In one of his YouTube videos, the American promoter talked about Joe Rogan being a tough guy, which applies to everyone. Sonnen stated, “Joe Rogan is gonna be a tough night out for anybody, right?” He further elaborated on the statement, backing it up with Rogan’s impressive martial arts history. Sonnen explained, “He was a black belt in Taekwondo. He get into Jiujitsu, buddies up with Eddie Bravo, which is a very hard system. There are different systems out there and the Rubber Guard, the 10th Planet System, is very different. Joe gets a black belt in that.”

During the video, Chael Sonnen recalled one of Joe Rogan‘s controversies. Sonnen stated that if it was someone else instead of Rogan, the outcome would’ve been different and they would receive death threats. However, nobody would dare call out Joe Rogan. “Nobody said a lot of things to Joe. They didn’t say, ‘when I see you, we’re going to fight’. It’s just one of those things where he’s a tough night out.” said Sonnen.
