UFC 314: Bryce Mitchell's After Fight Interview With Joe Rogan Could Be A PR Disaster

UFC firebrand Bryce Mitchell is stepping into the cage against lightweight juggernaut Jean Silva Saturday in Miami at UFC 314—and while the matchup itself is compelling, it's what Mitchell might say afterward that has everyone talking.

The featherweight from Arkansas has become almost as famous for his out-of-cage comments as his in-cage performances. Mitchell has gone viral in recent months for promoting conspiracy theories—from claiming the Earth is flat to saying the U.S. government is hiding the truth about Hitler’s fate.

On his ArkanSanity Podcast" he said that Hitler was a "good guy who fought for his country and that he is someone that he would like to go fishing with."

The comment sparked backlash across MMA media and beyond where Dana White was forced to admit "I've heard a lot of dumb and ignorant shit said over the years, but this is probably the worst," White said in a statement to ESPN. "First of all, when you talk about Hitler, he was responsible for the death of 6 million Jews and it was his intent to completely eliminate Jewish people. And that's a guy you would want to go fishing with?"

Now, with Joe Rogan likely on post-fight interview duty, the stage is set for a potentially wild moment. Rogan himself has dabbled in conspiracy content over the years, making fans even more curious about what kind of exchange might unfold if Mitchell wins and grabs the mic.

Will Mitchell double down? Backtrack? Or say something entirely unexpected? Regardless of the fight outcome, the post-fight moment could be one of the most talked-about segments of the night and maybe finally force White to cut Mitchell.
