his hand?" was very very biased, unprofessional & downright infuriating.
Not to mention that leg kicks, and calf kicks are mostly scored as "cumulative damage", which counts less in a round scoring compared to immediate damage ( cut, immediate eye swelling, nose bleeding, knockdowns, etc..).
Quote from the Unified Rules: "Effective striking includes legal blows that have an immediate or cumulative impact with the potential to contribute towards the end of the match with the IMMEDIATE weighing in more heavily than the cumulative impact."
Rogan has clearly been checked out for years, it started when he decided to no longer attend PPVs unless they're in the US near where he lives. He's just showing up for the paycheck and doesn't follow the sport anymore beyond a casual level. His BJJ knowledge that they used to cue him up to talk about is also outdated now as the MMA meta has evolved to where BJJ is ineffective. With that said, it's clear Guru is only firing shots at him because he wants his name mentioned on JRE, whether positive or negative it would boost his channel.
