Rogan alleges corruption, not just incompetence, in judging and stoppage of Usyk fight
Joe Rogan Experience
JRE MMA Show #183 with Rico Verhoeven
"There's no way they would stop that fight. No way. Look, it's either incompetence or corruption. And I tend to think corruption."
Joe Rogan argues the late stoppage in Oleksandr Usyk’s fight against Rico Verhoeven would not have been called the same way if the roles were reversed. He says he suspects corruption — specifically, decision-making influenced by the commercial interests around Usyk — rather than mere officiating incompetence.
