The Mike Tyson vs. Jake Paul fight has captured attention from different corners of the world. Excitement or concern remains the reason why many people have reacted to the fight. Nevertheless, it remains one of the most anticipated fights of this year. As such, UFC commentator Joe Rogan has also chimed in with his opinion about the highly anticipated fight. 

Rogan once spoke about this matchup when Paul previously expressed his intent to fight Tyson. At the time, he stated that Tyson was still a beast and still trained regularly. Hence, Rogan’s stance has not changed, and he still believes that the heavyweight legend can defeat Paul.

Jake Paul is probably a little scared. As much as he thinks that he is the younger guy. That's still Mike Tyson.

Joe Rogan spoke about the fight with Coleman Hughes and said everyone would root for Tyson. In addition, he spoke about how Tyson trained with the legendary MMA trainer Rafael Cordeiro over the years. Teaming up with someone like Cordeiro can give Tyson a strategic edge in the upcoming fight. One must understand that Jake Paul has only fought in ten professional bouts and does match up to Tyson’s experience.

Rogan then began to see some clips of Tyson hitting the mitts with Cordeiro. Furthermore, Rogan mentioned how Cordeiro has a scared look on his face when Mike Tyson lands punches, even though he has trained with elite fighters. Hence, the UFC commentator is betting on Tyson to win the upcoming fight. The only concern for Tyson is his age. Only time will tell if Tyson defies the odds and shock the world.

Iron Mike has always delivered a stellar performance in his fights throughout his career. However, the former champion has always doubted himself. He once again affirmed it during an interview with Fox News. The legendary boxer told host Sean Hannity about the doubts he held in his mind. As such, Tyson admitted to being scared of what was about to come but this is what kept him motivated. 

Hence, Tyson is confident about his skills and believes that his speed could overwhelm Paul. Mike Tyson has said a lot about his upcoming fight. As such, he has to overcome an age problem to defeat Paul. This is not an easy task as ‘The Problem Child’ holds every advantage in terms of athleticism. Nevertheless, Tyson has the utmost confidence in him to overcome the odds.
