UFC Fans React as Stephen ‘Wonderboy’ Thompson Fails to Break Joe Rogan Record

Joe Rogan is away from the action these days, but he certainly had his moments back in the day. Because his spinning back kick became so popular, Even UFC Legend Georges St-Pierre learned it from the Joe Rogan Experience host. However, Rogan’s powerful record on the PowerKube is an extraordinary feat.

Especially for the UFC Analyst’s size and build, his numbers are off the roof. Measuring at an alarming 152k Franklins. But, 39-year-old Stephen Thompson assembled a group of contenders aimed to break this exact record. The results are in and MMA fans had a clear favorite.

MMA Enthusiasts give Joe Rogan due credit for his kicks

MMA Fans united on an Instagram post of ‘Wonderboy’ to applaud Joe Rogan’s outrageous 152,000 Franklins record on the PowerKube. Because clearly, no one in his weight division could come close to that number with their kicks. However, Tony Thompson tore through his record after multiple attempts.

Nevertheless, Wonderboy’s followers were smart enough to realize they can’t be compared. Mainly due to the sheer difference in size. So, fans wondered about the output Rogan can dish if he were a heavyweight or above.

Users commented on the Instagram post:

Just shows how hard Joe hits, guy looks twice his size

Now imagine if Joe was a heavyweight

That says something tho , only One who beat is record was 2x his size

Machine must be broken 😉 Rogan’s kicks sounded like gunshots

To be fair, that guy’s massive compared to Joe. Still a huge W though

They all agreed that Rogan’s feat was clearly impressive,

Mad because Joe’s kicks still look harder

Joe Rogan vs All

Sheeeesh you gotta be 3 times Rogens size to kick like him

Joe is training at this moment

That dudes leg is as big as Joe Rogan lol!

Therefore, many fans expressed the podcast host’s clear dominance, due to the sheer technique. Some even felt that Rogan was still practicing each day to improve his deadly output.

Stephen Thompson attempts to dethrone The UFC Commentator

Stephen Thompson banded a group of skilled martial artists with one aim. To break Joe Rogan’s PowerKube record for a YouTube video. However, ‘Wonderboy’ himself scored 93,970 franklins on the machine. Which is pretty respectable for his weight class.

Thompson is a man with renewed vigor after his victory over Kevin Holland and looks to want to achieve all his goals. But some things might be out of the 39-year- old’s reach.
