    Joe Rogan- "Connor wasn't even trying to hit that hard."

    Thoughts?
    Being a good company man?
    Too emotionally attached?

    Edit: Let me put into context
    Schaub was talking about how Floyd said Connor wasn't that hard of a puncher.
    Rogan interjected with " But Connor did not look like he was putting a lot of power in his punches."

    Rogan can definitely be emotional lol. Was hyping Rousey as the best thing since Islam not THAT long ago.

    I'll hold off til I hear the full context of how Rogan saw the fight to judge it more, but too emotional would be my guess more than a good company man cuz he's doing whatever he wants & hasn't been fired yet so idk that he is actually good company man necessarily despite knowing his role during an event.

      Oh yeah that makes sense.

      He was gonna fookin knock him out in 2 rounds by not trying to punch hard.

        He doesn't hit hard, that's why.

        It's alright knocking guys down in UFC but they're doing half the work for Conor by steaming into his shots head first.

          Rogan is either a super-loyal company man or extremely delusional when it comes to this fight. I'm gonna say it's a bit of both. I like his podcast, but...

          Before the fight - "Conor's beat tougher guys than Floyd"

            Great strategy. Typical combat sports strategy - never throw a hard punch.

              They're eating their own cake..will take time..

              Brendan Schaub was still in denial and had an altercation with Nate Diaz at the venue. Its on Youtube.

              Basically Diaz said fùck the bullshìt... and said F U to Brendan.

              It is a clear form of denial when a BJJ Balckbelt in Diaz tapped McBoner out yet Schaub doesn't want to hear it

                  a lot of people noticed this too..

                  the way i see it , was because he was afraid to get countered with something big
