Joe Rogan blamed for Ilia Topuria and Paddy Pimblett face off at UFC 317 that left Dana White seething

Joe Rogan was blamed for the spontaneous face between Ilia Topuria and Paddy Pimblett after the UFC 317 Main Event.

Last Saturday, Ilia Topuria became the new UFC light weight champion after separating Charles Oliveira from consciousness in the first round of the UFC 317 Main Event.

And immediately after the fight, the newly crowned champion stood opposite his potential opponent when Paddy Pimblett was called in the Octagon and the two had a spontaneous face.

Despite the enormous size of that potential fight, UFC boss Dana White had been left behind and claimed that the face should not have happened.

Joe Rogan blamed the face between Topuria and Pimblett

Earlier in the night, UFC Vliegweig champion Alexandre Pantoja faced his next challenger Joshua Van, who took a huge victory over Brandon Royval at the UFC 317 Undercard.

However, that face was prior to the balance by Dana White and Hunter Campbell, because they already stated that the winner of Van VS Royval would receive the next title shot.

And now only a few days away from the UFC 317 Main Event, UFC commentator Joe Rogan has been accused of the face of lightweight competition Arman Tsarukyan.

It was Rogan who called on the security team to allow 'The Baddy' to jump over the barriers and to enter the cage after being shown by the broadcast on the big screen.

“It was Joe Rogan's fault,” Tsarukyan told Daniel Cormier during an interview.

“Oh, Joe Rogan called him in?” Cormier replied.

“Yes, Joe Rogan called him in, it was Joe Rogan's fault and he shouldn't even mention his name as:” Take him to the octhoek. ” He called Paddy to come to the Octagon.

“I was surprised, but when Dana said it shouldn't have happened, I thought, okay, hopefully he won't fight for the title … I was upset and said:” This is not a sport, this is WWE. “

Arman Tsarukyan will not fight against Ilia Topuria for the title Next

Despite the fact that 'Ahalkalakets' is hopeful that the Brit will not fight for the title, according to White, he will not fight for the next title either.

Although the Armenian weighed like the backup of the UFC 317, White claimed that this was only a 'step in the right direction'.

If Tsarukyan or Pimblett did not subsequently, however, do not leave the 'El Matador' with many options to be confronted in his first lightweight defending defense.
