At a recent JRE MMA event, Rampage Jackson apologized to Joe Rogan. He clarified that his anger was really directed at the fans, not the bugs. “You didn’t hurt my feelings. It wasn’t anything you said. I’ll make that clear now. It wasn’t anything you said, it’s the f***ing fans. When you say that , they all come.” me on my social media,” Jackson explained.
Known for providing insight with a deep MMA background, Rogan seemed to understand Rampage Jackson’s frustration. The two talked about the impact of social media on players and how fan reactions can sometimes exacerbate misunderstandings. Joe Rogan acknowledged that his comments have been constructive, not harmful.
Now that the dust has settled, there seems to be no animosity between Joe Rogan and Rampage Jackson. But whether this peace will last remains to be seen. Their conversation sheds light on the pressure on fighters from the media and fans and highlights the importance of open communication and mutual respect.

Dana White adds Fight to the UFC Denver card
The UFC’s return to Denver, Colorado is shaping up to be an exciting event. In the main, former two-time strawweight champion Rose Namajunas and undefeated Tracy Cortez. But UFC president Dana White faced obstacles with several fights being canceled that shook the UFC at the source.
White quickly changed the schedule to include a welterweight fight in order to remedy this. The first bout on the fight night card in Denver will pit Evan Elder against Darius Flowers. While Elder hopes to extend his winning run, Flowers is still looking for his first UFC victory. This addition should increase the anticipation for the next event.
