Conor McGregor seemed to be unhappy with Joe Rogan’s comment on former UFC champion Chris Weidman

AUSTIN, TEXAS: The Irish MMA fighter Conor McGregor was unhappy with Joe Rogan’s comment on former UFC champion Chris Weidman who returned to the octagon after two long years post recovering from injury.

He fought Brad Tavares in his return match, which was part of UFC 292's prelim card. Rogan was concerned that Weidman might damage his right leg again as he approached the Octagon.

Weidman's leg break in his most recent bout with Uriah Hall appeared to be the end of his professional career at the time.

Rogan exclaimed "I will cry," and said that he would be quite unhappy if the middleweight veteran's leg were shattered during his comeback bout.

McGregor’s witty comment to Rogan

Conor McGregor prepared his usual fight night tweets and responded to Rogan saying, “Joe, the bar inside the leg CANNOT snap.”

After the surgery, the Irishman implied that Weidman's leg would be kept together by an iron rod and plates and that it would not break.

He further tweeted, “Two surgeries Chris had as well, the bone wasn’t joining back. Yous have no idea. The usual.”

While McGregor said that MMA fans were unaware of the seriousness of a leg injury, particularly if you intend to fight again soon after.

He undoubtedly understands how it is because he went through the same experience after breaking his own leg at UFC 264 versus Dustin Poirier.

This is not the first time that McGregor has mocked the UFC commentator; he previously insulted Rogan when the latter made a remark about his suspected use of performance-enhancing drugs.

Joe Rogan was unimpressed with judges at UFC 292

Rising bantamweight contenders Mario Bautista and Da'Mon Blackshear squared up against one other for three rounds at UFC 292.

Both competitors had a chance to establish their reputations and differentiate themselves from the competition because the bantamweight championship was being contested in the main event.

While Bautista, a teammate of Sean O'Malley, completed the task. Joe Rogan and Daniel Cormier, two commentators, weren't really impressed.

They didn't do it because they didn't like Bautista's performance. It was more related to the judges' choice, though.

Da'Mon Blackshear had his moments during the battle, especially in the beginning, even if he was unable to finish it forcefully. But it was Bautista who gradually seized control and finished the job.

Sal D'amato and Chris Lee both gave the contest a 28-29 rating, although Steve Rita gave it a 27-30. Bruce Buffer announced the choice, and Joe Rogan immediately called it out live during the PPV show.

He disagreed that Bautista's 30-27 score accurately depicted the fight. Even Daniel Cormier, a former UFC double champion, who was his co-commentator, agreed wholeheartedly with Rogan.

Joe Rogan surprised by Ian Garry’s foul play

When Ian Garry competed against welterweight stalwart Neil Magny at UFC 292, it was his hardest test to yet.

Garry controlled the night despite Magny being his ticket to the Top 10. Nevertheless, not everyone was blown away by the Irishman's performance.

Garry and Magny exchanged a lot of insults before the battle. Ian was generally dissatisfied with Magny's remarks made on media day.

It turned out that Garry appeared to be harboring resentment when he faced "The Haitian Sensation" at UFC 292. Ian turned Magny into a meal by chopping him up with some powerful leg kicks.

Garry finally won a convincing unanimous verdict (30-26, 30-26, 30-24) as a result. 'The Future' came close to winning the night, but fell short.

Joe Rogan, the color commentator, was less than pleased when Garry pushed Magny into the fence while leaving his arm outside the Octagon.

Notably, in Round 1, official Keith Peterson forewarned the 25-year-old of the same. Ian made an attempt to persuade the court that his arm was in fact raised.

Fighters are not permitted to grab onto anything or extend their arm outside of the Octagon when they are up against the cage, per the regulations. They get an unfair edge over their rival by doing so in the situation.

Referee Keith Peterson probably informed Garry about this after all.

While some people would assume that it was purposeful, it might just as well have been a complete accident. Daniel Cormier, a pundit, thinks Ian's coaches ought to address the situation anyway.
