Tyson has just finished a live interview on Talksport with Rodney Marsh & Paul Breen-Turner.
It was the most pointless interview ever!
What is the point in interviewing, arguably the second most famous fighter in history & not talking about boxing? :x
The only mention of fighting was when he said he wanted to fight Tarver!
What a waste of an interview!!!!!!!

They mentioned it on the breakfast show this morning. Apparently there was some stipulation that they couldn't talk about his 'past'.
Although if he was being interviewed on the strength of his 'future' he should realise he's probably not worth a slot on a long-wave radio show hosted by a couple of booze-addled ex-footballers.

tyson is not the best of interviewee's.
rambles quietly a lot and he did plenty of that in the interview. he mentioned the tarver fight when asked about if he would return to the ring.
seems like the money on offer has tempted him back for that one.

I know someone who was a documentary maker with the BBC, and he met Tyson over in Vegas and spent about two weeks hanging out with him.
He said that Tyson was absolutely fascinating to talk to, and that he was very open about everything and much more intelligent than given credit for, but Tyson's business advisers absolutely refused to have anything on the record, and totally controlled what was printed about him.
When you are as famous as Mike Tyson, the truth is, your life is not your own.

Having met Tyson, I would say he is one of the most intelligent boxers I have ever met.
Very articulate and certainly a graduate of the university of life.
