As a famous saying goes the Internet is unforgiving and that’s the case with the former champion. As he was KO’d brutally by Edwards memes of his KO started to go viral on the internet. Memes of Rogan also started popping up on the internet. As the UFC commentator has been previously trolled brutally for his post-fight octagon interview.
Usually, high-profile celebrities do not like the memes on the internet. Although the former champion and the podcaster didn’t seem even a bit offended by the memes. Usman and Rogan even stated that some of the memes were pure genius.
While discussing his loss the Nigerian touched on the subject of people trolling him on the internet for his loss, “People would screen grab that and make a fake page with that as the avatar. For them to take time out of their day, I’m like ‘s**t I’m special. They think that it bothers me, but it’s funny to me, it made me laugh.”
Rogan chimed in, “Did you see the photo of me interviewing you in the middle of the head kick? That was hilarious.” The former champion laughingly replied, “I almost posted that yesterday! I’m gonna post it. Joe’s gotta get that interview.”
