The Youtuber-turned boxer Logan Paul once supported the infamous MMA icon Joe Rogan and backed up his controversial opinions. Logan Paul expressed that the “poor guy” had no fault. According to him, what Joe said had sense, but he lacked the proper vocabulary to convey his message.

Almost 2 years ago, Joe Rogan made the headlines after he gave a controversial comment about video games. In contemporary society, video games are an indispensable aspect. It has evolved way beyond just a hobby or a pass time. It is a solid venue of livelihood for many individuals. But Joe Rogan wasn’t able to comprehend the massive scope and influence it has.

In the podcast, Joe said, “video games are a real problem” because he thinks they can be very addictive, as “they’re simply too fun”. To solidify his claims he brought up the subject of Jiu-Jitsu. He continued that a person can learn Jiu-Jitsu for three years and become a purple belt. 

After getting enough experience, they can teach others the art and earn money from it, or they can even participate in competitive matches to become a grand master. Compared to the Jiu-Jitsu reference, Rogan believed that playing video games for 3 years would not take the players anywhere in life.

The statement stirred a storm as Joe made headlines. People from the Esports community and online content creators started criticizing him for having a narrow perspective. Among many, Logan Paul was one of the few influencers who stood by Rogan’s side. 

Even though Paul’s earlier career was boasted by video games like Fortnite and Pokemon GO, he still supported Joe Rogan and stood by his statement. According to Paul, Rogan was “Factually right” but he “Slipped up with his verbiage”.
