Mike Tyson had his world flipped upside down at the ESPYs … when he learned in real time Shohei Ohtani — the biggest star in Major League Baseball — is a man.
Iron Mike, Jake Paul and DJ Khaled presented the award for best single-game performance at Wednesday’s event … and when El Gallo said the Dodgers slugger sent “his gratitude and appreciation” for the win, Tyson’s jaw dropped.
“Shohei’s a guy?”

Right before the crowd clapped for Ohtani, who was not present for the ceremony, Tyson is heard on the hot mic asking his former boxing opponent if Sho-Time was really a dude.
“Shohei’s a guy?” Tyson asked Paul, who nodded and appeared to say, “yes.”
Look, no one’s forcing the legendary fighter to like baseball … but one would think at some point in Ohtani’s career, he would have heard a thing or two.
As for the award, Ohtani was honored for his Game 4 performance in the 2025 NLCS … when he hit three homers and struck out 10 batters, which got worldwide attention.
Mike must’ve missed it.
