  • Joe Rogan has such an open mind and thinking about life. That's my kind of person

  • WAR ROGAN !!!

  • I can't believe Ariel Helwani hasn't been scooped up by ESPN yet. Maybe ESPN has tried but at this point who knows maybe he is making more on the internet then he would at ESPN

  • "I've known him for months!" lol

  • UFC has a ressource other competitors cant copy: joe rogan! nothing worse than a terrible commentator, joe makes a boring fight interesting 

  • Don Cherry: 'Gretzky's got 50 before anybody else got 30!"

  • Ariel had to stand up forever.

  • Joe speaks words only psychedelic drugs can inspire, only he could make mma sound so philosophical

  • Interesting for Helwani to list Cossell and Jim Gray as the two media personalities he studies. Both of them are the same sort of instigators Helwani's been the past few years. As "unprofessional" as it may seem, it leads to a solid gold promo like his Backstage with Chael Sonnen clip.

  • lol at Redban

  • Joe Rogan - You are an awesome broadcaster

  • Redban & Doug Benson at 0:00

  • I've always looked at regrets the same way. You can't look back & say 'woulda, coulda, shoulda.' Shit happens & you just have to move on with your life.

  • THIS IS HOW TO DO IT..SON

    FOR ALL THE NEW COMER..

    TAKE THIS ATTITUDE AND RUN WITH IT.. SON

    THIS IS SO PURE

  • redbans silly laugh in the background.

  • two of the best

  • haha that's fucking sick man! Both dudes are pretty fucking awesome

  • 5:55 Best bleep ever: "Cra*beep* fucking world.."..

  • HE'S ROCKED

  • "Unbelievable!!!!!"

    -Joe Rogan

  • Russ Hodges: "The Giants win the pennant!"

    Al Michaels: "Do you believe in miracles?"

    Howard Cosell: "Down goes Frazier! Down goes Frazier! Down goes Frazier!"

    Joe Rogan: "He's got the Rape Choke in place and just dropping left hands"

  • @REblair1 I would also accept, "it looks like a goat's vagina."

  • @REblair1 HAHA

  • @REblair1 dude i remember that, matt hammil fight right????

  • redban's laugh at the end haha creepy little fuck. love him tho

  • Ariel was right when he talked about how Joe will go down in history as the iconic mma commentator, and Joe was right when he talked about how Ariel is the best mma interviewer in the business. Keep up the good work, both of you!

  • Joe Rogan is the best commentator ever.

  • I love Joe's commentary, but the one thing that's really missing from UFC commentary wise is a knowledgeable striker. When it goes to the ground Joe is perfect, but neither him nor Goldie can really get the same level of technical detail when it comes to striking. Bring in Bas Rutten to work with Joe Rogan and you'd have the perfect broadcast team.

  • @Phoeniflyer YES. me and my buddys were talking the other week that Bas and Joe would be the ultimate broadcasting team. put goldberg backstage interviewing the fighters or some shit haha

  • @AdamoC3

    two color commentator? that would suck. Imagine Joe or Bas yelling out commercials. 

  • @Suuulan Whats wrong with Bas yelling out commercials? He's got the accent for it lol

  • @Phoeniflyer I think he does well commentating the striking as well. He's a huge boxing fan so you can bet he knows a good amount of technique there. And he's a TKD black belt/champ so he definitely knows striking.

  • Rogan is right though.. Ariel is the best MMA journalist in the biz right now. And Rogan is the smartest guy alive.

  • i need to be more like joe rogan. think i'll start by smoking this joint

  • REDBAN

  • Good job Ariel.

  • nigger cunt

  • rape choke!

  • Joe is wrong. He does have a line that will ring in the annals - "That guy is my hero!"

  • I don't mean to get on the Ariel bandwagon, but I have to agree with most viewers in that he does a good job.

    Props to Joe Rogan too, I always enjoy his commentary.

    Have a good day people.

  • Ariel is the best interviewer. Rogan has good points. He does a great job because he's a fan

  • Scroll down for more bullshit!

  • Ariel this is a fascinating and great interview! Well done. Joe is an incredible talent who comes across as a well spoken and knowledgeable dude.

  • Damn Joe Rogan went kinda deep.I completely agree with the last 30 sec of this clip Ariel is the fucking best at what he does and he makes it seem effortless.

  • Love Joe, he's such a humble dude!

  • this guy is a real dude.

  • I think both these guys do a great job. Joe is going way over the top with his false modesty. Yes, it's all about the fighters but great commentating does add to the experience. Ariel is right about there being bad commentators. The UFC would go on without Joe, but I really enjoy what he brings to the events.

  • Well, maybe a joke suggestion could be about if one of the fighters actually DOES ask a question when asked by the ref at the beginning of a match, and then maybe keeps asking a few more afterward.

  • great interview...

  • Some of the stuff that Joe commentates in the UFC I believe is inaccurate, but for the most part I think he is the most entertaining MMA commentator.

  • Comment removed

  • Im a huge Joe Rogan fan. I liked him on fear factor and I thought he was gonna be a bit of a joke on UFC but I was super impressed, and still am. I also agree that Ariel Helwani is the best at what he does for sure.

  • @ThaiBox2007 he was doing ufc like 10 years before fear factor....

  • @breastmilkdabestmilk yes you're right. But I saw him on fear factor first, then was getting into UFC later on. I only had a couple old UFC's on tape before Rogan was on it.

  • Really like this guy, very intelligent and aware.

  • Well done Ariel. Absolutely love the interview. Please please please keep up the good work. Very enjoyable content.

  • melvin guillards nerf hair is pretty funny

  • Joe is the man!!!!

  • @mattitudev1hardy well whenever you hear joe rogan say "oh he has him in mission control" or " oh he needs to zombie" or any of that weird slang thats all 10th planet. Joe trains under eddie bravo..

  • No one can replace joe Rogan in the ufc.

  • joe rogan is awesome.

  • joe rogan talks in this conversation like his drunk

  • I've always had a fascination with Joe Rogan. He is a very intelligent Human Being.

  • Joe Rogan is humble.

  • he didn't fuck up the set....

  • joe is the BEST

  • joe rogan is the man.

  • did joe fuck up on stage or something?

  • @Admiral313D Same question. Did he screw up?

  • @Admiral313D Yeah, he talks about it in one of the podcasts. I think he fucked up a joke and it sort of went downhill from there

  • So the UFC could have gotten a HBO deal, but they wanted to replace joe rogan and dana said no?

  • @tgo007 No they wanted total control of the whole creative side of things, which included scrpping the commentators, amongst other things.

  • Did you two call each other regarding the shirts?

  • why is joe rogan always sweating

  • wait a min..never did sitcoms? I loved News Radio!

  • ariel uses way too many hand gestures... lol

  • "That guy is my HEROE!!!!!"

  • fuck that shit, hbo's commentary team wouldnt know what the shit was going on. I'll admit that sometimes rogans 10th planet shit can get annoying but his knowledge of the sport gives a great insight,

  • @howljs what u mean 10th planet? ik its bjj but why 10th planet?

  • the UFC is more enjoyable to watch due to the UFC's good commentating.

  • Joe Rogan can be so damn annoying. Even fighters have mentioned how he thinks he's never wrong.

  • @MaladaptiveCatalyst shutup faggot lmao

  • @uninspired123 you wish i was a faggot, you probably had your cocoa butter lotion ready waiting for my response ya queer  haha

  • @MaladaptiveCatalyst come at me bro

  • @MaladaptiveCatalyst please tell me 1 example when he was wrong. Even in this video he admits that he can be wrong.

  • @MaladaptiveCatalyst Such as who? Give some evidence..

  • @MrBThatsMe during a backstage live ustream for UFC Fitch, Chael Sonnen & Dan Hardy were talking about how Rogan argues even when he is wrong. Rogan is a prime example of a pseudo-intellectual who gets much of his info from random google searches &constantly tries to manipulate the convo to agree with his stream of consciousness rambling/ranting even if he may be completely/partially wrong or unsure. i just think he comes off as a know-it-all, very argumentive &sometimes disagreeable

  • Joe is right ariel! you're the man!

  • awesome

  • humble man

  • thats all u do and u do it fucking great!

  • Rogan for President

  • IVE KNOWN HIM FOR MONTHS! lol!

  • Joe is the bomb

  • gotta love joe rogan. awesome commentator and an awesome person

  • these guys are both awesome. I dont think i could enjoy ufc's as much if joe wasnt commentating, for real

  • nice inside leg kick

  • Joe Rogan with his stoner speeches lol.

  • joe is always high as giraff pussy .hes not gonna claim on that fame when hes waving his stoner pride flag durring all the fights.i totaly get the lack of wanted attention to him announcing all smushed on kush.

  • @grandaddynative wow i guess his use of cannabis really bugs you huh?

  • @grouchybear .i love purp and purp loves me.joe isnt commentating as a career objective. its frank mir and joe that are the only solid dudes that can realy explain the ground action to the common viewer.i think joe is just realy conscious about outshining mike goldburg.now that dude is very career orientated with his position in the sport and if joe realy pushed the issue with hosts being able to relate everything to the viewer poor mike would probabeley get the boot.joe knows and doesnt want it

  • Mike Goldberg is the most intentionally funny commentator out there... great job !!

  • Fuck yeah Joe Rogen, Ariel rules

  • I know people give Rogan shit but I am a fan, he is one of the best commentators out there. Ariel Helwani is fantastic, I am a huge fan of his.

  • IVE KNOWN HIM FOR MONTHS!

  • Ariel....keep up the great work...Like Joe said i like your interviews with the mma world...your pertty smooth and perfessional....love it....And what would mma be without the commentary of Rogan & Golberg....they are the best at what they do....they make the fights so kickass exciting and educational...

  • joe rogan is soo humble..great guy

  • @brabbit695 joe is cool, but humble? idk

  • Hey Ariel why are you such a badass?

  • @slapmybassguitar is an isreal bro 

  • Ariel, brilliant interview. Great editing too. I'm curious .... he has such great respect for fighters and (according to Bravo) is a great BJJ player himself ... I'm wondering whether you got a chance to ask him about getting his own fighting, either through mma or BJJ? I wonder whether he takes more pride in his fighting than his commentating?

  • John Madden of the UFC

  • Minute for minute best interview evaaarr.

  • JOE ROGAN FOR THE UFC HALL OF FAME

  • Joe Rogan maybe humble. But like Ariel said. Many years from now when rogan isn't commentating there will be a huge void to fill.

    Whether Joe thinks so or not, he is a huge part of the UFC and one of the best parts of the overall presentation. It will be very difficult to find another honest personality like his.

    He is no doubt a modern day icon. Just look back at so many other famous broadcasters in sports. Rogan no doubt will have his place on the wall as a legend of UFC broadcasting

  • @JohnnyDarko01 i agree but i think he will be recognised along with golberg as the legends of MMA broadcasting because there are no other mma commentators atm that can do the job that they do, the knowledge, the excitement, the craziness. like damn we are lucky enough to witness the era of which a sport is growing so i'm happy

  • @JohnnyDarkothere there will come new guys, someone like ariel helwani, who's very wellspoken and knows the sport inside and out

  • @JohnnyDarko01 im not so sure about that. im a fan of joe but there are a number of guys who could fill his shoes when it comes to mma broadcasting. especially 30 years from now when more people begin to understand the sport and they have sports broadcasting schools with programs dedicated to mma broadcasting. not to mention once former ufc fighters start retiring and start looking for a job. (ex. bas rutten) just look at all the athletes in other sports who retire and move on to broadcasting

  • joe fucking bombed on the show, he was getting boo'ed, there was a time when a beer bottle flung at him and he had to duck. I think he was saying one of his same jokes about monkeys smoking weed or something.

  • if rogan left Ariel should take his place

  • joe looks like wanderlei now. what drugs is he taking to make his lips swell and chap like that. he's still awesome though.

  • I agree with Joe at 8:53

  • Ariel you should've asked Joe about the fleshlight :D

  • "It's nothing, it's easy. It's not hard." "I think you're being too humble." "My effort is minuscule. I'm not proud of it. I don't deserve any accolades." This guy sure does beat up on himself.

  • did he have a bad show or something

  • sweet video ariel :D

  • I also think that the sole reason this is in black in white is that there is a severe clash of shirt colours!

  • Its SO FUCKING OBVIOUS that Rape choke was cut out of the first minute, whats that all about Ariel?

  • how can you not love joe 

  • @ILykToDoDuhDrifting You're one fucking cunt, shut the fuck up. You're a Lab Rat in comparison to Rogan, he'd fucking son you in person you nerd.

  • @ILykToDoDuhDrifting You're probably smarter than him because you believe in religion, right? Lol.

  • @ILykToDoDuhDrifting thank you

    about aliens, seriously?

  • Comment removed

  • they sack that tosser goldberg and replace him with bas rutten, rutten and rogan would be a great commentary duo. cheers

  • Both dudes bring so much to the sport to make it as interesting and entertaining as hell. Love the news you bring the app is great

  • Joe Rogan is an essential part to the UFC!

  • Joe Rogan is the best Colour Commentator.

    Ariel Helwani is the best MMA journo.

    Match made in heaven.

  • "ive known him for months" lmao

  • Joe Rogan, Goldberg and Jim Ross would be fucking awesome!

  • Joe is a great commentator and a funny guy but i find his stand up act not to funny which is a shame.

  • @Nibiru420 It is...

  • "Fuck them I thought u were funny" Tough crowd that night???

  • @etheoreal yeah he knows his shit about mma. but he's an awful comedian

  • UFC wudnt be the same if Joe wasnt commentating

  • Another reason why this is the most entertaining sport in the world.

  • Great Video.

    I loved it in part 1, when Joe asked Ariel "What did you think of the Fedor fight". LOL

  • Re 6:30 ... Joe is a good commentator but he was not there during the sport's birth. Old UFC (pre Zuffa) is when the sport was born. The commentary team for UFC 1 was Bill Wallace, Jim Brown and Kathy Long, with additional analysis from Rod Machado and post-fight interviews by Brian Kilmeade. Honorable mention goes to Jeff Blatnick (UFC 4 to UFC 32).

  • @adoniscomplex i think he kinda meant the "new birth" (post tuf1)

  • lookat Rogan being all modest. He's easily the best.

  • Sickk interview, Ariel... Joe is the most open person in entertainment hands down.

  • really cool interview.

  • Joe and Ariel are awesome!

  • JOE IS THE MAN HANDS DOWN.

  • Joe is a cool motherfucker, I think him being so humble is rare and great.

  • lol joe speaks the truth, ariel is awesome :)

  • "Biiig Right Haaaand"!!!

  • WOW,Ariel you are exceptional.This is such good stuff.Im a huge fan.I love Joe and his honesty also.This was truly incredible

    thank you

  • Great interview guys

    

  • ownage

  • Why Joe is always high?

  • @KAZZARTT he is the best. i mean very open minded person.

  • @KAZZARTT Who cares?

  • @KAZZARTT Smoke a few times and you'll know why.

  • Ariel, dude... i'm sure that you hear this every day of life... but man... you are my favorite interviewer in MMA by far... everything you talk about is what i want to hear. seriously bro. keep up the good work. and i hope you go all the way to the top

    AaronGTV

  • Best Commentator/Analyst and Best Interviewer/MMA Mastermind Eva!!! = Awesomeness to the fullest!!!

  • Smoothest in the business.

  • the guy who gave a thumbs down blows.. joe is the man

  • joe rogan is so insightful

  • Ariel is a very chill interviewer.
