Joe Rogan

The only thing I didn't like listening to from Joe has been both the recent illegal knees. He definitely over reacted in both cases.

Besides that he's been great. Dom has been worse, constantly saying "it's over" prematurely, or "let's see what he can do here" with only 2 seconds left in the round.
 
That's what a color commentator is supposed to do, no? Give personal opinion based on expertise and experience. Otherwise he would be a play-by-play guy.

His opinions suck though.

"Oh! He's hurt!" (Shot barely landed, guy is fine)

"This is tight, he's gonna tap!" (Gets out two seconds later)

Agreed, but he can do away with his bias though.

That's not really an opinion....it's what he's seeing from his POV.

Cageside sucks WRT viewing the fights. Same problem the judges have.
 
Joe has recently become very annoying.
Granted he knows a bit about MMA. Even so, he cant refrain from scoring fights, giving lots of advice and passing down judgement instead of just commentating. Pure annoyance.
Joe Rogan doesn't know that much about MMA. He is a UFC fan and 10th Planet BJJ guy. Dude doesn't watch Bellator events unless it's a fighter he recognizes.

If you listen to his podcasts and commentary, it's obvious that he is NOT an expert ant anything. His opinion should be taken with big grains of salt and lots of water.
