Strikeforce fighter Jason Mayhem Miller thinks CBS announcer Gus Johnson is an “idiot” for his comments at the end of the April Strikeforce show, and UFC announcer Joe Rogan agrees with that assessment.
In a wide-ranging discussion on Rogan’s UStream show, Miller and Rogan expressed their agreement with what many MMA fans said immediately following the CBS broadcast: Johnson made a bad situation even worse by describing the brawl following the main event as the kind of thing that just sometimes happens in MMA.
Miller, who provoked the brawl that broke out in the cage by confronting Jake Shields following his victory in the main event, said that as he was being hit by Shields’ entourage, “The freaking idiot Gus Johnson goes, ‘Gentlemen, this is national television.’ I’m like, ‘Ha ha, no s**t’.”
