Joe Rogan quote about Weidman at UFC 152.

[NYmmamafia]

"Oh he's not just in the mix - he's DANGEROUS... That is a very scary man, Chris Weidman.
"Weidman is, in my opinion, a true freak. And he's one of those dudes - you don't fight him and you fight him 6 months later? You made a mistake. Because in 6 months, he got twice as good.
"Matt Serra does not give the kind of compliments he does about Chris Weidman very lightly. When he talks highly like that about a guy - you believe him. And he's shown it time and time again in the octagon, especially the Munoz fight, and the Tom Lawlor fight..
"I mean his submissions are excellent, his strikes are improving day by day, getting better.
"A dangerous threat.
"And I really hope he gets a chance eventually at Anderson Silva, I think that'd be an amazing fight"


Rogan said this almost a year and a half ago during the Stann-Bisping fight. I have to give Rogan credit on this one.

 

[Degen Gambler]

Rogan hypes up a lot of people. Sometimes it turns out right.

 

[Lifer]

Houston Alexander is for real

 

[Fight Professor]

He said the same things about Lesnar.

 

[Eizo2k]

You just invented a game.
1. Take notes when a fighter walks into the octagon, and Rogan is hyping them.
2. Wait until a upset happens, go back to your notes and voil

Rogan, and any UFC employee in general, say the game generic bullshit about every UFC fighter.

 

[ALAN PARTRIDGE]

so what

 

[Edgar Allan Hoe]

Rogan, and any UFC employee in general, say the game generic bullshit about every UFC fighter.

Rogan can be very genuine when the UFC spotlight isn't shining on him though. If the quote was from a podcast or an impromptu interview I wouldn't immediately dismiss it as corporate strategy.

Joe Rogan. The man who has everyone getting choked by the guillotine. It's in tight man, then he gets out. He's said the same thing about hundreds of fighters. I'll never forget him saying the Ken that fought Tito was the best Ken ever. Don't take serious after that.

Che Mills is a beast

^This. Rogan has made the exact same kind of hyperbolic comments about every single fighter who's put together a decent winning streak over the past decade.

There's so much breathless hyperbole that I'd can't take any of the complementary comments that he makes about fighters seriously.

 

[RiotWyatt]

lots of hate in this thread.

Who else has Rogan said those particular things about?

 

[GrindingANARCHY]

Rogan knows.

He's great at what he does even if you don't always agree with him.

 

[Rhamnetin]

lots of hate in this thread.

Who else has Rogan said those particular things about?

Wasn't he on the Vera hype train before?

 

[UAK]

lots of hate in this thread.

Who else has Rogan said those particular things about?

How about every single guy on 3 or more fight win streak?

Please tell me who he hasn't hyped up...

 

[Beastos]

What else would he say? The dudes been on a tear lol, and so were the ones he's talked about before. Or at least a good showing.

Welcome to the machida era

 

[Phisher]

Che Mills is a beast

"Mike, Che Mills is solid. Everything about him is solid. His striking is solid, his submission game is solid and his stool is solid. Even his solidity is solid, and he's a KILLER too. He broke a guy's neck at the fighter hotel last night just for the fuck of it. THAT'S how much of a solid killer he is. When you're a SOLID KILLER, who possesses the deadly next level solidity of a guy like Che Mills, the sky's the limit."

 

[Tankeray]

"uh oh he's got him in rubber guard now...that's a very effective technique when you want to....oh and he slipped out!!"
