"I'm old as #####," Rogan said with a laugh. "If I was competing still when the UFC was around, I probably would have done something ... when I stopped fighting, it was in 1989, that was the last kickboxing fight I had. And there was nothing, there was no money in it. And I was getting headaches just from sparring."
