The executive director of the Nevada State Athletic Commission, Keith Kizer has today took aim at UFC color commentator, Joe Rogan, responding to the comics outburst during this past weekend’s “Ultimate Fighter” season twelve finale, saying he needs to get his facts straight before laying blame.
Kizer, speaking via MMAFA.tv, said:
“If Joe Rogan wants to get on the air and call people names, that’s his business. I’m not going waste my time responding to that. They always say that ‘the UFC has nothing to do with judging.’ Well guess what, they’ve got a big fight coming up in Canada called Koscheck vs. Georges St. Pierre – the UFC and Marc Ratner are flying Tony Weeks up there as a judge. C’mon, Joe. How about some honesty? They’ve taken 90% of our officials overseas with them, as they should. That’s not a knock on Dana [White] and Marc [Ratner]; they know what they’re doing.”
