Rogan's iconic phrases such as 'Jamie, pull that up' and 'a buddy of mine' have also transformed him into an internet meme.

The 52-year-old uses his show to discuss UFC among other topics and recently came up with an idea that could change the fight game.

Rogan believes anyone that judges a current MMA contest should be 'fired' and replaced with nine ex-fighters to score UFC bouts.

Joe Rogan Experience

"I think the system sucks," he said on The Joe Rogan Experience.

"The 10-point must system. It's boxing's system, it's not our system.

"The judges should at least have some martial arts experience, and I know there's a bunch of them that have never even f*****g trained, they just took some courses.

"It's horrible and they don't do anything about it.

"There's people that have put in bad decision after bad decision and then you see them still being listed as judges, and you're like, 'This is crazy.'

"They need to fire everyone. You know what they need to do? They should hire ex-fighters.

"It's like passing a written test, but never having driven a car. We should have more than three judges.

"Nine would be a good number because nine would be a tie-breaker if you had like, four one way, four the other way. I feel like three is ridiculous.

"Why do you only have three? You know the judges suck already, so why do you only have three people that suck?"
