During the Q&A, one fan challenged Rogan and said, “Can I wrestle Joe Rogan, and if I win you come to Sweden.” Rogan pounced on him and said, “Sure, get up here b*tch.”
“What happens when I win,” said Rogan. He also asked, “What happens if you tap, that’s all I want to know what do I get.”
To which the fan savagely said, “I’ll black out before I tap out, b*tch.” This response impressed Rogan, and he said, “I’m gonna let him win that one, I like his moxie”

Dana White revealed why Joe Rogan was not in UFC 271 commentary booth
Joe Rogan is a staple in the commentary booth when it comes to the PPVs held in North America. But a week before the UFC 271, the UFC revealed that the veteran commentator will not feature at UFC 271. Earlier, the ‘Scheduling Conflict‘ was touted as the reason for his absence.

As the former Fear Factor host is going through a lot of controversies, many believed Disney may have been a reason behind his removal. However, Dana White, in the post-fight interview, said that there was no scheduling conflict. Rogan decided to opt-out of this PPV, and he will be back whenever he wants.
Nevertheless, Michael Bisping replaced him and debuted as a PPV commentator. During the main event, Jon Anik informed that Rogan texted him that Israel Adesanya’s right-hand looks hurt. This clearly shows Rogan was watching the PPV.
So the question arises: what stopped Joe Rogan from attending the PPV? If Dana White is right, why did Rogan decide not to call the fights at UFC 271? What do you think is the reason for his absence? Will he call UFC 272? Let us know in the comments section below.
