‘I Remember Hearing the Snap. It Was So Horrific’ – UFC Commentator Joe Rogan Revisits Former World Champion’s Arm Getting Broken in Half by Frank Mir

Mixed martial arts is one of the most exciting combat sports. Although it is very violent and fatal, each time an individual steps inside the Octagon, they put their lives on the line. You remain at risk of life-threatening injuries. Perhaps this is why it is so widely viewed and supported globally. Supreme discipline is required throughout life to excel in this sport. Starting from an early age, one must put themselves through tormenting training daily, for being efficient. Joe Rogan in his recent podcast, along with Steve-O, discussed such injuries, a few during Frank Mir’s fight.

The fighters need to maintain their fitness and physique to excel in the Octagon. One who looks after himself the most and is most disciplined often reaches the pinnacle. Although you achieve a god-like physique, you remain in danger of sustaining a viscous injury at a lapse of judgment. An example would be Kamaru Usman’s knockout loss to Leon Edwards at UFC 278.

‘The Nigerian Nightmare’ was heading toward the Goat status when he ate a savage kick to the head from ‘Rocky’. Since he dominated most of the fight, a win by decision was written in the stars if he hadn’t succumbed in the final round. A lapse of judgment was all it took.

Although a head kick is quite damaging, it doesn’t come close to some of the other injuries sustained by the fighters via Jujitsu.

Joe Rogan describes the horrific Minotauro arm snap:

Joe Rogan in his recent podcast with Steve-O breakdowns the Frank Mir vs Antonio Nogueira fight. He hails former interim UFC Light Heavyweight champion ‘Minotauro’ as a legend and shows a lot of respect. This justifies how amazing Frank is since he broke his arm during the fight and how.

Joe describes how Minotauro goes for a guillotine during the fight, and Frank reverses it. He puts his right leg on top of Minotauro and then processes to execute an arm bar. Since Antonio does not tap, his arm gets broken. He said, “I remember hearing the snap. It was so horrific.”

Joe further added, “Now watch this right here. Snap! Argh! Frank is so big and so strong that your arm has no chance. In fact, he has broken 2 different world champion’s arms inside the Octagon.”

He continues, “He broke Tim Sylvia’s arm with a armbar and he broke Minotauro’s arm. And when that arm breaks like that man, I don’t think you’re ever the same again.”
