Recently, Joe Rogan provocatively posed a hypothetical clash, merging the worlds of MMA and boxing, featuring the UFC superstar Jon Jones and the boxing great Tyson Fury. In a characteristic fashion, the star podcaster dismissed any notion of an equal contest, boldly declaring that the current WBC heavyweight champion would not match the incomparable ‘Jonny Bones’. This proclamation reached the ears of Fury, who retaliated against Rogan with unyielding fervor and cutting remarks.
In the midst of this discussion, he astutely pointed out one of the major concerns he had with the UFC.
Rogan stated, “It’s kinda weird that like the UFC has a weight limit.”
With Shaq towering at 7’1″ and weighing in at 325 lbs, Rogan examined the heaviest division in the UFC, which is the super heavyweight class, encompassing fighters weighing 265 lbs and above.
In light of this, Rogan emphatically stated, “A guy like that could never fight in the UFC. He probably can’t make 265 lbs… If he did he’d be shredded.”
