Joe Rogan completely self obsessed and annoying (Curtis Blaydes vs Jailton Almeida) UFC 299

[Ima5starman]

Joe's the kind of guy to see Francis get big brother'd by AJ the previous night, but still say that JDM has world class boxing when he's near 50/50 on the feet vs Burns.

I respect the guy for promoting MMA from the early days, but he brought into his own hype too much. It's all sensei steven like.

Rogan gets caught up on a single observation, accurate or not, and becomes obsessed with it. To the point of absurdity.

 

[TankAbbott4Eva]

Rogan does seem to get overly obsessed with certain things (usually if he likes a fighter) .

I like Wonderboy Thompson, very good fighter and nice guy, but Rogan goes hysterical every time he throws a basic leg kick, but when the opponents lands flush shots to Thompsons face, Rogan just ignores it and keeps going on about a leg kick that Thompson threw.

He gets really excited if there's someone from an elite specialty, like a kickboxer or BJJ guy. That's when you have a shot every time he says "high level" and "technical" and get shitfaced by the end of the fight.

Imagine if Joe had to fight in a hockey game?

 

[CasualBot]

Frankly ... who cares what Rogan sees or does not see. He is burnt.

What is truly fuct was Blades blasting the last two punches to the back of the head.
That shit, is undeniable. Yet... no thread. No mention by Rogan/commentary.
Plain as day that Almeida was not out, until those back of the head shots.

The rules on back of the head punches are ridiculous.
Zero discussion when the guy goes out.

 

[Vulve]

you will miss him dearly when he's gone

 

[Bork Neslar]

Hogan sucks. Always has, always will.

 

[Siver!]

[LostMyBlackBelt]

What an insecure tit.

Joe is one of the most insecure people on Earth. He wears shoe lifts, he will only drive the fastest car he can buy, he does not even sit down in his chair, he is basically standing in front of it to look less short.

 

[Outsider524]

That annoyed the hell out of me.

That said even his simple words like "here" and "though" annoy me just as much as his constant hyperbole

And no Joe he doesn't almost have the Kimura locked in.

Thanks for the good rant thread

He's done this in many fights

[whocares]

Rogan showed up late to the party, did all the drugs in the world and now he's got the brain of a chihuahua

 

[chiefwiggum]

It’s live and in the moment. Nobody knew what happened until the replay. This was a 5 second finishing sequence.

"Back of the head" is the mohawk strip. Blaydes was blasting Almeida behind the ear, which is perfectly legal.

not the last two, when the guy actually went limp

The last two Almeida was rolling over as Curtis was hammering. How is that his fault? is he supposed to just stop hitting him and let him recover?

no during the side of the temple shots, there is a second angle, the last two are dead back of the head. the first almeida's hands suddenly unclasp, and the next one he is rolling over limp.
prior, they were sideways. last two, were not.
not talking about any hammerfists after he was already limp

I can't remember wonderboy ever using leg kicks heavily in any of his fights but I am not a major follower of his. Surely a sherdogger with 55k posts wouldn't be calling normal kicks, "leg kicks", when they are not being targeted at the opponent's legs. That would be like calling a punch an "arm punch" because you punch with your arm. You are either talking about when wonderboy literally kicks the leg of his opponent which I rarely see him do or you have the terminology fucked up.

I thought it was an uppercut, he had the right to be confused.
