Joe Rogan bad tidigare om ursäkt till Daniel Cormier efter att han intervjuat Cormier direkt efter denne blivit knockad av Jon Jones på UFC 214, något som går emot Rogans egna regler.
Nu har Rogan förklarat vad som hände i sin podcast Joe Rogan Experience.
You gotta realize when a KO like that happens in a world championship fight and you’re standing in the Octagon, you’re surrounded by all these people screaming and cheering. The f**king noise is so loud. It’s hard to figure out what the f**k is happening.
I went to go talk to him and literally as I’m going to talk to him, he’s turning to me and I have the microphone. I’m like, why am I interviewing him after he got knocked out? What the f**k is wrong with me? I didn’t even realize what I was doing. I was in shock almost. I went on instinct.
Nedan kan ni se intervjun:
Rogan har tidigare uttryckt misstycke till att intervjua fighters som blivit knockade och sade i september att han aldrig skulle göra det igen. Det verkar som att han kommer fortsätta hålla på den principen i framtiden.
It was just me thinking, ‘Why did I do that? Why did I interview him?’ I shouldn’t have interviewed him even though we used to do it for every fight. It was the right move to stop doing it and ironically it was my idea.
