"You're such a glutton for punishment"- Joe Rogan reacts to Steve-O trying to have UFC fighters give him cauliflower ear
Joe Rogan recently hosted Jackass star Steve-O on his podcast, The Joe Rogan Experience. Steve-O, who has made a living off of performing stunts, shared that he has made several attempts to have UFC fighters give him a cauliflower ear.
Steve-O, a giant UFC fan, discussed creating a helmet to protect his head, yet exposed his ear. UFC Hall of Famer Chuck Liddell was the first to participate, as he used a golf club to drive a golf ball off of Steve-O's ear. However, the attempt was unsuccessful.
After spending two days with Liddell, Steve-O enlisted another UFC Hall of Famer, Ronda Rousey, and her husband, former UFC heavyweight Travis Browne. The couple spent the day striking his ear until they believed he had a cauliflower ear. However, it eventually went away.
Steve-O next turned to Jorge Masvidal, who he shared used the 'BMF' belt to hold his ear against the door as he punched it. As with Rousey and Browne, Masvidal thought he had given Steve-O a cauliflower ear, which also did not last.
He eventually turned to UFC Hall of Famer Jon Jones, prompting Rogan to proclaim:
"You are such a glutton for punishment."
Steve-O stated:
"I had the who's who of the UFC Hall of Fame give their best shot and everybody said, 'Dude, we got it' and then it didn't work. Jon Jones blasted my ear into oblivion... He so upsettingly overdid it that my ear got blasted apart."

Joe Rogan shares his thoughts on how Israel Adesanya handled UFC 281 loss
Israel Adesanya was unable to defend his middleweight title at UFC 281, as he was defeated by Alex Pereira via a fifth-round TKO. During the latest episode of The Joe Rogan Experience, the UFC commentator shared his thoughts on how Adesanya has graciously handled defeat:
"The way he responded to that loss is better than anybody ever. The dude shows up to the press conference with a f**king fur coat like a king, dope a** watch on, and just says, 'He got me.' I mean he basically said, 'The hunter is now the hunted, I'm coming after him, I'm going to find a way to beat that dude, I was on my way to beating him, and he got me.' And he was honest about all of it."
While Adesanya shared that he felt he could have survived the fifth round, he noted that he doesn't blame referee Marc Goddard for stopping the fight. Additionally, Adesanya has remained in positive spirits despite the loss.
