Polarizing middleweight contender, Joe Pyfer has admitted he was less than pleased with the commentary on display from veteran caller, Joe Rogan during his UFC 316 win — claiming the New Jersey native was a little “hard” in his assessment of the performance.

Pyfer, who returned over the weekend in Newark, managed to rally though a late uptake from former interim title challenegr, Kelvin Gastelum to land a unanimous decision (29-28, 29-27, 30-27) win over The Ultimate Fighter winner, landing his second straight win on the bounce.
