Joe Rogan is away from the action these days, but he certainly had his moments back in the day.

However, Rogan’s powerful record on the PowerKube is an extraordinary feat.

Stephen Thompson attempts to dethrone The UFC Commentator

Stephen Thompson banded a group of skilled martial artists with one aim. To break Joe Rogan’s PowerKube record for a YouTube video. However, ‘Wonderboy’ himself scored 93,970 franklins on the machine. Which is pretty respectable for his weight class.

Thompson is a man with renewed vigor after his victory over Kevin Holland and looks to want to achieve all his goals. But some things might be out of the 39-year- old’s reach.
