Mike Tyson as a boxing analyst

Mike is very intelligent to be quite honest, though it's not difficult to see how he can fool you.

 

tyson would be a awesome analyst....and its cable..you can get away with ..an occasional slip on words......

in fact ..it would help ..gettin people tuned into boxing aswell....

since hes probably the most well known ...world wide..that can be an analyst...

id watch..for sure..becuase ..the way he breaks down stuff...is like when he was in his prime.....as a fighter...his mind still works...at a fighters pace..he might not have the physical attributes he once had..but the knowledge is priceless..

hopefully one day.....we will see this....

 

You neither.

 

I would love to get Tyson insight on some of these fights, I mean the man may have a weird sounding voice, but he knows his game! I say give the man a shot and let's see him go.

 

I meant "you" in general not you in particular bro sorry for the confusion.:yep But yes Mike is a man of MANY faces.

 

No problem - I get you now - I misunderstood

Yea Mike.. where do you start...

 

That's the million dollar question right there. :good

 

They'd probably get great ratings tho.

 

actually even though he's got a ton of issues, there's a smart guy in there. his wires are crossed for whatever reason.

 

Tyson did the famous Simon Brown/Pettway fight.

You can catch the wrap up here, but the whole fight can be found (in segments on YouTube).

and for fun, here's the knockout round (5:20 mark). Still vicious:

mike did work in the 80's as a commentator and he did just fine they should bring him back

 

He seemed to enjoy doing the Pettway-Brown commentary. Got excited a few times. Shame he never did it after that.

 

Mike could be great at it. All he needs to do is express an interest. He would be a big draw as color guy.

 

I thought the same thing. I really liked Shannon's commentary. He's a pretty colorful guy who's not afraid to poke fun at himself. One of the commentators made a joke about his weight and he took it and ran with it. Totally cool guy and knows his boxing.

 

Definitely. I was thrilled for him when he won his title a couple years back. It's hard not to like him.
