Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) Heavyweights beware!<\/p>\n
It was that explosive knockout that caught Rogan\u2019s attention and left him stunned.<\/p>\n
\u201dThe heavyweight division is so devoid of talent,\u201d Rogan said recently on his podcast. \u201cGable Steveson is the f\u2014king guy. That\u2019s the guy. He\u2019s not even in the UFC yet. Olympic gold medalist, f\u2014king freak athlete, 250 pounds, moves like a cat. He\u2019s the guy.\u201d<\/p>\n
Rogan said he even sent a message to UFC CEO Dana White.<\/p>\n
\u201cI sent a text message to Dana White. I sent him a video of Gable\u2019s last fight. I said, \u2018Everyone\u2019s f\u2014ked when this guy comes out.\u2019 He KO\u2019ed this guy with a left hand and then took him down as he was knocked out. It\u2019s f\u2014king crazy. The speed that this guy has. First of all, he has really good striking already, and he\u2019s only been striking for like a f\u2014king year. Everyone\u2019s f\u2014ked,\u201d Rogan concluded. \u201cThat kind of speed is nuts for a heavyweight.\u201d<\/p>\n
With the Heavyweight division widely considered the weakest it has been in over a decade, there\u2019s a real chance Steveson enters the UFC and bulldozes his way through the rankings purely on the strength of his Olympic-caliber wrestling and rare athleticism.<\/p>\n
But when is the inevitable UFC debut coming?<\/p>\n
Until then, feel sorry for any regional Heavyweight who signs on the dotted line to face him.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) Heavyweights beware!
