Mike Tyson may be out of boxing, but the heavyweight champion of the world took off the gloves and started punching yesterday. His target was Sarah Palin. But it looks like he's the one who was knocked down a peg or two.
Apparently Big Mike's no happier than Todd Palin with the news that writer Joe McGinniss' new book claims Sarah had sex with former NBA star Glen Rice. However, unlike the politician's hubs, Tyson is all for the idea that the former Alaska governor likes her men tall, dark, and able to bounce a basketball. So why is he giving the Tea Party darling grief?
She picked a nice, gentle man like Glen Rice, a docile man, or so says Tyson. I'm not sure I'd agree a guy once charged with beating the snot out of a man he found in his estranged wife's closet is "mellow" or "docile" (yes, that was Rice, although charges were later dropped), but I guess when you're known for biting someone's ear off, you have a different definition for gentility. But Tyson has a suggestion for Palin should she ever decide to cross the interracial dating divide again.
In just about the "classiest" radio station clip you'll hear ... ever, Iron Mike thinks Sarah should have had sex with Dennis Rodman because he would have "pushed her guts up in the back of her head." Ah yes, what an image, Mike: the woman who worked all the way up to earning the official Republican party nod for vice presidential candidate having sex with a "womb-shifter." Excuse me while I go throw up now.
I'm no Sarah Palin fan, but talking about a woman having a "big old black stallion ripping" into them is crude, crass, and more than a little sexist. So much for a transformed Mike Tyson who has improved himself since the death of his daughter and birth of his son. He's still playing dirty.
You can listen to his whole commentary here, if you can stomach it (please send the kids out of the room).

Did Tyson just manage to make the Glen Rice/Sarah Palin scandal actually seem like the BETTER option?
