Joe Rogan has been a part of the UFC promotion since UFC 12, and he knows a thing or two about maintaining a great physique. During his time with the UFC, many fighters with impressive physiques have fought. However, he was left in awe as he saw Brock Lesnar having crazy NFL combine stats. Rogan’s admiration for Lesnar’s physique did not go unnoticed by fans. Moreover, they are eager to hear what he has to say about it.

During a conversation with Brendan Schaub, Joe Rogan reveals how superior genetics played a significant role in Brock Lesnar’s incredible physical ability. Rogan went on to describe Lesnar as a “freak of nature” due to his impressive athletic feats.

Despite his admiration for Brock Lesnar, Joe Rogan also believes that Lesnar has used or is using performance-enhancing drugs (PEDs).

Additionally, Rogan thinks that if Lesnar had a good MMA coach before entering the UFC, he could have become one of the GOATS. With Rogan’s experience and expertise in the world of UFC, his opinions on the matter carry considerable weight among fans and analysts alike.

Joe Rogan in awe of Brock Lesnar

Brock Lesnar’s NFL combine stats are incredibly impressive. He stands at 6’3″ and weighs 283 lbs, with a 40-yard dash time of 4.7 seconds. He can also jump 35 inches vertically and jump 10 feet in the standing long jump. Furthermore, he can bench press 225 lbs for 30 reps, making him an all-around remarkable athlete.

Joe Rogan said, “Jesus fu*king Christ. A running back living in the body of a defensive end.

“He is a freak.” He further added

Lesnar’s achievements in the UFC are equally impressive. In just his second fight, he faced Frank Mir, and in his fourth fight, he beat Randy Couture. This feat is an impressive accomplishment, given that he was still relatively new to the sport.

Brock Lesnar’s ability to transition into the sport of MMA and perform at such a high level is a testament to his natural athleticism and ability to learn new skills.

Lesnar does not like getting hit on the face

During a conversation with Brendan Schaub, Joe Rogan discussed Brock Lesnar’s aversion to getting hit. Schaub recounted a story about Pat Berry sparring with Lesnar, highlighting Lesnar’s reluctance to get hit.

He said,

He fu*king hit’s Brock and I guess Brock freaks the fuck out. And his coaches are like what the fu*k are you doing?

Don’t fucking hit Brock in the face.” He further added.

In a similar vein, Schaub revealed that Lesnar is particularly averse to getting hit on his face. During a sparring session, Berry hit Lesnar in the face, prompting his coaches to ask him what he was doing.
