Mike Tyson Shakes It Off, Wears Skintight Pants on 'Lip Sync Battle'

The former heavy weight champion is so into the dance that he forgets to rap the lyrics of Salt-n-Pepa's 'Push It' in the clip.

Mike Tyson is the next star channeling his inner singer in an upcoming episode of "Lip Sync Battle". In a preview for the new episode, the former heavy weight champion is lip-syncing Salt-N-Pepa's hit song "Push It" in a battle against Terry Crews. 

Showing his goofy side, Tyson wears skintight black pants and a red and yellow jacket similar to the ones Salt-N-Pepa wore in their 1986 music video. He dances so enthusiastically that he forgets to rap the lyrics of the classic jam, while his competitor Crews and host LL Cool J can't help moving their bodies to the upbeat track. 

The new episode of "Lip Sync Battle" airs Thursday, April 23 at 10/9c on Spike TV. The show, which is based on one of the favorite segments on "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon", has become a new hit series since it launched in early April. Jimmy Fallon, John Krasinski and Stephen Merchant executive produce the show.
