Joe Rogan questioned the controversial ending to UFC 295

UFC 295 saw the crowning of a new light heavyweight champion. Alex Pereira defeated a returning Jiri Prochazka in the second round to earn the vacant title. Moreover, ‘Poatan’ became the ninth two-division champion in the history of the UFC and it took him eleven fights to achieve that feat. However, Joe Rogan did not like the way the fight ended.

Marc Goddard was the referee for the main event fight for the light heavyweight strap. As such, he stopped the fight in the second round after Alex Pereira dropped Jiri Prochazka with a left hand, and continued to beat down the former champion with elbow strikes. It looked like ‘Denisa’ would get out of that predicament, but Goddard called for a stoppage. This did not sit well with Joe Rogan.

He believes that although the former champion was hurt, there was a chance that could have continued. Despite Rogan’s thoughts about the decision, Prochazka appeared to have no complaints about it. Moreover, he promised to return stronger in the next fight.

Dana White clears the air about Conor McGregor fighting Michael Chandler at UFC 300

Although UFC 295 saw two new champions getting crowned, people were more interested in another fighter. That is none other than Conor McGregor. During the post-fight press conference, an MMA media personnel asked Dana White about ‘The Schmo’s recent claims about his sources stating that Conor McGregor is returning to fight Michael Chandler at UFC 300. The UFC CEO had an interesting response to it.

“If The Schmo said [then] it must be true,” Dana White said jokingly while addressing the rumor. He assured the fans that they are working on that behind the scenes while claiming that Conor McGregor is eager to get inside the Octagon. White further stated, “He [Conor McGregor] is definitely chomping at the bit to fight again.” However, when it comes to the date of his return, that is still not yet fixed. “There is no date,” added the UFC CEO. We will have to wait for any further developments on that front.
