UFC commentator and well-liked podcast host Joe Rogan want to see modifications to blended martial arts guidelines however admittedly has no say in what occurs within the struggle promotion or the game.
In an ideal world, Rogan want to eradicate the usage of the cage and do away with standing fighters up. He’d additionally like every spherical to start in the identical place that the earlier spherical ended.
“There’s many instances I want I used to be working the UFC. I’d change so many various issues,” Rogan stated on The Joe Rogan Expertise. “I’ve bought some whacky concepts. I don’ even suppose they need to struggle in a cage.Â
“I feel it is an pointless factor in preventing. Wish to push somebody in opposition to one thing, or to have the ability to rise up from one thing, I do not suppose it’s a necessity.”
Rogan defined what preventing atmosphere he’d favor and his reasoning behind it. His concepts centered round equity greater than the marketability. Â
“I feel they need to be in like a basketball court docket. Like a basketball court docket that is matted up. Have a giant area. Have a warning monitor. If you happen to go outdoors the warning monitor too many instances you possibly can lose factors,” Rogan stated. “So, when somebody takes you down, you need to truly rise up.”
Joe Rogan has radical concept about how rounds ought to start
Every spherical begins standing. That is been the usual and a part of the game’s presentation from the start. Rogan questioned why.
“I additionally suppose, on the finish of a spherical, like say for those who’ve bought a man mounted on the finish, you begin the subsequent spherical mounted on him,” stated Rogan. “As a result of why would you give him the benefit of getting up when he by no means bought up? He by no means bought up. It’s important to earn a rise up. It’s important to get up by your self.”
“No stand-ups, ever. Ever. No stand-ups except somebody commits a foul. If somebody commits and foul and also you need to stand then up and take some extent away, that is advantageous,” continued Rogan. “But when the man on the underside and he commits a foul, like if the man’s on the underside and he gouges somebody’s eyes on goal, take some extent method, put him again in the identical spot.”
“In any other case, like say for those who’re preventing a man like Alex Pereira, who isn’t taking anyone down. He will strike with you. Why would you let him again up once more and have the benefit of standing up once more? The start of the spherical, he begins standing up once more. Now you need to take him down once more.”Â
