People’s feelings are theirs, not scientific facts and he’s saying, “I’m sorry I offended you with facts.” When he says “I’ve been wrong before…” he doesn’t mention what he was wrong about or when and adding “I will try to do better.” is as general as it gets.

He's not saying to avoid wearing masks, getting vaccinated or following rules, people just hear what they want to hear.

@@jonathansoko1085 It's too funny to read stuff like this in every comment section. Inevitably there's someone trying to seem intelligent & defend the UFC by highlighting some fighter's inability to sell PPVs, yet simultaneously exposing the fact they've totally missed the forest for the trees. The UFC tries to make it seem like fighters who generate 250K or 350K PPV buys "aren't needlemovers" & therefore position the fighter as being a whiner w/unreasonable contract demand. Tyson Fury & Deontay Wilder earned $10MM+ EACH for their 1st fight, w/Wilder's guaranteed purse being $4M & Fury's being $3M, w/both earning $7.5M+ from PPV sales. Total PPV buys? 350K. They followed this w/Fury Wilder 2, which sold approx. 800K PPVs. The GUARANTEED payouts? Fury got $30M & Wilder got $20M. Jon & DC sold 1.7MM PPVs in total across their two fights. The guaranteed purses given to Jon were $500K for UFC 182 (800K PPV buys) & $500K for UFC 214 (860K buys) while DC earned $90K for UFC 182 & $1M flat for UFC 214. The fact of the matter is, the UFC is an organization which VASTLY underpays its champions/talented fighters but it EXPLICITLY RAPES their marketable/popular talent w/NO MERCY. Hell, even Conor, despite what BS he spews about "earning $80M" for fighting Cerrone, in reality earns a PITTANCE of what he should. I mean a bunch of UFC financials have come out in their antitrust lawsuit & showed the UFC paid Conor a TOTAL of $8.5M in 2015 despite selling 2 MILLION PPVs in total.

At least she tries

[@ronniessebaggala362]

I love how after every UFC weekend Joe can't wait to talk about the fights, regardless of the guest/s 😅

[@LouieSmithSenior]

Francis vs Wilder might be a good fight, I'd like to see which one hits the hardest. I think Fury would be way to much of a boxer for him.

[@cryptocaesar8972]

I think Francis is all around stronger than wilder but wilder from years of training specific shot knows how to throw a better boxing punch. All the short shots and everything Francis would be much stronger

[@dharandini2742]

He should fight Derek Chisora first. Get an understanding of his cardio.

[@patrickcorrigan3906]

Need the full interview with Andy!!

[@sandiledube279]

Thank you for the podcast, Joe! Appreciate you.

[@Riclmnopp]

Sounds like Rogan has the sniffles. I'm sure CNN is looking into it.

A quick story from Africa , “ one guy went hunting a lion who was scaring his village , he climbed a tree and waiting for the lion , meanwhile he fell asleep by the time he woken up at his surprise the lion was right under the tree , he flinched and his gun fell all the way down and the the stripe of the gun hang on the lion’s neck , the lion took off ; when the guy went back to his village he told everyone, you were only scared of the lion ? Yes they said , he replied now he has a gun “ You were scared of Francis punches ? Now he wrestles and grapple

To anybody who’s reading this, I pray that whatever is hurting you or whatever you are constantly stressing about gets better. May the dark thoughts, the overthinking, and the doubt exit your mind right now. May clarity replace confusion. May peace and calmness fill your life.

Been waiting on this

[@robmarley420]

Fury agreed to fight Francis with the small gloves. That would be 100x more interesting than Conor vs Floyd . A little middle ground for them

[@danielkinn782]

Fury would wreck Francis. Francis has power yes but technically Fury is light years ahead.

[@robmarley420]

@@danielkinn782 of course he would. And if Conor can get a pay day why can’t Francis? Francis would look pretty decent if he was healthy and only had to focus on boxing for 6-7 months. Definitely won’t beat the gypsy king tho even with the small gloves. But it would be more interesting

[@goBIRDS_phi]

@@robmarley420 nahhhh. I’m a huge Francis fan and he has cements in his hands but boxing the top guys in world he’s light years behind. Hell slways have a punchers chance but he’s not some technical boxer whose sound in the shit that matters

[@robmarley420]

@@goBIRDS_phi I think with the 4oz gloves it would make the fight more interesting. I still think fury wins handedly. But Francis only focused on boxing for 7-8 months going in would make it an entertaining fight. And it’d be much more entertaining than Floyd vs Conor 100%

[@harolddpvp8994]

Francis’ story is unbelievable. No one deserves the HW title more than him.

[@AmritGrewal31]

That's not a sport of stories though

[@mikep6560]

Finally found someone comment on it. Especially when he said that before he got covid he hadn’t been sick in 15yrs

[@willav9267]

I really like MMA, but I'm not someone to watch every PPV, usually just the big fights and mostly Bisping. But I just found myself watching Francis since his second bout in UFC and I've been hooked on watching all of his fights. He's got such an incredible story and to see his progression in those multiple disciplines has been brilliant.

[@SpodyOdy]

Love the Sakuraba reference👍😎

[@SteelerNationBaby]

Francis is a good humble gracious man. He wants good for other fighters now and after him. He is not greedy, simply seeks income justice. His talent, ability and drive to maximize his abilities is amazing and good for all ufc mma fans.

[@jeffjohnson1464]

Humble and gracious?? Everybody that actually knows him talks about his ego being through the roof.

[@jeffjohnson1464]

@@mzeemfalme your right i dont like him. Do you like every single ufc fighter?

[@jeffjohnson1464]

@@mzeemfalme i have a life to. You dont have basketball players or football players you like and some you don't?? I don't follow football or basketball just. Mma. That was my opinion. We don't have to agree on it.

[@Raptured_and_back]

Ciryl looked so perfect in the stand up, and I know he has good ground game, but Ngannou's Jiu Jitsu was better. The technique was better.

[@harrydunn8883]

Ahhh I think you mean wrestling, Ciryl Gane was the only one who attempted submissions.

[@cryptocaesar8972]

His ground game isn’t that good. Unfortunately throughout the whole heavyweight division there are very few grapplers right now. Nearly everyone has a stand up background except for like Curtis blades. Werdum brought the Jiu jitsu but isn’t around anymore. In fact many light heavyweights and heavyweights used to grapple real well, randleman, Coleman, Fedor, Nog. Nowadays we don’t see Jiu jitsu champions or sambo champions at heavyweight.

[@Raptured_and_back]

@@harrydunn8883 Ngannou attempted submissions a couple times.

[@micahjohnson138]

Ciryl was running without damage even 1 judge give nganou round 1 he was not so good gane

great interview w/ Francis after the fight

[@Realhater1352]

good thing about california is they show the fight night weight. cyril was 245 and ngannou was 260 iirc

"Easy times create weak men..." a lot of softies getting offended by dudes conversing, don't watch if you feelings get hurt. Train by day, Joe Rogan by night, all day!

[@anasshahid224]

Francis Ngannou’s journey is so inspirational, from working in sand mines in Cameroon as a kid to immigrating to France, with no money, being homeless, training in MMA, becoming a star in the UFC and the Heavyweight champion, then he decided to bet on him self, left the UFC, signed with the PFL and now will be the chairman of PFL Africa as well as getting the big money fight with Tyson Fury, what a journey 👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@terriblepaulsey4904]

Joe Rogan should get a bunch of investors and start his own media company . He could offer the app for free much like Spotify 's and recruit people like Adam Corolla, Russell Brandt etc. I think he's powerful enough at this point to do it.

Francis snacked on a spinning heel kick and barely made him flinch.

For anyone interested, Frances weighed like 259 on fight day. There is a list of all the weights.

Still is.
