“Credit to Dana White”- Joe Rogan Lauds the UFC President for Putting Up Events in the Middle of the Pandemic

Joe Rogan’s association with the UFC goes far back in time. The UFC color commentator has been working with the promotion since UFC 12: Judgement Day in 1997. Since then, Rogan has witnessed the growth of the company.

In the middle of the pandemic, when every sporting event was canceled, the UFC was one of the first promotions to come back and continue putting up events. Recently, Rogan shared his views on the same.

In an episode of his podcast, Rogan spoke about the UFC putting up events in the middle of the pandemic. He said, “I felt very very fortunate…because also it’s like it almost kind of went away. Like almost everything went away, and then it’s back. At those times, it was back for a very small amount of people. I mean, people got to watch it at home.”

The UFC color commentator further added, “Credit to Dana White and to the UFC for having the courage to put on those events in the middle of such extreme criticism. Like, there is a lot of people who didn’t want anybody to do anything.”
