Joe Rogan is no stranger to arguing and proving his point. But he recently seemed to back out from arguing against the flat-earth theorist Bryce Mitchell, who also is a UFC fighter. The featherweight fighter previously challenged the popular podcaster to a debate, but apparently, the 55-year-old wants none of it.

Bryce Mitchell took offense to Joe Rogan, not subscribing to the flat-earth theory
Joe Rogan didn’t accept UFC fighter Bryce Mitchell’s challenge of debating on his theory supporting the earth being flat. The featherweight fighter had previously challenged Joe Rogan’s beliefs about being wrong through his Instagram account. However, the famous podcaster chose not to respond, after apparently insulting the American fighters’ beliefs openly on his podcast.
Mitchell told “He sissied out, but that’s alright,”
“The thing is if I call somebody stupid and make fun of them for their beliefs, I’m gonna explain to them exactly why.”
“I could do that in a debate, but he wants to call people stupid than not debate them. That’s my problem.” ‘Thug Nasty’ added, explaining that he didn’t appreciate the lack of respect shown by the former Fear Factor host.

“If he wants to call me stupid, at least debate me,” said the 28-year-old, who felt as if he didn’t get any opportunity to explain himself. The JRE host insulted his whole family according to the featherweight contender.
The UFC commentator basically called his whole family stupid
“Me and my mom, and all my friends that believe it and stuff, he’s calling all of us stupid. So, I’m just telling him he oughta debate somebody like me and he’d lose (laughs)”, said ‘Thug Nasty’.
