Joe Rogan Says Paramount+ Should “Delete” Rose Namajunas vs. Carla Esparza 2

Rogan ripped Namajunas–Esparza 2, joking, “I hope that fight’s not even in the Paramount archive. Delete that,” while commentating Namajunas vs. Silva at UFC 324. He argued that the first meeting in 2014 (Esparza won) was so dull it never deserved a rematch. The sequel still happened for the UFC strawweight title in 2022, with Namajunas losing a split decision.
