20 Joe Rogan Experience Episodes You Must Listen From 2020

6. Roy Jones Jr. - Episode =1548

It's crazy that in 2020, one of the biggest boxing events of the year involved Mike Tyson and Roy Jones Jr. Despite both men being way past their prime, combat sports fans were utterly fascinated by the bout from the very get-go.

Although a lot of the hype was around Tyson returning to a boxing ring, more longtime fans knew that his opponent would be no walk in the park. Roy Jones Jr. might not have the same adulation as Iron Mike, but his skills as a boxer are undeniable. Thankfully Rogan had him on the JRE so more casual fans could get to know the former WBA heavyweight champion of the world.

Rogan and Jones talk about his fascinating career, his mindset to become one of the greatest to ever do it and, of course, the fight that he was set to have against Tyson which went to a "draw".

Just in case you've never seen Roy Jones Jnr. in his prime, check out this video here. You're welcome.
