“Do Not Get Caught on Camera” – Joe Rogan’s Embarrassing Moment With Miesha Tate Prompted a Cheeky Response by the Former UFC Champion in 2016
Follow Us
The ever-present UFC commentator Joe Rogan has been part of the promotion for over 20 years now. During this lengthy period, the famed MMA personality also became part of many iconic moments. For instance, Rogan’s UFC 248 reactions, along with fellow commentators, ended up as a popular meme. However, another popular but rather embarrassing moment includes him trying to escape the lens of the camera.
The hilarious incident dates back to 2016. During the UFC 200 ceremonial weigh-ins, Rogan got caught in an unusual pose. Because of past precedents of getting caught staring at the athletes, the former Fear Factor host adopted the measure of not looking at them. However, the measure went in vain as the comical situation made rounds on the internet, nonetheless.

How did Joe Rogan react?
UFC 200 headlined Miesha Tate’s first title defense against Amanda Nunes. Before both the fighters clashed in the Octagon, as per rules, the fighters attended the weigh-ins.
As in the case of the 55-year-old commentator, and given the nature of his duties, Rogan always found himself looking at the athletes. Therefore, as the then-UFC bantamweight champion, Tate climbed the scales for her weight check, the cameras hovered toward Rogan.
