John Kavanagh calls out Joe Rogan for Conor McGregor interview after injury JRE Clips \/ Instagram: @thenotoriousmmaConor McGregor\u2019s coach John Kavanagh hit out at Joe Rogan for interviewing the fighter after his shocking ankle injury. The trainer explained why he was \u201cmiffed\u201d at the podcast host for talking to the Irish star only moments after his loss to Dustin Poirier at UFC 264. The trilogy fight between Conor McGregor and Dustin Poirier came to an abrupt end after McGregor\u2019s ankle broke in a freak accident. In a viral moment, UFC commentator Joe Rogan sat down next to the injured Irishman and interviewed him after he lost the July 10 contest. While many fans loved the lengths the JRE Podcast creator was willing to go to talk to the former champion, the 32-year-old star\u2019s coach was not too thrilled about it. In a lengthy interview, John Kavanagh criticized the comedian for \u201cshoving\u201d a microphone in the face of a competitor who needed medical attention. John Kavanagh calls out Joe Rogan for Conor McGregor interview In an interview with UFC reporter Laura Sanko, Kavanaugh opened up about his take on Joe Rogan interviewing McGregor after the fighter broke his ankle. \u201cI have my opinions on that. Like his foot is literally hanging down. It\u2019s a clean fracture of the fibula and tibia. It went straight through. His foot is hanging down. You can only imagine the rush of hormones and the pain, it was on fire,\u201d he said. The head coach then criticized Rogan for interviewing him while he was severely injured. \u201cAnd then someone sits down and sticks a microphone under your face like \u201cHow are you feeling right now?\u201d \u2026It\u2019s like, guys, come on! Come on. Let\u2019s get backstage and let\u2019s get a proper assessment by a doctor, let\u2019s get an x-ray.\u201d Kavanagh followed up stating that he was not happy with the Joe Rogan Experience host for his behavior. \u201cLet\u2019s say I was pretty miffed at that idea of shoving a microphone in someone\u2019s face at that stage. Let\u2019s gather ourselves and let\u2019s\u2026 Anyways look, what\u2019s happened has happened.\u201d Although Conor\u2019s head coach was not a fan of the viral interview, many viewers came to the defense of Rogan. Fans pointed out that McGregor had been yelling while the podcast host was interviewing winner Dustin Poirier \u201cConor yelled waaaaay before Joe came next to him,\u201d one user wrote. Another exclaimed, \u201cHe literally asked for a chance to talk, stop making excuses for ya boi.\u201d It should be pointed out that some were also highly critical of Conor\u2019s continued attacks on Dustin Poirier\u2019s wife after the match. So Kavanaugh\u2019s remarks could also be explaining why fighters shouldn\u2019t be interviewed in such an agitated state. Regardless of how you feel about the post-fight interview, UFC 264 will certainly go down as memorable. In an update on July 11, the Irish star revealed that he had successfully had surgery and felt \u201ctremendous.\u201d Only time will tell if the 32-year-old will get back into the Octagon and finish his long-running rivalry. UFC owner Dana White seems up to it and even stated that the fight was \u201cnot over\u201d with how it concluded.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
