Rogan said, “Once it’s in the MMA realm, everybody is f**ked. You put him in a cage; Everybody is f**ked. Give him a five-minute round; Everybody is f**ked. He’s gonna crush everybody. He’s too big, too strong.”
After praising the physical attributes of Ngannou, Rogan added, “He’s become clever, and he’s got really good coaching now. Like his fight against Stipe Miocic, so, the first fight he thought he was gonna knock him out, and he lost a decision.”

Stipe Miocic used his grappling to put on a clinical performance in their first bout at UFC 220. Apart from the opening exchanges, Ngannou had nothing to offer against the widely regarded UFC heavyweight GOAT. However, come the second fight, Ngannou was prepared.
Joe Rogan was commentating at UFC 260
Rogan had a viral reaction to the knockout in the commentary booth. Even earlier, Rogan played a big role in putting out Francis Ngannou’s story in front of the MMA fans. Thus, Rogan left no chance to laud the current UFC heavyweight champion.

Nevertheless, ‘The Predator’ left his previous think tank and joined forces with Eric Nicksick. Thus, with the new coach and a vastly unusual game plan, Ngannou achieved his dream of becoming a UFC champion.
Besides, in his last bout, Ngannou defended his UFC heavyweight championship for the first time. In addition, he did it against his former coach’s pupil Ciryl Gane, with whom Ngannou has trained before.
