Green pointed out how Felder has been getting negative attention recently because of his commentary. Hence, Rogan provided his insights on the difficulties related to the job.
Rogan said, “It’s hard, man. You’re thinking in real-time. You’re thinking in real-time in middle of fights. No, I f**k it up to, man. … It’s just no way around it, man. It’s a weird thing. You’re in the middle of calling something. You get excited, you get emotional, you’re attached, you know people, you know. You have ideas in your head about how you thought it was going to be versus how it’s actually happening, you know.”
“Every commentator experiences all of those things. … That’s all the stuff that I had to go through,” said Rogan.
