Joe Rogan is a friend of Dana White, but that doesn't mean he agrees with all of his decisions. And one of them is driving the UFC's official commentator crazy. The executive has stated, more than once, that he's not a fan of the idea of ​​authorizing... Jon Jones to fight at UFC White House, an event scheduled to take place in June in Washington (USA). Aware of the company president's position, the veteran fighter confronted him directly.

Fearing the absence of the MMA icon, the UFC commentator believes it would be a tremendous mistake for Dana to ignore his constant requests to return to fight in the historic and unique event. According to Rogan, the grandeur of the show demands the presence of stellar names, and Jones fulfills that requirement, as he is considered by many to be the greatest and best fighter in MMA history.
