LeBron James was enthralled by Snoop Dogg’s boxing commentary on Saturday

Like many sports fans last night across the country, LeBron James was tuned into the bizarre pay per view event featuring the bout between legendary fighters Mike Tyson and Roy Jones Jr. as the main event. However, LeBron’s biggest takeaway wasn’t the knockout of his NBA brethren Nate Robinson at the hands of YouTube star Jake Paul, but the commentary by Snoop Dogg.

Snoop is a huge sports fan, particularly a huge fan of the Lakers, where he has never been shy to show off his knowledge and his opinion. But last night he took things to a new level, becoming a full-on analyst during the fight and earning rave reviews from LeBron and others like Stephen A. Smith.

Snoop’s commentary and jokes were the talk of the fight, as two fighters well past their athletic heyday were the featured act, Mike Tyson was apparently doing some Snoop Dogg approved activities on fight night.
