Joe Rogan was one of the people to give their take on Conor McGregor wanting to fight Kamaru Usman. Former UFC fighter Chael Sonnen had a very different opinion than Rogan and was not afraid to push back.
Chael Sonnen praised Conor McGregor for calling out the UFC welterweight champion. Joe Rogan was on the opposite end of the spectrum and Sonnen was not having it, in a video uploaded to his YouTube channel.
“Joe Rogan said, and I quote “be careful what you ask for because you just might get it”. Why? Why? Joe went on to answer his question and talked about how good Usman is, and how he’s the best to do it right now, and his size. How Conor used to be a 145-pounder, and all these are very valid, we’re all stating the obvious here. I have the same question, why? Why should Conor be careful? What is that Kamaru brings to the octagon that Conor hasn’t seen?”
Sonnen continued, “Why should anyone be careful when what they’re asking for is an opportunity to take on the baddest man in the world? How would that not be praised? Why would that be cautioned?”
It's an interesting situation and many like Joe Rogan seem to disagree with Conor McGregor challenging Kamaru Usman for the UFC welterweight title. Chael Sonnen put the promoter hat on and saw the different side of the callout and praised the Irishman for his bold challenge. There is currently no word on when the former UFC champion will return to the cage.
