Longtime UFC commentator Joe Rogan recently revealed that he nearly broke into tears while interviewing UFC Women’s Bantamweight Champion Ronda Rousey after her 34-second destruction of Bethe Correia at UFC 190 this past Saturday night.
Rogan took to social media shortly after the fight, calling Rousey “something insanely special,” and revealing the fact that he “almost cried” while interviewing her inside the Octagon, a revelation that he says led to fans calling him a “b*tch.”
You can watch Rogan holding back tears while interviewing Rousey in the cage via the above video, and you can read Rogan’s comments about the situation below.
That was the first time I ever almost cried while interviewing a fighter. @RondaRousey is something insanely special.

I woke up to a parade of tweets calling me a bitch for almost crying during the @RondaRousey interview last night. #GuiltyAsCharged
