The renowned commentator, Joe Rogan, schooled the Ohio boxer on his podcast for making unreasonable remarks.

He said, “He offered Chris Rock and Will Smith 40 million dollars. Jake Paul did. Even if he did, Chris Rock’s is very small. It’s not fair right, the difference is like 60 pounds.”

A look at what happened between Will Smith and Chris Rock

In the 94th Academy Award ceremony, while hosting the Oscars, the comedian Chris Rock made jokes about the hairstyle of Smith’s wife, Jada Pinkett Smith.

This didn’t sit well with Will Smith. In the heat of the moment, he got to the stage and slapped Chris Rock.

Initially, it appeared to be a staged act as the audience at Dolby Theatre laughed at it, but later, when Will Smith got back to his seat and shouted at Chris Rock, everything became clear.

Interestingly, ‘The Problem Child’ added more spice to this drama, and he offered a celebrity crossover to settle the scores between them.
