Joe Rogan covers Miriam Nakamoto’s medical expenses to help her make comeback

Muay Thai fighter Miriam Nakamoto had just begun her MMA career in 2012 when it was derailed a year later due to a knee injury. Now 42 years old, “The Queen of Mean” remains sidelined, still unsure about a comeback.

It wasn’t until UFC analyst Joe Rogan offered to shoulder all of her medical expenses for treatment, giving a bit of optimism for a return in the near future.

Nakamoto revealed the news via a recent Instagram post.

So ...this happened today. I’m struggling to find the words. I’ve been trying to make a comeback for almost 6 years now.
