Joe Rogan Raises Concerns About Mike Tyson’s Potential Death in Clash with Jake Paul
In a shocking turn of events, Joe Rogan has raised serious concerns about the upcoming clash between former undisputed heavyweight champion Mike Tyson and YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul. The two will face off in a controversial bout in Texas on July 20, with boxing fans expressing outrage over the massive age difference between the fighters.
Tyson, 57, will be 31 years older than Paul when they step into the ring, leading to fears about the potential risks involved in such a matchup. Rogan, during a recent episode of his podcast, voiced his worries about the worst-case scenario of Tyson suffering serious harm during the fight.
Despite his concerns, Rogan did not rule out the possibility of Tyson recapturing some of his former glory and delivering a knockout blow to Paul. The UFC commentator highlighted Tyson’s power and physical abilities, suggesting that even at 57, the former champ could still pose a significant threat to his younger opponent.
Initially thought to be an exhibition match with headgear, the bout has been sanctioned as a professional fight by the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation, with eight two-minute rounds scheduled. Paul’s manager expressed gratitude for the opportunity to have the fight sanctioned and confirmed both fighters’ desire for a definitive outcome.
Tyson, who returned to the ring in 2020 for an exhibition bout with Roy Jones Jr., will look to prove he still has what it takes to compete at the highest level. Meanwhile, Paul, coming off a viral first-round knockout in his last fight, will be looking to make a statement against the boxing legend.
The clash between Tyson and Paul has generated significant buzz and controversy, with fans eagerly anticipating the outcome of this unexpected matchup. Stay tuned for more updates as the fight date approaches.
