Joe Rogan: Tyson Fury criticizes 'bald-headed midget' over doubting his chances against Jon Jones

Publish date: 2024-05-20

Tyson Fury launched a fiery tirade against Joe Rogan, a prominent podcaster and legendary figure in the UFC. The feud ignited when Rogan boldly asserted that in a raw and unrestricted confrontation with UFC heavyweight champion Jon Jones, Fury would have little chance of emerging victorious. Naturally, these comments struck a nerve with the passionate British boxer.

Rogan has garnered widespread recognition as both a comedian and a prominent figure in the media landscape. Initially making his mark in the realm of Mixed Martial Arts (MMA), Rogan also gained fame as the host of the reality show Fear Factor. Beyond his various roles, he is renowned as a stand-up comedian and a renowned commentator for the UFC. Additionally, Rogan hosts the highly popular 'Joe Rogan Experience' podcast, where he has shared his views on professional wrestling and its scripted nature.

'Bald-headed midget'

The 34-year-old boxing sensation, Fury, vehemently attacked the 55-year-old Rogan for his controversial remarks in his podcast. During the discussion, Rogan asserted that the esteemed Gypsy King would undoubtedly face a severe beating if pitted against the MMA legend and Greatest of All Time (GOAT), Jon Jones. Unsurprisingly, Fury didn't hold back in expressing his outrage at Rogan's comments.

Rogan said, "You want to talk about who’s the baddest man on the planet? If Jon Jones and Tyson Fury are locked into a room, I’m pushing all of my chips on black."

Despite Joe Rogan's history of praising Tyson Fury, he shockingly claimed that the heavyweight champion "doesn't have a f***ing chance in hell of making it out of that room" unless he swiftly lands a knockout blow on Jon Jones. As one of the most dominant figures in the boxing world and widely regarded as one of the greatest fighters of all time, Fury was understandably furious at Rogan's remarks, and he didn't hesitate to make his discontent abundantly known.

Expressing his intense anger, Fury utilized Instagram as a platform to direct his fury at Rogan, resorting to name-calling and referring to him as a "bald-headed midget" during his outburst.

Fury stated, "I heard Joe Rogan say something about me, and I’ve been off all the social media and didn’t reply to that little p***y, little f***ing m****t, bald-headed m****t. I heard him say that Jon Jones could f*** me up if we were in the room together. I don’t think so. Not a man born from a mother could f*** me up, in a room, on our own. Whatever happens in that room, I’d be walking out. Not a f****** problem.”
