The fight between the former world heavyweight champion Mike Tyson and the influencer Jake Paul, scheduled for November 15th, continues to generate heated debates in the fight world. Amid doubts about the viability of the fight, UFC commentator Joe Rogan defended 'Iron's' ability to surprise his younger opponent.

During 'The Rogan Experience', Rogan highlighted that despite Tyson's advanced age, the former boxer's knockout power remains intact.

“58 years is 58 years, no matter what you are taking or what they are doing for you. But Mike Tyson at 58 years old, not just anyone. He can still knock you out and send you to another dimension if he catches you by surprise,” said Rogan.

The fight between Tyson and Paul was initially scheduled for this year, but had to be postponed due to the former champion's health problem. Expectations for the clash are high, but there is also criticism due to the difference in age and experience between the two athletes.

It is worth mentioning that Brazil will also be represented on the event card. The YouTuber Whindersson Nunes will have another boxing fight when he faces Indian Neeraj Goyat.
