          Dude said it himself on the documentary. Either he needs a lot of money or no money, he's never had it in the middle.

          I still think he would be amazing for HBO, they need to at least give him a try before signing a contract. The guy knows more about boxing than most people. When it comes to technique and history, Mike is perfect for this job.

            People would still pay him for appearances and all that.

              Mike is a ****ing Boxing Encyclopedia.

              Dude may not know not much else, but he knows the sport.

              At times I think he can be surprisingly well spoken too.

              Would be a great replacement for Lewis

                Well as a great former heavyweight champ, he gets paid for just making appearances, so that is probably where the money is coming from.

                  I recall watching a news piece on Ali and it said that he went broke but makes it year to year by selling autographs and licensing his name and image.

                    Tyson will never truly be broke, he'll always be able to make money on appearance fees

                      Mike Tyson told the ladies of The View that he's "totally broke" after excessive spending and having "a lot of fun."

                      The retired boxer says he is now struggling to make ends meet and is living paycheck to paycheck. However, he's absolutely content living with his third wife Lakiha ****er and their 16-month-old daughter, Milan.
                      Tyson says:

                      "I'm totally destitute and broke. But I have an awesome life, I have an awesome wife who cares about me. I'm totally broke. I had a lot of fun. It (going broke) just happened. I'm very grateful. I don't deserve to have the wife that I have; I don't deserve the kids that I have, but I do, and I'm very grateful."
                      Here Mike, have this....
