UFC commentator Joe Rogan was thoroughly entertained and impressed with last weekend’s UFC Austin main event between Donald Cerrone and Yancy Medeiros. So much so, that he felt the need to watch it twice.
Joe then decided, after his second viewing of the fight, to share a lengthy 200 word reaction to the bout with his 3 Million followers on Instagram.
It was all good and well, until Nick Diaz read Rogan’s statement, and decided to comment on it, and win today’s internet in the process.
Here’s what Joe said:
I just got home from the @icehousecc and decided to unwind by rewatching this epic fight between @yancymedeiros and @cowboycerrone. This fight wasn’t just epic because it launched cowboy into a 3 way tie with @mikebisping and @georgesstpierre for the most wins ever in the UFC (20). It was also a special fight in that one of the things that was so enjoyable about the fight was the respect the two had for each other, both before and after their one round of chaos. They even embraced in friendship in the middle of a round, and I fucking loved it.
They briefly paused to hug and then went right back to a full tilt brawl. They both just went for it with pure respect and love for each other, and they both swung for the fences. Cowboy wound up connecting with a pinpoint right hand and wound up getting the stoppage right before the buzzer. It was epic, and then again, after it was over there was nothing but love and respect.
I thought it was all around an awesome experience to watch it even a second time. Thank you, gentlemen, for a great moment in MMA, and a really fun fight to watch.
Now, since we cannot embed Instagram comments on our website, or any website for that matter, we have to provide you with a screen cap of Nick’s short, but thoroughly entertaining reaction to Joe Rogan.
