Longtime UFC commentator Joe Rogan often finds himself under fire when a fighters been knocked out and he still pushes them to ask the tough questions.
That’s because when a fighter has just been removed from consciousness there’s cobwebs in the way of clear and precise thoughts, making a public interview not the wisest of choices.
Still though, despite Joe Rogan knowing this to be true, he still went out of his box and interviewed Cormier after his fight with Jon Jones.
Rogan has since come under fire by D.C.’s team and fight fans, and as such just issued a public apology to Daniel Cormier.
Check it:
“My apologies to D.C. And to everyone else upset at me for interviewing him after the fight. In all honestly I was kind of in shock and I don’t think I realized what I was doing until I had a mic in my hand and I was talking to him.<
I’ve said that I don’t want to interview fighters after they’ve been KO’ed and then I did it to someone that I care a great deal about. It was 100% my fuck up and no one pressured me to do it.
I posted a series of tweets about it on twitter but I know some of you folks only use instagram or Facebook so I thought the right thing to do is post it here as well.
I was beating myself up about it all night, and whenever something like that happens it’s always my sincere intention to apologize and express my honest feelings.
It’ll never happen again.”
