We didn’t think it was possible, but Joe Rogan won the UFC 187 weigh ins

Never go full Rogan

Ben Kiely

Joe Rogan stole the show at the UFC 187 weigh ins.

It’s widely accepted that the former Fear Factor host has kept his job at the UFC because of his penchant for pulling extremely animated facial expressions. At the weigh ins for UFC 187, he showed the world yet again exactly why he’s earning a big slice of that sweet, sweet Zuffa cake.

At one point, middleweight champion Chris Weidman accused his opponent Vitor Belfort of cheating and Rogan lost the plot altogether.

This will be the Brazilian’s first fight back after coming off testosterone replacement therapy (TRT), which has been banned by the Nevada State Athletic commission. However, Weidman reckons that Belfort’s testosterone levels are still suspiciously high.

“I left him alone with this whole drug-test thing, but then we just found out during camp he had a 1200 testosterone score. I’m 10 years younger than him and he’s got a way higher testosterone level. This guy is still cheating. I’m gonna make him pay for it tomorrow night.”

Weidman’s comments clearly caught Rogan off guard judging by his wide-eyed look of horror that washed over his face.

Before that, the UFC colour commentator pulled off perhaps his best face when women’s strawweight fighter Nina Ansaroff was getting ready to hit the scales.
