In an old podcast episode of ‘The Joe Rogan Experience’ in 2018, Rogan described what he thought was the scariest version of Mike Tyson.

The UFC color commentator said, “Tyson you saw abs when he came out of prison. Remember that? When he fought Peter McNeeley. Dude, he was prison jacked. That was like maybe the scariest Tyson ever. When they finally released him and all he had been doing in jail. I don’t think he could box in jail, so I think all he was just lifting weights. Remember, he was super duper jacked when he got out of jail… That is f****** terrifying!”
