I like Joe Rogan but calling him a world class comedian and martial artist is not right. He doesn't compete in BJJ and he always was a middling comedian.

- Happos 4y agoYou’re not wrong, but Georges St-Pierre says Joe has the best turning side kick he has ever seen, and that’s gotta count for something.
- motohagiography 4y agoIndeed, and they hand out Netflix specials to anyone who can fog a mirror these days so it's probably not a useful measure... Maybe I should just do one.
- Happos 4y agoIndeed. Just remember to keep your knee high - that’s where the power comes from.
- purpleblue 4y agoHe sold out Madison Square Gardens and headlines along with Dave Chappelle. He's not one of the top comedians of all time in my opinion (Dave Chappelle, Chris Rock Louis CK, Bill Burr), but he is wildly successful for a comedian. He was a state champion in Tae Kwon Do when he was younger and is a black belt in BJJ. He's very experienced in multiple types of martial arts. He doesn't compete because he's 54 years old but he still trains every day.
- ethbr0 4y ago> top comedians of all time in my opinion (Dave Chappelle, Chris Rock Louis CK, Bill Burr) Statistically, "of all time" should probably include some dead people...
- purpleblue 4y agoI said it was my opinion. Feel free to disagree with our own opinions.
- greenhearth 4y agoYour GOAT comedians list needs some work.
- freejazz 4y agoHave you watched his standup?
- purpleblue 4y agoYes. He's okay. I've seen worse. I've seen better. I would consider him a second tier comic but he is indisputably very successful.
