Having sat Octagon-side for thousands of fights over the years as color-commentator for the UFC, Joe Rogan is as good a judge as anyone as to the quality of a fight, and in the aftermath of UFC 165 on Saturday night he declared the scintillating main event 205lb title encounter between Jon Jones and Alexander Gustafsson that he’d just witnessed as the best of the best.
“We’re going to call it the greatest fight you and I have had the chance to call?” commentator Mike Goldberg asked him at the end of the pay-per-view event.
“It was an amazing fight, and especially considering what was at stake, I think it was the great we’ve ever seen,” Rogan stated.
