Mike Tyson is usually known for knocking people out in the boxing ring, but this might just be the highlight of his career.

He is the latest celebrity to take part in Lip Sync Battle and he's replaced his boxing gloves with some leather trousers.

His energetic performance to Salt N Pepa's 'Push It' has the audience and host LL Cool J on their feet.

And the boxer seems to be enjoying the dancing so much, he forgets to lip sync the words!

The US series is based on the skit from Jimmy Fallon's Tonight Show, which sees the presenter and a host of celebrity guests mime along to pop songs in head-to-head battles.
