UFC Commentator Joe Rogan Rips Shamrock vs Slice MMA Fight, Says it Looked Fake As F**k, Accuses the Bout of Being a “Performance”

joe roganAs noted, Ken Shamrock vs Kimbo Slice took place at Bellator 138, and according to MMAFighting.com UFC color-commentator Joe Rogan made some scathing comments about the match on his podcast over the weekend. Below are some of the things Rogan had to say about the fight:

“That fight looked fake as f**k. There’s a couple things I don’t like about that fight. I don’t like that clinch. That long clinch that they had when they were mouth to ear. They were mouth to each other’s ears for a long f***ing time.”

“When Ken did take [Slice] down he never hit him once. How bout that? He never hit him. He had him down. He had him flattened out. He’s not blasting him with punches. He’s got him flattened out and he’s not hitting him. That doesn’t make any sense.

“To me, the whole thing … the entrance looked so suspect because he was shaking everybody’s hand. It didn’t look like he was about to go to a fight. It looked like he was about to go put on a performance. But they might have told them that this is the way to generate interest in this fight. To hype it up. All the fake bad blood.”

“The other thing that got me was the way Kimbo stopped Shamrock,” said Rogan. “That was real as f**k. I mean he definitely cracked him. So maybe they made an agreement and Kimbo said, ‘I’m gonna punch this motherf***er anyway.’”

“[Shamrock] never went behind the head,” Rogan said of the choke attempt. “He choked [Slice] but he had it like on top of the head in some sort of weird way. It was disturbing to me how easy Kimbo shook Ken off his back. There was a lot of s**t I didn’t like about it.”
