Jamie Foxx interested in Mike Tyson role

If Mike Tyson has his way, he'll get Oscar-winning actor Jamie Foxx to tackle his life story in an upcoming cinematic version of his life. Foxx, who won the Oscar for his portrayal of Ray Charles is by far the best prospect to cover the role of Mike Tyson. For one, they have very similar appearances although Tyson was absolutely enormous in his heyday, so Foxx would have to add a little more bulk. I hope they lock him in for this role, it would definitely be worth watching...

Here is a clip of Jamie Foxx impersonating Mike Tyson in his stand up, I Might Need Security (The whole clip is hilarious, but for the Tyson part, fast forward to the 5 Minute 30 Second Mark)
