In a video, Rogan asks Jamie Vernon to pull out a video of ‘The Notorious’ criticizing him. The video shows Conor McGregor around some fans calling out Joe Rogan for reading from a script while commentating on the second fight between him and Nate Diaz.
In response to the criticism, Rogan said, “Oh, well, that’s his perception. I understand what he is saying, sometimes people think that. But it is very difficult when someone is calling your fight. If he is talking about me calling someone’s fight that is not his friend, then it makes much more sense. It’s f***ing hard man, it’s hard for me I have a really hard time calling friends fights.”
