It isn’t uncommon to catch MMA “fans” chucking verbal barbs in Joe Rogan’s direction. He’s an animated dude who holds a propensity for repeating the same phrases time and again, which wears thin on the nerves of many.
But those “Roganisms,” as we’ll call them, are damn entertaining, and his energetic approach to commentating is infectious.
The man has an uncanny ability to invoke excitement in home viewers.
I personally love the charisma that Rogan brings to the broadcast. His passion isn’t transparent. It’s obviously heartfelt, and that’s a strength that separates him from your typical analyst. This dude genuinely loves mixed martial arts.
It’s not just detectable—it absolutely oozes from his every pore. You can practically see the man sweating (not necessarily a pretty thought) exhilaration as he calls fights.
A colorful personality should be a requirement for anyone calling a fight, as it keeps home-based onlookers fully engaged in the action. Joe’s got that magnetism, and whether you like the man or loathe him, he’s an integral piece of the UFC machine. He’s a part of the package, at this point fully ingrained, and those goofy Roganisms are a vital piece of the compendium.
