Joe Rogan: Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao are still high-level
Joe Rogan normally hates it when aging legends resolve to return to the ring for comeback fights.
Nonetheless, the UFC commentator has no problem with Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao rematching as grandfathers 11 years later.
The 58-year-old explained his stance during a podcast with boxing superstar Shakur Stevenson.
“The one fight between guys who retired and got here back that I’m still excited by seeing is him and Manny,” Rogan said, I do know they’re gonna do this on Netflix. I feel that’s still a high-level fight, that’s what I like about it.
“I feel Manny remains to be a high-level fighter. Floyd, even in these exhibitions he’s been doing, he looks great.
“You see him in sparring? Good lord, man, it doesn’t seem like he’s lost a step. Although he’s not the Floyd who fought Canelo or Ricky Hatton, it’s not that much different because he’s not drinking, f—ing his body up, not doing anything silly, he stays in shape and eats right.”
Floyd Mayweather has 3 fights booked for 2026

First up, the 46-year-old will face heavyweight boxing legend Mike Tyson in an exhibition.
They were imagined to clash within the Democratic Republic of Congo on April 25, but in response to reports, Mayweather vs Tyson will now happen at a later, to be confirmed, date.
Earlier this week, Mayweather confirmed he’d take one other exhibition bout after facing ‘Iron Mike’.
