Joe Rogan Surprised by Aljamain Sterling's Pre-Fight Drinking Habits

In a recent episode of Joe Rogan's podcast, Aljamain Sterling disclosed his practice of consuming alcohol while in fight camp, surprising Rogan. The former UFC bantamweight champion admitted to drinking the night before fights, stating he typically has one or two glasses, and humorously noted that three would be excessive.

During their nearly three-hour conversation, Rogan expressed disbelief at Sterling's habits and questioned the potential effects on his performance. Sterling, however, maintained that if he were to lose due to his drinking, it would indicate he was not meant to win. The discussion shifted as Rogan acknowledged he might not change Sterling's mind about his drinking, leading to a broader conversation about personal happiness.

Rogan has not provided commentary for a fight since July 11, when he was sidelined during Conor McGregor's match against Max Holloway. He is set to return to commentary for the upcoming UFC 330 event featuring Islam Makhachev and Ian Machado Garry.
