Joe Rogan has been with the UFC for almost two decades now. Rogan’s first appearance was as a backstage interviewer at UFC 12 in 1997. He made his commentary debut in 2002 and has been a notable presence at UFC events since. Hence, it should be no surprise that Rogan was there to witness a lot of notable incidents that happened in the octagon.

Although he does not commentate frequently these days, Rogan follows the sport closely. On a recent episode of his podcast, ‘The Joe Rogan Experience’, Rogan talked about his time as a UFC commentator. Responding to a guest, Rogan listed out some of the wildest incidents he witnessed while commentating for the UFC.

Joe Rogan names the worst injury he’s seen in the UFC

In a recent episode of JRE, Joe Rogan was talking to the CEO of EF Overwatch, Mike Sarraille, and ‘Cleared and Hot’ podcast host Andy Stumpf. The conversation came around to Rogan’s time in the UFC. Andy Stumpf asked Rogan how many fights he had called in the UFC and Rogan responded he had no idea. He also suggested it might have thousands of fights at this point.

He then asked Rogan about the wildest stuff he had seen happen in the cage. Rogan said, “Broken Legs… Shin-on-shins are the worst. Because those guys are never the same again. … No one breaks a leg and is ever the same again… K.Os are rough, but guys have bounced back from K.Os.”
