The Time Joe Rogan Destroyed Jon Anik

[josh345]

He redeemed some of his poor announcing lately with this burn of anik.

 

[Siver!]

A rare RoboAnik glitch there

I feel like this thread is gonna be popular, but this isn't actually a knock on Anik, he's GOOD.

Just wanna get that in early.

I did some local commentary for super smash ultimate tournaments.. you would be surprised how hard it is in the moment to speak intelligently about something you know.

 

[Ashen One]

Anik is bad

But Rogan is mean

 

[Gamer2k4]

Funny moment...it's not often you case Anik slipping! lol

Agreed. I'd call this the exception that proves the rule, because Anik is normally completely on point.

And, by the end of the fight, the crowd were chanting "SEAN O'MALLEY"

It doesn't matter.

But before the actually fight, it was all about "rising superstar" not "defending champion"
I feel like they have a list of tag words when they want to hook in people that only tune in to combat sports for the Jake Paul's and the McGregor.

 

[Spam On Rye]

Haven't watched live commentary in years. There's tons of fight commentaries out there with people who actually care about the sport.

 

[BigSexy444]

Rogan has his faults but he doesn't need this job which gives him leverage to call out BS.

 

[GrantB13]

Gotta try to hype the challenge up any way they can because it's all about hyperbole and history. MMA is so fixated on the "mosts" or "firsts".

 

[Harlekin]

On the other side, Rogan destroyed himself about 8000 times

 

[Pechan]

Anik was lucky that it wasn't Mean Dom Cruz that got him with that blunder.

 

[bean88]

This exchange made me laugh out loud, he really had no idea they not only already fought but that Chito stopped him? <45>

 

[Chad R. Thundercock]

Goddamn it. I want Goldberg back.

 

[Venom]

Anik is overall pretty sharp and professional.

Let's not kid ourselves Rogan has a shitload of dumb moments commentating on and off the sport.

 

[Kal-El]

Didn't he at some point say "O'Malley locking eyes with President trump there"

Wtf had that got to do with anything?

He's too obscure sometimes "one more sleep" the whole thing about the two guys without visiting rights for their kids or whatever that was.

At this Pont though I can't stand Rogan either. He's probably still worse

Well, Anik hates MMA fans and is going to move on to women's soccer where all the positivity is by 2026, so....

Media - Jon Anik tired of negativity from MMA fans, might leave in 2026

I am growing tired of this MMA space a little bit and just the morass of negativity when there is a close fight because even if you and I both thought Dricus du Plessis won the fight, we try to present that information respectfully and when I go on to X or I go to our YouTube comments, it seems...

To be fair, I can hardly sit through those lame ass UFC pep rally videos with the drunk 19 year olds shitting on Arman, and all the other ones out there. I couldn't imagine if it was my job to attend every single one of these events where you're one of the faces of the business so you have to be cordial while dealing with these insanely manic people.

People who have never done public speaking really overestimate the human mind's ability to recall in certain moments lol that's why the best commentators in the game truly deserve a lot of respect. You have to have a sharp mind to have full recall and the ability to have wit nearly 100% of the time you're public speaking.

 

[Pictureonthewall]

Sherdog have the best commenters, judges, referees and trainers.

 

[Bret 'The Hitman' Hart]

Rogan has his faults but he doesn't need this job which gives him leverage to call out BS.

But he's himself the biggest perpetuator of bullshit and false narratives

 

[Ornife]

That constitutes being "destroyed"?
