Joe Rogan won’t call UFC 315

[Wild]

Joe Rogan doesn’t travel internationally to call fights for the UFC and that apparently even extends to a potential trip to Canada.

On May 10, UFC 315 lands in Montreal for a card headlined by welterweight champion Belal Muhammad defend his belt for the first time when he faces Jack Della Maddalena. The co-main event features Valentina Shevchenko putting her flyweight title up for grabs against top contender Manon Fiorot but the broadcast booth won’t feature Rogan on color commentary.

“I won’t be there,” Rogan said during his UFC London Fight Companion podcast. “I don’t go to Canada anymore. I don’t. I’d rather go to Russia.”

While it’s not a total surprise considering Rogan also didn’t travel to Canada for UFC 297, which took place in Toronto back in January 2024, it’s the first time the comedian and podcast magnate expressed his disdain about traveling to the United States’ neighbor to the north.

I don't blame him, one bit. I wouldn't want to travel to that dystopian hellscape, right now, either.

 

[jimmy boogaloo]

bwahahaha the headline from mmafighting made it seem like he didn't wanna waste his time travelling to enthusiastically call the B-lol fight.

I thought, fair enough

Why do they always make a big deal out of Rogan not calling international events? It's been that way for probably a decade now.

I'll never travel to Canada again, unless I'm escaping a future Canada-ized USA to the Yukon territory to live amongst actual wolves.

When's the last time you were in Canada?

Rate this card out of 10


For me it's a 3/10 at best

Three girl fights with 2 of them on the main card? Trump must have told Dana to do that.

Jose Also Vs Ariel Helwani Zahabbi.
I wished they put some respect in Jose's name and gave him a more well known fighter.

If dom cruz wasn't injured that would have been a great fight.
Or if they brought Megan Olivia's Cuck back for a 135 fight again Aldo that would be fun, it's fun seeing him get knocked out

 

[Robbie Hart]

It’s not a card anyone will pay for
Joe can’t even give it any hype

2 WMMA fights on the main card? I wouldn't travel down the street to call this one.

This card is terrible.

I'm IN Canada and I don't want it to be here.

3 fights in the first 4
may as well call it a WMMA event
