They really should have him as some type of analyst, sort of like what Charles Barkley does for TNT, so many people would tune in just to hear what Mike has to say. It is honestly unbelievable that no one (Showtime/HBO) has figured that out yet.

They've must have tried to before though, dude's been a part of the sport for way too long for it not to have crossed anybody's mind

The only problem he'd have (outside of his reputation that probably makes him radioactive) is his lispy voice: Casual fans are notoriously shallow and unfortunately networks cater to them and would consider Tyson's voice "unsuited" for broadcast. Damn shame really.

He was easily the best boxing analyst I've ever heard on the air: He flat out blew away the network dude that was getting paid for commentary. He saw things that everybody else was missing.

How about a show like that Jim Lampley show on HBO where you have someone like. Lampley, Gus Johnson, etc sit in with Tyson and another boxer or two like Roy Jones or Antonio Tarver where they talk about the state of boxing, interview fighters, etc. I think something like that could be good. I wish they would give it a chance.
