Having seen just about all of them, Ultimate Fighting Championship color commentator Joe Rogan believes former two-time UFC heavyweight champion Cain Velasquez is the best heavyweight he’s ever witnessed.
Rogan’s first-hand observation of the UFC heavyweight division dates back to the very beginning; he got his start with the promotion as a backstage interviewer in 1997 at UFC 12, the very event where the first UFC heavyweight champion, Mark Coleman, was crowned. On a recent episode of “The Joe Rogan Experience” podcast, he discussed the current landscape in the UFC’s heavyweight division, including the optimal weight for fighters.
