Joe Rogan Says He Helped Jon Jones Get Stem Cell Treatment for Hip Ahead of Sought UFC Return

Rogan says he arranged stem cell therapy for Jones to support a comeback the UFC disputes.

Overview

  • On his podcast, Rogan said he connected Jones with Ways2Well for hip stem cell treatment and reported Jones feels better despite ongoing arthritis.
  • Jones had reversed last summer’s retirement to target the June White House Freedom 250 card but was left off the announced lineup.
  • Dana White said Jones was not considered for the event and characterized him as retired due to the condition of his hip.
  • After his exclusion, Jones publicly asked for a UFC release, though reporting indicates the promotion is unlikely to grant it as figures like Nakisa Bidarian urge they do.
  • Rogan also voiced support for higher fighter pay during the conversation as Jones continues pressing for a return to competition.
