Joe Rogan is a successful podcast host and has been associated with the UFC for a long time now. However, the stand-up comedian in him surfaces back now and then. And the fans absolutely love it when that happens. Recently, at the ceremonial weigh-ins for UFC 282, Joe Rogan’s mic cut out midway through an interview, and the way he recovered from that left the fans in stitches.

At that moment on stage, Rogan made a fairly strong assertion about ‘Russians’ that has since gained widespread attention.

Rogan said, “The Russians. They’re on us”. That statement was made shortly after Magomed Ankalaev left the stage following his interview. This left the fans in splits. They reacted to the short video online.

A fan loved his sense of humor. “The brain of a comic is beautiful.”

Another fan talked about the instant switch, from interviewer to comic, “Standup comedian kicked in”

A fan made a somewhat peculiar comparison and commented, “In that split second Joe’s voice and face turned into Alex Jones 😂😂😂.”

“He’s the best 😂😂😂.”

“Love you uncle Joe,” wrote another fan.

“Bruh that was a great recovery 💀”

Years of doing stand-up comedy undoubtedly have an effect on an individual and become a part of their coping mechanisms. And that stands true with Joe Rogan, which he proved with this short act at UFC 282 weigh-ins.
