Rogan: ‘Real danger’ of Silva breaking leg again
Joe Rogan: “Guys have come back in other sports, but those other sports are very different. They don’t involve purposefully trying to break your bones.”
Anderson Silva himself and UFC President Dana White have both said they expect Silva should be ready to fight again before the end of 2014. Although it’s a possibility, UFC commentator Joe Rogan believe’s there is a serious risk for Silva in doing so:
Speaking with SiriusXM’s The Opie & Anthony Show, Rogan isn’t putting high hopes on such a quick turnaround:
“Maybe. Dana’s a promoter,” says Rogan. “He wants [Silva] to fight by the end of the year. Anderson wants to fight, too, but there’s a real danger of that thing breaking again. You’ve got to make sure that it’s completely healed up before you check it again. [Opponents] are going to do the exact same thing. Anybody who fights Anderson is going to practice checking kicks like a mother f***er.
