In Boxing, it is difficult to point to one guy and say he is the greatest boxing talent that ever existed. On the other hand, it is different in MMA. Many fight experts, including Dana White, Joe Rogan and Demetrious Johnson, believe it is Jon Jones, and so do most of the fight fans. However, boxing has numerous fighters who can be deemed the best talent. There were fighters like Rocky Marciano, Muhammad Ali, Mike Tyson, Sugar Ray Robinson and many more who could be the best boxing talent. However, Joe Rogan has a definite answer on the best boxing talent ever.

He said, “There is a video of him throwing combinations on the back. And he’s probably like 18 years old. And it’s like …., and you are just watching ridiculous, ruthless, violent combinations like no one has ever thrown before. No one has ever thrown that before. I don’t give a f*** about Joe Lewis. Muhammad Ali was the greatest. Yes, a great cultural figure and a great boxer for his era. I think Mike Tyson was the greatest freak that ever existed. I don’t think there has ever been anybody like that.“

Rogan stated his opinion on who he thinks is the best boxer ever. He also references the Marvis Frasier fight, where Tyson knocked out Frasier in a devastating fashion. Rogan feels that the Frasier fight was the closest to people watching a murder on National Television.

After retirement and a stint in prison, Mike Tyson now hosts his podcast, where he brings on fellow combat sports legends to talk about their experiences. He hosted The Undertaker, Henry Cejudo, Canelo Alvarez and Khabib Nurmagomedov in his podcast.

Nate Diaz will debut against Youtuber turned boxing star Jake Paul in August. Dana White and Sean Strickland did not have nice things to say about the bout. However, Joe Rogan has a different opinion.

He said, “Nate is a very good boxer, and I want to see him get in there. I want to see him make money while he can too. Diaz fight is a big name and a big money fight, but he’s (Jake Paul) a lot bigger than Nate. Jake Paul can crack 100 per cent.”

Rogan wants to see Nate Diaz test out his boxing skills and make more money before the Stockton native retires from the sport. Recently, Diaz’s teammate Bobby Green talked about how the boxing skills of Nate Diaz are superior to his Jiu-Jitsu skills. Rogan is excited to see the former UFC superstar enter the boxing ring.
