🧾 EPISODE SUMMARY

In this episode of The Joe Rogan Experience, featuring Gable Steveson and Joe Rogan, JRE MMA Show #172 with Gable Steveson explores olympic phenom Gable Steveson outlines his path to UFC greatness Joe Rogan sits down with Olympic gold medalist and heavyweight MMA prospect Gable Steveson to trace his journey from wrestling prodigy to NFL experiment, WWE stint, and now a full commitment to mixed martial arts. Steveson explains why true professional outlets for wrestling are limited and how his athleticism and mindset translate to elite MMA potential. A major theme is his close mentorship with Jon Jones—how training with the heavyweight GOAT ignited his desire to fight and shaped his approach to game-planning, discipline, and fame. The conversation also ranges into combat sports history, drug cartels, bull riding, dog stories, and how to stay grounded amid rapid stardom.
