Joe Rogan was not providing color commentator at UFC 271 here in Houston, however on several occasions the crowd broke into “free Joe Rogan” chants.
UFC President Dana White said reports that the UFC pulled Rogan from the broadcast was “total bullsh-t.”
He says "Joe Rogan didn't work tonight. Joe Rogan could have worked tonight."
He adds, "I don’t know what Joe Rogan had to do, you guys will have to ask Joe Rogan. There was no 'Joe couldn’t work' or anything like that. I know that came out and it is total bullsh-t."
White added that Rogan will be welcomed back.
