Joe Rogan has been in the UFC for a very long time and has been interviewing athletes before and after the fight. Rogan experienced many things during his promotion and found himself in many scenarios.
One such incident occurred at an official encounter. UFC 168 It took place in 2013 between Ronda Rousey and Miesha Tate. During the match, Rogan was caught by cameras staring at Rousey as she undressed for a face-to-face match. In the clip, Rogan can be clearly seen staring at Rousey, who is in great shape after losing weight. Rogan also made some weird expressions that were also noticed by the fans. Rogan is loved by his fans, his actions did not question his character. On the contrary, fans actually understood Rogan’s condition and why he couldn’t control himself from staring.
Something like this isn’t all that uncommon, as female fighters stand out a lot when they undress during official matches. Something similar happened at UFC 196, where Meisha Tate was involved. During their weigh-in, Tate was in great shape and the officer standing behind him couldn’t help looking at Tate. Despite her best efforts not to do so, she failed. In this case, rogan she was there and interviewed Tate, but this time things didn’t go like the Ronda Rousey case.

“I pumped it. I was the one who did a lot, but it was based on what he had already accomplished. It wasn’t based on bulls***. It was based on his actual performance,” said.
It was a successful move for the UFC because Rousey was the face of promotion for several years. However, he lost his title shortly after that and retired from the UFC. But all this marketing helped Rousey gain immense popularity when she later joined WWE.
