He often provides his input on the recent issues regarding these sports, and lately, his comments about Michael Jordan sparked a controversy among the fans. There is a never-ending debate among the NBA fans, on who’s the true G.O.A.T. Some vouch for LeBron while others believe Jordan is the undisputed king.

For LeBron’s fans, it’s his longevity that makes him the best, while for Jordan’s, the efficiency he maintained throughout his career, makes him the best. Rogan is a big fan of both of them, and he claimed, as a martial artist, LeBron would’ve been a force to be reckoned with.
