Very, very tough fight - Hear Joe Rogan's reaction to Anderson Silva vs. ‘legit’ Jake Paul

Count Joe Rogan amongst those eager to see Jake Paul take on Anderson Silva in the boxing ring on Oct. 29.

The matchup is rumored to take place in Phoenix after former UFC middleweight champion and pound-for-pound great Silva recently received a boxing license to fight in Arizona.

Silva, 47, is 2-0 since returning to boxing last year, with back-to-back victories over former WBC middleweight champion Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. and former UFC light heavyweight titleholder Tito Ortiz, finishing the latter via KO.

‘The Spider’ is widely considered one of the greatest strikers in MMA history and one of the toughest fights available for Paul right now, according to Rogan.
