Daniel Cormier and Joe Rogan were at the broadcast booth during UFC 216 when they noticed a bump on Kevin Lee’s left chest. Upon seeing it, Rogan called it out, speculating that it could be staph infection.
Lee later admitted during the post-fight interview that it was indeed a case of staph infection. But according to Cormier, he was advised by someone in the UFC not to mention it during the broadcast.
“So we’re on air, right, and Rogan goes ‘is that staph?’” Cormier said during a recent episode of the Talk & Talker podcast.
