Joe Rogan, a lifelong martial artist, often breaks down and reveals a lot of fight-related information on his famous podcast. ‘JRE’ viewers get notified about the incidents about to happen in the UFC a lot earlier than general UFC fans. Most UFC audiences may have learned about the debut of Dagestani fighter Sharaputdin Magomedov at UFC 294 recently. But Rogan had discussed ‘Shara Bullet’s’ entry into the UFC months ago.

A lot of fans may also be aware of Magomedov’s defective right eye. The Dagestani doesn’t have any vision left in his right eye but still boasts an 11-0 record.
