AUTIN, TEXAS: Joe Rogan's criticism of authorities and intelligence agencies has left people divided, with some disputing his assertions. Sportscaster Stephen A Smith, however, remains skeptical, stating he had no idea about Rogan's claims but acknowledged his sway over millions of people.

The well-known sports TV personality hinted that he might not agree with most of what Rogan said, adding that he had not probed deeply enough to consider any conspiracy theories, but he did have a "news flash."

'Joe Rogan, y'all, he's the king'

"Joe Rogan, y'all, he's the king," Smith said, adding, "Brother has over 15 million subscribers to his show. Me been doing it for a long time and what I hope to accomplish in this position, owning and operating this show myself, is what he has already accomplished.”

Expressing his thoughts on Rogan's provocative remarks, Smith said, "I don't think Donald Trump is fit for office." He then revealed that he was dissatisfied with the fact that the former president was a leading candidate.

Smith further stated, “There’s a lot of people who believe exactly what Joe Rogan stated. And if you want to knock him [Donald Trump] off in a general election, you better listen to what the other side is.” Finally, he stated that Rogan was not alone, disagreeing with his remarks.

'I was upset at Stephen A Smith'

Rogan once slammed Smith for his post-UFC 246 comments, calling them unjust and unwarranted. Smith responded by saying he felt Donald "Cowboy" Cerrone left after the fight, but Rogan later explained why he disagreed with Smith's initial comment. Rogan said during an episode of 'The Joe Rogan Experience' podcast, “I was upset at Stephen A Smith and he made a video responding to me.”

Rogan further stated, “Listen, Stephen A. Smith, I guess I should respond, right? You’re a very entertaining guy, I like you a lot, I appreciate the props you gave me in that video, but you’re wrong. Cowboy got f****d up with those shoulders in the clinch, he had Conor’s arms tied up, and they’re in tight spaces. Conor dips low and slams the bone of the shoulder into the nose."

“At the beginning of the round, Conor’s a f*****g super explosive guy. Super explosive. Just all muscle, f*****g pulled tight at the beginning of the fight and just bang, bang! He got off good shots and Cowboy was confused. Stephen A Smith said that he felt like Cowboy quit. Cowboy did not quit. He got smashed,” Rogan added.
