A victory of Alex Poatan about Khalil Rountree Jr. No. UFC 307, an event held last Saturday (5), continues to generate interesting reactions throughout the MMA world. According to Joe Rogan, one of the main official UFC commentators, even referee Marc Goddard has been impressed by the power of the light heavyweight world champion's (up to 93 kg) blows.

Shortly after conducting the interviews inside the octagon, Rogan, who has worked for the organization since 1997 and participated in the North American broadcast of UFC 307, confessed to the public a quick conversation with Goddard, in which the referee expressed his shock at the knockout power of Alex Poatán.
“I was in the Octagon after the fight and Marc Goddard came up to me and said, ‘I’ve been doing this for 20 years. The way he hits people, the way he sounds, it’s unlike anything I’ve ever heard before.’ He said, ‘It’s disgusting,’” Joe Rogan said.
A well-known figure in major UFC fights, Goddard has also been an eyewitness to the Brazilian's knockouts. In addition to his victory last Saturday, the referee was the third man in the octagon in Poatan's triumphs against Israel adesanya, Jan Blachowicz e Jiri Prochazka.
