Joe Rogan, the UFC commentator, heaped praises on the YouTube star Logan Paul for his achievements in combat sports in the recent episode of his famous ‘The Joe Rogan Experience’ podcast.

Rogan is a person who has watched combat sports very closely in his life. He even has a fair share of mixed martial arts, as he was an amateur kickboxer in his early years. Also, Rogan has been the voice of UFC’s major events for over a decade now. Hence, he has the ability to recognize a good athlete.

That being said, the UFC commentator recently lauded Logan Paul’s athleticism and his share in the combat sport. From making vlogs on Youtube to sharing the boxing ring with legend Floyd Mayweather, Ohio’s very own, Paul has done it all in his career. Moreover, to add it to his cap, Logan also appeared on WrestleMania 38 recently.

While talking about Paul in a JRE episode with stand-up comedians Shane Gillis, Mark Normand, and Ari Shaffir, Rogan said, He (Logan Paul) has done a lot of sh*t, man. I mean, you gotta give the guy props. He is not lazy. He fought Floyd Mayweather in a boxing match. I don’t care if he is 50 pounds heavier than him. It’s Floyd f**king Mayweather.”

After acknowledging Rogan’s praises, Paul took to his official Instagram account to respond to it. He made a funny video asking his friend Mike Majlak to humble him, as Rogan’s praises astounded him, and uploaded it on his Instagram stories. Logan said, “Bro, they were gassing me up on Rogan. And my ego is kinda inflated. Would you mind humbling me?”

However, in the rematch with Woodley, Jake earned a straight knockout win, making his record 5-0. Meanwhile, Logan is 0-1 in professional boxing and has a draw against Mayweather in an exhibition match.

Pointing at his knockout, win over Woodley, Rogan in the same episode said, “He’s got the power, out of the two of them. Like, Logan is a really good athlete. But he is not as good of a boxer. But Jake Paul on top of being a better boxer, he’s got like legit power.”
