Joe Rogan backs Jake Paul to beat \u201cterrifying\u201d Mike Tyson Spotify: Joe Rogan\/YouTube: ShowTime SportsJoe Rogan believes you can\u2019t bet against Jake Paul in his upcoming fight with Mike Tyson, but says the 57-year-old still looks like he has \u201cterrifying\u201d power in his punches. Back in March, Jake Paul and Mike Tyson shocked the internet and boxing world when it was announced that they\u2019d actually be fighting. The pair had, a few years ago, teased coming to blows but played things down by apparently demanding massive fees. They will finally be facing off in July, and they\u2019ve both started dishing out trash talk in trademark style. Jake has said that one of them will have to \u201cdie\u201d when the fight is all said and done, while \u2018Iron\u2019 Mike is urging the \u2018Problem Child\u2019 to not get cold feet before fight night. Despite Tyson\u2019s historic boxing career, the 31-year age gap between them has seen the YouTuber-turned-boxer tipped as the favorite. Joe Rogan, who has praised Jake many times before, isn\u2019t surprised by that but believes Tyson still looks like an incredibly scary fighter. \u201cA legitimate boxer? Yes. People mocked me when I was saying that before but now I think people are coming around. The way I look at it, I say if this kid wasn\u2019t a YouTuber, if he wasn\u2019t some guy you know when he was 16 years old on YouTube and you just saw him box, and you saw him knockout former UFC champions, beat legitimate boxer, you\u2019d say this kid can f**king fight. Nothing he\u2019s doing looks wrong,\u201d Rogan said during episode 2148 of the JRE Podcast. \u201cHe\u2019s fighting well, he looks good. The fact that he\u2019s willing to fight Tyson, even if Tyson is 57, just the fact he\u2019s willing to take a chance on Mike Tyson not being able to do what he used to do.\u201d Rogan told his guest, Sebastian Maniscalco, that Tyson \u201chasn\u2019t lost everything,\u201d and that\u2019s clear from his training videos. \u201cYou see him hit those pads, he has not lost everything. He\u2019s still not normal, but he\u2019s still like a professional Heavyweight boxer. He\u2019s still terrifying. You never bet against a 27-year-old fighting a 58-year-old.\u201d The UFC commentator hasn\u2019t been shy in believing Tyson can get the job done, and has previously said he looks \u201cterrifying\u201d despite his old age. So, he\u2019ll be an interested spectator on fight night.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
