Sunday's edition of New York's Daily News reported a story that Boxingtalk faithful have known about for some time: Mike Tyson will start what he hopes will be a new career as a boxing analyst during the international broadcast of Hasim Rahman's August 12, 2006 WBC heavyweight title defense against Oleg Maskaev. Although, you didnt hear it in the Daily News first, we at Boxingtalk want to applaud the newspaper for crediting the source of the scoop, unlike most of our 'competitors', who have been ignoring us for years. So thanks to Bob Raissman and the News, who wrote that Bob Arum, "quickly picked up on Tyson's message and contacted Greg Leon, a friend of the former champ who is the publisher of Boxingtalk." Arum added, "I just got a hunch this thing is going to work." The Bobfather certainly remembers where he heard it first!!
