Last night, Daniel Cormier got knocked out by Jon Jones after Jones landed a nasty head kick in the third round of their fight at UFC 214. After the fight, UFC announcer Joe Rogan interviewed a concussed Cormier who was extremely emotional after being stopped for the first time in his career.

A day later, Rogan realized his mistake in interviewing Cormier while he was in a fragile state of mind and apologized to him for it on Twitter.
My apologies to @dc_mma and to all of you upset by my interviewing him after the fight. In all honestly I was kind of in shock.

I don't think I realized what I was doing until I actually had a mic in front of him. I've said I don't want to interview KO'ed fighters

And then I wound up doing it to someone I care a great deal about. D.C. Is a great man and the whole thing was surreal.

I was beating myself up about it all last night. It'll never happen again. My apologies to D.C. And to all of you.

Again, no one asked me to do it. It was 100% my fuck up. Like I said, I was kind of in shock.
