UFC commentator and widespread podcast host Joe Rogan wish to see modifications to combined martial arts guidelines however admittedly has no say in what occurs within the struggle promotion or the game.
In an ideal world, Rogan wish to remove using 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 might change so many various issues,” Rogan stated on The Joe Rogan Expertise. “I’ve received some whacky concepts. I don’ even assume they need to struggle in a cage.
“I feel it is an pointless aspect in preventing. Wish to push somebody towards one thing, or to have the ability to stand up from one thing, I do not assume it is necessary.”
Rogan defined what preventing setting he’d want and his reasoning behind it. His concepts centered round equity greater than the marketability.
“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.

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 assume, on the finish of a spherical, like say in case you’ve received a man mounted on the finish, you begin the following 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 received up? He by no means received up. You must earn a stand up. You must arise by your self.”
“No stand-ups, ever. Ever. No stand-ups until somebody commits a foul. If somebody commits and foul and also you wish to stand then up and take a degree away, that is wonderful,” 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 function, take a degree means, put him again in the identical spot.”
“In any other case, like say in case you’re preventing a man like Alex Pereira, who isn’t taking anyone down. He’ll 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 it’s a must to take him down once more.”
