Joe Rogan on Colby Covington & Tyron Woodley

But he does his campsite in Milwaukee with we go to Duke Rufus's. What do you think about him fighting Usman? I like Usman. It's a great fight. Yeah, I've always liked Usman. Usman, I like him as a fighter. Sure. Yeah. I don't know him as a person, but as a fighter, he's fucking terrifying. Yeah, he's he's super smart. Yeah. He's really good. He's very versatile. He can do everything. He can do everything. Yeah. So that's why I think it's more of a challenge than Colby. Yeah. Because Usman brings more to the table. Striking wise, power wise, power. And the Colby thing, though, was in terms of like a marketing fight, like I felt like that was a very good fight. Marketing wise. Yeah, I think they could have had that fight stand alone. Yeah. You know, I don't wonder why they didn't do that. They I think, but you know, I don't think they could have had that fight stand alone. They didn't need John Jones and Anthony Smith. I think Colby talks a lot of shit. I think he doesn't just talk shit when the cameras are on. I think talk shit all the time. You know, like, you know, like we had Colby in camp sometimes. And like, I remember when he first started fighting and we was always cordial. But now, you know, I'm saying, like, I don't even talk to him. He goes his way in a gym. We pass each other. Why is that? Just as awkward. Yeah. You know, it's like he's talking about my homeboy. Right. You know, he's dogging him out, you know. And but you also know that he's got to do that. Yeah, I do. Yeah. You get the fight. But listen, I'll say this, too. Like, even though I know that I'm still like happy for him. I'm happy that he was able to get the success he's gotten, whether it was from talking or not. He still won the fights. He still beat those on. Yeah. And he beat those on just convincingly. Yeah. He beat my he beat those. So he still won. Yeah. He talked a lot and I'm happy for him. But but I was just hoping that, you know, time faced music. Yeah. You deserve this ass woman. Well, I think the UFC offered him Usman. And I think he said no. I think he said he wants to fight Tyron. And they're like, you're not in any position to decide. And even though they had promised him a shot at the title before Ben Askren said, did you believe Dana White? Askren tweeted to him. And he said, I love that. He's the most ruthless when it comes to Twitter. Yeah, he's the most ruthless. He's so honest. And it's hilarious to check you check under your skirt. Yeah. Ben will get you. Ah, it's a great fight, though. Usman and Tyron, I'm not mad at the fight. I do kind of wish that Colby was getting the shot because I want to see that fight. I don't know if I will ever see that fight like. Tyron's mad. He doesn't like Colby. Yes, he doesn't like him. Yeah. And angry Tyron is a scary human being. Yeah. He might be the fastest, hardest hitting 170 pounder that's ever lived. Yeah. Who the fuck is faster than Tyron? Who the fuck hits harder? You look at his fights with Wonderboy. Wonderboy recognizes one of the greatest strikers in the sport ever. The only person who got hurt in those fights was Wonderboy. The same thing with Darren Till. Darren Till's a motherfucker on the feet. Tyron, shut that shit up quick. Blam. One big right hand drops him, beats the fuck out of him, chokes the shit out of him. Well, here's the thing, man, is it you know it's coming to. Yep. Like every like you just can't prepare for it. Yeah, it's so fast. Yeah, you know, it's coming. You're like, here it comes. Here it comes. Oh, there it is. Wow. Well, you got to engage. And the thing about Tyron, too, is he's intelligent and patient. Yeah. And he'll just he'll just hang around on the outside. He'll hang around the outside. Come on. I know you want to do this. Make a mistake. Yeah, make a mistake. Make a mistake. The Wonderboy fights like people are saying all those fights are boring. You have to fight Wonderboy that way. How else do you fight him? There's not another way to fight him. There's no other way you're going to lose. Yeah, this is the way to fight him. You have to fight that way. If you don't fight that way, you get fucked up. If you fight the way, you know, fucking Jake Allenberger. Yeah. Yeah. You get wheel kicked in the head. Yeah. Yeah. You fight the way Hendrix fought him. You get fucked up. You get fucked up. Yeah. You've got to fight that way. You've got to stay on the outside. You can't give into those feints. And he's going to hit you with them little pitty pats and tips and taps, because he's he's trying to tag you and touch you before the big ones come. Yeah. And he's he's he's elusive and he's clever and he's a lot quicker than you think. He also bends at the waist like a goddamn cobra. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. He's very good at bending at the waist and then coming back with punches. Yeah. He's a dangerous fighter. And Woodley fought him the perfect way and he did it twice. Yeah. And people are like, Oh, that's boring. That's Wonderboy. That's what it is. I know. Like, would you be exciting? You get fucked up or you fight in a cautious, intelligent way. And the fans boo. See, I don't see Joe. I got you all wrong. How so? I thought you hated Tyra. Why would I hate Tyra? I don't know. You know what I'm saying? Because like everybody kind of always had. Tyron thinks everybody hates Tyra. Yeah, maybe we talk now. We never do. Now we listen to the shit I've talked about. Tyron, it's all positive. We've never actually talked about it, but but it just seems like everybody wants to jump on him no matter what. No. Yeah. Not me. No, I think he's if he's not the greatest welterweight of all time, he's in the running.
