With the Joe Rogan controversy spreading like wildfire, many of his colleagues and UFC fighters have come out in his support. The UFC broadcast member, Laura Sanko, was not behind either. Even though she reinforces nothing that Rogan has said, she pointed out why the fans should forgive him for his acts.
In a recent interview with MMA Journalist James Lynch, ‘Fancy’ said that she would like people who admitted their mistakes to have another chance. Also, cutting off someone when they admit their mistake is a problem and not a solution.

However, she referred she doesn’t stand by Rogan’s comments, but she still supports him as he has come forward and made an honest public apology with no excuses. Also, she arbitrated we should not judge someone on their bad days.
She concluded, “I think Joe is a good person. I genuinely do and I think Joe overall has very, very good intentions in terms of the information he brings forward. And the way that he treats people. And every personal interaction with him I’ve ever had has been 100 percent positive.”
“But I think more than anything, he’s aware that what he did, and said was not right, and he’s apologized for it. And I think that we should take him at his apology and judge him on his actions here on out.”
According to Sanko, Rogan deserves another chance to reconcile things.
Fans reacted to Laura Sanko’s comment on Joe Rogan
As many of the UFC fighters frequently get star-struck by Rogan inside the octagon, ‘Fancy’ has the same sentiments. She referred to Rogan as the ‘Super Fan’ of UFC and wanted to follow his footstep in the commentary booth.
Her remarks have MMA fans furious. Thus, many have taken to Twitter to remind her that Joe Rogan’s video is a compilation of years and it’s not about one day of mistake.
I think she meant years, not day.
