Does Joe Rogan actually know that much about professional kickboxing?

Yes he does. Its crazy amount of stuff Joe Rogan knows, that doesnt mean he knows everything, probably does not follow for example thai boxing that actively. Rogan is one busy man, doing all the things the does. He puts out thousands of hours of material, picking up small points where is wrong in all this stuff is kinda silly.
 
I remember him praising Ronda's striking ability, it was hilarious.

I mean I think Ronda's amazing... but her stand up isn't the best...
to answer you rogan probably doesn't know much about anything short of mma but does it really matter?
mma is a niche sport and is popular compared to kickboxing and thaiboxing so i wouldn't expect him to know anyway. hell most of us couldn't name 5 current professional boxers regardless of weigh-class and it's the paramount of fighting sports as far as big money fights go.
 
When he's sober? He probably has a good understanding. When he's broadcasting or doing a podcast? Well...if his understanding is proportional to his sobriety, he probably doesn't know very much, unless it's one of the rare times where Goldie stumbles upon Joe's stash, in which case Rogan will be perfectly knowledgeable, and we'll get some great Goldie moments like "the Michael Jordan of BJJ" or "He's got him in a choke I've never seen before, Joe!" "That's a rear naked choke, Mike"
 
He's a TKD champ so therefore he knows everything there is to know about kickboxing. And because he is a commentator for the biggest MMA and MMA is everything he also knows everything about everything. Guy's a legend.
