UFC commentator Joe Rogan on his recent podcast with Paul Felder misses out on a key detail during his analysis of the Mark Hunt fight. The 55-year-old podcaster has made a name for himself with his attention to detail. Due to his vast experience in commentating, hosting, stand-up comedy, and more, he has the ability to describe things in a manner that others can’t. This has earned him a role at the UFC as a fight analyst and live fight commentator.
In order to break down MMA fights and narrate what’s going on at a micro-level, he requires an immense knowledge of the sport and a certain level of intellect. This is a testament to Rogan, who does it from time to time. He is one of the few who can do this with ease and is admired for his ability to narrate what’s happening at a micro-level.
However, sometimes emotions get the best of men. In a similar instance, while watching the replay of Mark Hunt’s extraordinary knock-out win over the 37-year-old Sonny Bill Williams in, he missed out on the fighter’s age. Felder and Rogan thought the fighter is currently 41 years old when in reality he is 48.
