Chael Sonnen recently settled the debate on whether he or Joe Rogan is the biggest voice in MMA. The American made an ostentatious claim stating that he's the biggest voice in MMA while discussing why the fight between Jiri Prochazka and Glover Teixeira fell apart.
Sonnen and Rogan often contradict each other's vantage points when it comes to fighting. Most recently, the former now-retired fighter opposed Rogan's claims that Alex Pereira being a heavyset middleweight is "sanctioned cheating."
Speaking on his YouTube channel, Sonnen hailed himself as the most reputable and credible source in the sport today:

"I'm not only audited. I'm publicly audited. I'm not one of the biggest voices in the sport, I'm the biggest. Please don't tell me Joe Rogan is bigger. Joe Rogan has 25 topics and I have one."
Sonnen further added that unlike Rogan, who opines on a wide range of themes, he only speaks about fighting for the majority part:
"I do not give a d**n who's on the moon. When I tell you I have my thumb on the pulse of the sport at all times to an exact increment, it does not come with exaggeration. It's audited, but it's publicly audited."

Earlier last week, Sonnen chastised Rogan's claims that weight cycling has a subsequent advantage on the athlete’s ability to perform in competition. 'The American Gangster' added that these claims lack substantial evidence.
Joe Rogan sheds light on why Dana White's Power Slap league is not his "cup of tea"

The commercial for White's Power Slap League aired during the broadcast of UFC 280.The slap-fighting promotion will be a licensed athletic competition in Nevada.
In a recent episode of The Joe Rogan Experience with No.1-ranked bantamweight contender Sean O'Malley, the world-renowned podcaster stated that he is not the biggest fan of slap-fighting. He further added that intriguing matchups under the mixed martial arts construct fascinate him:
"I love Dana, and I would be a hypocrite if I said I wouldn't watch this, because I will watch it. But it's not my cup of tea. What I like is problem-solving, I like puzzles. What I like is Sean O'Malley and Petr Yan. This f***ing Russian assassin is rushing the gates and you're kicking and moving away."
