Ryan Hall trashes on Joe Rogan's commentary

[Willek]

I always laugh at how Rogan puts himself on the same level as fighters that have actually stepped foot in the Octagon.

 

[Kuggk]

laying on the ground and waiting for someone to jump in your guard is not fighting
see nick serra dq

Don't remind us. That was a terrible fight lol.

 

[Irishwhiskey119]

Is he right that it doesn't make sense? Wouldn't explode in this case simply mean to use a lot of energy and try to get into a better position.

Rogan does say some pretty ridiculous stuff some times but i don't think this qualifies.

Getting out from side control bottom at this level you have to gamble WAY too much energy and the % of success is not good so you are killing your gas tank for a chance to get out that in most cases won't work because holding side top at the UFC level has evolved so much that they hold it easier.

Rogan isn't completely wrong but saying that exploding out is the best option is just wrong. Maybe early in round 1.

 

[The Accuser]

Is there an example of a colour commentator who is vastly superior to Joe Rogan? Rogan is not perfect, but he is not as terrible as some people say.

Stann

I agree with what you said, it makes sense. Exploding might not be a good option there.

But that wasn't hall's criticism. He said he doesn't know what Rogan is talking about. You and I can clearly tell what Rogan meant but we disagree with him.

I think Ryan was being more of a douche there.

Hall is my new least liked fighter. He reminds me of Jimmy Young sticking his head outside of the ropes when fighting Ali in the 1970's. I wish Maynard's corner was smart enough to tell him to stand near Hall and periodically kick his legs and take a massively boring decision. Hall's flopping when Maynard was close enough to punch shouldn't be tolerated in the scoring of his fights.

Hall is a HIGHLY decorated BJJ blackbelt. Id take his opinion over rogans any day of the week.
I dont see anytying negative other than confusion. But youre one of those people that i think are just looking for a reason to hate hall because i think you really like Rogan. So ANYTHING even remotely negative, youll probably over react to.

Hall still won those fights btw.

Stann

LMAO Stann is the worst color guy in the UFC

Rogan > Cruz > Dan Hardy > DC > Florian > Stann

But that's what Ryan means though. Exactly what i said.

Hall grappled his entire life he's not gonna say something crazy. lol

But with a short time clock for MMA Hall may not be used to needing to work faster so that might be something he isn't considering. Idk.

 

[MMA-woooooh!!!!]

hall would beat rogan, so that makes what hall said the more correct of the two right?

I think you like the flash and excitement, ive thought that all of those guys technical analysis are on point...except for DC

 

[Deleted member 196663]

I think its about time fighters start talking back about how bad Joe's commentary has gotten lately

Joe's been grappling for a while too, so who gives a fuck if he didn't like a word or two.

 

[jeff7b9]

Is Hall just really fucking dumb?

Using fast powerful movement to get up... not a hard concept to grasp, Joe is conveying it in fairly simple and direct language.

Rogan kimura RD 1.

Rogan is a Jean Jacques Macado black belt. You say that like he's one of those mini-mall happy meal black belts.

 

[Hoop]

Is there an example of a colour commentator who is vastly superior to Joe Rogan? Rogan is not perfect, but he is not as terrible as some people say.

True.

But I thought there were a lot of "he's hurt, Mike" moments, when the fighter did take a big shot, but wasn't wobbled or staggering.

Hall seems a bit of a miserable so and so.

 

[sonhow]

Hall doesnt know what the definition of explosive means.

Oh the irony...

 

[SoSoSmart]

Rogan means "explode your bowels" Because of smell of shit, will make your opponent back the fuck off. Even if they are in full mount. They will automatically stand up and get off of you.

 

[ArtOfDrowning]

We all have seen a guy lay there gassed like a dead fish. Everyone knows exactly what Rogan means by his comment and he's right.

First Rogan say guy should explode. Then when someone does it he totally trashes them: "Oh deeerp, you don't just explode from side control. You need to use skill"

Well which one is it Joe?
