Joe Rogan labels former champion as UFC’s GOAT
The conversation of who is the UFC’s greatest ever fighter is one which creates plenty of debate amongst MMA fans.
Now UFC commentator Joe Rogan has given his verdict on who is the UFC’s GOAT.
Rogan has been cageside for a number of years and has witnessed the likes of Jon Jones and Georges St-Pierre make history inside the Octagon.
However, when it came to picking who he thinks is the UFC’s greatest ever fighter, Rogan opted for a surprise name in Demetrious Johnson.
“It’s hard to say, but it might have been Mighty Mouse,” Rogan said during an appearance on Hotboxin’ with Mike Tyson.
“When Mighty Mouse was in his prime, he was so magnificent, he was so fast, and he was doing things that you couldn’t believe how he could do (that).”
During his time with the UFC, Johnson became the organisation’s first ever flyweight champion and made 11 title defences during his reign, a feat which has only been matched by current UFC heavyweight champion Jon Jones.
