her Instagram account<\/a> on Saturday night, Nakamoto shared a screen shot of a conversation with Rogan, in which the comedian turned commentator told her that the treatment she needs to recover from her lingering knee injury will be covered in full.<\/p>\nJoe Rogan also added that he’d cover her travel expenses.<\/p>\n

“So …this happened today. I\u2019m struggling to find the words. I\u2019ve been trying to make a comeback for almost 6 years now. I\u2019ve come close a few times. But I kept having difficulty with my knee. There\u2019s not much to be down with a grade 3 lesion on a meniscus besides stem cell therapy. I didn\u2019t have $30,000 so I did the best that I could, but I still always came up short. And then this happens today. I\u2019m still in shock. Thank you Joe Rogan. See you soon Dr. Riordan!”<\/em> – Miriam Nakamoto on Instagram.<\/p>\nNakamoto and Rogan are quite close. In fact, she’s previously been a guest on the UFC commentator’s popular Joe Rogan Experience podcast.<\/p>\n
While there’s no telling how she’ll bounce back from her debilitating knee injury, a return to previous form certainly seems possible. If that’s the case, her rivals on the Invicta roster should most definitely be on high alert. The Muay Thai specialist, who is an eight-time champ in the Art of Eight Limbs, is 2-1 as a pro mixed martial artist.<\/p>\n
