Rogan explains p*ssed off Dana in cage with Rousey
Joe Rogan took the Underground to clear up Dana White ‘yelling at him’, which happened in the Octagon after his interview with Ronda Rousey.
Following Ronda Rousey’s dominant title defense at UFC 175, she had her stand post-fight interview in the Octagon with Joe Rogan. Near the end of the interview, Rogan said the production truck had a specific question for him to ask her, which is rare. He asked her if she would fight at UFC 176 next month if they needed her to. Somewhat surprised by the question, Rousey responded she had knee surgery scheduled and would have to talk to her coaches first.
Following the interview you can see UFC President Dana White apparently yelling at commentator Joe Rogan, but that was not that case, which Rogan himself cleared up on the Undeground today:

Just for the record Dana wasn’t pissed at me at all. I thought it was actually Dana’s idea when the producers interrupted me to get me to ask that question when I was trying to wrap up the interview.
It’s incredibly rare that the guys in the truck ever ask me to ask a specific question.

ABE FROMAN –
So….what exactly was he upset about….?
He was upset that someone overstepped their bounds and decided it would be a good idea to ask Ronda to fight again in a month.
Decisions like that always come from Dana and Lorenzo, so when a producer thought it would be a good idea to ask Ronda that before consulting them he was really pissed off.
