14 Most Savage Celebrity Martial Artists

5. Joe Rogan

You can't have a serious celebrity martial artists list without having Joe Rogan on it. The comedian and podcast host began his love affair with martial arts as a teenager, when he began training in taekwondo, competing and winning competitions on a regular basis. In fact, his turning side kick is so technically good that former longtime UFC welterweight champion Georges St-Pierre sought him out specifically so he learn from him.

Since then, he's trained in other striking arts, including Muay Thai and kickboxing, but it's his love and support of Brazilian jiu-jitsu that he's most known for. A black belt under Jean Jacques Machado and Eddie Bravo, Rogan's credentials are legit, and he uses his expertise perfectly as one of the main colour commentators for the UFC.
