Mike Tyson
By John J. Raspanti, Doghouse Boxing: Former undisputed heavyweight champion Mike Tyson’s one-man show is a step closer to Broadway. Producer Eric Nederlander has been talking to Tyson about bringing his wildly successful show, “Mike Tyson: Undisputed Truth, “to the Big Apple according to sources.

Tyson candidly discusses his demons during his show, including his volatile marriage to first wife Robin Givens.

The former champion also talks about his time in prison for rape (a charge he continues to deny) and his admission to a psych ward after his 1997 Evander Holyfield ear-biting incident.

The show debuted at the Las Vegas’ MGM Grand, where it played six well-received nights. Spotted in the audience on opening night was another boxing legend by the name of Sugar Ray Leonard.

"The plan has been to see how the show played, then tour like Chazz Palminteri and 'A Bronx Tale,'" a source said. Tyson and his wife Kiki penned the show last year
