UFC commentator Joe Rogan spoke out on his podcast platform regarding an incident that went down at UFC 264. Rogan was part of the commentary team along with Daniel Cormier and Jon Anik to cover the blockbuster fight card. From the Cleveland Browns to Justin Bieber and Chuck Liddell, the stars were out in full force to watch UFC 264.

Another massive name who entered the arena for the main card was former President of the United States, Donald Trump. The 45 President of the States was seated ringside next to his good friend, UFC President Dana White. Chiefly, Joe Rogan described his encounter with Donald Trump and detailed the reaction of the crowd when he arrived at the T-Mobile Arena.

“[Met] him when I was working. I had my headphones on and I said ‘Hey, how’re you doing man? Nice meeting you’, shook his hand and got a video of it. It’s kinda hilarious. He’s like ‘Oh you do a tremendous job, amazing job, good job.’”

“Then he said to Daniel Cormier who was sitting next to me who is a former light heavyweight and the former heavyweight champion and [Trump] goes ‘I did not want to fight this guy, I did not want to fight this guy’.”

“I should have got a selfie with him, fu*k. What are you going to do? It was weird. It was very weird. When he walked in though, I’m telling you man they cheered the fu*k out of him.”
